Some confusion here because he founded a law firm with his dad in 1979. At the same time, he joined the Albany County Prosecutors office and apparently retired around 2001, and went back to his dad's firm.
That would put him in the prosecutor's office from around 1979-2001.
In 1993, a girl named Rhiannon reported that Raniere had raped her throughout 1991-1992. She was 12-13 at the time of the rapes, and 15 when she made the report to the NY State Police. Raniere was 31-32 at the time (he was born August, 1960). Rhiannon had escaped Raniere prior to her 1993 report.
When she refused to wear a wire and go back to her abuser, the police dropped the case.
The report happened in Saratoga County, where Raniere maintained his conclave of supporters in the Clifton Park neighborhood, so perhaps Albany-based DerOhannesian is exonerated?
As usual, the Frank Report has good background info and The Albany Times Union published her story in 2012 as part of a series of articles on Raniere and NXIVM (that authorities declined to act on).
I'll add this dig as a crumblet on my homepage listing of NXIVM updates.
Thanks again, TheDog for bringing this up!
