I don't normally use my blog to simply promote other stories by scientology whistleblowers, but this morning is an exception. First, last night, Mat Pesch put up a new YouTube video with the latest news from one of his inside sources at the FLB. He has a lot of information about specific individuals, but ends with a bombshell about Miscavige's direct involvement in the "Chase Wave" and how he sent one of his personal staff who was directly involved out of the country. It is quite remarkable the level of detail Mat is getting... Then this morning, Tony … [Read more...]

Leah & Mike: The Masterson Sentencing

Here are the documents we mentioned: Jane Doe 1 Mother's Letter to Miscavige You can also find this, and a glossary of terms at Leah's Substack: DOJ Sentencing Memorandum For those who don't want to read the entire 70 page document, here is a redacted summary of key points: Excerpts DOJ Sentencing Memo … [Read more...]
Brothers Broken: A New Film About Scientology Destroying Lives
A couple of days ago, Tony put this message from Geoff Levin on his blog. I am republishing here in the event that any reader here may not have seen it at Tony's. Geoff has been a staunch supporter of this blog and me generally. I am proud to be included in his movie -- I met his brother, Robbie, when I was at Sundance for the premiere of Going Clear. Two talented and extremely nice men who have an incredible horror story to tell. Fortunately, this one has a relatively happy ending, though Geoff's children remain disconnected. This is Geoff's message: It’s been a long jo … [Read more...]
Some Background on Scientology’s Efforts to Destroy Enemies
Over the last few weeks, Chris Owen (author of many insightful writings about Hubbard and scientology, including his excellent book, Ron The War Hero) has done a series of posts with Tony Ortega on Substack describing the history of the harassment campaigns carried out by scientology. As is always the case with Chris, he is a meticulous researcher and summarizes the information in a concise and accurate way. This is important information that should be as widely available as possible, so I am combining his 3 pieces into one longer article and reprinting it below. It's fascinating … [Read more...]
NEW Fair Game PI Activity Caught on Video
There's some scientology Fair Game activity underway in our neighborhood since Leah filed her lawsuit. Some neighbors alerted us to a suspicious vehicle parked on the main boulevard of our community outside their house. Two neighbors took photos of license plate of the vehicle at different times and locations: Shortly thereafter Christie and I went out to the local store and just like magic – look who is right in front of us: Of course, this could have been a coincidence and just someone who lives in our neighborhood – though s … [Read more...]
Elderly Abuse in Scientology: What You Can Do
Leah and I are always working when it comes to advocating for victims of Scientology, whether we are vocal it about it or not. As you know Leah has focused on Shelly because she knew Shelly so well and took a stand while she was still in as well as when she got out of scientology -- including filing a missing person's report with the LAPD that they brushed under the carpet. Journalist Yashar Ali did an incredible piece of reporting on this story recently. Important: Where's Shelly? NEW Reporting And following up on this work, he has come up with more invaluable … [Read more...]
Scientology Squeals Victim
The response to Leah”s lawsuit is scientology’s standard “a bigot is being mean to us poor victims” drivel. This one is especially unhinged, indicative of how worried David Miscavige is about this latest lawsuit naming him. The greater the purple prose and insanity of the inevitable ridiculous comparisons they make directly correlates to the level of volcanic eruption that occurred in the COB suite when he found out about the lawsuit. As Scientology responses go, this one is in the Hall of Fame. I am including their whole statement here in indented italics with my comments followi … [Read more...]
People Magazine: Where’s Shelly? Scientology: You’re Bigots
Following the excellent and extensive reporting by Yashar Ali on the disappearance of Shelly Miscavige (I just updated my blog post about this to include the latest documents from Yashar), People magazine published a piece on the subject (shallow and revealing nothing new, I wish they had followed Yashar's lead and actually dug into this subject. But, the tremendous reach of People cannot be denied and serves to raise public awareness on the issue. You can read the People piece here. What is also interesting is the inevitable response from the scienobots on social … [Read more...]
Important: Where’s Shelly? NEW Reporting
I am posting this to help get the widest possible distribution of this very important piece by my friend Yashar Ali. He has done an astonishing job of telling the story of Shelly Miscavige, especially the cover-up by scientology assisted by the LAPD. He has uncovered new and shocking information about the circumstances of how the LAPD "verified" Shelly was OK. And a tragic photo of Shelly, taken from her last issued driver's license that tells so much. It is a masterpiece of giving the big picture, while including and explaining details of the scientology world that make the big picture … [Read more...]
Justice for Danny Masterson’s Victims
At last, a measure of justice for the victims of Danny Masterson. It has been too long coming. And these women have had to endure WAY too much to get to this point. Each of them are strong beyond comprehension to have survived the ordeal they were put through: first by Masterson, then by scientology, then by law enforcement and finally having to relive the horrendous events in not just one, but two trials. If you think you have any idea the emotional, mental and physical toll this sort of experience exacts, unless you have endured it personally, you cannot know. I hope these 3 victims, … [Read more...]
