The "Cult" Arrests

The story made AP.

Israeli police say they have arrested nine people suspected of belonging to a polygamist cult that sexually abused women and children. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld says the six women and three men were arrested Tuesday for causing "physical and emotional damage." He says the cult was active in Jerusalem and the northern city of Tiberias...a police statement says the alleged abuse included sexual humiliation, starvation and severe violence.

If it interests anyone, it's an old story.  Maybe a decade.

Here's a TV report from March. All Hebrew but great pictures.

In English at Haaretz from 2008.

Also in Google-translated English.

Odd and weird.
