Founder of ‘orgasmic meditation’ company gets 9 years in prison in forced labor conspiracy

>Among those who penned letters of support was Van Jones, a CNN correspondent and former adviser to President Barack Obama. He described Daedone as “a woman of uncommon wisdom, grace and moral courage” who has “dedicated her life to helping others find healing, empowerment and a deeper sense of human connection.” >Actor Richard Schiff, of the television series “The West Wing,” wrote that Daedone was deserving of the court’s leniency because she has “spent her life trying to bring compassion, awareness, and honesty to a part of human experience that is often shamed or misunderstood.” Haven't these people learned from Ashton Kutcher? Keep your mouth shut. Now we know Van Jones and Richard Schiff are into this. Oh and it gets worse. >Prominent attorney Alan Dershowitz has said he’ll also seek a pardon from President Donald Trump for Daedone and Rachel Cherwitz, the company’s former sales director. Epstein connected Alan Dershowitz wants to pitch in and get a pardon for this woman.

> Prominent attorney Alan Dershowitz has said he’ll also seek a pardon from President Donald Trump... Well, that tells me plenty what I need to know.

These are the people who insisted that the only place on a woman that needs to be touched is specifically the upper left-quadrant of the clitoris. Not the whole c***. Specifically the upper left-quadrant.

Some folk are just greedy. Greedy people have no morals, and like other sociopaths, are great at "acting. '

I have no idea why these people think they have the background or intelligence to aid with this type of 'therapy' or whatever but we need better laws and vetting around self help groups and the like. Where I live government programs for drug abuse basically prepare you for acceptance and use of AA/NA type programs. I do not think those programs are inherently bad and seem to be well maintained but when we let these groups be the immediate outsourced solution for social problems it opens the door for these types of self help groups particularly when people are at a low in their life. >Daedone co-founded OneTaste in San Francisco in 2004 as a sort of self-help commune that viewed female orgasms as key to sexual and psychological wellness and interpersonal connection. >A centerpiece was “orgasmic meditation,” or “OM,” which was carried out by men manually stimulating women in a group setting. >The company enjoyed glowing media coverage in the 2010s as a cutting-edge enterprise that prioritized women’s sexual pleasure, and quickly opened outposts from Los Angeles to London.

And yet, Scientology continues apace.....

Convicted of exploiting poor people? Thats an express lane to a pardon with the current administration.

Well a good number of rich men (including at least one known sex pest) are saying this female sex cult is good and empowering so case closed guys. Let her go!

We had one of these OneTaste places in Austin if you can believe that.

And I never got that o*****!

And OJ's former lawyer will seek a pardon from Trump to free this wack job.

>used economic, sexual and psychological abuse, intimidation and indoctrination to force OneTaste members into sexual acts they found uncomfortable or repulsive, such as having sex with prospective investors or clients. On the surface it seems like some weird Tantric meditation thing, and OK fine, but now it seems like a cultish brothel?

Not a headline you see every day

Now she's going to spend 9 years meditating in prison /s

In every sex positive community OMers as I called them were the most ornery, emotionally unregulated people and defiantly exhibited cult like behavior

She looks absolutely terrifying in that picture. There’s a look only sociopaths and malignant narcissists seem capable of.

Forced labor + orgasmic = ? Anyone want to offer a theme-consistent answer to this equation? Trump is certainly the man to ask for a pardon!

Who is the lady on the right?

Easy fast track for a trump pardon...sad

An "orgasmic meditation" company sounds ***exactly*** like the kind of woo shit that people who don't understand what genetically modified organisms are would fall for *and* exactly like the kind of company that would employ forced slave labor.

Girls get it done! Especially if you've enslaved them.

Is this feminist orgasmic meditation company actually called 'OneTaste'? Is theonion writing the news now?

Forced labor? I thought she had prostituted people? Guess she bribed Trump enough money.
