Criminal Time Track: A History of High Crimes Against Scientology
Here's a useful index to sections of this document:
An open letter to all Scientologists: Issue II
Greetings and by way of introduction, I am a Class 8, OT 8, who has been in
the Church for many decades and I am in good standing with the Church. I am
a lover of LRH's technology and that is my motivation in writing you and in
doing what I am now doing.
It came to my attention, sometime in the not too distant past, that the
current top management of the Church, particularly David Miscavige, is off
source. One of the ways he is off-source is that he has made the same
mistake as the old Guardian's Office staff made, engaging in criminal
activities to solve problems.
Furthermore, he and RTC have betrayed Ron's trust to keep the technology
true to source. Along this line he has allowed thousands of alterations to
LRH issues in books, HCOBs, and tapes. The attached time track gives some of
the details.
I am not alone in this observation, there are hundreds upon hundreds of
other Scientologists who also know this to be true and efforts to apply KSW
within the Church have not yielded any positive results. Miscavige, being at
the top in command, ousts anyone who tries to correct his squirreling of the
technology by internal methods.
The Creed of the Church provides an answer: We of the Church believe that
all men have inalienable rights to conceive, choose, assist or support their
own organizations, churches and governments.
In keeping with that, a new group has been formed, an association of
on-source auditors, loyal to LRH and his technology. We reject any and all
alterations of LRH's technology by Miscavige, or anyone else, for that
matter. The only technology we agree to practice is that which comes from
LRH himself. Since this is unavailable to us at the formal Churches at this
time, we are starting our own group to make this a reality.
Our first project is to get KSW point 1 in: having the correct technology.
We are currently working at assembling a complete, on-source, LRH library of
the entire bridge.
When that is done, we will engage in the paramount - producing theta clears
and beyond.
You will hear from us again in the near future. In the meantime, you can
educate yourself by reading the attached time track.
1954
The Church of Scientology of California is founded. It acts as the mother
church. It is initially granted tax exempt status.
March 1966
LRH resigns as executive director. He establishes the Guardian's Office
(G.O.). He appoints Mary Sue Hubbard as Controller over all Scientology
organizations and the G.O. Between 1966 and 1981, LRH, MSH and the G.O.
exercised total control over all Church assets, bank accounts, property,
copyrights and trademarks.
One of the key policies applied by the G.O. is "Fair Game". It states that
an enemy of Scientology may be deprived of property or injured by any means
by any Scientologist without any discipline of the Scientologist. May be
tricked, sued, or lied to or destroyed.
1966
LRH sells Saint Hill Manor to the Church of Scientology of California.
1967
The IRS removes the C of S of California from the roster of tax exempt
organizations.
The IRS says it is a for-profit business that enriches church officials.
Note:
How do they know that? Obviously someone on the inside gave them financial
data.
Who was their plant/informant? The point is: this shows they infiltrated
the church.
LRH obtains the yacht Apollo and starts the Sea Org. He manages Scientology
from there.
1969
In Founding Church of Scientology v United States, the Court of Claims found
that some of the Founding Church's money inured to the individual benefit of
LRH and family. This included a house maintained by the Church, a percentage
of the Church's income, and other royalties and commissions. The court based
its finding of inurement on informal loans made to LRH that were never
explained.
Decade of the 1970's
In the 1960's decade tech had fallen out to the degree that "quicky grades"
were being delivered. That meant only one process was run per grade, so
people were not getting the gains they should have obtained from auditing.
LRH applied KSW and handled this, so that all processes for each grade were
done. The result was that in the decade of the 1970's, orgs were teaming
with people. Each org had hundreds of people on staff and hundreds of
preclears and students on lines daily. At that time - Scientology was fun.
Decade of the 1970's
The U.S. Intelligence community is engaged in a psychic arms race with
Russia. They are conducting mind control experiments and researching all
kinds of psychic phenomena. Thus they were interested in Scientology
exteriorization tech and other OT phenomena.
Hal Puthoff works for the National Security Agency (NSA). He joins
Scientology and goes up to OT 3. After that he goes straight into the
CIA-spawned "Remote Viewing Program" at Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in
Palo Alto, California.
"Remote Viewing" was just another way of saying exteriorization, they are
the same thing.
The other two key participants in the SRI "Remote Viewing Program" were Ingo
Swann and Pat Price. Price was an OT 4 and Swann was an OT 7 (who also had a
Top Secret Clearance with the military).
These three OTs conducted experiments to scientifically document and prove
the phenomena of exteriorization.
The scientific method used to document exteriorization was this:
Ingo Swann and Pat Price would have their bodies physically located at SRI
in Palo Alto.
A team of scientists would leave Palo Alto and go to some other physical
location in the world. Swann and Price would exteriorize and go to the site
of the remote scientists and take a look. Swann and Price would then return
to their bodies in Palo Alto and accurately describe the location of the
remote scientists in some other part of the world.
In addition to the exteriorization experiments, they conducted experiments
that scientifically proved that an OT could influence a magnetic field with
his thought.
Records of all of these experiments were kept and Puthoff then wrote a book
about the experiments, entitled "Remote Viewing."
1972
Hal Puthoff is still the head of the CIA's Remote Viewing Program at (SRI).
He remains the head of this program until 1985. Also involved is Louis Jolyn
West, a psychiatrist who is a brainwashing specialist, and CIA ties going
back to the early 1950's.
Ingo Swann uses his ability to exteriorize to spy on Russia, on behalf of
the US Intelligence community.Pat Price was the best at remote viewing. He
is said to have gone on from there to work directly for the CIA, with Ken
Kress as his handler.
Later in time, Pat Price decided to leave his spy work for the CIA and
return to SRI. He stopped over in Las Vegas and died of a purported heart
attack in his hotel room. There was no autopsy performed, allegedly due to
the persuasion of an unknown individual with a briefcase full of Price's
medical records.
Ingo Swann then set up a training program to teach others how to do Remote
Viewing.
This, of course, uses Scientology exteriorization techniques, such as anchor
point processes and Route 1 processes out of the LRH book Creation Of Human
Ability.
To test Swann's program, CIA officer, Major Ed Dames, and five others go to
SRI as a training group. The results were more than anyone had anticipated.
Major Dames says that within 6 months the team members were producing
psychically derived data with more consistency and accuracy than the most
renown natural (untrained) psychics in the world.
Major Dames then acts as the Training and Operations Officer at the SRI
Remote Viewing Program for "a new psychic intelligence community". In other
words, they were using the ability to exteriorize for spying purposes.
Note:
In the 1990s, Major Dames offers a course in "remote viewing"
(exteriorization) to the public for $4,500.00 a person. He also sells tapes
about this to the public for $299 each. Although he is using Scientology
technology to do this, RTC leaves him totally alone. Why is that, RTC?
1972
From 1972 to 1982, LRH and MSH created a Liberian Corporation called the
Religious Research Foundation with numbered bank accounts in Liechtenstein.
The RRF and these bank accounts were dominated and controlled by LRH. In
excess of 100 million dollars belonging to the Church of Scientology was
illegally transferred into the RRF accounts, for the personal control and
use of LRH. This constituted unlawful inurement.
After LRH died, these funds were then within the estate of LRH where they
came to be in the possession, custody and control of Norman Starkey,
executor of LRH's estate. It is alleged that these funds were then illegally
seized and stolen by David Miscavige in a fraud perpetrated on LRH's heirs.
3 December 1972
The Apollo has been under repair in Lisbon, Portugal. LRH meets Jim
Denkelsey and Paul Preston there and they fly to the U.S. He lives in
Queens, New York for about 10 months before returning to the ship.
June 1973
Due to an off-hand remark by a US District Court judge that the government
knew something incriminating about Hubbard, LRH writes the Snow White
program. The Snow White program was for the G.O. Intelligence Bureau to
obtain all government files on Scientology.
15 September 1974
Cindy Raymond is working for the United States Guardian's Office
Intelligence Bureau located in Los Angeles. To comply with the Snow White
program, Cindy recruits Gerald Wolfe to infiltrate the IRS offices in
Washington D.C.
18 November 1974
Gerald Wolfe is hired as a clerk by the IRS in Washington, D.C. For the next
two years, he and Michael Meisner steal and copy IRS and Department of
Justice files on Scientology. Many illegal acts were committed. Electronic
intercepting of oral IRS communications, forging government passes,
infiltrating the government, stealing records belonging to the IRS, Justice
Department, and the US Attorney's Office.
Note:
They found the OT materials in government files: more evidence the church
was infiltrated.
It should be understood that the Guardian's Office had an Intelligence
Bureau. It was this Bureau that committed various crimes. This Bureau
investigated enemies of the Church, including infiltrating enemy groups with
spies. It was charged with obtaining enemy files on the Church. It was
common for illegal methods to be used to obtain enemy files, such as using
lock picks and even breaking and entering.
The Intelligence Bureau was also charged with handling enemies and has its
own tech for doing so. Part of its tech was to try and locate crimes that
had been committed by the person attacking Scientology and have them
arrested for those crimes. If no actual crimes could be found, then black
operations were used to set the person up for crimes he actually did not
commit. An example would be planting illegal drugs on him and calling the
police, who would arrest him for possession of illegal drugs.
Other Intelligence Bureau handling tech was to use hate and protect buttons.
The way this worked was to find out what the enemy's boss hated and then set
up circumstances to make the enemy guilty of those things in the eyes of his
boss. If his boss hates homosexuals, the black operation would be to have
homosexuals call the boss at work and ask to talk to the enemy. The end
result was to make the boss think the enemy was a homosexual, hate him for
it, resulting in the boss firing the enemy.
Another example of a black operation, using the protect button. Find out
what the enemy is trying to protect and threaten it. Let's say the enemy is
trying to protect his marriage. Threaten to destroy his marriage. Have a
prostitute call the wife and say she slept with the enemy. The end result is
the enemy stops attacking Scientology to protect his marriage.
Following are a few of the actual black operations done by the Intelligence
Bureau:
Paulette Cooper wrote an anti-Scientology book. Intelligence agents mailed
out a bomb threat on her stationary, making it appear that Cooper had done
it. This got the FBI after her.
Another intelligence operation was done to Cooper. An agent became her
boyfriend. The boyfriend then reinforced and played upon Cooper's suicidal
tendencies in the hopes that she would commit suicide.
In 1976 Clearwater Mayor Gabe Cazares was involved in litigation with the
Church. One of the intelligence black operations run on him was an attempt
to implicate him in a staged hit and run accident. Another intelligence
operation done on him was that arrangements were made to have an attorney by
the name of Merrit Vanniere, a Scientologist, represesent Mr. Cazares and
sabotage his case.
The above gives you a clear picture of the daily work of Scientology's
Intelligence Bureau.
The disbanding of the G.O. did not change any of this, it operates exactly
the same way now.
Scientology's criminal intelligence bureau is run by the Religious
Technology Center (RTC).
1975
Jacqueline Van Der Linde and others move in to Clearwater, Florida under the
cover of a front group called "The United Churches of Florida". Their real
purpose is to establish the Flag Land Base there, which they do. Attacks
from the Clearwater community result when they learn that the United
Churches of Florida is a front for the Church of Scientology.
During this time MSH has several flaps with Pat Broeker over financial
matters and she busts him off of several posts. (Pat Broeker is a Sea Org
member posted in CMO.)
During 1975 & 1976, while Wolfe and Meisner were stealing IRS documents,
Meade Emory is the Assistant to the Commissioner of the IRS. This is
important because in 1982 Meade Emory is a co-founder of the Church of
Spiritual Technology, which comes to own all of the Scientology copyrights
after LRH's death!
30 June 1976
Gerald Wolfe is arrested by the FBI for use and possession of a forged
government pass.
This eventually leads to a warrant on Michael Meisner, who eventually
defected and told them about their criminal actions in the Snow White
program. This results in the 1977 FBI raid.
Note: Who tipped the FBI off about Wolfe?
1977
At this time Scientology has two management arms. The Guardian Office for
external affairs and the Commodore's Messenger Organization (CMO) for
internal affairs. The Guardian's Office was run by Mary Sue Hubbard. CMO ran
Scientology itself, under the direct command of LRH, contrary to public
statements that he had resigned all management responsibilities in 1966.
7 July 1977
The FBI raids USGO. They obtain box loads of evidence that proves the crimes
of Scientology's intelligence bureau. MSH and 10 others are later convicted
and go to jail. Thus, the beginning of a group engram was laid in.
LRH and MSH are living together in La Quinta, California at the time. They
spend the next week discussing how to handle their legal situation. Then, he
leaves La Quinta with Pat Broeker and goes to Sparks, Nevada.
After the raid, the USGO Intelligence bureau had nightly all hands to
destroy evidence of crimes in their remaining intelligence files. It went on
for months. At the same time, Vicki Aznaran participates in a massive
document destruction program undertaken to destroy any evidence that LRH
controlled Scientology. Vaughn Young also participated in all of this
destruction of evidence.
July 1977
Shortly after LRH arrived in Sparks, cash was needed so Pat Broeker
contacted his soon-wife-to-be, who was the Deputy Commanding Officer of the
CMO in Clearwater. They arranged between them for Annie to bring one million
dollars in cash from the church.
Annie brought the cash to Pat in a briefcase, and turned it over to him at
an airport.
This is the point where Broeker starts to cut the line between LRH and MSH
by editing letters between them. Over time, Miscavige and Broeker
systematically eliminate all of LRH's comm lines except their own.
Gradually, every single person with whom Ron has a comm line, including his
wife and children, must communicate via the Broekers. Finally, the Broekers
are the only ones in direct comm with Ron.
1977
The IRS issues a notice of deficiency (regarding tax exemption) to the
Church of Scientology of California. CSC appeals the decision.
2 January 1978
LRH arrives back in La Quinta and MSH has to leave because she is under FBI
scrutiny.
1978
In Founding Church of Scientology v Webster, the church sued FBI director
William Webster, alleging that the FBI was harassing Scientologists for no
permissable reason.
The church filed this complaint in 1978, the same year in which MSH and
eight other high ranking Church officials admitted in a plea agreement that
"the network of Scientology organizations had conducted a broad campaign
against US government entities particularly the IRS." The court noted that
the same government investigations the Church complained about were
justified by, and a result of, the church's own illegal behavior.
1978
LRH is convicted in absentia in Lyon, France. Sentenced to 4 years in prison
for fraudulent claims he could cure physical illness.
September 1978
LRH has another stroke. (He had his first stroke in June 1975.) Mayo arrived
to give LRH assists and LRH was barely conscious. Dr. Denk told Mayo that
LRH could die at any moment because his heart was not beating normally. The
assists went on for 3 weeks and from those assists came the seeds that
became NOTS.
Ron's illness was an additional excuse to further edit incoming
communication to him to keep all this "bad news" off of his lines.
NOTS is released this year.
April 1979
Mayo goes to Hemet, California and gives LRH assists again because LRH had
just had a cancer operation on the front of his head. They work together on
refining NOTS.
Mid 1979
Annie Broeker is working for CMO in Clearwater. MSH is also there operating
out of the G.O. Annie is meddling in G.O. affairs and MSH eventually has had
it with her and forces her off post. Annie is then sent back to INT as
useless on management lines.
1 September 1979
A major change in church management takes place. The Commodores Messenger
Org International takes over all church management and the Watch Dog
Committee is set up.
