June 23, 1940 - George Feigley
Feigley operated under the institutional cover of both a church and a school, using doctrinal language around spirituality to normalize the sexual abuse of children. His 1975 arrest on multiple counts of statutory rape and related charges came after roughly five years during which his organizations had gone largely unchecked by authorities. The written and illustrated material he produced made explicit what his institutions practiced, leaving a documented record of the ideology behind his crimes.
From Wikipedia
George Feigley (June 23, 1940 – April 13, 2009) was an American church leader. He has been described as a sex cult leader. Feigley called himself "The Light of the World,", a phrase previously used in the self-description of Jesus. Feigley served over 32 years in prison for sex crimes against children, from 1975 to 2008.
In 1971, Feigley founded both a "Neo-American" church and a school in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. His church doctrine emphasized the transcendent or mystical power of orgasm, and reportedly advocated the use of children for sexual gratification. Feigley wrote a book entitled The Sale of Lillian, which described the sexual abuse of a 10-year-old girl, and contained graphic illustrations of such abuse. Feigley led the church in freedom for only about five years, as he was arrested in 1975 on multiple counts of statutory rape, indecent assault, and corrupting the morals of minors.
