Zena was rightfully convinced that the situation was only going to get worse if they didn't respond at all, because silence could be seen as an admission of guilt or at the very least, you know, it left open speculation.
And when speculation is open, that's when lies start to come in.
And that's when people start deciding what the truth is for themselves.
Yeah, and this is also shit about child rape.
Oh, shit.
People are being arrested and charged with crimes against children.
This was absolutely something to take incredibly seriously.
Well, he's just gone.
Yeah.
I mean, finally, LeVay admitted to his daughter that he actually didn't have anyone to deal with interviews or media appearances anymore because Diane Higarty, co-founder of the Church of Satan...
She was fucking gone by 1985.
In 1984, after years of emotional and physical abuse, Diane Higarty left Anton LaVey.
She claimed that he had screamed at her frequently and had once knocked her unconscious with a headlock.
It definitely ramped up.
I mean, it was known that he had anger problems privately.
But the 1984 split was the first time that these allegations were made public.
According to Anton and Diane's grandson, the abuse against Diane had only grown in the last few years that they were together.
In other words, Anton's outward abuse seems to coincide with a realization in the early 1980s, this is as far as the ride was going to take him.
He also didn't give a shit about what was happening in the outside world.
That's the ECI.
