Oh my God!! :oops:

Sex abuse was rife as was being made to eat their own faeces.
Having teeth and even limbs removed was part of daily life for the 12 adults and 22 children under Theriault's sick spell.

Theriault would hit them with a belt initially, but this escalated and they were soon being attacked with hammers.
He would have them suspended from the ceiling, pluck out each of their body hairs individually and even used them as toilets.
As his power grew, Theriault even got his followers to break their own legs with sledgehammers, sit on lit stoves and shoot each other in their shoulders.
To prove their loyalty, cult members were told to cut off each others toes.
Even the children weren't safe from his sick abuse.
The young members of the Ant Hill Kids were routinely sexually abused, nailed to trees so other children could hurl stones at them and held over fires.

...believing he could now ressurect the dead, Theriault drilled a hole into her skull and ejaculated into the cavity, ordering the men of his cult to do the same.
And that's just some of what's contained within. Twisted ****.
In 1993 he pleaded guilty to Solange's murder and was sentenced to life in prison.
The depraved cult leader was murdered by his cell-mate, Matthew Gerrard MacDonald.

He was stabbed in the neck with a shiv and afterwards MacDonald walked up to prison guards and told them: “That piece of s*** is down on the range. Here's the knife, I've sliced him up.”
Good job.
