Parlato is also a shadowy figure, since we know almost nothing about him. Apparently he was once a publicist for NXIVM, but was charged by the Bronfman sisters in 2010 of stealing $1 million from them. buffalonews.com/news/local/fra…

That charge was dropped, we don't know why, but he was investigated by the IRS starting in 2015 for wire fraud, tax evasion, and other crimes, and is still being prosecuted by them for the payment of $4 million. So to say that he won here is another reversal.

You don't win against the IRS, and the only question is why he is still on the street. Why has this prosecution been delayed for six years? We must assume it is due to his work on this project.

If the early point of NXIVM was to money launder for the Cafritzes and Bronfmans, then Parlato looks like the segue from the old scheme to the new.

His problems with the Bronfmans were manufactured as cause to kick him out of the group, from where he could begin outing them as a Men-are-Pigs project.

In other words, it was decided NXIVM had run its course as a money laundering outfit, things were getting hot, and the project needed to be phased out. As we see, the IRS was lurking.

But rather than simply close up shop, the head spooks suggested the group be transitioned to another cult project as part of the never-ending Operation Chaos.  They already had this group of actors, so why waste them?

Papa Bronfman had already called them a cult back in 2003, as part of their old cover, so why not take that ball and run with it?  Why not transition them into some sort of Manson-lite sex cult, so that they could cause maximum sexual chaos on the way out?

As a bonus, this sex cult business would also act as further cover from the IRS, since IRS would be pushed aside by the incoming people from FBI, State Police, the AG's office, and the media.  And, as we now see, that is exactly what happened.

IRS had to pause its prosecution of Parlato and probably others while this sex cult business played out.  In the meantime, the extra five years gave Parlato and everyone else (Bronfmans) the time to hide assets and wipe down the rooms, so to speak.

CIA could tell IRS that all the money had been spent on attorneys fees, court costs, and so on. Maybe CIA left Parlato out to dry, or not. I guess we will find out. If he manages to dodge the $4 million bill from the IRS, we may assume it is due to being a protected asset.
