This week we’re looking into the story of a trucker-turned-prophet who used the villainous teachings of an evil reverend to build up a cult following of doomsday-preppers...how’s that for a sentence? In the 1980’s the small community of Rulo, Nebraska was disrupted by Mike Ryan and his cult followers who had built out a compound on a nearby hog farm. It wasn’t long before a string of thievery and moidah brought them down!
