Dunkirk in Brooklyn

Keith Raniere's shadowy reign as the leader of NXIVM came under fire this week during the start of his federal trial in Brooklyn. Times Union reporter Robert Gavin was in court for the first week of action, which included allegations of sex with underage girls, comparisons to Winston Churchill and emotional testimony from people trapped in the organization. All this and more is explored in the second installment of the  "NXIVM on Trial" series, which is hosted by Times Union managing editor Casey Seiler. New episodes are scheduled every week during the trial. This coverage is supported by Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
