About

2017 Update: Imprisoned cult leader, Tony Alamo, whose given name is Bernie Lazar Hoffman, died at age 82 on May 2, 2017 in a Federal Prison hospital in North Carolina. Alamo was convicted in July 2009 by a jury in a Texarkana federal court of bringing five girls he wed as children across state lines for sex. Later that year, he was sentenced to 175 years in federal prison by U.S. District Judge Harry Barnes.

Since this site was first opened in 2006 many of the reasons for its existence have been accomplished. Its main purpose was to help stop Bernie Lazar Hoffman, aka Tony Alamo, from raping, beating, and psychologically abusing the young children whose parents are members of his cult. That has been accomplished; Tony Alamo was convicted in July 2009 of 10 Federal Counts of taking underage girls across state lines for sex and he is now serving 175 years in a federal penitentiary.

We also want to dispense information which may help former members in their recovery. Last but not least, we hope to enlighten current members to the reality of the crimes they are supporting through their participation in this organization.

We hope that this web site will be used to encourage people to come forward.
There has to be PROOF of a crime in order to bring charges. That means victims will have to have the courage to say “It happened to me” and/or witnesses will have to say they saw the crime.

If anyone has CURRENT information about underage girls living in Tony Alamo’s household (forced to become his underage wives), or other underage girls in his group forced to marry older men, child labor, child abuse, or other other criminal activities, contact:

The FBI at texarkana@ic.fbi.gov with complete information (names, ages, dates, locations, circumstances). Include complete contact information where you can be contacted.

If you have RECENTLY (in the last few years) come out of the Alamo cult and have had crimes committed against you personally, or you have witnessed criminal activity, go to the local police and file a police report and ALSO send the information to texarkana@ic.fbi.gov
