14. Addressing Subtle Behaviors Associated with Cults

Updated: Jul 6

Research for FBI Josephine Chronicles


Many former cult members have experienced, directly or vicariously, sexual abuse, trauma, or exploitation in their groups. Those born or raised in cultic environments seem particularly vulnerable to these harmful experiences. It is bad enough when a family member denies the reality of a child being sexually abused or exploited; imagine the degree of harm that can occur when the denial of reality and “crazy-making” comes from an entire religious or political community. Again, this is especially true of people born or raised in religious or other cultic groups.