LRH orders that messengers who hold management posts are not to stand
watches for him, leaving them free to hold their management position full
time. He ordered to send two messengers to work with him on a permanent
basis who are of no great value on management lines. The two people chosen
are Pat and Annie Broeker.
David Miscavige is posted as Action Chief in CMO International.
15 December 1979
LRH executes a will. Ron's tax lawyer, Norton S. Karno is named as Executor.
Late February 1980
LRH is living in Hemet, California a few miles from Gilman Hot Springs where
Mayo is.
He is auditing Solo NOTS and sending his daily sessions to Mayo. Mayo does
any review auditing needed on LRH.
The Tampa Grand Jury is convened. Fearing indictment in the Snow White case,
LRH leaves the base in Hemet, and goes into hiding for the last 6 years of
his life. The only people he could see taking with him, because they were
not needed on management lines, were Pat and Annie Broeker. This was the
last time LRH was seen.
Mary Sue and 10 others are indicted for conspiring to steal federal
government documents. It was only by the narrowest of margins that LRH was
not indicted but he was named as an unindicted co-conspirator.
One of the purposes of the GO was to keep any legal threats "at arm's
length" from LRH. However, the incriminating documents obtained in the FBI
raid opened a floodgate of lawsuits naming LRH because it was now clear the
entire organization was operating under his command. Thus he remained in
hiding to avoid any subpoenas.
He settled on his ranch at Creston near San Luis Obispo, Ca. Only Pat and
Annie Broeker had direct comm with him.
While in seclusion, LRH is engaged in research and writing. Over the next
few years he writes 11 science fiction novels.
1980
Julie Mayo becomes SNR C/S INT Assistant. She helps SNR C/S INT, David Mayo,
write Solo NOTs. She also personally wrote some of the original Solo NOTs
checksheet.
Summer 1980
Back in 1975, when GO intelligence agents infiltrated the federal government
and obtained their files on Scientology, it was discovered that the old OT
levels were in the hands of the federal government. Even the IRS had a copy
of the old OT levels in their files.
Remember the earlier part of this time track about the CIA's "remote
viewing" program at Stanford Research Institute, (which is not shut down
and continues to operate). The U.S. Intelligence community was in the
business of making "psychic spies". They were using LRH technology to create
people who could exteriorize and then spy for them. Therefore, they took an
interest in the OT levels and obviously infiltrated the Church and stole the
old OT levels and used them to make their own OTs.
But, with the development of NOTS and the new OT levels, the U.S.
intelligence community did not have this material yet. Therefore, they sent
in a new plant to steal the new OT levels. The plant was sent in by US Air
Force Intelligence. There were over 100 men waiting to do the new OT levels
at an Air Force base in Georgia.
The plant started out by stealing technical materials from ASHO and sending
it back to the Air Force base in Georgia. The plant was then attempting to
get on AOLA lines to steal the new OT levels, when he was caught by GO
security personnel.
The plant knew about the Remote Viewing Program at SRI. The plant said that
the U.S. Intelligence community considered Scientology to be a national
security threat. The reason they consider it a threat is that beings who can
exteriorize could spy on them. Furthermore, the guidance system on nuclear
weapons is a magnetic field and it was proven at SRI that an OT can
influence a magnetic field with his thought.
Therefore, the U.S. Intelligence community wanted the new OT levels in their
hands. They wanted the new OT levels, not only for their own international
spying, but for nuclear war defense. They thought that if Russia fired
nuclear missiles at the U.S., that their OTs could make them turn around and
go back down the hole it was fired from.
1981
Delivery of OT 7, SOLO NOTS, begins.
January 1981
A telex comes down to Miscavige, establishing Mission All Clear (MAC). There
are 35 liability cases against the church and many of them name LRH as a
defendant. Miscavige is the head of the unit. The purpose of this unit was
to extricate LRH from all of the lawsuits that had been filed naming him as
the head of the Church.
Because this is so "confidential and sensitive", Miscavige forms a direct
comm line with Broeker, by-passing all of his CMO seniors and the Watchdog
Committee. Miscavige then began to systematically eliminate all of the other
members of the All Clear Committee.
March 1981
MSH is in close communication with Laurel Sullivan and other staff of a
project called Mission Corporate Category Sort-Out, MCCS. The project was to
create a new corporate structure to protect LRH from criminal and civil
litigation. These staff had knowledge about inurement to LRH and the
conspiracy to cover it up.
The MCCS meetings were recorded on audio tape. Later, the Ninth Circuit
Court reviews the tapes and says they contain evidence of intent to defraud
the IRS and thus they were not protected by the attorney-client privilege.
As Action Chief of CMO Int., David Miscavige sends missions to investigate
the G.O. Their attempts to get information were thwarted by MSH. MSH cut all
of their communications to the G.O., except through her.
April 1981
David Miscavige says (in an affidavit later): without MSH's knowledge, he
sent a mission to GO headquarters in England in April 1981. They inspected
the Legal Bureau under the guise that MSH had authorized it. They found the
GO had mismanaged the Church's legal affairs and was not following policy.
They found the GO staff had committed crimes against the US Government and
others.
Note:
This is nuts. The raid had already happened. It was no secret that the G.O.
had crimes. Indictments from Grand Juries had been handed down and the G.O.
had already admitted guilt in a plea bargain. LRH was with MSH on the day of
the raid and they spent a week discussing what to do. So, LRH would not have
been wanting to "infiltrate" the G.O. to "make the discovery" the G.O. had
crimes. He already knew. And, if he wanted the G.O. taken apart, all he
would have needed to do was tell MSH that and she would have complied.
This adds up to a CMO conspiracy to seize all that LRH & MSH owned, with the
Broekers and Miscavige as the key participants, (and a few co-conspirator
attorneys).
May 1981
MSH is Controller and she holds control over the corporate structure of
Scientology, as well as all of the trademarks and copyrights.
Then, attorney Sherman Lenske appears on the scene claiming to be LRH's
personal attorney.
Two months later, MSH gets overthrown from her Controller post and Lenske is
instrumental in the corporate restructuring of all of Scientology. A year
later he is a co-founder of the Church of Spiritual Technology, which
eventually comes to have control over every intellectual property that LRH
and MSH had ever owned or controlled.
Another co-founder of the Church of Spiritual Technology (CST) is Meade
Emory. He was the Assistant to the Commissioner of the IRS in 1975 and 1976,
when the FBI caught Wolfe and Meisner stealing IRS documents, leading to the
FBI raid and the overthrow of MSH and the Guardian's Office by CMO staff -
the Broekers and Miscavige.
HCOPL 14 June 1965 Politics, Freedom From: "… the United States government
and the efforts of that government since 1955, stepped up since 1963, TO
SEIZE SCIENTOLOGY RATHER THAN FORBID OR STOP IT…"
June 1981
Miscavige, along with Pat and Annie Broeker, decided that the Guardian's
Office must be eliminated. He gathered a couple of dozen Church executives
and they planned a series of missions to take over the G.O.
June 1981
LRH appoints Bill Franks to the post of ED International and ordered Franks
to become a signatory on certain bank accounts in Luxembourg containing
about 150 million dollars. Between now and December 1981, there is a
conflict between Franks and Miscavige over control of these bank accounts.
1 July 1981
David Miscavige arranges a meeting with Mary Sue Hubbard, based on a lie. He
calls her on the phone and implies that he has comm for her from LRH.
They get together, but the letter he promised simply did not exist. What he
did arrive with was a letter he had had written by church attorneys,
(Sherman Lenske & Meade Emory ?) stating erroneously that Mary Sue's
presence as the controller of the church endangered and implicated LRH in
all church matters. Based on this letter and other conversations that the
two of them had, Mary Sue was eventually persuaded to step down as
controller.
Miscavige's exchanges with MSH were extremely bitter and he brags around INT
for some weeks thereafter about calling her a suppressive bitch and some
other names.
Important Note:
The above is fraud. He obtained control through fraud. The attorneys gave
her false legal advice to get her to resign and let Miscavige take over.
7 July 1981
Twenty CMO missionaires, headed by Vicki Aznaran, were sent to the St. Hill
and Los Angeles Guardian Offices, hoping to simply take over the G.O. Prior
to this takeover, power was distributed between the CMO and the G.O. And
they acted, to some degree, as a check and balance on one another. This was
going to be the elimination of that check and balance and was considered to
be a very important operation.
In Los Angeles, the takeover went smoothly until Jane Kember, Guardian World
Wide, is encountered. She barricaded herself in her office and refused to be
unseated. The missionaires manage to get an appointment with her and she is
intractable. The missionaires then send a telex back to INT and two more
missionaires are sent out to handle the situation.
What was decided is that a fake telex is going to be constructed, allegedly
from LRH, that will order Jane Kember to step down and let the CMO take over
the G.O. This telex is typed on the spot by the missionaires from INT, it is
put in a folder that contains other legitimate LRH telexes and another
meeting is arranged with Jane Kember.
Jane is given the folder of telexes to read, she sees the telex ordering
that she step down and that the CMO be allowed to take over the Guardian's
Office and that action is done. That is the end of the G.O. and now the CMO
and ultimately Miscavige and Pat and Annie Broeker now run the entire
church.
This is also fraud. They tricked the Guardian into resigning and letting
Miscavige take over by making her think that LRH ordered her to do it.
A Reign of Terror begins, followed by the Golden Age of Squirreling, as
follows:
Miscavige established and headed a unit called "Special Project". From this
position he ran the entirety of Scientology. He staffed it with 15 people
who took over the functions of the GO bureaus. Some of the staff were Norman
Starkey, Lyman Spurlock, Terri Gamboa and Vaughn and Stacy Young.
These people now ran the Intelligence, PR, and Legal functions previously
run by the GO. The primary focus was on the Mission All Clear, in the legal
division of the GO. The purpose of this unit was to extricate LRH from all
of the lawsuits that had been filed naming him as the head of the Church.
Miscavige was personally charged with extricating LRH from pending
litigation so LRH could come out of hiding.
Later, the Guardian's Office functions of handling external matters, such as
Intelligence, PR, and Legal are given a new name, the Office of Special
Affairs (OSA). Miscavige now runs all of Scientology, both external and
internal matters. The only people senior to Miscavige are Pat and Annie
Broker, who work directly under LRH.
Fall 1981
Miscavige says that a concern of LRH's was that his personal affairs be
handled independently of any church activities. The IRS raised concerns
regarding LRH's relationship to Scientology churches. LRH wanted to have his
personal affairs managed and to put an end to any concerns about his
relationship to any Scientology churches. So, his personal attorneys advised
and were the architects of a for-profit corporation that addressed these
needs. Thus Author Services Incorporated (ASI) was formed to manage the
personal, business and literary affairs of LRH, including his financial and
legal matters.
In addition to ASI, another for-profit corporation is formed, Bridge
Publications Inc. (BPI)
It publishes and distributes the Scientology Scriptures, including books and
recorded tapes, and manufactures, repairs and distributes E-Meters. It also
publishes and distributes LRH fiction works. New Era Publications performs
the same activities for countries outside of the US.
ASI, BPI, and NEP are all for-profit companies. They pay royalties directly
to LRH and his successors, which includes Religious Technology Center (RTC)
and Church of Spiritual Technology (CST). (Therefore the IRS denies
tax-exempt status to RTC and CST).
October 1981
MSH and 10 aides appeal their conviction of conspiracy. MSH and 10 aides go
to jail. With her and the Guardian and other key executives in jail and LRH
hiding, elements of the Sea Org moved in to take command.
The last thing done by Miscavige is a complete corporate restructuring. He
says he does this to ensure a "new GO" could never come about. He says the
GO had become entirely autonomous and corrupt. He says part of the measures
taken to ensure a similar situation could never occur again was the
formation of Religious Technology Center (RTC).
Note:
As you will learn later in this time track, RTC is autonomous and is also
corrupt.
It is the "new GO". Intelligence and legal activities are commanded from
RTC.
The illegal activities of the GO Intelligence Bureau did not stop, they were
continued by Miscavige and other RTC execs.
Vicki Aznaran says throughout her Presidency of RTC, that fair game actions
against enemies were commonplace. Fair game activities included burglaries,
assaults, disruption of businesses owned by enemies, spying, harassing
investigations and litigation, abuse of confidential communications in
parishioner files, destruction of evidence, etc.
Lyman Spurlock is a Sea Org member who is also a Certified Public
Accountant. Miscavige assigned Lyman Spurlock the task of sorting out the
Scientology corporations so they would be legally defensible in the eyes of
the IRS. It was at this point that the huge conglomeration known as Church
of Scientology of California, was split into many corporations. Lyman worked
out the whole shell, including the relationships between the different
echelons.
This corporate restructuring is to obtain legal and tax advantages. The
complex corporate structure serves as a shield to protect LRH from criminal
and civil litigation. Its purpose was also to create an impenetrable,
legally defensible network of corporations such that the IRS or other
government agency could not "pierce the corporate veil" of Scientology
organizations, thereby freeing Scientology management to transfer funds
between organizations without concern for the law.
In simple terms, the corporate re-organization is to hide the fact that LRH
runs Scientology and personally receives the money from the Churches. (The
non-profit money from the Churches is laundered through the profit making
corporations.)
13 October 1981
Attorney Sherman Lenske incorporates Author Services Incorporated (ASI).
David Miscavige is CEO & Chairman of the Board - Norman Starkey is
President.
Attorney Sherman Lenske, on behalf of Miscavige, Spurlock and Starkey and
several others, incorporates ASI which becomes the corporate entity
controlling Church of Scientology bank accounts and assets. In fact, the
officers and directors of ASI possessed no authority from any Church of
Scientology corporation to control its bank accounts and property.
This was earlier called "Special Project", headed by David
Miscavige and so is ASI.
At this time ASI is higher on the chain of command than RTC.
Jesse Prince says that ASI, LRH's literary agency, is really used as the
clearing house for LRH orders to Church of Scientology International, etc.
The staff of ASI received their orders from LRH and his aide who lived with
him, Pat Broeker. When DM was COB ASI, the staff of ASI commanded and ran
the entire Scientology network.
From 1982 to 1986 LRH would dictate his orders into a dictaphone. Pat and
Annie Broeker would take the tape to Susie Bennick at Gilman Hot Springs,
Ca. She would issue despatches to various executives at ASI, RTC, CSI, CST
and CSC. David Miscavige oversaw the transcribing operation and enforced
compliance to LRH orders. While Miscavige was COB ASI the staff of ASI ran
the entire Scientology network. ASI had complete control over the management
of all of Scientology.
DM makes the following ASI appointments:
Vicki Aznaran says that ASI was incorporated to be the funnel through which
profits from Scientology Churches were channeled to LRH.
Stacy Young says that she and all ASI staff were instructed that making
large amounts of money for LRH was an integral part of running Scientology.
LRH's (perhaps Broeker's?) communications to ASI staff made it clear that
he felt justified in taking as much money out of the Church as Miscavige &
ASI staff could get away with. Miscavige's success or failure was based on
how much money he could make for LRH, whether it came from the Church or
other sources.
Accordingly, Miscavige made sure as much money as possible was taken from
Church accounts. Treasury Secretary, Fran Harris, thought up "labels" which
were attached to huge lump sums, which Miscavige then ordered transferred
from non profit Church accounts, into ASI accounts every week. These labels
were designed to conceal from the IRS the true nature of the transfers.
