Her wealth helped finance the group, known as Nxivm according to her recent plea. According to New York Times , on Friday afternoon, Ms. Bronfman, pleaded guilty in Federal District Court in Brooklyn to charges arising from an indictment filed last year against her and several other followers of the group’s leader, Keith Raniere. “I am truly remorseful,” Ms. Bronfman told Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis as she pleaded guilty to conspiring to conceal and harbor an undocumented immigrant for financial gain, and fraudulent use of identification. “I wanted to do good in the world.” View this post on Instagram #gofijigo #olympics #fijirugby A post shared by Clare Bronfman (@clarebronfman) on Aug 7, 2016 at 12:47pm PDT Moments later, the group’s longtime bookkeeper, Kathy Russell, 61, pleaded guilty to one count of visa fraud. Nxivm billed itself as a self-help organization, offering workshops that promised self-fulfillment. Some women were recruited into a secret order within the group, branded on the pelvis with a symbol containing Mr. Raniere’s initials, and coerced into having sex with him, prosecutors said. Ms. Bronfman, who is accused of funding the cult with $100 Million, is the youngest daughter of Edgar Bronfman, the former chairman of Seagram Company who died in 2013.
