The owner of a popular Twin Cities food truck is asking a Hennepin County judge to prevent two sisters from publicly accusing her of operating a cult.
Bad Rooster owner Soulaire Allerai filed a defamation lawsuit against sisters Kelly Ring Abedi and Angela Marie Hummelgard in July. The story of the alleged food truck cult has since gained attention while Bad Rooster continues making the rounds at local breweries and events to sell award-winning fried chicken. Some vendors were contacted by the sisters to no longer do business with Allerai, who has claimed financial losses as a result.
At a virtual hearing Friday afternoon, Allerai's attorney asked for a temporary injunction while the lawsuit is pending and Judge Joseph Klein has taken it under advisement.
Meanwhile recent court filings from the sisters' attorneys reveal others who claim Allerai is allegedly running a cult that they left personally or lost a relative to.
Allerai is the spiritual director at Living Faith Spiritual Community and has more than 100,000 followers on Facebook. She founded the Soulful Journey and a wellness center at a Minnetonka address shared with Living Faith, and she launched Bad Rooster in 2019.
Earlier this summer, the sisters began posting on the food truck's Facebook page and writing reviews about how the business funds a cult to which they lost their relationship with their mother and that they were once members of in the early 2000s.