Miscavige made Lyman Spurlock responsible for working out the legal details
of these transfers. Stacy Young, as Org Officer, often had to calm Lyman
down after he had been ordered to legitimize some of Fran Harris'
money-making ideas. Lyman said he had serious disagreements with Fran about
the legality of some of her schemes. Miscavige would always tell Lyman to
"make it legal".
The line was that Pat Broeker would tell David Miscavige to bring hundreds
of thousands or millions of dollars for LRH. Miscavige would bring the money
in a briefcase to Las Vegas. Pat would meet him there and then take the
briefcase of money back to LRH.
Note: Or so they say. Wonder if they kept some or all of it?
November 1981
David Miscavige has Bill Franks locked in a room for several weeks while DM
assumed control over all Scientology corporate bank accounts, and other
assets. DM was represented by attorneys Sherman Lenske and John Peterson and
paid them millions for their assistance in this unauthorized and illegal
takeover.
November 1981
Richard Murray incorporates Church of Scientology International (CSI).
The articles of incorporation state:
The corporation shall present and propagate the religion of Scientology as
founded and as it may further be developed by LRH.
The heads of the following CSI units comprise the "Watchdog Committee".
Heber Jentzsch is President of CSI and he has no command power at all. He is
a figurehead and his duties are solely to deal with media and other PR
groups.
CSI is licensed by RTC and is under the command of RTC and ASI.
Golden Era Film Production studio is located at Gilman Hot Springs, near
Hemet, Ca. This also houses CSI. It is called "the Base" and it is where
Miscavige has his primary office and residence. It is an 800 acre facility
that is heavily fortified, with a high mountain lookout, bunkers, and has
assault weapons and bombs.
Mithoff is said to have taken LSD 1000 times. He is said to maintain a
secret list of deaths where the Scientologist was C/Sed to "end cycle",
meaning let the body die. This has been done in cases where the person was
terminally ill.
Late 1981
David Mayo receives many messages from LRH over the next eight months.
Amongst other things, LRH suggested that Mayo develop a Happiness Rundown,
which Mayo did. When the rundown and course was complete, auditors and C/Ses
from around the world came to ASHO where Mayo personally taught the course
and interneship.
December 1981
According to Miscavige, LRH had no knowledge of MSH resignation and the
disbanding of the GO until 5 months later. This would place his being
informed in December. DM says LRH had two reactions:
1) He felt satisfaction that ethical Scientologists had shown initiative and
acted.
2) On the other hand, the actions of the GO and Mission Holders, and the
inaction of some of the ecclesiastical staff caused him great concern about
the future of the religion and how it would accomplish its mission in his
absence when he was no longer alive in body.
DM says he was not involved in the corporate restructuring. He says LRH
insisted on handling his own affairs with regard to his relationship with
the religion as its Founder. As the source of the religion's Scriptures, LRH
held the intellectual property rights of Dianetics and Scientology, through
the ownership of both the religious trademarks and the copyrights to the
Scripture. To accomplish his goal in seeing to the future of the religion he
founded, LRH employed his own attorneys to be the architects of his estate
planning. It was under these circumstances that two brand new churches came
into being. (RTC & CST)
Having learned of GO corruption and having learned that several responsible
persons in ecclesiastical management had failed to act, LRH determined that
the future of the religion could not depend on a management body alone. To
ensure he could maintain the standard and orthodox practice of the religion,
LRH had registered all of the Dianetics and Scientology trademarks. While
ecclesiastical means would most often suffice to see to orthodoxy,
trademarks also provided a legal means to prevent unorthodox use.
Over the years, many individuals had attempted to create splinter churches
of Scientology, using a perverted version of the subject. Through the legal
power of the trademarks, such offshoots could be prevented or at least
prevented from misleading people by representing themselves as orthodox
Scientology. LRH decided to donate the trademarks to the religion but he
insisted that any church to whom he donated them be entirely independent of
any management body involved in the day-to-day affairs of ministering to the
religion and its parishioners. RTC was created for this reason: to receive
the Dianetics and Scientology trademarks and thus be responsible only for
orthodoxy.
LRH also wanted to ensure his copyrights to the extensive library of
Scientology Scripture would be used for the benefit of the religion, and not
for the benefit of any one person or persons. And again, while
ecclesiastical means would usually be all that was needed to maintain
orthodoxy, LRH had always employed the copyright laws as a means to legally
enforce his rights to prevent alteration of his materials by others.
Also, LRH had often spoken of archiving the Scriptures of Scientology in the
event of a catastrophe. Harking back to the concern for the future of the
religion and in light of the events of the early 1980s, LRH furthered
reasoned that yet another independent church body should receive his
copyrights.
Even though RTC would be the recipient of his trademarks, and charged only
with the orthodox application of the religion, LRH felt that even those
duties could distract them from the ultimate preservation of the religion
through archiving its materials in indestructible form.
In an abundance of caution, should any church organization be corrupted
again, he determined that no church should hold both the trademarks and the
copyrights. Thus, to receive his copyrights, Church of Spiritual Technology
was formed. CST's function is purely archival in nature. CST preserves the
written Scripture on stainless steel plates, the recorded word on nickel
plated recordings, and places all of it in titanium containers stored in
vaults constructed to withstand nuclear explosions or other cataclysmic
events.
CST also stands as the ultimate safeguard of the Scientology religion should
the entire religion, even RTC, ever deviate from the pure Scientology
religious teachings.
The GO had already demonstrated the danger of corrupt officials. While
powers of persuasion and internal justice procedures had corrected the GO
problem, this safeguard was considered insufficient should a similar problem
recur in the future. LRH reasoned that involvement in day-to-day affairs was
the only way any individual could ever be seduced into unethical activity.
Hence, LRH suggested that these new church corporations should have
Trustees. As Trustees, they we would have no authority in the conduct of
corporate affairs, with neither the ability to give orders or directions,
nor perform any corporate activities whatsoever. Their only authority would
be to appoint or remove directors.
Since they would not be involved in corporate affairs it was expected they
would not become involved in any potential corporate malfeasance or
dereliction of corporate duties and bylaws. Since there would be several
Trustees, no individual Trustee could subvert the corporate structure or
Board of Directors by moving themselves into a position as a Director. As a
result, there would be layers of safeguards ensuring corporate integrity,
while also providing a mechanism to ensure no church could ever again be
corrupted without a mechanism for rectifying the problem.
The restructuring of other churches of Scientology was not part of LRH's
estate plan, although it evolved out of the same desire to ensure the future
of the religion, not just following the death of its Founder, but for all
time.
RTC did not come out of Church of Scientology California, but was a brand
new organization, established precisely because the role it is charged with
performing did not exist in the religion and the religion almost collapsed
because no church performed that function.
December 1981
Bill Franks holds a Mission Holders conference to address expansion plans
for the religion.
There are two meetings, the first one in Clearwater, Florida, the second one
in San Francisco.
Miscavige says he was invited to their meeting to give them an explanation
of what happened to the G.O.
According to Miscavige, this turned into a "mutiny meeting" by some of these
Mission Holders. The Mission Holders were protesting new demands for more
money and more control being exerted over them. With all of the shakeups and
LRH being unable to appear the Mission Holders were threatening to revolt.
Franks agreed to their plans to make themselves an outside advisory board to
ecclesiastical management.
1 January 1982
Attorney Sherman Lenske incorporates Religious Technology Center (RTC).
Miscavige is a Trustee of RTC, giving him the power to appoint and remove
Directors.
Warren McShane is President.
Steve Marlow is Inspector General.
Later, Miscavige replaces Marlow with Vicki Aznaran and then replaces Vicki
with Greg Wilhere. Miscavige maintains absolute control over all officers
and board members of RTC by possessing undated, signed resignations of each
member.
RTC licenses all other Scientology organizations to sell Dianetics and
Scientology.
This gives it command control over every Scientology corporation and
Scientologist, (except the later formed Church of Spiritual Technology).
RTC's Articles of Incorporation state:
It is formed by Terri Gamboa, David Mayo, Norman Starkey, Phoebe Maurer,
Lyman Spurlock, Julia Watson, and David Miscavige. The corporate affairs
shall be regulated by a Board of 7 persons who shall be designated Trustees,
which Board shall have and exercise all powers given to "Directors" by
California nonprofit corporate law.
This corporation is organized and shall be operated for the primary purpose
of ensuring and maintaining the purity and integrity of the religion of
Scientology by acting as a vehicle for guaranteeing the ethical propagation,
worship, and administration of the religious faith, doctrines and practice
of Scientology, to regulate and conduct religious services for its
congregation, to foster and enhance the spiritual welfare of the followers
of Scientology, to espouse such evidence of the Supreme Being and human
spirit as may be knowable to man and by their use to bring greater
tranquility, order and survival to man in the external world, and to
propagate and disseminate the Church Creed in accordance with the religious
faith of Scientology as laid down by the Founder, LRH and as set forth in
the by-laws.
Article VII:
a) To act as Trustee under any trust incidental to the principle objects of
this corporation, to receive and expend funds and property subject to such
trust, subject always to the terms and provisions of the instrument by which
such trust is created.
b) The corporation is to have power and authority of a head organization, to
create subordinate corporations, to issue charters to such subordinate
corporations and have the articles of subordinate corporations require the
dissolution of such subordinate corporations whenever the charter issued by
this corporation is taken away from it. Also, the assets of the subordinate
corporation go to RTC upon dissolution of the subordinate corporation.
The corporation has no members.
No part of its assets shall ever inure to the benefit of any private party
or individual.
If the corporation is dissolved, its assets shall be distributed to one or
more nonprofit funds, foundations, trusts or corporations which are
organized and operated exclusively for religious purposes and which are
entitled to tax exempt status.
Note: In an affidavit later David Miscavige says the following about RTC:
RTC is not part of Church management, nor is it involved in the daily
affairs of various Church of Scientology organizations. RTC exists to see
that Dianetics and Scientology technology is safeguarded, is in good hands,
and is properly used. RTC was formed with the specific purpose of seeing
that the religion of Scientology was kept pure and true to the source
materials of the religion.
The authority of RTC stems from the ownership of the trademarks of Dianetics
and Scientology. In brief, RTC's maintenance of these trademarks is
threefold:
As Chairman of the Board he is interested in the standard application of the
Scripture of Scientology as detailed in HCOP/Ls and HCOBs and the spoken
words of LRH in tapes and films. He inspects and corrects departures from
the standard application of the Scripture of the religion. I also ensure
that any attempted perversion of the technology of Dianetics and Scientology
is rapidly dealt with, to keep the religion pure so that all people may
benefit from the application of Mr. Hubbard's breakthroughs in the fields of
the mind, spirit and life.
He also oversees the affairs of RTC in its function of verifying that the
source writings of the religion are kept pure. This specifically includes
the verification that the materials representing themselves as being
Dianetics and Scientology are in fact that, and that they honestly reflect
the source writings of the religion by L. Ron Hubbard.
He says he is the ecclesiastical leader of the religion.
Note:
As you will see on this time track, this shows he is Treason on his post. He
has betrayed the trust of LRH and all Scientologists by allowing the
re-writing and altering of a vast majority of LRH's tech in books, HCOBs and
tapes.
Also, what he doesn't say is that this is how he controls all of
Scientology. If they don't do what he wants, he will pull their license to
use Dianetics and Scientology materials. Lyman Spurlock arranged for RTC to
have contracts with every single corporation that uses Hubbard and
Scientology trademarks and copyrights in any way. The real purpose of these
contracts was to have a legal means to collect money from these entities and
to put anyone out of business who refused to tow the line dictated by LRH or
his successors.
The purpose of RTC was ostensibly to hold the trademarks in the event of
Ron's death.
What actually was accomplished is that the entire church and all
Scientologists came under the authority of RTC by virtue of the fact that
one's authority to use the trademarks could be removed at any time by this
group. This essentially put David Miscavige not only in charge of the entire
church but in charge of every single Scientologist. He could simply come
down on any Scientologist that he chose to at will.
There was some concern that the trademarks would pass into the public domain
because LRH had been claiming that he had been off management lines since
1966. Therefore, he had not been in the position where he was responsible
for and controlling the trademarks for the last 16 years.
The church attorneys were terrified that these trademarks would eventually
be lost and so RTC was a necessity. (Sounds like Sherman Lenske advised the
creation of RTC. More bad legal advice to the Hubbards?)
In fact, of course, what was really going on was that Miscavige was
individuating himself from the church because he feared that the church
management structure would eventually find a way to remove him. And by
setting up RTC and putting himself outside the reach of the church, he
assured himself of a position that would be irrevocable.
February 1982
Vaughn Young is invited by Miscavige to join "Special Project" to head up
the PR section.
The idea was forwarded to LRH who approved Vaughn's appointment in
mid-February. Vaughn was then informed that "Special Project" (and Miscavige
was Special Project i/c) was in reality ASI but they could not admit it yet.
ASI was formed as a for-profit corporation on the guise that it was
Hubbard's literary agency. While it had that function, its actual function
was to be LRH's contact point back into the Scientology organization. (He
was gone from the ship and had no viable command channels because he was
in hiding.)
The staff of ASI reported to LRH and LRH issued orders to the staff, which
they then issued down into the organization, thus making ASI the senior
entitity in the Scientology hierarchy. This did not come easy because LRH
was prevented from saying that ASI was his replacement for Flag because that
would have defeated the entire purpose and linked him back to the non-profit
churches. So, there was considerable arm-twisting and threats and demotions
as Miscavige and ASI consolidated its power over the very Sea Org units that
had been in control.
All ASI staff had to write a weekly report to LRH. Miscavige repeatedly
rejected their reports, until they were perfectly worded to appear that
Miscavige had everything fully under control. No one could send anything to
LRH without being edited by Miscavige. This meant that LRH effectively did
not know what was really going on from 1981 until his death.
It was during this time until Ron's death, that Miscavige began
systematically replacing LRH as the head of Scientology.
Because ASI was at the top of the Scientology empire, it was often the site
of meetings with various officers from different Scientology organizations.
They had come to learn that ASI staff were now Hubbard's personal
representatives and spoke for him so the ASI boardroom became the site of
clandestine meetings of various corporations so LRH's orders could be
issued. Of course, this was all quite illegal since ASI was a for-profit
corporation and we were issuing orders to non-profit entities. They had
simply replaced the earlier structure and disregarded corporate lines as
they had always disregarded corporate lines. The difference was that the
power was no longer distributed between the GO and the SO but held in one
place: Miscavige and the ASI he controlled.
ASI was the site of meetings (often chaired by Miscavige) that directed
legal strategies, telling different corporations and their attorneys what to
do, what to sell and how much money should come to ASI, which was then
funneled into Hubbard's personal accounts. If anyone disagreed they were
removed and replaced with someone who complied.
Throughout this period LRH issued his orders as "advices", rather than
"orders", and attempts were made to make him a "consultant". In truth, LRH
was fully in command as much as he had been when he was on the ship Apollo.
Miscavige was in charge of ASI and he had assumed the title of Chairman of
the Board of ASI so he could claim that he was not the Executive Director or
an officer of ASI. This was done to give him an "arm's length" protection,
just like LRH, to avoid any litigation. But, titles aside, there was never
any question in the minds of the Scientology hierarchy who was in charge,
Miscavige.
