It is said that her husband uses the reputation of Salinas to silence Mexican members of the NXIVM (sex slave cult) and keep them in the dark folds of the cult.

It is also reported that a few months before the twins were born, she flew into the surrogate mother’s condition and returned with the twins already born.
