Clare Bronfman, heiress to the Seagram liquor fortune, was sentenced to nearly seven years in prison on charges stemming from her involvement with the cult-like group Nxivm
Clare Bronfman, heiress to the Seagram liquor fortune, was sentenced to nearly seven years in prison Wednesday -- more than the five-year sentence prosecutors had recommended.
Bronfman was remanded to custody shortly after the hearing. Her attorney told CNN she plans to appeal immediately. Bronfman, 41, is the first member of Nxivm, a company that marketed self-improvement programs, to be sentenced in the federal case that resulted in the cult-like group's founder Keith Raniere being convicted of sex trafficking, racketeering, sexual exploitation of a child and human trafficking charges.
