In the mid 1970’s, Roch Theriault convinced a group of people to leave their jobs and homes to join him in a religious movement. He prohibited the group from remaining in contact with their families and with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, as this was against his cult's values of freedom. Thériault made the commune build their town while he relaxed, comparing them to ants working in an ant hill, naming the group the Ant Hill Kids. However, he controlled his cult with a iron fist, which led to severe physical and sexual abuse of the members. When all was said and done, 5 people, including two small children died as a result of Theriault’s actions.
