THE daughter of a police chief claims her dad raped her for 11 years as part of a twisted paedo sex cult.
Courtney Tamagny, 20, claims members of the alleged sex cult in New Jersey made children play sick “games,” allowing them to run through the woods before subjecting them to abuse.

She has filed a lawsuit against her dad, New Jersey‘s Leonia Police Chief Scott Tamagny as well as a neighbor, Kevin Slevin.
Dad Tamagny and neighbor Slevin say the claims were thoroughly investigated as high as the federal government and determined to be unfounded.
Slevin has even countersued Courtney for defamation.
But Courtney hasn’t shied away from the legal chaos as she has taken her claims public, appearing on podcasts to describe the alleged sexual abuse.
The 20-year-old claims her dad and Slevin abused her in their home, as well as “ritualistic” masked worshippers in the local woodland.
Her dad also allegedly threatened to murder her mom if she ever spoke up, court documents revealed.
The lawsuit claimed: “[Courtney was brought] into the woods in Rockland County New York, and there was what appeared to be other middle-aged men present with masks on their faces.”
Here, she allegedly recalls there “being fire and animals being burned, and they would chant as if ritualistic”.
It further claimed: “She was sexually assaulted in those woods by defendant Slevin, defendant father, and some of the other men present.”
The alleged heinous abuse began in 2009 when Courtney was around four years old, with the lawsuit claiming it continued until she was 15, in 2020.
Both of Courtney’s sisters are also allegedly victims of abuse, according to the lawsuit.
Their dad allegedly used drugs to sedate them before assaulting them while their mom was either away or asleep.
Courtney’s mom, Jeanne Tamagny, stood by her daughters side as a plaintiff on the lawsuit and is in the process of divorcing her husband.
The 20-year-old also claims that, as a survival tactic, she suppressed memories of the abuse – with her only recalling the horrific ordeal after a visit to a doctor for genital pain.
The doctor had asked Courtney if she had been sexually abuse, which caused her to have flashbacks, the suit claims.
It was her therapist that eventually reported the abuse to authorities in 2022, court papers say.
Courtney has described the alleged abuse on a podcast in April called ‘We’re All Insane’.
Here she also claimed generation of her dad’s “bloodline” had been in a satanic cult with neighbors in their North Jersey town.

She further alleged they ritualistically raped her and her siblings – and even trafficked children and burned them alive in the woods.
Courtney claimed on the pod that the neighborhood cult members had underground “tunnels” which they would use to operate their rituals.
This included allegedly “taking kids’ blood,” “drum circles” and “burnings” – which would last all night.
Courtney said on the show: “Burnings of animals, animal skins, humans as well.”
She added: “What scared us the most is ‘Ok, we’re doing this to these people we’ve trafficked, why wouldn’t we do this to you? Because we just did that to this young girl or this young boy.”
Courtney said the alleged cult was part of a national group of satanists that engaged in child trafficking.
She also talked of the alleged “games” that would occur – but “were not games”.
One was allegedly called “Hunter and Gatherers” where more than 10 children were released into the woods and told to hide.
Cult members would then allegedly find them before assaulting them.
Courtney claimed on the pod: “They made it as if it was a game and you could win.
“You weren’t going to win, you were always going to be hit, they just wanted you to look terrified and run.”
Courtney also claimed her dad used his position of being in local law enforcement to trap her in the abuse, thwarting any opportunity for her to get help.
The 20-year-old is suing her dad and neighbor Slevin, and has also named the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office, the State of New Jersey, numerous state child protective services, among others.
Tamagny and Slevin have both vehemently denied the claims.
Slevin’s attorney, Kevin Corriston, told The New York Post: “It’s made up out of whole cloth.
“This entire complaint was previously investigated by everybody from Homeland Security, to the Attorney General’s Office in New Jersey, to the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office, and they found no basis at all for these outrageous allegations.
“Having got no satisfaction from law enforcement, she now decided to sue all the people who were involved in the investigation.
“These claims are on their face unbelievable. There is no way in the world that there was some sort of secret satanic child sex cult operating out of Riverdale, New Jersey.
“This is a fantasy made up in her mind.”
The countersuit filed by Slevin accuses Courtney of defamation and claims her allegations have “exposed [him] to public ridicule and held in disrepute”.
Courtney’s claims have also caused him “extreme embarrassment and humiliation and severe mental distress”.
Tamagny’s attorney, similar to Slevin’s, called the allegations “completely false and defamatory”.
