The Ancient Egyptian-themed compound of the Nuwaubian cult. Now defunct after the founder Dwight York (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwight_York) was convicted of child molestation and sentenced to 135 years in prison.
The 476-acre Putnam County compound that York once owned was sold in June 2005 for $1.1 million, according to the U.S. Marshals Service. The property and a home in Athens were forfeited to the government and seized after York was convicted in January 2004 of 10 counts of child molestation and racketeering.
