Leaked Audio Exposes Cult Leader’s Lies and Manipulation

A new short film released by Lev Tahor Survivors contains leaked audio and video proving that the Lev Tahor cult has been using lies and manipulation to fool Orthodox Jewish supporters and the government of Canada.

Uriel Goldman has raised millions of dollars to fund Lev Tahor, a cult that has been accused of child abuse and neglect, whose leaders are in prison on charges of kidnapping and child exploitations.
