I think the story of Sandee Rapoport in Anaheim was even more compelling. IIRC Thankful Jane was the victim of a copycat crime Benson Phillips was only doing to Jane what Lee was doing to Sandee.
As the story goes, Max learned that Phillip Lee was romancing the volunteer staff at LSM, and was brave enough to confront Phillip about it. When Witness Lee heard what Max did, his love affair with the Rapoports was over. According to the old Chinese custom, the way to get your "adversary" was by shaming his wife. And that's what Lee did to Sandee, branding her the leader of the sisters' rebellion.
