NXIVM leader took women on ‘creepy’ late night walks: Neighbour
A former neighbour of NXIVM sex cult leader, Keith Raniere, exclusively revealed to RadarOnline.com that the founder would go out for late at night walks with women.
The neighbour, who lived in close proximity to Raniere in upstate New York, described the cult founder as a night owl who received frequent visitors.
“I would come home at work around 11 p.m. and Keith would be walking with women in the neighbourhood,” the neighbour explained.
The eyewitness claimed it appeared Raniere was had authority over the women – from what they wore to the pace in which they’d walk.
“You could tell that they honored this guy because if they were out walking with him, they would walk behind him,” the neighbour told Radar. “He was definitely the man in lead.”
The nearby resident added that he noticed the women wore colourful scarves for Raniere.
“They represented different ranks of the women involved,” the neighbour said. “The scarves would be red, black, all colours.”
The womens’ appearances seemed to be of high importance to Raniere. Similar to the government’s claims that Raniere and his alleged slave master, Allison Mack, starved women, the bystander said he noticed every female on Raniere’s property looked similar.

“Their profiles were pretty much the same,” the neighbour recounted. “They were all very thin with long hair.”
Some of the women who showed up at Raniere’s condominiums – he owned three on the same street in Halfmoon, N.Y., according to the neighbour – appeared much younger than the 57-year-old prisoner.
“Once in a while you could see what could have been considered young ladies in high school or college,” said the neighbour.
What’s more is the middle-aged NXIVM leader greeted every woman the same.
“Every time he met someone there was always a hug and a kiss,” the neighbour said.
As Radar readers know, Raniere, Allison Mack and three others have been arrested and charged with racketeering for allegedly operating the NXIVM sex slave ring.
Mack previously confessed that she branded members’ flesh with what has since been speculated are Mack and Raniere’s initials.
The neighbour has since moved out of the neighbourhood, but said he witnessed Raniere’s creepy ways for “years.” In addition to the way they dressed and walked, the eyewitness even said Raniere made his cult members drive him around.
“A car would pull up at one of the three condos and it would always be one of the girls picking him up,” the neighbour continued.
Raniere is currently behind bars awaiting trial, which could take months to begin. Mack has been under house arrest in California since March, but was recently approved to attend school and church.
