The series also hears from staunch defenders of the work that Raniere and Nancy Salzman spearheaded with their Executive Success Programs, as well as former members, lead prosecutor Moira Penza, defense attorney Marc Agnifilo, New York Post trial reporter Emily Saul, and psychological manipulation expert Diane Benscoter. “The Vow, Part Two” additionally features exclusive phone interviews with Raniere from prison and extensive access to Salzman, who examines her role in the rise of NXIVM and her relationship with Raniere and ultimately wrestles with her involvement in growing an organization that was accused of fostering predatory behavior and criminal activity. Salzman speaks on camera while under house arrest and discloses how Raniere sexually pursued both of her daughters. Salzman was ultimately sentenced to 42 months in federal prison for her involvement in the alleged cult; Raniere was sentenced to 120 years. “The Vow” premiered in August 2020. “The Vow, Part Two” premieres October 17 on HBO.
