ALBANY — NXIVM leader Keith Raniere will receive his sentence in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn on April 16.

The 59-year-old disgraced personal growth guru faces the possibility of life in prison at the sentencing by Senior U.S. District Judge Nicholas Garaufis. The new sentencing date was announced Friday.

Raniere, formerly of Halfmoon, ruled the cult-like organization, which was based in Colonie but had outposts in Mexico, Canada and elsewhere. He was convicted in June on all counts of racketeering, forced labor conspiracy and sex trafficking following a nearly two-month trial.

One of Raniere’s five co-defendants, Seagrams liquor empire heiress Clare Bronfman, will be sentenced April 23, the judge announced Thursday.

Some of the dozens of victims of Raniere could speak at his sentencing, which was delayed as the judge awaited a pre-sentencing report put together by a federal probation officer.

In addition to running NXIVM, Raniere was the center of a secret "master/slave" group within the larger organization in which female "slaves" were ordered to live on 500-calorie-a-day diets, told to answer to 'round-the-clock “readiness” assignments, and branded with Raniere's initials on their pelvic areas.

Also yet to be sentenced are NXIVM president Nancy Salzman; her daughter Lauren Salzman, who became a key government witness; former television actress Allison Mack; and NXIVM bookkeeper Kathy Russell.

On Tuesday, a 189-page civil lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn by scores of NXIVM victims against Raniere, the Salzmans, Mack, Russell and Bronfman as well as high-ranking NXIVM members Sara Bronfman (Clare's sister), Rosa Laura Junco, Daniela Padilla Bergeron, Loreta Garza Davila, Monica Duran, actress Nicki Clyne and physicians Brandon Porter and Danielle Roberts.

Clyne, Mack, Bergeron, Davila, Duran, Junco and Lauren Salzman were all revealed in the federal trial to have been "first-line slaves" in DOS who answered directly to Raniere, whose involvement in the organization was kept secret.
