Kristin has previously denied any involvement in the recruitment of sex slaves. In a statement she posted to Twitter, the Canadian actress wrote, “When I was about 23, I took an Executive Success Programs/NXIVM ‘intensive,’ what I understood to be a self-help/personal growth course that helped me with my previous shyness, which is why I continued with the program. I left about five years ago and have had minimal contact with those who were still involved. The accusations that I was in the ‘inner circle’ or recruiting women as ‘sex slaves’ are blatantly false.”
In addition to showing support for the victims, Kristin maintained that she had no idea that anything illegal was going on. “During my time, I never experienced an illegal or nefarious activity” she went on to say. “I am horrified and disgusted by what has come out about DOS. Thank you to all the brave women who have come forward to share their stories and expose DOS; I can’t imagine how difficult this has been for you. I am deeply disturbed and embarrassed to have been associated with NXIVM. I hope that the investigation leads to justice for all of those affected.”
