Smallville’s Allison Mack Sentenced To Three Years In Prison

Allison Mack, who was beloved for her role as Chloe Sullivan on Smallville, has been sentenced to three years in prison for her role in the “sex cult” NXIVM.

Her sentence is light compared to that of NXIVM leader Keith Raniere who Allison has now renounced. In the past years, several documentaries and even a TV-movie have offered glimpses and insight into the evil nature of Raniere and the cult.

“I made choices I will forever regret,” Allison told the judge, adding that she was filled with “remorse and guilt” for her actions, which included branding women and recruiting them to the group. As mentioned before, her sentence is much lighter than that received by Raniere as she provided key information that helped with his sentencing.

Allison was first arrested in 2018 for her role in all of this, and she has been on house arrest ever since. Allison has offered an apology for her actions earlier this week prior to sentencing, and in court papers, her lawyers made a plea for her future.

“The NXIVM saga and the story of Ms. Mack’s descent have been a tragedy for all involved. But that need not, and should not, be the end of the story for Allison Mack,” her lawyer wrote.

There were victims in all of this – women who were seriously hurt and damaged by the actions of Raniere and Allison Mack. Because of this, Allison will be facing the consequences of her actions.

“She can blame Keith all she wants but she is a monster cut from the same cloth,” one of her victims, Jessica Joan, said in court on Wednesday. “Allison Mack is a predator and an evil human being.”
