He's the attorney who finally got Miller Newton in a court of law and won, I think three times now, maybe four.  Look up Lulu Corter and Rebecca Erlich here, you'll see.  Amazing guy!

Yesterday was the last day.

Take a look at the agenda - this was a well-organized event.  The cult awareness presentations would have been awesome to attend.  Hopefully Maia or Phil will make available a transcript????

Maybe there will be some video?  That would be ideal.

Elberg is one hell of a fine lawyer, that's for sure.  His handling of Lulu's case was nothing short of brilliant.  

Maia writes about Straight extensively in her book and referenced a lot of the ex-straights and their websites so I do think more people are getting the big picture here, about The Seed, Straight, Kids Helping Kids, WWASPS, CEDU, etc.

Last week's conference that ended yesterday can only help to spread the word.  Kudos to all that participated and were able to attend.

If ya can, share some deatails with the rest of us, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks! :wave:

He's pretty damned impressive.
