Keith Raniere, the leader of the alleged sex cult NXIVM, has given an interview which aired on NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt tonight and will also be featured on the network’s Dateline.
In the interview, Raniere denies his convictions for sex trafficking, racketeering and possession of child pornography.
Raniere said he was the victim of unethical prosecution in the interview.
“You know, one of the things that’s most important in our country is the justice system,” Raniere said in the interview.
Despite his pleas of innocence, Raniere said he was “sorry and pained” for his role in the organization.
