I received this email from New York’s most influential publicist. I reprint it here in full.

OneTaste’s Nicole Daedone and Rachel Cherwitz are set to face trial on January 13th in the Eastern District of New York. The charge is a single count of conspiracy to commit forced labor. But this case, the indictment, and the prosecution’s narrative can be summarized succinctly in the immortal words of Vinny Gambino: “Everything that guy just said is bullshit… Thank you.”

Unlike Hollywood, where fiction often serves as entertainment, this case appears to blur the lines between the two.

Alarmingly, the charges were constructed with input from a producer of the Netflix film Orgasm Inc., which relied heavily on fraudulent journals authored by the Government’s star witness, Ayries Blanck. Even more troubling, these same fabricated journals are being used as key evidence in the trial.

Yesterday, Valerie Bauman, an investigative reporter at Newsweek, published a piece on NXIVM and Keith Raniere’s case, highlighting allegations that FBI agents planted evidence to secure Raniere’s conviction.

While this issue isn’t new—Raniere and his legal team have repeatedly tried to expose it to the EDNY judge and prosecutors —Ms. Bauman neglected to mention a critical fact. The FBI agent accused of tampering with evidence in Raniere’s case is none other than Elliot McGinnis.

McGinnis, the same agent involved in OneTaste’s case, has been accused of:

• Concealing evidence.
• Instructing a witness to delete an entire email and social media account.
• Directing a witness to park evidence in his hands to avoid turning it over to the defense.
• Using his personal email to collaborate on the very Google Doc journal containing fabricated entries being presented as evidence.

The parallels between these matters show a troubling pattern of misconduct. I have evidence for both NXIVM and OneTaste that McGinnis is a rogue agent, and I can demonstrate that the prosecutors are aware of these issues, yet remain determined to push forward. Equally concerning, the presiding judge—on only her second case—has declined to act on clear, well-documented malfeasance.

This trial should not proceed under these conditions. I urge you to examine this matter closely and consider investigating further. Justice demands scrutiny, and the media’s voice could shed light on a deeply flawed process.
