I was disappointed with the whole story line. Though it was in part an expose, it did leave the general impression that these "New Religious Movements" experimented with one generation, the SGs, was sexual in a free sex manner back in the days when it was Victorian, then it ended with what seemed like a summary of a lost generation that everyone learned from and now were becoming wholesome orgs. The last thing it said about the family referred to its work, largely overseas with "education" and "working with the poor".
Then it went onto the next hr. on "The Brotherhood" and their mismanagement of funds. Sure didn't say anything about current day leadership. It seemed to want to be neutral towards both sides. Like: These terrible things happened to some, though not to many, and it was mostly this one generation, or individual deviants but now the family/Khrishna are pretty normal. Hope the upcoming HBO documentary does the subject more justice.
