Some children were obtained through questionable adoptions, others were born to cult members and some were even handed over by compliant sect parents.



Sounds like the perps basically got away with a slap on the wrist. :furious:

Never heard of this case before...

It sounds like they're making a documentary about it.
From the comments below, though-- there's already a previous one.

Chilling stuff.

:moo:

An incendiary, heartbreaking investigation into one of Australia's most notorious cults, and the scars its victims still bear today.

Anne Hamilton-Byrne was beautiful, charismatic, delusional and damaged. She was also incredibly dangerous. Convinced she was a living god, Hamilton-Byrne headed an apocalyptic sect dubbed The Family, which was prominent in Melbourne through the 60s and 70s.

documentary exposes not just what happened within the still-operating sect but also within the conservative Melbourne community that allowed The Family to flourish.

Emph. mine

Can't believe this cult is still in existence !
