Prosecutors asked a federal judge in Brooklyn, New York, if they could present a trove of new evidence that top NXIVM members took part in an illegal campaign contribution scheme to a presidential primary campaign for “political influence,” court documents reveal.
The alleged scheme was brought to light amid the ongoing high-profile case involving NXIVM, the purported self-help organization based in Albany, New York, which gained infamy in 2018 due to egregious sex-trafficking charges involving sex slaves.
While the court filing didn’t mention the individual by name, NXIVM ex-publicist and whistleblower Frank Parlato confirmed to The Epoch Times that the scheme was aiding Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign.
According to the filing, the government intends to introduce witness testimony and documents at trial that demonstrate that in 2007, the defendants and their co-conspirators “were involved in an illegal scheme to exceed contribution limits to a presidential primary campaign.”
“The Clintons wanted money from them [NXIVM] and as far as I know, their main interest was to get people in jail,” he said. “There was one woman who was talking about Raniere’s underage-sex activities and they wanted her jailed, so that they could stop her from talking.”
Parlato told The Epoch Times in a phone interview previously that the group’s members met with the Clintons on several occasions; he himself didn’t attend. Parlato first revealed the story about the group’s alleged schemes.
