three fwds from L Moss Sharman - Strict discipline: Ex-member testifies cult beat children By Dave Wedge 1/23/04 "Attleboro cult leader Roland Robidoux taught his brainwashed minions to beat their children with paddles to ``break their spirit'' and encouraged spanking babies who were just a few months old as ``training,'' an ex-member testified yesterday....The allegations of systematic abuse of children in The Body religious sect were made by Mingo during the trial of Karen Robidoux, who is charged with second-degree murder for the 1999 starvation death of her 11-month-old son, Samuel. Prosecutors say Robidoux, 29, starved her son to death to fulfill a religious prophecy handed down by Michelle Mingo, who is Roland Robidoux's daughter and Mingo's ex-wife. She is awaiting trial on accessory charges. Karen Robidoux's husband, Jacques, is serving a life sentence for their son's killing. Mingo acknowledged that children in the sect were struck with wooden paddles which some members wore around their necks like necklaces. He testified the children's beatings were designed by Roland Robidoux to ``break their spirit.'' Children as young as 1 were made to stand at attention and remain quiet while adults held religious pow-wows in Mingo's Seekonk home, he said." http://news.bostonherald.com/localRegional/localRegional.bg?articleid=1442
