After the capture of sex cult NXIVM’s leader Keith Raniere in Mexico on March 26, and the discovery of Smallville star Allison Mack’s alleged involvement with the group, former member, Susan Done, is sharing shocking secrets about the organization with HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY. Susan believes the media’s coverage of the sex cult, which included a 20/20 report and segment on Dr. Oz, really helped give its victims the national attention they deserved. However, it was when Dynasty actress, Catherine Oxenberg, finally spoke out in Oct. 2017 that the story really went viral. Catherine claimed that her 26-year-old daughter, India, had been taken by the group, and issued a public plea for help in her safe return.
“By then, it could no longer be ignored,” Susan explains to HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY. After Catherine came forward, horrific details about the cult slowly started coming out. Members who’ve gotten out allege that they’ve been starved on 500-800 calories-a-day diets, treated like slaves, and forced to have sex with Keith. Allison, 35, who starred as Chloe Sullivan on Smallville from 2001-2011, is allegedly the second in command to Keith, and is expected to be the next person arrested following Keith’s capture earlier this week. Allison allegedly started a second sect within VXIVM called DOS. Members of DOS have allegedly been branded with a painful mark made of Keith and Allison’s initials. They’ve also allegedly been blackmailed not to leave the cult with threats of the release of incriminating information about themselves and/or their families.
Of Keith’s arrest, Susan admits, “The first few days I was in shock, we’ve waited so long for it to happen. Shortly after I left NXIVM, I was made aware that the New York Attorney General wanted to talk to me and a few other people about the illegal stuff that had been happening. And this was years ago. We thought something would come out of that and nothing did.” The group’s leader was charged with sex trafficking and forced labor conspiracy on March 26.
“It’s a huge relief, but I don’t believe he’s the only one that will be arrested,” Susan says. “In the complaint, they refer to two co-conspirators, and I believe Allison Mack is conspirator number one. From what I’ve heard — from the people that have been involved in DOS and have now left — is that Keith was at the top and Allison was his top madam. She was referred to as ‘the madam’ and had a pyramid of masters and slaves,” Susan shockingly reveals.
“I was told she loved to be called madam,” the former member adds. “I watched the video of the raid that happened in Mexico and I was shocked by how much Allison has changed. I didn’t even recognize her at first, she just looks so terrible. Dazed, confused, and very thin. I expect she’ll be arrested next.”
