The Law and Crime Network has a new podcast series out now exclusively on Wondery Plus called Devil in the Dorm.

It's about a man named Larry Ray who moved into his daughter's college dorm at Sarah Lawrence

and spent the next decade controlling her friends under what many have described as a sex cult.

The six-part podcast series was composed from thousands of pages

of a federal trial transcript and is hosted by an actress who went to Sarah Lawrence College,

Elizabeth Rome. There are no cameras or audio recordings permitted in federal court, so all of the

testimony has been recreated by some of the biggest

true crime content creators. Devil in the dorm explores how, over the course of almost 10 years,

Larry Ray extorted millions of dollars from the young students while abusing them physically,

sexually, and psychologically. During that time, Larry Ray drove several

members of his group to the brink of suicide, and, according to at least one account, pushed one of

them over the edge. You can listen to Law and Crimes Devil in the Dorm now, exclusively on Wondery

Plus. Find Wondery Plus in the Wondery app or on Apple Podcasts.

Everything about the Sarah Lawrence campus speaks to its uniqueness. A green lawn haven 45 minutes

north of glass concrete and steel New York City, its 19th century Tudor Revival architecture

stands in a sharp contrast to the towering skyscrapers just 15 miles south. The campus is surrounded

by 44 acres of lush woodland, shaded by oak, maple, and cherry trees, and wisteria vines on arbor.

I often call the college the land of broken toys.

If you struggle to function or fit in anywhere else,

Sarah Lawrence is the perfect place for you.

This is the quality of Sarah Lawrence College that Larry Ray exploited to create

what is all the hallmarks of a cult on campus in late 2010.