March 1982
Between March and November 1982, LRH, Pat Broeker, David Miscavige, Lyman
Spurlock and others illegally transfer over 30 million dollars of Church of
Scientology funds to the bank accounts of ASI and LRH in Liechtenstein and
Luxembourg. These transfers are based on exaggerated billings by ASI to the
Churches of Scientology.
Attorney Sherman Lenske represents ASI, RTC, CST, and LRH in the fraudulent
transfer of money, property and assets from various Scientology corporations
to LRH personally. Lenske also acted as the probate attorney who prepared
wills and trusts on behalf of LRH.
In violation of their charters, the Board of Directors of each Scientology
corporation were illegally controlled by LRH, Broeker, David Miscavige and
ASI. The goal of this management technique, was to optimize LRH's personal
income in violation of prohibition against personal inurement imposed on
institutions seeking tax exempt status under IRC Section 501(c)(3). This
management maze permits money to be shifted among entities to hide their
profit-making reality and to avoid taxes and judgements.
These funds were then within the estate of LRH so they came to be in the
possession, custody and control of Norman Starkey, executor of LRH's estate.
It is alleged these funds were then illegally seized and stolen by David
Miscavige in a fraud perpetrated on LRH's heirs.
April 1982
LRH becomes concerned about his own passing away and writes a letter to
David Mayo.
The truth of this letter was confirmed by two RTC missionaires:
LRH did some reminiscing concerning his long term association with Mayo and
Mayo's extensive experience with the tech. LRH said he expected to live for
2 years longer at the most and he wanted Mayo to take over all of his
technical hats, including research.
LRH gave Mayo responsibility for the tech for the next 20-25 years, at which
time LRH would return and reassume his tech hats.
LRH said that Mayo should have a separate corporation to do this work, apart
from Scientology management. LRH also wrote to Lyman Spurlock concerning
setting up this separate corporation for Mayo and his technical research.
LRH was sending almost daily comm to the SNR C/S INT office, praising their
work and assigning them new projects to do.
Note:
David Miscavige has always maintained a "holier than thou" attitude towards
the criminal acts of the Guardian's Office. In his 15 October 1999 affidavit
he says this about the GO:
"What the GO did was illegal. No real Scientologist would ever condone or
even consider such conduct. When we became aware of the GO's activities we
were even more outraged than law enforcement officials and others outside
the Church."
The auditing question for a preclear with a "holier than thou" attitude is:
Do you have a similar overt of your own? Let's see if David does by
reading on.
April 1982
David Miscavige orders payment of $250,000.00 to set up US District Judge
Ben Krentzman in a black operation to frame him with drugs and prostitutes.
A private investigator, Dick Bast, secured a yacht and attempted to lure the
judge on board in order to film him under compromising circumstances. The
judge declined the invitation.
At the same time David Miscavige orders thousands of dollars be given to
attorney Dan Warren in Daytona, Florida to pay off State Circuit Judge James
Durden who was sitting as Justice on a Scientology case.
Note:
Well David, it looks like you do have similar overts of your own.
And by your own words, that makes you not a real Scientologist.
My fellow Scientologists:
I bet you didn't know your donations are paying for David's criminal
activities, did you?
They also pay for his massive squirreling of Ron's tech, as you will soon
see.
28 May 1982
Attorney Sherman Lenske incorporates Church of Spiritual Technology (CST)
dba L. Ron Hubbard Library.
The articles of incorporation state:
Specifically its purpose is to espouse, present, propagate, practice,
ensure, and maintain the purity and integrity of the religion of
Scientology, as the same has been developed and may be further developed by
LRH to the end that any person wishing to, and participating in Scientology
may derive the greatest possible good of the spiritual awareness of his
Beingness, Doingness and Knowingness.
Its purpose is to protect and preserve the religion of Scientology through
establishment of religious scholarship funds, museums, librarys and such
other institutions which will ensure the benefits of Scientology to future
generations. More particularly, the corporation is formed for the
accomplishment, without limitation, of the following more specific purposes:
a. To serve as a means of promulgating, preserving and administering the
religious faith of Scientology throughout the world.
The corporation is dedicated to religious purposes and no part of the income
or assets shall inure to the benefit of any private party.
The corporation has no members.
If the corporation is dissolved, its assets shall be distributed to one or
more nonprofit funds, foundations, trusts or corporations which are
organized and operated exclusively for religious purposes and which are
entitled to tax exempt status.
The articles can only be changed by a unanimous vote of all Directors.
Lyman Spurlock directed the creation of all the Scientology new corporations
in 1981 & 82. He is one of the four co-founders of CST and he is the only
Scientologist among them.
CST is unique in that it is the only Scientology corporation known to have
"Special Directors". It is a secret who these people are.
The reason why nobody knows who these "Special Directors" are, has to do
with California corporate law and IRS codes. In California, only members of
a religious corporation can have access to the corporate records that name
the special directors, trustees, directors and officers. And the CST was set
up specifically to have no members. So it was the founders of CST who made
sure that the identities of the people running it would be forever
protected.
At the top of the CST corporate structure are the "Special Directors". The
command line:
Special Directors: they have the power to elect and remove the Trustees
Trustees - they have the power to elect and remove the Board of Directors
Board of Directors - they have the power to elect and remove the Officers
Officers
A 1992 United States Claims Court case says Sherman Lenske is one of the
"Special Directors". His brother Stephen Lenske and law partner Lawrence
Heller are also.
The same Court case says that there are 4 co-founders for CST:
Sherman Lenske, Meade Emory, Leon Misterek - all tax attorneys and
non-Scientologists
Lyman Spurlock: a CPA who is a Sea Org member
Sherman Lenske:
He was instrumental in the corporate restructuring of all of Scientology. He
also drafted the new last minute will that LRH allegedly signed the day
before his death, giving all of the copyrights to CST. Because of this CST
has control over RTC, ASI, CSI and all Scientology entities. (It is said
that the last minute will was notarized by David Miscavige and a handwriting
expert said LRH's signature is a forgery. We will verify this.)
Meade Emory:
He was Assistant to the Commissioner of the IRS from 1975-1977. This was
when Gerald Wolfe was caught stealing IRS documents for the Guardian's
Office. As a result, the FBI raided, leading to the overthrow of MSH and
dissolution of the Guardian's Office, by David Miscavige. Then, less than a
year later, Emory is a co-founder of CST. And, CST ends up in control of
everything that MSH and the Guardian's Office previously controlled.
Note: I smell something funny.
Lyman Spurlock:
He is the only co-founder who is a Scientologist. As a co-founder, he
apparently appointed himself as one of the Trustees. Then as a Trustee he
elected himself as a Director and then as President (corporate officer).
Later, in 1996 he also holds the post of Tax Compliance Officer in RTC. (Per
the secret agreement that Miscavige made with the IRS in 1993: this makes
him an IRS agent too.)
Leon Misterek:
Little is known about this Seattle attorney. The only comment he would give
about being a CST co-founder was that he did it when he was a law partner
with Meade Emory.
How CST grabbed the copyrights:
The day before his death, LRH's will is changed, handing over control of his
estate to Norman Starkey. Starkey's duties mainly concern transferring about
8,000 copyrighted titles that were left in trust by LRH, to CST.
After Ron's death, Norman Starkey gathers up every LRH copyright in sight
for the next 7 years. Then, on 29 November 1993, right after Miscavige made
the secret agreement with the IRS, he transfers them to CST.
Through a complex series of assignments and agreements, CST owns all of the
copyrights to all works by LRH and all "based on the works of LRH" or
"derived from the works of LRH". In addition to owning and licensing all
copyrights, it possesses the right to seize all Dianetic and Scientology
trademarks and all of Scientology's Advanced Technology.
"CST has the power to dismantle RTC by taking over the religious trademarks
and use of the Advanced Technology, thereby gaining direct control over all
Scientology Organizations..." Church of Spiritual Technology v. United States,
26b CL Ct.713 afff.991 F.2d (sic) (1992).
Thus, CST has ultimate power over the entire domain of all
Scientology-related entities, including RTC.
Jesse Prince says that the attorneys, Lenske and Heller, are also key
players. If you talk about somebody that is running Scientology besides
Miscavige then you look at those attorneys.
HCOPL 14 June 1965 Politics, Freedom From:
"... the United States government and the efforts of that government since
1955, stepped up since 1963, TO SEIZE SCIENTOLOGY RATHER THAN FORBID OR STOP
IT..."
Jesse says they have a secret corporation as a back up in case anything
happens to CST.
So if something happened in the U.S. to CST then the foreign corporation
would take over the assets and say they really owned them.
May 1982
LRH executes a new will, a mere few days after the corporate restructuring
had taken place. He names Pat Broeker as Executor. (However, in the 1986
last minute will, the day before his death, Norman Starkey is named as
Executor).
According to a 29 June 1992 United States Claims Court document (CST vs.
United States), as part of LRH's estate planning, LRH made 3 gifts to
Scientology. The first two were inter vivos, and a third was testamentary.
All three transfers were made, or in the case of the will, designated, in
May 1982.
First, LRH gave use of the Advanced Technology and religious marks to RTC.
These Scientology religious marks include the terms Dianetics and
Scientology and Mr. Hubbard's name, initials and signature. RTC is charged
with the duty to oversee lower-ranking churches to ensure they practice
Scientology in an orthodox manner. RTC gave CSI a license to use the marks
with any Scientology services sold by CSI on condition that CSI recognize
RTC as the final word on matters of theological orthodoxy. As required by Mr
Hubbard's gifts, RTC delegates rights to use the Advanced Technology and
religious marks to qualified churches in the ecclesiastical hierarchy and
then supervises their activities to ensure compliance with Scriptural
requirements. In exchange for use of the marks, churches that minister the
Advanced Technology pay RTC six percent of the contributions they receive.
Although orthodoxy is not clearly defined in the records, the court notes it
has at least the result of requiring all churches to buy materials licensed
through CSI, the current mother church. All of LRH's works are copyrighted
with formal licensing arrangements made between LRH and the distributing
churches.
LRH's gift to RTC was conditioned on RTC obtaining exemption under I.R.C. @
501 (c)(3).
Thus far, RTC has been found non-exempt by the Commissioner.
CST was created in 1982 in order to receive the second gift. LRH gave CST
two options over the marks and technology which he had given to RTC. The
first option is to take control of the trademarks on published LRH works and
the insignia of various organizations. The second option is over the
Advanced Technology. CST has the option, exercisable at its sole discretion,
to take over use and authority of the Advanced Technology from RTC if RTC
allows their use in an unorthodox manner.
The third gift was designated in LRH's will of 1982. In it, CST was made the
conditional beneficiary of the remainder interest of LRH's personal estate,
after certain bequests to family members. The CST bequest included the
copyrights to LRH'' Scientology works, and certain limited rights over the
marks and technology that he had retained at the time of his gift to RTC. It
also included all of LRH's non-Scientology works of fiction which continue
to produce royalties.
The publishing rights and copyrights alone carry with them the rights to
receive the substantial royalties which flow from sales of Scientology books
and tapes to the public. These rights will provide CST with a sizeable
annual income, but only if it achieves tax exempt status. These assets have
not yet been distributed to CST, and they are accumulation income as part of
the residual estate, which is being held by a pour-over trust.
The following copyrighted materials were included in LRH's bequest to CST:
As part of LRH's estate planning, CST was founded in 1982 by Lyman Spurlock,
Meade Emory, Leon Misterek and Sherman Lenske.
One of CST's specific duties, unique among Scientology churches, is to
create and maintain an archive of scriptures for future generations. The
other stated purpose behind CST was to provide LRH, then still living, with
a depository for the bulk of his testamentary estate, as explained above.
CST's founders wanted to accomplish "the creation of an organization to
which Mr. Hubbard would be willing to (and did) bequeath the bulk of his
estate, and most importantly his copyrights and patents (which include
copyrights to scriptures of the religion and patents on the E-Meter)."
The four Special Directors, with the exception of Spurlock, are
non-Scientologists. They must be lawyers to ensure that CST takes no action
to jeopardize its tax exempt status.
The General Directors and staff of CST must be Sea Org members in good
standing. The Trustees are required to have been Scientologists for at least
8 years and must be highly trained in Scientology. They must be actively
involved in giving and receiving Scientology services and train for 12 and
half hours per week.
Three of the four Trustees worked previously for Church of Scientology of
California which was dismantled in 1981. Terri Gamboa is a Trustee of CST.
She was at the same time a Director, the President, and a shareholder of
Author Services, Inc. Greg Wilhere, a Trustee of CST, was formerly an
employee of the Founding Church of Scientology, CSC, and the Church of
Scientology Flag Service Organization.
Marion Meisler is a Trustee of CST. She was at the same time an employee of
ASI. Lyman Spurlock is President of CST, one of its Directors, and one of
its Trustees. He is also a Trustee of RTC. As Trustee, Spurlock has the
authority to elect and remove Directors who run RTC. Thus Spurlock has the a
bility to influence RTC's activities.
Dan Przybylski is Vice President of CST and one of its Directors. He has
been an employee of CSC, CSI, and RTC. Leo Johnson is Secretary and Nancy O'
Meara is Treasurer of CST.
CST is in the process of archiving Scientology scriptures. It has purchased
several large parcels of land. Its administrative offices and main
preservation facility is in San Bernardino, California. There is a 6,000
square foot preservation building and another facility will be built to
house original Scientology scriptures.
CST has purchased other sites for storage facilities. CST has archive sites
in Northern California and New Mexico and has plans to acquire additional
sites. Vault construction in New Mexico was begun in 1986 after construction
of staff living quarters, access roads and water supply. Underground tunnels
are being dug at the New Mexico site. Vault construction at San Bernardino
and Northern California is predicted to cost over 5 million.
CST intends to preserve Scientology scriptures in all of the forms in which
they currently exist, printed page, taped lecture and films. CST is also
involved in developing new E-Meter technology.
The stages of archiving are elaborate. First, CST must obtain the original
Scientology work. Originals have been found in the possession of individuals
in many different countries. In most cases, the possessors of the documents
donated them to CST for preservation. CST also obtains originals from RTC.
There are 42 LRH films and over 6500 original audio tapes to be archived.
CSI is to provide a transcript of each tape to CST.
1 June 1982
Heber Jentsch, President of CSI, files restated articles of incorporation
for Church of Scientology International.
Its purpose is to act as the mother Church, which is the ultimate
ecclesiastical authority of Scientology. It has no members.
If the corporation is dissolved, its assets shall be distributed to one or
more nonprofit funds, foundations, trusts or corporations which are
organized and operated exclusively for religious purposes and which are
entitled to tax exempt status.
June 1982
Pat Broeker and David Miscavige resign their positions in the Sea Org and
are now full time non-Sea Org members running RTC and Author Services.
Broeker and Miscavige engage in a political purge. Virtually every senior
church executive, except those that are under their influence, are pulled
off post, comm-eved, and for the most part, declared and expelled.
Here is a partial list of these execs:
In addition, the Commanding Officer of every FOLO and every org in the U.S.
Some of them were told they could receive no services for 20 years and they
had to get 2,000 people into Scientology before being allowed back.
