Welcome

What you read here are true, first-hand accounts of life inside an alternative religious group. What we went through may seem incredible to you. But keep in mind, we were normal, every-day people. Just like you. And we never thought it would happen to us, either.

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas!

There is one part of the interview that is not first-hand information. I figured I would never get an interview with Angelo, so I asked those who consented to do an interview for any information on his past (that they got from either him or from Ceuta.) So this is second-hand information that, collectively, can perhaps paint an image of Angelo's past. Or maybe only the past that he portrayed. It's interesting in either case.

I was going to wait until I was done with the interviews to try and piece this together. But then I thought perhaps you would enjoy piecing it together for yourselves. I doubt I'll have the chance to update the site again before Christmas, so consider this an early Christmas gift.

If anyone has other stories about Angelo's past and you feel pretty certain of their validity, let me know.

Also, I know that this Christmas is the first Christmas that some of you are going to celebrate outside the group. I really hope it's a glorious holiday for you!
