"Cult' leader claims he is not child molesterDwight "Malachi" York, the leader of a "cult" group called the Nuwaubians plead innocent concerning criminal sex charges in a Georgia courtroom last Friday, reports the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Outside the courthouse a gathering of about 200 faithful Nuwaubians chanted "God will make a way" and "We love you." Apparent proof that "brainwashing" can keep on working even when a cult leader is away. York has been in jail for months.
Interestingly, as the Nuwaubian leader's following has dwindled the criminal counts within his indictment have increased. He plead to 208 related charges for molesting and sexually exploitating minor children. Possibly numbering more than the people that showed up to cheer him on.
It should come as no surprise that York's remaining faithful remnant deny his guilt and that some even see his indictment as an "evil conspiracy" to topple their beloved leader.
Denial is often a way of life for people caught up in destructive cults. After all, there are still Davidians loyal to the memory of David Koresh living outside Waco.
Hopefully though, "God will make a way" to keep Mr. York locked up for the foreseeable future.