August 1982
Mayo says he was trying to correct current upper level management, which
resulted in hostilities and the covert cutting of his comm line to LRH. He
and Julie Mayo were attempting to cause some reforms while they were within
the Church. He is one of hundreds of long standing Scientology execs removed
in this political purge.
Miscavige assigns Julie Mayo to the RPF. She says that information had been
sent to LRH that made him upset with the Mayo's and several others and they
were never given an opportunity to correct that information. She spends the
next few months running around a tree, 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. There
was no time off, even to do her laundry.
September 1982
LRH gave an order to bring the best cramming officer to the secret
international management base in Hemet, Ca. He was needed there to do
correction on upper level management execs because they had no clue how to
manage international Scientology. Jesse Prince was Cramming Officer at Flag
and he was selected.
Jesse Prince attends bi-weekly meetings at Author Services Inc. over the
next 5 years.
Jesse then learns that David Mayo had fallen from graces because LRH thought
he had been bought off by Scientology mission holders and was either a dupe
or a plant. Mayo is accused of squirreling the tech.
Early 1980's
Mike Rinder's newborn baby dies and he asks for time off. David Miscavige
responded that time off was "bullshit" and Rinder needed to work as his
statistics were down.
1982
Vicki Aznaran sees David Miscavige hit another Sea Org member, John Axel, in
the mouth. She says he also uses photographs of staff members who have
fallen into disregard for targets for pistol shooting.
Jesse Prince sees DM hitting Marty Rathbun in the face and body as hard as
he could. He saw Miscavige throw two women into the wall, making them cry.
These were Terry Gamboa and Marion Bender. He also saw times of guards
holding someone by the arms while Miscavige spit in the persons face and
punched them in the body. John Ward was one of these. Miscavige did a lot of
spitting in people's face.
September 1982
Stacy Young is assigned to the RPF because she is openly critical of
Miscavige's coercive and degrading treatment of staff members. His style of
management was screaming profanities and terrorizing the staff. The ASI
offices were on the 9th floor, yet people could hear Miscavige screaming
down on the street a block away.
One day he gave Stacy an insight into why he acted this way. He said "You
think I yell loudly, but you've never heard anyone yell until you've heard
LRH. I'll never be able to scream the way he does. But Stacy, that's the
only way to get compliance." Stacy realized then that Miscavige was trying
to be like LRH in preparation for taking Ron's place when he died.
Anyone who disagreed with Miscavige or challenged his authority in any way
was branded a traitor who was out to destroy Scientology. This is why David
Mayo was ousted and replaced with Ray Mithoff. Many others were thrown out
in 1981 & 1982 and replaced with people who would obey Miscavige orders
unquestionably. John Nelson, head of CMO is removed by Miscavige and
replaced with Miscavige loyal follower, Marc Yaeger.
Jim Isaacson was in charge of investing Ron's money and he was expected to
show a profit every week. Miscavige would scream mercilessly at Jim every
day. One day Miscavige found Jim lost a large amount of money by investing
incorrectly in the gold market.
Miscavige and Starkey literally dragged Jim into a conference room. For the
next 3+ hours Miscavige yelled at Jim, demanding who sent him to destroy
Scientology. Miscavige then told Stacy to get the information from Jim and
to not let him leave until he confessed everything.
When Stacy went in the conference room she found Jim collapsed on the table.
His eyes were glazed and he was shaking uncontrollably. She told him to go
home and get some sleep. Jim was sent to the RPF a few days later. His wife,
Joyce Isaacson, was already in the RPF for refusing to go along with
Miscavige's brutal treatment of staff.
The RPF filled up with people who tried to stand up to Miscavige. Any staff
who were critical of Miscavige were sent to the RPF. He surrounded himself
with people who were willing to do whatever he ordered.
One of Miscavige's tactics to control people on staff was to separate
husband and wives.
One day Stacy told another staff member that Miscavige was a brutal,
tyrannical bully. That night security body routed her to the RPF.
Her stay in the RPF started with a gang bang sec check. Andre Tabayoyon and
Rick Aznaran screamed at her and interrogated her for hours at a time.
Miscavige ordered that she do the "running program" as part of her
requirements for getting off of the RPF. This was running around a large
pole for 12 hours a day. This was to be done until she had a realization of
what was wrong with her, whereupon she would stop being critical of
Miscavige.
At one point he ordered Stacy to Florida to separate her from her husband.
Because of a foot injury, she could not go and so she was kept in Los
Angeles, locked on the seventh floor and kept there under guard, so she
could not escape and reach her husband.
17 October 1982
By this time, Miscavige had established ASI, RTC, CSI and CST, and obtained
control over all Scientology corporate bank accounts.
The second Mission Holders meeting is held in San Francisco, with 400
mission holders attending. Miscavige gathered staff from ASI and they put on
SO uniforms and took over control and terrorized the Mission Holder's'
Conference.
The other Sea Org members assisting Miscavige:
David Miscavige informs the mission holders that he and RTC had taken over
all Scientology organizations. He says that LRH donated the vast majority of
the trademarks to RTC. He tells them that every franchise holder would be
required to sign a new agreement with RTC and if they did not do so they
would be fined or thrown into jail.
Individuals who objected to the ASI, RTC take over of the assets were locked
into rooms and interrogated on the e-meter and were either forced to sign
the new agreements or removed from their positions and deprived of their
business, property and possessions.
Several Mission holders were expelled on the spot for being unhappy about
what they were hearing. Miscavige orders the mission holders to pay large
sums of money for a promo campaign for DMSMH, under threat of being
investigated for crimes against Scientology and losing their businesses if
they refused. As a result, millions of dollars are paid to CSI and RTC
accounts.
Six Hundred people are declared Suppressive and expelled from Scientology at
this time.
All people who criticized Miscavige or refused to obey his orders were
subject to expulsion.
It was a show of brute Sea Org strength and was touted in the Sea Org
Expansion News, entitled "The Sea Org Moves In". It was done under the guise
of "protecting the tech" and "getting people on source" when it really was
nothing more than a consolidation of power. Vaughn heard the brags of
Miscavige, Starkey and Spurlock when they returned to ASI, boasting how they
terrorized people and how successful their "raid' was.
HCOPL 7 August 1965 Suppressive Persons, Main Characteristics Of:
Good staff members are a prime target for SPs. In one org where an SP got a
foothold, 60% of the staff was gotten rid of …..
AN SP WILL SEEK TO UPSET AND GET RID OF THE BEST STAFF MEMBERS.
HCOPL 5 April 1965 Academies Relation To HCO Justice…
Here's "Whee, kill everybody!" in person. Here also is the possible
government agent, the AMA BMA stooge. Here is the guy who plans to
"squirrel" and "grab Scientology".
Note:
Coupled with all of this, prices are raised considerably, making services
easily affordable to only about 10% of the people with sufficient incomes.
The amount of people on courses drops and thereafter, orgs look like morgues
compared to the way they were in the 1970s.
Thus, more of the group engram was laid in. The group got serious, not fun.
The tone level of the group drops to fear. These fears exist to this day:
The outpoint is wrong direction on the tone scale for the group (down
instead of up):
thanks to these Merchants of Fear: David Miscavige & his closest aides, and
their -
Science of Survival:
"An auditor is not trying to cure anything. He is simply raising tone."
The whole idea of Scientology is to raise beings on the tone scale:
Going down to fear on the tone scale is not Scientology: it is suppression.
October 1982
A "Committee of Evidence" is convened on Julie Mayo and 15 other executives.
This Comm Ev had apparently already found them guilty of ridiculously
outrageous things, before the Committee was ever convened. It was based on a
secret investigation by Gelda Mithoff who was also a member of the Comm Ev.
The Chairman of the Comm Ev was Ray Mithoff. The secret investigation had
resulted in the removal of David and Julie Mayo from SNR C/S INT and they
were replaced by Mithoff. Miscavige had ordered the Comm Ev and his wife
Shelly was also a member.
One night she and the 15 others were woken at 3AM and sec checked
individually by RTC execs Vicky Aznaran, Jesse Prince and Geoff Shervell. In
Julie's sec check they said that unless she confessed that she was working
for the IRS, FBI or other government agency, she would be sent to jail, be
banned from tech lines forever and lose her eternity.
When Julie said she did not work for any government agency they said they
would go easier on her if she confessed to supplying Alan Walters with a
mailing list. Julie said she did not do that either, so they sent her to go
think about it and write her confession.
Julie was not allowed to defend herself at the Comm Ev. She was not allowed
to see the investigation reports and was given no opportunity to present her
side of the story. The Comm Ev did not have any evidence against her. When
she was called before the Committee for the last time, there was a sign in
front of Ray Mithoff which said "You could be sent to the pokey for two
years."
Julie asked on what grounds she could be sent to the pokey and Ray said for
out tech. Julie then CSWed to leave. By this time there were security fences
around Gilman Hot Springs and the security office was now full of guns that
had not been there before. Julie was kept under constant guard. Her CSW to
leave was not answered so she decided to try to escape.
October 1982
Flo Barnett is an old St. Hill class VI auditor. Her daughter, Michelle, is
married to David Miscavige. When she got a transcript of the Mission Holders
Meeting from the org she was upset by what went on at this meeting. She told
her friend, Joyce Stephenson, that the people running RTC are mentally sick
or worse still, SP. (Seven months later she tells Joyce that the C of S has
been taken over by the enemy and all of the good people have been kicked
out. Joyce heard there are more Class XIIs in the field than at orgs.)
November 1982
From then to the present, the Church of Scientology pays millions to
lawyers. These attorney fees are used as a money-laundering scheme to pay
private investigators for covert black intelligence operations against
enemies.
If the target is a Scientologist, one of the things done is to turn the
person's preclear folders over to the non-Scientologist PIs. The person's
confessional data is pulled for blackmail, extortion or a black PR campaign
to assassinate his character and ruin the person's reputation with his
friends, relatives and employers with the intention of ruining his life.
Staff members in OSA's intelligence unit would also go through the folders
looking for buttons, such as fears, what the person is trying to protect,
etc. and these would be used to design black intelligence operations against
the person.
Note:
This includes black operations on DM's imagined enemies: all of the truly
dedicated Scientologists he has had expelled simply because they dared to
challenge his psychotic leadership or squirreling. They had no actual crime
against Scientology, loved LRH and the tech enough to apply KSW and stand up
to him. So, he got rid of them, not because they were any threat to
Scientology, but only because he imagined them to be a threat to him.
1983
From 1983 to 1986, over 30,000 people left Scientology because of Miscavige'
s brand of "Scientology". Thousands more have left since then, many of whom
are still in good standing but they are just sitting off lines, knowing
things are wrong, refusing service until Miscavige is gone and things get
back on source.
January 1983
Julie Mayo escapes from Gilman Hot Springs with two security guards chasing
her.
February 1983
Mayo's internal efforts to handle the attacks on him all failed and he
leaves.
1983
CST's operating funds come exclusively from other Scientology management
churches.
Church of Spiritual Technology receives a "one-time start-up grant" of
$17,959,745 from Church of Scientology Flag Service Organization. In
addition, CST receives unrestricted annual grants hereafter from RTC ranging
from $623,000 to $2.8 million.
CST files its initial petition for tax exempt status to the IRS. CSI and RTC
also apply at the same time.
March 1983
Jesse Prince is promoted to Deputy Inspector General External RTC. He is
number 3 in command, his only seniors being David Miscavige and LRH.
There are two other RTC board members:
Vicki Aznaran is Inspector General and President.
Warren McShane is a member.
David Miscavige, Norman Starkey and Lyman Spurlock are trustees of RTC.
At this meeting he learned that David Miscavige was a managing agent of all
of Scientology corporations, including ASI, RTC, CSI, CST and CSC.
Scientology's intelligence network is run by RTC. Jesse Prince was now the
head of this.
Prince took direct orders from Miscavige on intelligence actions and legal
matters.Thus, he has personal knowledge of the criminal activities being
conducted by Miscavige and RTC.
Prince says from time to time, based on orders from Miscavige, he would
order others to engage in illegal activities against perceived enemies of
Scientology. These activities included, but are not limited to,
wire-tapping, planting illegal drugs on enemies to set them up for being
arrested, and destruction of documents that contained evidence of illegal
activities. They also commonly went through parishioner's preclear files for
confessional material that could be used for blackmail or extortion.
After one of the meetings Jesse overheard Miscavige and Rathbun talking
about working with a former IRS employee, Meade Emory. They also said they
had an agent working for them inside the IRS and they would not say who it
was. It was the biggest secret and he never heard them mention it again.
March 1983
Michael Flynn was representing L. Ron Hubbard Junior in a probate action
wherein LRH Jr. alleged that Miscavige was holding his father hostage and
stealing money from his estate. Miscavige says Flynn was using this as a
ploy to get LRH to appear in court so they could serve him in the other
lawsuits they had filed against LRH.
Also, Miscavige confided in Jesse Prince (in 1985) that they would not allow
LRH to personally appear in the probate case because LRH was mentally
incapable. So, the lawyers, Sherman Lenske and Heller, lied to the court and
said they did not know where he was.
Note:
We think there was another reason. If LRH appeared in person he may have
told the court things that indicated he was opposed to what Miscavige and
Sherman Lenske were doing with his estate. And that could have ruined their
covert plans to seize Scientology by fraudulently grabbing the copyrights
with the last minute will that gave Ron's entire estate, including the
copyrights, to the Church of Spiritual Technology.
In any case, the court indicated that it would rule favorably for LRH Jr.
and declare LRH a "missing person" unless LRH appeared or filed a sworn
declaration. Therefore, Miscavige's attorneys filed a sworn declaration,
allegedly from LRH, with the court.
The LRH declaration filed with the court said that his assets were under his
personal control.
Therefore, the probate action was dismissed.
It was around this time that Miscavige bragged to Jesse Prince that he could
forge LRH's signature. He demonstrated it for Jesse and showed that he could
do it perfectly. He said that Norman Starkey could also forge Ron's
signature.
At the same time, Miscavige is also a notary public. So, he could forge LRH'
s signature on anything, then sign it off as being the notary who witnessed
Ron signing it.
March 1983
DM and attorney Sherman Lenske order a payment of millions of dollars for an
intelligence black operation to set up and frame Attorney Michael Flynn of
Boston. The money is paid to attorney John Peterson and private investigator
Eugene Ingram. The plan was to get Flynn prosecuted for an alleged attempt
to forge a two million dollar check of LRH's.
The bank informed the FBI about the forged check and Flynn told the FBI that
Miscavige was the most likely person to have done this. So, the FBI
investigated David. Ingram has fled the country to avoid prosecution for
this and other crimes he committed in carrying out intelligence black
operations.
Note: Since then, Ingram has returned and is back in action, carrying out
black ops again.
July 1983
David and Julie Mayo are involved in a reform movement which resulted in the
forming of the Church of the New Civilization. The Church of the New
Civilization started an Advanced Ability Center, wherein they delivered the
tech. David Miscavige gets infuriated and orders Mayo's group destroyed by
any means possible.
RTC got Bob Mithoff to infiltrate Mayos' group. RTC got Mayo's mailing list
and RTC exec Gary Klinger mailed disparaging information to and contacted
members of AAC and intimidated and harassed them. Gary Klinger rented the
office above AAC and conducting electronic surveillance from there, and
reported daily to Miscavige what they overheard.
