It is a shame that there wasn't more of an organized community of ex-members at that time to offer encouragement and to back up her testimony.
The obvious answer to them begging her to "please not bring it to court because of the negative ramifications it would have on the group", is that the group should have considered that before they endorsed and encouraged such negative behavior.
