Depraved sex cult leader Keith Raniere is found guilty on all counts: Jury takes just four HOURS to convict Nxivm founder after six weeks of testimony from 'branded slaves he starved and forced into orgies'

Keith Raniere has been found guilty on all seven counts, including racketeering, wire fraud conspiracy, forced labor conspiracy and sex trafficking

He is now facing life in prison after a jury arrived at a unanimous verdict just four hours after deliberations began on Wednesday

This follows six weeks of testimony in the case during which multiple women who were lured into the sex slave group DOS recounted their experiences

His sentencing had been scheduled for September 25, and he will likely appeal the verdict

It took just four hours of deliberation for a jury to find Nxivm founder Keith Raniere guilty on all counts.

He now faces life in prison after being convicted of racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, wire fraud conspiracy, forced labor conspiracy, sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy and attempted sex trafficking.

Raniere was also convicted on all 11 underlying counts of racketeering that fell under the wire fraud charge.

The trial lasted for six weeks, during which time multiple women came forward to describe how they served as 'sex slaves' to Raniere and were forced to have his initials branded on their bodies.

Another witness described how Raniere imprisoned her in a room for two years, while an FBI agent showed jurors the graphic nude photos of a 15-year-old Nxivm member that he discovered on Raniere's hard drive.

Raniere had entered a plea of not guilty to all charges. His sentencing had been scheduled for September 25.