Black operations against Mayo's group included each time Mayo took a trip
abroad, they had him detained by customs on the false data he was smuggling
drugs. Mithoff also broke into where the materials were locked up and stole
a copy of Mayo's rewritten NOTs materials and it was later used for a
lawsuit against him.
Note:
Are you beginning to see why we said earlier on this time track that RTC is
the "new GO"?
It is autonomous and every bit as corrupt as the Guardian's Office was.
Actually, RTC is worse than the GO ever was, because the GO never re-wrote
LRH's tech, like RTC has.
Read on and find out about:
At the bi-weekly ASI meetings David Miscavige would ask Vicki Aznaran and
Jesse Prince what they were going to do to put an end to Mayo. A copyright
suit was suggested and so Miscavige brought in LRH Personal Secretary Pat
Brice to get a briefing on copyright filings. He was disappointed to find
that no one was responsible for copyright filings since the Guardian's
Office had been re-organized by him.
Jesse Prince is at another ASI meeting. David Miscavige, Lyman Spurlock,
Vicki Aznaran, Patricia Brice and Edith Buchele are present. The meeting
was about the fact that the copyrights had not been registered and thousands
of pages of LRH materials were now public domain. (Note: By law, once in the
public domain, it stays there. You can't get it back.)
David Miscavige orders Pat Brice (LRH personal secretary and ASI employee)
to begin the process of mass copyright registration for all LRH materials.
Pat says it is too late and Miscavige says to do it anyway.
Then Jesse saw Pat Brice come and say ‘we can't do this, per the law, we
can't even do this. There's a lot of this stuff we can not do anything with
it because it went into the public domain. We have no rights on these things.
DM jumped up and screamed at her. I don't care what you have to do, just do
it.
In mid 1983 a massive program to register LRH material began. This is the
reason most copyright filings have a date of 1983 forward. They knew it was
not copyright-able and DM told her to do it anyway. She then proceded to
file 1000s of false copyright applications.
After that Pat Brice left the church.
Note:
Here's a tip for you: they tried to get around this by putting LRH HCOBs
into tech volumes and then getting a copyright to cover the whole book.
But, if you look at the individual HCOBs in the tech volumes, the
copyright is missing on each individual one. Know why that is? Because
they don't own the copyright on it anymore, it's in the public domain!
And it is there to stay, as a judge has already told them in a
copyright case you will read about later on this time track.
Jesse says common practice is to take an issue that has fallen into the
public domain, change a few lines of it, then get a copyright on their
revised edition.
Note:
By law the only part that is copyrighted is their change. The part that was
in the public domain remains in the public domain and is not copyrighted.
And that is the only part we are interested in using anyway. We don't want
their re-written parts, they can have them.
Furthermore, by copyright law, they do not own the ideas expressed in the
issues. Once published, those are as free as the air and they belong to
anybody who wants to use them.
Note:
When Dianetics The Modern Science of Mental Health was released, the idea
was for people to read the book and co-audit, towards the goal of clearing
the planet. Was there any concern about using copyright law to stop them?
No. The purpose was to get lots of people co-auditing towards the goal of
clearing the planet. Some people audited well and got good results, some
didn't. So what? Any auditing is better than no auditing.
Groups formed to teach people to audit better and people who got good
results went to improve their auditing skills and people who did not get
good results also went to improve their auditing skills. Either way, you got
them all coming to you by offering a group they could go to, to learn how to
audit better.
One has to wonder: what is their big compulsion to own copyrights on the
technology?
It really is not a problem towards the goal of clearing the planet, if that
is your goal.
So what if anyone could then open up shop and deliver the tech? That is all
towards the goal of clearing the planet.
Altering LRH issues was the wrong solution to this. The correct solution was
to get more on source thereby earning the reputation of being the place to
go for the best results because you are totally 100% standard in applying
pure on-source LRH technology.
You can't say they want the copyrights to prevent squirreling. They don't
care about that. They alter the tech and squirrel all day long every day.
They have used copyrights to try and close down splinter groups. Splinter
groups are not squirrel groups. This shows their true intentions and why
they want copyrights.
They want copyrights on the technology so that they have a monopoly, giving
people only one place to go. The benefits to them for people having only one
place to go are:
a. Money - they can maximize profits. They can charge as much as
they want and people have to pay it because they have nowhere else to go.
b. Extortion. They can make people do what they say by threatening to deny
them services if they don't comply: because they have nowhere else to go.
c. Abuses. They can make people put up with all manner of abuses: because
they have nowhere else to go.
d. Control. By having a monopoly on delivering the technology they have
control over whether or not the planet gets cleared. Most important,
control over whether anyone makes it to OT.
And the last one, control over whether anyone makes it to OT, is the real
reason why all this is happening - to prevent it. Want proof? Look at their
statistics on making OTs.
Summer 1983
A new practice called Severe Reality Adjustment (SRA) is flourishing at
Gilman Hot Springs. Miscavige embraces and engages in them. The technique
consisted of several people ganging up on another person and interrogating
and intimidating the person. The person was "shocked" into a different
reality. These are also called "gang-bang sec checks." Miscavige did one on
Mayo when Mayo had disagreements with management over high prices, SRAs and
some other things.
1983
LRH executes an alteration in his will, called a codicil. This includes a
clause forbidding any autopsy, viewing or service, stating instead that Ron'
s body is to be cremated as soon as possible after his death.
Note:
We wonder if LRH executed this instrument or was it done by others without
his knowledge?
9 December 1983
Robin Scott walks into the Advanced Org in Denmark, posing as an RTC
representative. He asks for and receives a copy of all of the OT levels and
walks out with them.
(Later, Bill Franks walks off the Freewinds with the handwritten originals
for all of the OT levels above OT 8, making the entire bridge now available
in the field.)
Note:
In case the significance of this event at first escapes you, it means the
orgs and the U.S. intelligence community no longer have a monopoly on the OT
levels.
2 January 1984
As Chairman of the Board ASI, Miscavige invested and lost some of LRH's
fortune in oil well speculation, without telling Hubbard. The oil company
was Highlands, Goodall, & Grear located in Oklahoma. The estimated loss was
50 million. To recover this, Miscavige instituted the sale of "Special
Properties". He created and sold "leather-bound special editions" of LRH
books, telling purchasers they were an investment.
Jesse Prince was sitting in the office with David Miscavige and Norman
Starkey. Both of them had mastered forging LRH's signature. David and Norman
said "We'll never get him to sign this…it's like there ain't no way in hell
LRH is going to sign this shit. We'll sign it."
And so they did, committing not only forgery, but also fraud on the people
who bought the books with "LRH's signature."
It's said that DM used this skill to also create fraudulent transfers, trust
and testamentary instruments purportedly executed by LRH, which Miscavige
then notarized despite the obvious conflict of interest. Contrary to law, he
has never deposited those notary logs with the State of California and has
refused to produce them in discovery in litigation.
27 January 1984
Shiona Fox-Ness leaves the Sea Org with personal knowledge of the criminal
activities of upper level management. She knows Comm Evs to be a farce, a
mere going through the motions executed after someone has already been
targeted for demolition and the decision taken to expel them. The findings
are often invented, grossly overstated, and serve as a means to blacken the
character of the targeted individual. She has also witnessed LRH EDs,
bulletins, policies, and telexes that did not originate from, nor were they
signed by LRH.
She says much of the data in RJ 38 Today and Tomorrow The Proof, is false.
Note:
This tape proves that Miscavige and Broeker were feeding LRH false data.
The tape is trying to "PR" RTC's wonderful products and statistics. The data
and statistics are false, here are a few examples:
The tape says there is a war against squirrels and that a preliminary
injunction has been won against the California Association of Dianetic
Auditors. It says this is the first victory against squirrels based on
trademarks. It says the preliminary injunction shut this person down.
The truth is that a preliminary injunction is a court document that is
issued simply on request, it is preliminary to any hearing of facts, and
that is not a victory at all, but merely a preliminary step to a trial. If
the judge heard they were advertising this as a victory he would be most
displeased. Also, this person is not a squirrel group, but simply a splinter
group. And, they are not shut down, as a matter of fact they are doing
better than ever.
The tape says the Perth Australia squirrel group run by Eddie Mace is under
attack and has been reduced to next to nothing.
The truth is the group used to be a mission. RTC went into it, ripped it up,
was abrasive and rude to the people there and consequently the management of
the mission decided to leave the church. Since leaving the church, they
moved to larger quarters, they're now delivering the entire bridge and their
statistics have increased 8 fold, just since Spring.
The statistics given in the tape are exaggerated or utterly false. Here are
some examples:
Per the tape, 53 new missions started in 1983 for a total of 168. According
to Scientology Missions International statistic sheets, 26 new missions
started in 1983 but there were 27 missions that closed down. The total
missions at the beginning of the year was 60, the total at the end of the
year was 59, not 168.
The tape says the number of new starts for the year is 417,311. Dividing
that into weeks the figure is 8025 per week. The class IV org statistic
sheets show 1001 new starts per week. The Scientology Mission International
statistic sheets show 400 new starts per week. Therefore the statistic has
been inflated by 6600 new starts per week that did not happen and it is a
false statistic.
The actual statistics for the entire mission network for the year are way
down. Gross income is down by 70%, well done auditing hours are down 70%,
student points down 50% and first service starts are down by 80%.
We could go on but the point has been made.
12 March 1984
Lyman Spurlock was given a general power of attorney by LRH, as his personal
employee.
Note:
Norman Starkey and David Miscavige demonstrated that they can forge LRH's
signature.
Therefore this power of attorney, wills allegedly signed by LRH, etc. are
all suspect.
1984
RTC files a suit against David Mayo and others for use of upper level
material obtained from the Denmark AO. RTC v. Scott, et al, in US District
Court for the Central District of California.
April 1984
The 1967 IRS decision to remove the C of S of California from the roster of
tax exempt organizations for failing to comply with IRS rules and
regulations, is upheld by the US Tax Court. The court found substantial
evidence of private inurement to LRH and his family, including salaries,
management fees, complete support of LRH's family, and royalty payments on
LRH's writings. Additionally, the court found "covert indicia of benefit" to
LRH including repayment of unspecified debts, and LRH's absolute control
over the millions of dollars resting in Operation Transport Corporation,
Limited and the United States Churches of Scientology Trust.
Operation Transport Corporation is a non-charitable Panamanian corporation,
found by the court to be run by the Flag Banking Organization. OTC was found
to be a sham corporation for which FBO created financial records to give the
false impression of a legitimate, independent existence.
The court found that the United States Churches of Scientology Trust and the
Operation Transport Corporation were run for the private benefit of LRH and
his family.
David Miscavige holds a meeting at ASI with Jesse Prince, Vicki Aznaran,
Marc Yaeger, and Lyman Spurlock. Miscavige tells them that he has received
word of an IRS criminal investigation with the threat of a raid on ASI. One
of the main reasons for no tax-exempt status is that LRH was actually the
managing agent of Scientology in disregard of the corporate structure.
There was no doubt in the minds of the ASI staff what the IRS would find if
they got the ASI documents, as the FBI had done in the 1977 raid. Such
documents would show LRH running the Scientology empire via ASI and ASI's
bleeding Scientology organizations for millions of dollars, most of it under
the guise of "licensing agreements" drawn up by Spurlock, all of the money
going into ASI's and then Hubbard's personal accounts. Some monies were
converted to precious metals or jewels that were couriered directly to LRH.
Some was deposited into overseas banks, usually Luxumborg or Lichtenstein,
that had secret accounts in Hubbard's and ASI's names. This allowed LRH to
tap into them directly.
Since ASI was incorporated as a for-profit company, ASI staff knew that
ordering non-profits to come up with incredible sums sometimes in a matter
of hours ( a $25,000.00 licensing fee from just one organization was not
unusual) was all in violation of IRS laws and it could put LRH and ASI at
risk. So, ASI staff implemented Miscavige's orders to hide the evidence.
There was a concern that the IRS would obtain hundreds of orders from LRH in
the form of "advices" to Scientology. Under orders from Miscavige, Rick and
Vicki Aznaran and Foster Tompkins destroy evidence of LRH advices that
showed that he was still the managing agent of orgs.Norman Starkey ordered
Vicki Aznaran to go to a computer facility in Los Angeles and destroy all
evidence that showed LRH's involvement and control of Scientology's money.
David Miscavige, Norman Starkey and Rick Jackson placed back up copies of
the advices and evidence of LRH control of Scientology money in a secret
storage facility.
The ASI staff were ordered to go through ASI files and pull all
correspondence with LRH that involved his or ASI's connection to the various
Churches of Scientology. Since that had been mostly what ASI had been doing
for years, it was most of ASI's files. They took up about 20 4-drawer filing
cabinets.
These files were then moved to a secret office and kept under 24 hour guard.
The ASI staff worked there for a couple of months until the crisis was over.
Miscavige is worried about going to jail so he devises several schemes to
flee the country. Guards are also trained to avoid service of process.
Miscavige becomes the target of an IRS-CID investigation, alleging that DM
participated in a conspiracy to defraud the IRS. This investigation is ended
in 1986 when LRH dies.
May 1984
Jesse Prince says the role of attorney Sherman Lenske was to give them
advice to ensure LRH's authority and control over Scientology was covered
up. But over time, the attorneys would limit LRH's control more and more.
The excuse was " we give you any kind of money you want, just shut up and
take the money and let us run things." Miscavige just forced Ron out of
existence by taking control away a little at a time. And LRH saw it.
Jesse says that he knows a big battle was going on between LRH and Miscavige
because LRH thought his hands were totally tied. Ron was going to other
people besides David to try to help him continue to have control over the
church.
So, LRH had Jesse give David Miscavige a sec check. The following was found:
The line for getting money to LRH was that Pat Broeker would tell David to
bring cash in a briefcase. In the sec check Miscavige confessed that when he
brought money, he and Pat would meet in Las Vegas and they spent thousands
of dollars of LRH's money, on gambling and whores.
Jesse found that Miscavige was in complete disagreement with LRH and with
Broeker as to what should happen and when it should happen. And he was sick
of giving them money because he said they just wasted money. So, he was
considering cutting them off from the money too.
Jesse gave the results to Broeker and he does not think LRH got it because
he never got an acknowledgement from Ron. Quite often Ron would give a gift,
like a leather jacket, for helping him, or at least, he always said "thank
you."
When Jesse gave the sec check to Broeker, Broeker said "Well, I think you
did a good job. The old man has a lot on his mind, and we're trying to keep
this stuff off of his lines."
Note:
Broeker either never gave it to Ron or he altered it, as it also contained
Broeker's crimes.
Despite all of this, after last month's threat of an IRS raid, Miscavige has
attorneys (Lenske) tell LRH to not run the Church at all. LRH objects.
DM says from then on, LRH went completely out of touch with any Church
entities. According to DM, LRH stops all communications with church
personnel. He travels around Washington and California in a motorhome,
finally settling at a ranch in Creston, California.
Note:
At this point, read A STORY in Technical Volume 1, page 285. This is vital
reading.
If you don't have tech volumes, call a friend who does and have them read it
to you.
June 1984
After this "near call" it was decided to beef up RTC to take some of the
functions from ASI, thus reducing the threats. Until then, RTC was junior to
ASI only because ASI was where Miscavige was working. Miscavige began
spending more time at RTC. RTC could thus be the enforcement section so ASI
staff did not have to implement another Mission Holders Conference and put
Miscavige in the limelight.
