WTF is on my Mind?!

(NXIVM) Letter to the Inside - Part 1 of 4


Listen Later

In this Episode: (PART 1 of 4) In March 2018 I recognized Keith Raniere was about to be arrested. Along with my fellow whistleblowers, we had spent the previous 9 months trying to get people out of NXIVM. I made one final attempt en masse to get my friends (true believers) to wake up before Raniere was arrested. I wrote a long letter to a select few friends on ‘the inside’ on March 10th, 2018 - 16 days before Keith Raniere was arrested in a Mexican Villa on March 26th, 2018. I sent it mostly to lower ranks because I knew that if I included the top of the organization, the higher ranks would have blocked it. I needed my friends who received the letter to have time to absorb what I was saying before they had to report it up the chain of command. This was my desperate attempt to try and wake my friends up before the arrests began. ~ Mark Vicente 

Sections of the letter: Grab a glass of wine, An Unspoken Credo, The Illuminati, Pam’s Death, Sudden Disappearance?, Multiple Attempts 

I began my  "Whistleblower Blog' on my website a few days before the New York Times broke the explosive article on October 17th, 2017 (Exactly 5 years before 'The VOW - Part II airs on HBO) It was my attempt to leave breadcrumbs for my friends who were trying to figure out what was going on. 

These are the links to the blog I referenced in the letter:

I didn’t realize at the time I was caught in what I now understand as 'Stage 7'.  You can read about it on my blog:

"At this stage, some people try to reason with the leaders. They will either arrange for visits or write long agonizing letters. Some hope that they can change the system or get some to agree with them. They are AMAZED at the total inability of leaders to hear what they are saying. However, some will agree with their arguments, pat them on the head and try to smooth their ruffled feelings."
