“Smallville” actress Allison Mack arrested for role in NXIVM sex cult

Allison Mack was arrested Friday in connection with a case involving an alleged cult leader

Mack was a series regular on Smallville, playing Chloe Sullivan. She also played Amanda on Wilfred. She’s appeared in multiple films, including Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves and The Ant Bully.

The Smallville actress, along with NXIVM cult leader Keith Raniere, also known as “Vanguard,” was charged with sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy and forced labor conspiracy, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York.

Prosectors said Friday that Mack stood at the level directly below Raniere in a pyramid scheme called DOS, into which she recruited fresh slaves. The government alleges that Mack forced those slaves to have sex with Raniere in exchange for what were described as “financial and other benefits.”
