After emails to Mr. Bronfman containing spyware went unopened , his daughter, Clare Bronfman, a high-ranking Nxivm member, installed the program directly on her father’s computer, said the witness — whom prosecutors identified only by her first name, Daniela. Soon, Daniela said, she was able to figure out the password to Mr. Bronfman’s AOL account. “I would methodically check email by email.”
