Dozens of accusers who are saying they were victims of sex trafficking and forced labor have filed a class action lawsuit against the leaders of NXIVM, a purported personal development organization whose leader has been convicted of charges including racketeering, sex trafficking and child pornography.
The group, which was characterized by Brooklyn federal prosecutors as a “sex cult,” caught national attention after numerous members, including TV actress Allison Mack and an heiress to the Seagram‘s liquor company, were charged with crimes in connection with the group’s activities.
The suit was filed Tuesday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York by attorneys from the Philadelphia law firm Kohn Swift & Graf. The complaint names 19 defendants, including Mack, the group’s leader Keith Raniere, and both Clare and Sara Bronfman, who are Seagram heiresses.
According to the docket, U.S. District Judge Eric R. Komitee of the Eastern District of New York has been assigned to the case. No attorneys have entered an appearance yet for the defendants.

I doubt they dragged them into the secret base by force. Maybe they did some psycho voodoo-hoodoo and appealed to the base female nature, but at the end those female wannabe Hollywood stars willingly let themselves be branded.
