Yes, I too see a disconnect. My friend’s experiences are facts because they truly happened, and were systemic within that home.
Do you personally know any person who was “on the inside” living in celibate community? Or are you only going by what you read?
Please tell me that you do not affirm the abuse she and others within that home experienced.
Several of them.
systemic within that home

Not sure what you mean by that, sorry.
I still think she should have gone to the police. Even in Latin America, they have laws against kidnapping and giving drugs to people outside of a medical setting.
