Pseudonymns Used In The "Divine Downfall" Interview: 
"Jeff Young" was the alias for Al Rahm
"Sam Young" was the alias for Alaya Rahm
"Carrie Young" was the alias for Marisa Rahm.
In my following comments, I will refer to these three individuals by their real names and not their pseudonyms. I will also substitute the pseudonyms with real names in text taken from The Divine Downfall interview (for reasons of clarity).
Disturbing Admission In "The Divine Downfall" By Alaya Rahm:
Alaya Rahm told Mick Brown that when he first left Sathya Sai Baba, he felt (and still did at that time) that he had a "sense" that Sathya Sai Baba was, "standing over my shoulder saying 'Good Boy, you're doing a good job'". Since Anti-Sai Activists (including the Rahm Family) contend that Sathya Sai Baba is a nothing more than a fraud, this would imply that Alaya Rahm justified the public exposure of his allegations based on voices he heard in his head. Of course, this very disturbing fact pales in comparison to Alaya Rahm's love poem to Sathya Sai Baba, written after allegedly being sexually abused dozens of times. The love-poem read:
"I will never love another. My mother I come from you. Your words echo through mine. To them I will stay true. Love and grace is your hook. Sai you are so sweet, the beauty of your tender feet. Sai you are so sweet, the love you spread across the world. Sai you are so sweet, glancing patiently with loving eyes. Sai you are everything to me. Your pleasure is my goal. In your bright fire I'm a simple coal." (Reference)
"The Divine Downfall" Interview Was Taken From Audio Tape:
According to the Rahms, The Divine Downfall interview was inaccurate due to the way it was edited (Reference). Mick Brown told me (in an email) that he tape-recorded his interview with the Rahm family and everything quoted from them came directly from that tape-recording.
Pertaining To "Divine Downfall" Witness, Alaya Rahm:
According to Alexandra Nagel (in her paper "Shiva Shaki"), Alaya Rahm (the prime interviewee on The Divine Downfall) claimed that "on two different occasions" Sathya Sai Baba turned his penis into a vagina or made his penis disappear and then reappear. Nagel said that she personally talked to Alaya Rahm (then using the pseudonym "Sam Young") and she obtained this first-hand testimony from him. Needless to say, nowhere else do we read this incredible (and simply unbelievable) claim from Alaya about Baba making his penis disappear and then reappear. Why not?
The testimonies of Alaya Rahm are sanitized versions of what Alaya actually encountered with Baba. In Alaya's testimonies, Sathya Sai Baba is depicted as a human, with no paranormal powers, who is forcing Alaya into having sex with him. However, factor in the accounts that Alaya Rahm gave to Alexandra Nagel where Baba literally went from having male genitals to female genitals and things begin to appear quite different. Of course, by adding the information that Alaya gave to Nagel, many would doubt Alaya's testimonies. Perhaps that's why it was never mentioned. However, factoring in the miraculous genitalia change, if it were true (and why would Alaya lie about it?), one could most certainly reason that since Baba has the miraculous ability to literally change from one gender to another, his actions, no matter how sexual, cannot be equated with those of a normal human being. This is not making an excuse for what happened to Alaya. It is simply a very valid observation based on the miraculous, physical transformation that Alaya attributed to SSB, but did not discuss in his public testimonies. Some have attributed this "genitalia switch" to Baba being a hermaphrodite. However, if we are to truly believe the accounts made by Alaya, Sathya Sai Baba had a fully functional penis as Alaya claimed he saw it.
As a matter of fact, Keith Ord gave a very compelling sexual encounter with Sathya Sai Baba that Anti-Sai Sites refuse to list in their sexual abuse section. Why? Because Keith Ord talked about Sathya Sai Baba literally morphing his penis into a vagina! Keith Ord specifically said that Baba was not a hermaphrodite, but that Baba literally changed his penis into a vagina. Of course, this claim makes Keith Ord's alleged sexual encounter with Baba sound crazy, which is why it is not listed under ExBaba's sexual abuse section. Furthermore, David Bailey accepted Keith Ord's story, but snipped out the "penis turned vagina" section because Bailey knew it would cast serious doubt on Keith Ord's credibility. If Keith Ord's testimony is seen as being unbelievable (because of the "genital switch" story), why is Alaya Rahm's not seen as being the same?
Consequently, we are presented with the possiblities that either Alaya Rham lied about his experiences or Sathya Sai Baba has the miraculous ability to change his gender at will. Which scenario sounds more plausible?