Miscavige orders/allows the re-writing of various LRH issues:
Vaughn Young says he has personal knowledge that material was written and
issued under the name L. Ron Hubbard that he did not author. Vaughn
personally wrote material under his name for years. This ranged from simple
messages to be sent to various organizational staff on events such as Ron's
birthday, to composing an entire directive that was issued under Ron's name.
In these instances, they were done without Ron's knowledge or consent.
The directive Vaughn wrote concerned the Scientology policy of
"disconnection". The order to do this came from David Miscavige. Miscavige
said we had to reinstitute the Policy of Disconnection and ordered Vaughn to
write it. Vaughn wrote it. It was not sent to LRH for his approval and was
issued into the Church of Scientology.
Vaughn also wrote material that went into the body of the 10 part series of
"Battlefield Earth." This was done after Ron's death and so did not have
Ron's approval. All of this was put out under Ron's name.
Therefore, the mere presence of LRH's name on written material is no
guarantee that he wrote it or even knew about it. Others may have ghosted it
without Ron's knowledge or consent. The material may have also been changed
considerably by others.
When Jesse Prince was number two in command, right under DM, he was on the
Issue Authority (IA) line. A submission for IA looked like this:
There would be multiple policy letters or HCOBs that had somewhat related
issues concerning the issue that was being created, and maybe some advice
throughout the years. And they would make a compilation issue based on all
of these things, and they would put together something that had a specific
theme and an idea, but it would come from many different sources. And they
would put LRH's name on the compilation issue. This was done when he was
still alive. So it would appear to a Scientologist that LRH had written the
whole thing. When in fact LRH had only written a few lines of it or nothing
at all.
The only way this is disclosed is you will have at the end of the issue the
name L Ron Hubbard. Then you'll have someone's initials. Those initials are
the initials of the person who compiled it and wrote the issue. And then
beside those initials are the initials of the typist.
Jesse never saw anything that had absolutely nothing to do with anything
that LRH had ever written, but he has definitely seen things come out that
LRH had never seen and never knew existed. These issues were created inside
the organization and they put Ron's name on it. And they copyrighted it
under his name when he did not in fact create it.
Ray Mithoff ghosted a lot of the technical material.
RTRC is in the office of the SNR C/S INT and this unit is issuing the
altered tech materials.
Prince saw them issue a lot of materials wherein they were sent something by
LRH that was only two or three sentences long and they would make a 2 or 3
page bulletin out of it. And then they put Ron's name on it and present it
as if LRH authored it entirely.
They would also write entire HCOBs, that LRH never authored or saw and put
LRH's name on it. Other HCOBs, like HCOB 18 June 1990 C/S Series 124, has
LRH's name on it, says it is a compilation, but it is not a compilation,
they wrote it.
Jesse says that Ray Mithoff wrote OT 8 from scraps of paper containing
little notes, it was a compilation process. And yet the church issued OT 8
as if it was authored by LRH, that this was his work. The initials at the
end of the HCOB are LRH/RM and whoever the typist was, just like the NOTS
materials.
The church has delivered different versions of OT 8.
Ray Mithoff was the one who wrote the original OT VIII supposedly from LRH
notes. Pat Broeker was also involved in writing it. DM said he had to see it
because he was Issue Authority.
Then DM told Jesse Prince that what was in there was going to blow peoples
minds. It was not a happy thing. He said I don't know what is going to
happen when we put this out. He was hesitant. He did not want to do it.
In the first 3 and a half months they delivered the first version of OT
VIII. One of the people who did the original OT VIII was a man from Europe.
He said fuck scientology and left the church. A lot of people were horribly
upset and complained about it.
Jesse had a conversation with DM about it. It was like damn it, we knew it
before we released it and now it has happened.
So, DM and Mithoff secretly revised it and removed the part that was
upsetting people and the new version came out.
This is what is currently being done within Scientology, where Hubbard
material is being altered, to delete and/or hide from public view anything
that might prove to be embarrassing. At the same time the originals are kept
from public view.
Jesse says they were once worried that a staff member in RTRC was going to
go out security and blow this, that and the other. Her name was Holly Finell
and her husband was Bill. DM ordered Jesse to bug their home. So, Jesse and
Rick Aznaran put a lamp in their room that contained a bug and then listened
to their private conversations. They knew it was illegal.
Note:
The above is Felony Fraud on the paying Scientology public. Miscavige makes
affidavits and public statements that all tech is made available in a pure,
unadulterated form. He knows it is not. The paying public believes they are
purchasing pure on-source LRH technology, when the truth is they are being
defrauded. Miscavige has put the church at risk because a multi-billion
dollar class action lawsuit could be brought on behalf of the paying public,
to return all of their donations they made over the past 20 years.
June 1984
A meeting is held at ASI. David Miscavige, Lyman Spurlock, Vicki Aznaran,
Norman Starkey, Marty Rathbun, attorney Earl Cooley and Jesse Prince are
present. Miscavige says Scientology has been court ordered to produce the pc
file of Larry Wollersheim. His 6 foot high stack of pc folders was culled
down to about 50 pages by Vicki Aznaran. Cooley then told the court that was
the entire file. There was a second order to produce the entire file, so
Miscavige ordered the file destroyed.
August 1984
Stacy Young is transferred to the PR division of OSA. She has personal
knowledge that the practices formally called "Fair Game" continue to be
employed, although the term is no longer used. These tactics are laid out in
many of the key policies studied and applied by OSA staff. OSA has the old
GO bureaus of Intelligence, PR, and Legal.
September 1984
Flo Barnett had already attained the stated EP of SOLO NOTs in 1972.
However, she had lost the OT state and therefore tried to rehabilitate it by
auditing Solo NOTs. She decided to stop auditing Solo NOTs because it was
not rehabilitating the state. She was unhappy with Flag because they refused
her request to rehab her former OT state and insisted she continue on Solo
NOTs.
Therefore, she had Julie Mayo audit her for a few sessions. Whereupon, she
was gotten back onto AOLA lines for repair auditing, which went well at
first but then sour. After that, no one pursued her to fix her up. In late
1984 she was hit by a searing blinding pain in her head which is later
diagnosed as an aneurysm in the left side of her head.
1985
Jesse Prince hires attorney Earle Cooley to handle RTC's suit against David
Mayo's group, Advance Ability Center. When Mayo left Scientology he took
nothing with him, so when he started his group, he had to re-write the NOTS
materials from his memory. This was easy for him to do since he was the one
who had written all of the NOTS materials when he was in the church.
RTC infiltrated Mayo's group and committed the crime of breaking and
entering to obtain a copy of Mayo's rewritten NOTS materials. These
materials were then evidence in the copyright lawsuit that RTC brought
against Mayo.
Attorney Cooley knew that RTC obtained Mayo's rewritten NOTS materials
illegally. In preparing Jesse Prince to take the stand in this case, Cooley
advised Jesse to lie about how RTC got Mayo's materials. Cooley told Jesse
to testify under oath that someone had dropped the materials off on the
front steps.
1985
Julie Christofferson is awarded 39 million in damages in her lawsuit against
the Church.
The court found the Church guilty of practicing "Fair Game" against her and
awarded her damages. Miscavige was personally managing the case. David
orders all Scientologists to Portland for the Portland Crusade. Several
months later a judge ruled it a mistrial.
1985
Miscavige and Jesse Prince are pals at this time and DM confides to Jesse
that they did not want LRH appearing in court. DM tells Jesse there's some
things about LRH you just don't know and you have got to grow up and know
something, that LRH is mentally unstable.
Also, Rick Aznaran was up at Creston once and he told Jesse that he could
hear Ron screaming at thetans late at night when he was there. The servants
were also aware of this.
Ron was heavily medicated with drugs from Dr. Denk, like valium and
tranquilizers. Rick opened the medicine drawer and was surprised to find
every kind of drug imaginable.
Jesse says that LRH was having Denk assist him with research. Denk provided
any drug LRH wanted and LRH was being the guinea pig. Dennis Erlich claims
to have met a guy who was also bringing cocaine, marijuana and LSD to LRH in
Creston.
Note:
If he's mentally unstable and drugged up, how could he legally sign a last
minute will?
Research, huh? Or being held against his will and made to look crazy with
drugs?
A STORY on page 285 in Technical Volume 1 comes to mind.
1985
A black operation is begun to physically attack witnesses for government
litigation against the Church, and other "enemies." The operatives have the
code name "The Minutemen." Miscavige and Rathbun would say to Eugene Ingram,
wouldn't it be nice if so and so got beat up. Ingram would assign one or two
of his operatives to do it.
One such vigilante was sent to attack expelled Scientologist, Bent Corydon.
A Mexican Scientologist was severely beaten up. There are many others, some
of whom appear on this time track.
May/June 1985
Flo Barnett receives several auditing sessions from Julie Mayo and calls her
friend Joyce Stephenson. Joyce says she was doing well and almost sounded
like her old self again.
Sometime in 1985, Michelle Miscavige visits Flo and unleashed a tirade
against her such as "You are never going to get better until you get back
into the Church", etc.
Jesse Prince says that DM was personally running the intelligence operatives
who were doing black operations on Flo. Just before her death in September,
Flo had an argument with DM and threatened to go public with information she
had about his black operations against her and to sue Scientology.
Note: Therefore, DM had a motive to kill her.
8 September 1985
Suspicious Death:
David Miscavige's mother-in-law, Flo Barnett, dies of 2 shots in the chest
with a rifle and then one to the head. Although there were no powder burns
or marks on her body, this event is called a "suicide". Vicki Aznaran says
DM's comment upon her death was "the bitch got what she deserved".
Note: Could this have been the work of "The Minutemen" David? Just
wondering...
23 October 1985
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of Dianetics The Modern Science of
Mental Health.
31 December 1985
DM says an ASI staff member held a power of attorney from LRH and they
conducted almost all of his business affairs without need of his direction
or personal approval.
According to DM, this is the only communication received from LRH since
1984. It was a 5 minute tape wherein he gave his New Year's greetings
and announced a breakthrough in his researches.
Note: Ron's voice is shaky in this tape: something is wrong.
Early 1986
The 1978 case of Founding Church of Scientology v FBI director Webster is
dismissed.
The Church took the position that LRH was no longer a managing agent.
However, the FBI produced evidence that LRH was still a managing agent. The
court found that despite LRH's formal resignation from all management
positions in Scientology, in fact he maintained control of Scientology's
finances and policies through his position in the Sea Org and other covert
means. "Ultimate control, we have no doubt, he possessed until his death."
The court dismissed the case after the Church had defied a court order to
produce LRH for deposition.
Vicki Aznaran was aware that certain IRS indictments were about to be handed
down against LRH. David Miscavige was under an IRS-CID investigation himself
for conspiracy to commit tax fraud. Miscavige said, "the only way to stop it
now is if the old man dies."
Early 1986
David Miscavige likely knew where LRH was living because the sister of his
wife was working directly with LRH as his personal maid at Creston.
Vicki Aznaran got word from Annie Broeker that LRH was sick and not doing
well. Vicki Aznaran says that Ron summoned Ray Mithoff and Pat and Annie
Broeker just prior to his death and only them.
Jesse Prince says that just before Ron died, that it was known he was
dieing. Certain people disappeared for 3 or 4 days prior to Ron's death.
David Miscavige disappeared. Ray Mithoff was woken up in the middle of the
night, given a Ford Bronco and told to go there. When Ray got back he said
he was auditing LRH.
23 January 1986
The day before Ron died, LRH allegedly signs a new last-minute will. The new
last-minute will was drafted by attorney Sherman Lenske. The new will
replaces Pat Broeker as Executor and assigns Norman Starkey as Trustee and
Executor of LRH's estate. All of Ron's intellectual property is given to a
trust called Author's Family Trust-B. Starkey's duties mainly concern
transferring the vast number of copyrights from Author's Family Trust-B, to
the Church of Spiritual Technology.
24 January 1986
Suspicious Death:
Vicki Aznaran was aware that certain IRS indictments were about to be handed
down against LRH. David Miscavige was under an IRS-CID investigation himself
for conspiracy to commit tax fraud. Miscavige said, "the only way to stop it
now is if the old man dies."
Hubbard was found dead at 8:00 PM, Vaughn Young was told at 10:00 PM. Vaughn
went to the death site that night along with David Miscavige and some
attorneys. They left LA at 1:00 AM and arrived at 4:00 AM. Vaughn says,
since none of them had been there, including Miscavige, Pat Broeker met them
at a restaurant and escorted them to the ranch.
Vicki Aznaran also went to the Creston Ranch. When she arrived Miscavige
said that Ron is dead and he did not want to see "any grief bullshit about
it."
The coroner's report says Ron died of a stroke. He had Vistaril (a psych
drug) in his blood. He had needle puncture wounds in his left buttock, under
a band aid. The coroner was suspicious of Ron's new-last-minute-will because
it had been signed by Ron just prior to his death (with drugs in his body
also.)
Ron's physician, Gene Denk, was gambling in Nevada when Ron had his stroke.
Gamboa, Miscavige and wife and the Aznarans had taken Denk on this gambling
trip a couple of weeks before the death and were there with Denk. By the
time Denk returned, there was nothing he could do.
The impression the coroner got was that Denk was at Ron's side when he had
his stroke and died. Denk signs the death certificate as the physician
attending to Hubbard and then disappears for a year.
Note:
Denk is gagged from talking about the year he spent with LRH prior to his
death. Why is that Miscavige? What does Denk know that you are hiding from
the rest of us Scientologists by gagging Denk?
Earl Cooley had a document, signed by Hubbard, forbidding an autopsy on
religious grounds. Miscavige and Earle Cooley give this to the coroner, so
no autopsy is done and Ron's body was cremated 24 hours after his death.
The Coroner's report states that the Coroner terminated his investigation
when DM and Dr. Denk arrived and showed him the 1982 and 1986 wills then
convinced the Coroner there was no material difference between the two
wills.
What Miscavige and Dr. Denk concealed from the Coroner was the following:
1. There was no disclosure of the change of executor less than one day
before death.
2. There was no disclosure of the change in provisions regarding MSH and the
last minute abrogation of her community property interests in the 26.5
million dollar estate.
3. There was no disclosure of the last minute change in the 1986 will
regarding the copyrights, which comprised 95% of the estate.
4. There was no disclosure that two weeks before the death, LRH's constant
medical attention had been withdrawn when DM and others took Dr. Denk on a
gambling trip to Reno, Nevada.
5. There was no disclosure of the last minute will's inclusion of a new
provision anointing David Miscavige, (the architect of the will and
circumstances surrounding the death), as a trusted servant and friend.
Creston was where the story was put together that LRH had moved on to the
next level of research. (In other words, for PR purposes, they concocted a
lie.)
The execs applied the PR policy of "an acceptable truth" to LRH's death.
They wanted to protect the idea that Hubbard was cause over life and death.
They had to protect the myth at all costs, so they fed the myth by saying he
was doing research.
February 1986
Hubbard's Death Announcement Event at the Flag Land Base
Presided over by David Miscavige, Pat and Annie Broeker and Attorney Earl
Cooley
Their invented public relations story:
Pat and Annie Broeker say they were with LRH several days before his death
and LRH said that he had to continue his research into the upper OT levels
without his body. Pat says he was assisting LRH with his research into the
upper levels and was privy to them. Pat Broeker says LRH left completed OT
levels up to OT XV. Pat says he was personally in charge of them and was now
a loyal officer under LRH's absent auspice. And that he and RTC were to
decide when to release them.
