Source Review and Recovery

Research on coercive groups has to protect people who are leaving or recovering. This page frames survivor material, official records, and public claims with caution.

Core Ideas

Source tiersSeparate official filings, court records, direct public statements, journalism, survivor testimony, anonymous tips, and speculation. Each tier needs a different confidence label.

Recovery languageUse language that supports agency, privacy, and exit. Do not demand public self-disclosure or turn trauma into spectacle.

EscalationImminent harm, abuse allegations, threats, or recruitment of minors should move to appropriate professionals, platform reports, or authorities rather than public pile-ons.
