Keith Raniere Speaks

Since he was arrested in March 2018, Keith Raniere has been in federal prison. Denied bail despite no evidence of being a flight risk or a danger to society, Mr. Raniere spent the 15 months leading up to his trial in harsh conditions and unable to speak to any of his co-defendants, family, or loved ones. He did not speak at his trial nor present a defense.

Essays

While in prison, Keith has written several essays exploring the circumstances, motivations, and corrupt practices surrounding his case. These writings have been kept private until now for legal purposes, but the time has come for the world to hear a completely different side of the story.

Podcast

After he was convicted on all counts in July 2019, he was permitted to make phone calls, where he began sharing details of his case and his experience in prison with a friend, Suneel Chakravorty. For the first time ever, these phone calls are being released to the public in a series of podcasts, starting with these 10 recordings. Mr. Raniere was sentenced to 120 years and currently resides at a penitentiary in Tucson, Arizona, yet he maintains his innocence. Listen to find out why.

Is Keith truly the monster he is made out to be? Or has his true identity been erased and replaced with a hateful narrative? Decide for yourself whether he deserves to serve 120 years in prison, or if he is a victim of “Eracism,” and serving the sentence of a fabricated identity.
