Pam Cafritz

Mark Vicente described Pam Cafritz as a senior counselor and close confidante who lived with Raniere. He testified that Raniere requested that she become the legal owner of Society of Protectors, although she did not operate it. Nurse practitioner Elizabeth A. Butler identified Cafritz's appointment scheduling in Camila's medical records and recounted her complaint that abuse-screening questions were putting ideas into patients' heads. Butler believed the call concerned Camila but was unsure. The court instructed jurors to consider the conversation only regarding the charged enterprise's means and methods, not for the truth of its statements.

Cafritz's financial accounts and memorial also figured in testimony and closing arguments. Chiropractor Keith Donato identified 35 receipts charged to her American Express card after her death, covering Raniere's treatment and, in some instances, Marianna's. He said Marianna took over making payments and that he initially assumed she was using her own card. In closing, prosecutor Moira Kim Penza argued that Raniere knowingly participated in unauthorized use of Cafritz's accounts after her death. Separately, Nicole testified that Allison Mack required her to transcribe recordings for Cafritz's memorial without pay as part of DOS. Defense counsel Marc Agnifilo characterized unpaid memorial work as voluntary community assistance. Those closing positions were arguments, not findings.
