DECLARATION OF ANDRE TABAYOYON
I, ANDRE TABAYOYON, declare as follows:
INTRODUCTION
1. I am over the age of 18 years.
2. I have been retained as an expert consultant and expert witness
by Dr. Geertz's counsel in the case captioned Church cf Scientology
International v. Steven Fishman and Uwe Geertz, No. CV 91-6426-HLH (Tx)
currently pending in the United States District Court, Central District
of California. The statements herein are of my own personal knowledge
or reasonably based on information and belief, and if called upon as a
witness, I can testify competently thereto.
[. . .]
SCIENTOLOGY RELATED MURDERS AND SUICIDES
41. I also observed a number of individuals go crazy when exposed
to the Hubbard Tech even absent malicious intent on the part of the
persons applying the Tech. For example, I saw John Colletto go
psychotic after he was exposed to the OT III level (Operating thetan
level III) materials. He got a pistol. In my presence, he shot his
wife in the head. She died instantly. Then John ran a short distance
before turning the pistol on himself and committing suicide. Moreover,
John Travolta's auditor told me of two occasions on which John Travolta
went into deep depression after auditing and therefore suffered a
psychotic break.
42. I personally observed a number of other Scientologists go
crazy and commit suicide as a result of the auditing processes. Bob
Shaffner and I were serving sentences on the RPF's RPF together.
Although inmates are not allowed to speak to each other while on the
RPF's RPF, Bob made it a point to tell me two or three times daily that
he was going to kill himself because of what he experienced during RPF's
RPF & OT III auditing. One day we were working on dangerous machinery
and Bob suddenly thrust his finger into the machine which cut his finger
off. Scientology management was fully aware of Bob's condition. He was
placed on the risk of suicide list. Because he was suicidal, his
berthing quarters while in the RPF were limited to first floor
facilities. Whatever was done, if anything, to help Bob failed. He
successfully committed suicide several years later.
43. I saw the Scientology thought reform procedures applied to a
large number of Scientologists who were placed on RPF or the RPF's RPF.
These procedures brought about long-lasting changes in the attitudes,
values, personalities and behaviors of the subjects. Some of the
victims I processed were Tom Ashworth, Clarisse Brousseau, Betsy Byrne,
Al Crevello, Steve Crevello, Julie Fisher, Janadair Hockaday, Fred
Houch, Annie Logan, Jim Logan, Judy More, Toni Prybilsky, Tom Saeker,
Johnny Schleshenger, Homer Schomer, Jeff Wrothwiler, Stacy Young and
many others.
44. I observed, participated in and was victimized by the use of
thought reform on RPF as a means to impose the "Fair Game" law on
dissident Scientologists. Despite claims to the contrary Fair Game has
never been, and will never be, cancelled. The words Fair Game used in
any issue is cancelled. However, the actions of handling suppressives
with trickery, lies, deceit and even destruction have not been cancelled
and are still being used today.
[Note: The
Scientology®
organization has at best estimate approximately
45,000 to 50,000 followers world wide -- contrary to the 8 million figure
that the organization has been claiming for the past few years or so.
While that number continues to drop (thanks in part to the Internet) few
of the remaining followers are even aware of the unending series of police
raids, indictments, and prison terms their leaders and fellow cultists are
subjected to routinely. Few are allowed to know about their organization's
criminal history, or its current racketeering activities. Even fewer of
the cult's remaining followers are privy to their messiah's written
policies which dictates the criminal behavior that keeps getting their
organization raided (see Xenu.NET for
suitable references of Scientology policy) Scientology management
is the problem, not the thousands of honest believers who are good,
honest citizens; themselves victims of Scientology - flr]
The name "Narconon"® is trademarked to the Scientology organization through one of their many front groups. The name "Scientology"® is also trademarked to the "Church" of Scientology. Neither this web page, nor this web site, nor any of the individuals mentioned herein assisting to educate the public about the dangers of the Narconon scam are members of or representitives of the Scientology organization.
