Four days ago, "Smallville" actress Allison Mack gave her first interview since her involvement in the NXIVM sex cult. Speaking at BravoCon in Las Vegas, Mack provided a candid account of her experience with the abusive organization and the subsequent prison sentence she served.

The actress expressed a sense of remorse and a desire to take responsibility for her actions, which included recruiting and manipulating other women into the cult's practices.
The NXIVM scandal, which unfolded over several years, involved allegations of sex trafficking, forced labor, and other forms of abuse. Mack's role in the cult's operations was a significant factor in her eventual conviction and imprisonment.
