00:00I don't even know where to start.
00:01Today is my sister's birthday.
00:03We're not allowed to contact her and we're blocked on absolutely everything.
00:07We have two daughters. We don't just have one.
00:10All the dancers that she danced with, someone else is controlling their lives.
00:15I don't want to say I was in a cult.
00:17How did I let myself get sucked into something like that?
00:20Miranda and I knew that we always wanted dance to be a part of our lives.
00:24California and dancing, it was their big dream.
00:27Men and women travel to L.A. with their big dream of being on stage
00:31and just get wrapped up in a lot of things that aren't fair for them.
00:357M, an entertainment company founded by Robert Shin,
00:38who's also the pastor of L.A.-based Shekinah Church.
00:41This is a church, but they're also a management company.
00:45I just felt a little funny about that.
00:47When he found the dancers, he saw all this opportunity
00:51to be like the world famous social media talent manager.
00:55Social media, it was new.
00:57Like, man, I can do this and get money for my art.
00:59I want to do this.
01:01He would always share whenever someone would get a deal.
01:04All this money.
01:05It's all going to Robert.
01:06It started out fairly innocuous, but the control slowly grew.
01:12I could be in an unsafe environment.
01:14This is a cult.
01:16They would say, like, cut off your family because you need to work on yourself.
01:18You have to die to your family in order to save them.
01:21As a man of God, I wasn't thinking that he would ever do anything wrong to me or someone.
01:27When you raise somebody and all of a sudden to see a shell of your daughter,
01:33I don't know who this person is.
01:35There were these sleuth accounts popping up.
01:37Former members were saying people suffered in his church for decades.
01:42I felt so betrayed.
01:44It was awful.
01:45I want Robert to never be able to do this ever again.
01:51Whatever you sow, you're going to reap.
01:53It's what he teaches, right?
02:12That's why you eat.
02:13It's full.
02:14You're in love.
02:14You're in love.
02:14Grazie a tutti.
