Leo Mercier and Gene Goad, and the commune called "The Park" that the two set up in Prescott, Arizona. Branham sanctioned the commune and instructed victims of abuse to stay with their abusers. We discuss: * The sudden and unexpected decision by Branham to choose little-known Leo Mercier and Gene Goad * The unusual aspects of that decision, considering their sexual orientation * Branham's false claims of "FBI Agents" * Leo Mercier's sudden fame in the Latter Rain through Joseph Mattsson-Boze * The migration to Prescott, Arizona * The horrific abuse that occurred in the "Message" cult commune * The Branham cult selling "tape boy" products advertising the predators.
