The following are some of the criminal activities for which there is
good reason to believe that either Scientology or its minions have
participated in.
There is no particular order in this list; I'm writing them down as
examples of their violations come to me.
Forgery
Tax fraud
Tax evasion
Filing false police reports
Destruction of private property
Destruction of government property
Sailing on international waters without a flag
Construction without a building permit
Construction in violation of zoning ordinances
Practicing medicine without a license
Manufacture and sale of unlicensed pharmaceuticals
Manufacture and sale of unlicensed medical equipment
False advertising
Criminal endangerment
Theft
Breaking and entering
Obstruction of justice
Criminal confinement
Kidnapping
Child neglect
Attempted murder
Rape
Also, numerous violations of the international code of maritime
conduct, many by LRH himself. LRH also violated international law
during his military service by ordering his ship to fire upon neutral
territory during a time of war.
I am sure there are others.
I find any claim that Scientology is a "law-abiding" organization to
be at best laughable.
