Three years ago, if you were one of the women who had been victimized by Keith Raniere, the man seemed untouchable. Raniere was the leader of the cult-like self help group NXIVM.\n\nOn October 27th, that all changed.\n\nIn a U.S. federal courtroom, Keith Raniere was sentenced to 120 years\u2014having been convicted of a slew of crimes. During the trial and sentencing, victims came forward about how the self-professed empowerment \u201cvanguard\u201d had turned some of his followers into sex slaves and branded them with his initials. \n\nJosh Bloch investigated Raniere in his podcast UNCOVER: Escaping NXIVM. He joined Jayme to break down the case. This is an encore of their October conversation.