Cooley says he saw LRH's body at Creston Ranch and found nothing wrong with
it.
(The Coroner's report proves that is a lie.)
February 1986
The Estate of L. Ron Hubbard is subject to the control of the Trustee,
Norman Starkey.
He is a junior of DM. DM and Starkey make an 800-page inventory list of all
of LRH's copyrighted works, close to 20,000 individual works.
DM says the probate of LRH's estate was important to him. Fulfilling Hubbard
's final wishes meant seeing that Scientology Scripture passed to the Church
of Spiritual Technology.
Miscavige had Mary Sue Hubbard under "house arrest" in Hollywood Hills in
LA. She had two Sea Org members living with her and they went with her
everywhere and reported daily to Miscavige what she did every day.
Under duress, MSH made an agreement to waive her rights to her community
share of the Estate of LRH. This is how Miscavige swindled Hubbard's heirs
out of an inheritance worth 400 million. Soon after LRH's death, Miscavige
takes Jesse Prince and over a dozen other Sea Org execs and invaded the
house of Mary Sue Hubbard. She was recovering from lung cancer surgery and
was in a wheelchair. Some of the other Sea Org members were Lyman Spurlock,
Norman Starkey, Vicki Aznaran, Marc Yaeger, Ray Mithoff and Marty Rathbun.
Larry Heller was one of the attorneys there representing Miscavige. MSH was
unrepresented.
Note: (He is one of the secret "Special Directors" of Church of Spiritual
Technology.)
Mary Sue was made to sign an agreement wherein she was paid $100,000 to
relinquish any kind of claim on the copyrights, trademarks, and bank
accounts. Ron's children were given $50,000 each. She did not want to sign
and Miscavige started screaming at her "You are going to sign it!"
Miscavige threatened to sec check Mary Sue and she said "No, I'm going to
sec check you to find out what the hell you are trying to do to me."
Miscavige said they were running the church, its got nothing to do with her
and she was lucky to get what she's getting. Miscavige said "Everything LRH
did, he did for the church. We are the church, not you. Therefore,
everything is staying right here with us."
The moment when she relinquished and signed the document, was when Mithoff
made her feel that LRH did not care about her. She was sad that Ron died,
because they had been separated and had not talked for a long time. She
asked Mithoff, with tears in her eyes, if Ron had said anything, or asked
about her before he passed. Mithoff said, "No, he didn't mention your name."
At that, she bowed her head and they stuck the papers underneath her hand
and she started signing. Mithoff bragged with great glee afterwards about
how he got to her by telling her that.
Ron's children had already been similarly handled prior to meeting with Mary
Sue, and they had already signed, getting $50,000 each.
18 February 1986
LRH's last will and testament is admitted to the probate court, Superior
Court of the County of San Luis Obispo probate case # 20885. The will
appointed Norman Starkey as executor of the estate and also named Norman
Starkey as Trustee of Author's Family Trust-B, An Inter-Vivos Trust
Established January 23, 1986.
Note:
There were 14 separate legal challenges to LRH's estate:
California Superior Court, County of San Luis Obispo, Case No. 20885, Ex
Parte Petition For Stay of Proceedings in Estate of L. Ron Hubbard. This is
fraudulent and criminal transfer of LRH's copyrights, trademarks, and other
property through Norman Starkey to RTC and CST. 1986 & 1987
In the months after Ron's death, Vaughn Young spent a lot of time with Pat
Broeker and they became friends. Vaughn learned a lot about LRH's life while
he was in hiding the last few years.
A power struggle erupted over the next 18 months over who would take control
of Scientology. A key element in the struggle was LRH's last message to the
rank and file. It was a message from Ron issued as a Sea Org Directive. It
said good bye, wished them well and establishing a new rank/position called
Loyal Officer. Pat was LO 1 and his wife Annie was LO 2 and it basically
turned the management of the Sea Org over to them. And since the Sea Org ran
Scientology that meant they were at the top of the heap. David Miscavige was
not mentioned in the Directive.
So, Pat slowly started to take control. There was a power struggle and DM
won and quickly purged the Sea Org of Broeker supporters as he consolidated
his power. Vaughn was sent to RPF for 16 months & had 3 escape attempts.
While in the RPF a directive came out from Miscavige saying that the final
message from LRH was a forgery by Broeker and was cancelled. That same day
Annie appeared in the RPF, a completely broken person. She was kept under
guard, just to be sure.
With the cancellation of the message from Ron there was now two things
missing: a goodbye message and a hat turn over. So if the Directive was a
forgery, where was the real goodbye message and hat turn over? Where were
Ron's wishes, in writing?
David Miscavige never provided anything and everyone was afraid to ask for
fear of being sent to the RPF. Pat Broeker disappeared.
April 1986
RTC won its injunction against AAC and Mayo is shut down. His group of
people went to another group and continued on.
June 1986
Jesse Prince was in the room when Miscavige, Rathbun and Gene Ingram were
planning a black intelligence operation to physically beat up Charles O'
Reilly. He was also in the room a few days later when they were celebrating
having pulled it off.(The Minutemen ride again.)
July 1986
A Los Angeles jury awards Larry Wollersheim $30 million in damages. The
court found the Church guilty of practicing "Fair Game" against him (they
destroyed his business) and awarded damages. One of the intelligence black
operations run on him by Miscavige, Rathburn and Ingram, was a fake bomb
placed on the doorsteps of his parents. Another was approaching his sister
in a supermarket and telling her that Larry will not live to collect any
money. Another was physically beating up his attorney, Charles O'Reilly.
The Church appealed the decision.
Just prior to this court decision, Stacy Young is working in the FREEDOM
Magazine department of the PR division of OSA US. She is told it looks like
Wollersheim was going to win his suit against CSC. Therefore, CSC had to be
gutted of all of its assets before the decision was handed down.
All that would be left of CSC would be a corporate shell consisting of a
treasury office and the FREEDOM office. So, the FREEDOM office and the
Treasury Office of OSA US were moved across the street. Treasury Secretary,
Rhea Smith, tells Stacy that all assets of CSC had been taken out of CSC
accounts. (Wollersheim later says they transferred 500 million out of CSC
reserves.)
28 September 1986
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of the LRH book Problems of Work.
24 October 1986
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of the LRH book The Fundamentals of
Thought.
Late 1986
Michael Flynn is representing dozens of clients in a suit against
Scientology. He settles the suit but cannot obtain agreement for one of his
clients to be silent, Scott Mayer, who was Hubbard's Fleet Captain. The
reason is that Mayer is working for the IRS as a paralegal and the IRS still
has pending litigation with C of S. When Scientology located Mayer living in
Laguna, Ca., his car mysteriously exploded in a fire ball. ("The Minutemen"
ride again?)
1987
Jesse Prince says Miscavige has a lifestyle that far exceeds his $40,000
annual salary. One day DM showed Jesse his safe with stacked up gold and
silver brick bars, rare coins and jewelry. He owns 4 new cars, and he and
his wife have lavish wardrobes, such as DM having closets full of tailor
made suits valued at $2,000 each. They have a $20,000 stereo system and all
handmade furniture valued around $40,000. They take 4 expensive vacations
per year, each one taking between 2 and 3 weeks. They have 15 to 20
servants. Jesse estimates DM's lifestyle is costing about $750,000 a year.
Meantime, Sea Org members are being paid $30.00 a week.
Jesse says that DM has access and control over all Scientology reserves and
he could blow and take it all with him.
March 1987
Pat Broeker sends a mission to remove David Miscavige from post.
Missionaires are Vicki Aznaran, Jesse Prince and Spike Bush. They go to
Gilman Hot Springs to remove DM from post and take over command of
Scientology. The mission failed and that results in LRH's closest aide, Pat
Broeker, being removed. The power was taken over by Miscavige who purged the
Sea Org of anyone friendly to Broeker.
Jesse Prince is removed from RTC and put under armed guard at Happy Valley,
a few miles West of Gold. After a few months he was put to work at Gold
under watch, until he escapes in 1992.
Miscavige removes Vicki Aznaran from the post of Commanding Officer of RTC.
He appoints himself Chairman of the Board of RTC. Thus, he moves the seat of
power from ASI to RTC because it was more defensible to run Scientology from
a non-profit corporation.
Vicki is ordered to the RPF "Running Program" at Gilman Hot Springs. This
involved running around an orange telephone pole from 7:00 AM to 9:30PM with
1 hour breaks for lunch and dinner. She was kept there by armed guard, but
finally escaped down a riverbed.
Vaughn Young did not know that Pat was planning to oust Miscavige. But,
Miscavige thinks that Vaughn was one of Pat's infiltrators in ASI. They went
after Vaughn for weeks and broke him. Then they did it several more times
over the next year and a half.
Note:
Jesse Prince says during the time that he was in RTC, from 1982 to 1987,
that the Sherman Lenske law firm was paid 7 to 8 million and the Heller firm
4 to 5 million. All they were doing was giving advice to Miscavige. Later in
time Jesse was asked about the theory that the attorneys control Miscavige
and Miscavige controls Scientology. Jesse was asked if he saw anything that
the real control exists with the attorneys and that they have enough on
Miscavige to take Miscavige out.
Jesse said yes, but he thinks that their hands are so dirty and that blood
drips from all of their hands that they protect each other. They all go down
together and so they all survive together. He says he thinks the attorneys
were being paid, not for their work, but because they have a piece of the
pie.
March 1987
Richard and Vicki Aznaran leave the SO and return to their home in Dallas,
Texas.
DM says this is when he became COB RTC. He leaves the post of ASI and takes
over RTC.
17 September 1987
Norman Starkey, as Trustee of Author's Family Trust-B, enters into a License
Agreement with RTC, wherein LRH's estate allows RTC use of the Advanced
Technology.
1988
The Life Improvement Courses are released by CSI, making the bottom of the
Bridge a minefield of squirrel alterations of LRH tech, all "Based On
TheWorks of LRH."
Note:
Declared squirrel groups such as Erhard Seminar Training and Dianology were
also -"based on the works of" LRH.
That's what made them squirrel groups.
So why isn't CSI a declared squirrel group for issuing tech that is:
"based on the works of" LRH?
18 February 1988
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of LRH's study tapes.
March 1988
The IRS sends agents to CST's headquarters to conduct an on-site review of
CST's financial activities and operations. CST had agreed to allow the
investigation. On June 24, 1988, CST sent a letter to the IRS complaining
that an IRS agent interviewed Vicki Aznaran, formerly the Inspector General
of RTC, without first informing anyone at CST. The process came to an end in
June 1988 when CST refused to cooperate with the agent's requests for
records.
18 April 1988
Flag Order 3879 The Sea Org & The Future is cancelled by DM. He says it is a
fabrication of Pat Broeker. He says that LRH's estate planning took into
account the future of Scientology and this is being implemented. He says
that LRH made plans for the eternal existence of Scientology technology in
RJ 34 The Future of Scientology. Also in RJ 38 Today And Tomorrow: the
Proof, LRH describes the current set up of international management.
April 1988
Richard and Vicki Aznaran file a lawsuit against Scientology.
8 July 1988
The Commissioner of the IRS renders a decision denying tax exempt status to
the Church of Spiritual Technology. The IRS found that CST was operated for
the benefit of the private interests of LRH, up until his death, and
afterwards for the substantial non exempt purpose of aiding other
Scientology organizations in their marketing of Scientology services and
publications. CST appeals the decision in United States Claims Court.
13 July 1988
Vicky Aznaran hired attorney Joseph Yanny, in 1984, to represent RTC in
copyright litigation. While representing RTC, he witnesses a lot of RTC's
criminal activities. Therefore he stopped representing them in November 1987
and he and his associates were then subjected to intelligence black
operations and physical assaults by "The Minutemen".
He makes an affidavit on this date about his knowledge of RTC's criminal
acts:
His associate, Karen McRae, was severely beaten by two assailants in Dallas,
Texas.
Rick Aznaran, while under surveillance by Church intelligence agents, was
the object of a hit and run accident in the State of Texas.
Note: This is a common black operation by "The Minutemen" : a hit and run
auto accident.
His fiancee, Ms. Wilske, was the object of a hit and run auto accident
involving the collision of the front and rear of her vehicle, destroying the
car and injuring her.
While under surveillance by Church intelligence agents, he was stopped by 4
police cars and the officers got out and called him by name. They had
information that he was in possession of firearms and cocaine. Yanny allowed
them to search his car and nothing was found by the police. The police then
interrogated the two intelligence agents and found them to be hired by a law
firm that represents the church, Williams & Connolly.
Since he stopped representing the church, his offices had been broken into 3
times, once with a crow bar, and numerous documents related to the Church
were taken.
Note:
Remember on the time track that Clearwater Mayor Gabe Cazares was in
litigation with the church, and Vallier (an attorney who is also a
Scientologist) infiltrated and represented Cazares with the intent of
sabotaging his case.
Yanny says in his affidavit that when he represented the church that
Mr.Vallier was his employee and law associate. He says that Vallier was a
well known seller of large quantities of cocaine. Vallier had first been
busted for peddling cocaine at age 17 but the record was sealed. However,
church intelligence found out about the bust and Vallier told Yanny that in
1986 the church was using the information to blackmail Vallier.
Yanny has personally seen Vallier in possession of large quantities of
cocaine for resale.
While working for Yanny, Vallier confided that he supplied cocaine to
enemies of the church when he was in law school.
Warren McShane once told Yanny that he was a high ranking operative for the
G.O. back in the days when the G.O. was caught stealing IRS and Justice
Dept. documents. McShane also told Yanny that he was running spies who had
infiltrated David Mayo's group and that they were going through the preclear
folders of members of Mayo's group for blackmail material.
While representing the church he was aware of numerous "cullings" of
parishioner's preclear folders to get data in preparation for depositions of
former members. When Yanny objected to this practice, Warren McShane told
him it was standard practice. Yanny often complained to Vicki Aznaran about
McShane doing this and McShane's tendency towards other criminal activities
and his general disregard for the law.
Yanny witnessed Church attorney Earl Cooley ordering Warren McShane and
Marty Rathburn to destroy evidence related to church litigation. There was
also wholesale destruction of evidence, theft of documents from private
persons and attempts to infiltrate the Court chambers of Judges Lilly and
Swearinger.
Yanny also knows of a plot to perpetuate a fraud to the Courts in the form
of settlement agreements of numerous pieces of church litigation, which
required lawyers to never take litigation against the church in the future,
and that no one, either lawyers or parties, testify against the church
again. The agreements also required that all evidence and files be turned
over to the church for destruction. Additionally, witnesses such as Bill
Franks, were gagged, to prevent them from telling others what they knew.
Note:
Larry Wollersheim is in litigation with the church and Charles O'Reilly is
his attorney.
O'Reilly had won a 30 million dollar judgement against Scientology in this
case.
Vallier also confided to Yanny that Vallier had been an operative for the
church in obtaining inside information from the offices of Charles O'
Reilly, by establishing a relationship with O'Reilly's secretary. He also
supplied the secretary with cocaine. During this operation, his handler was
Warren McShane, President of RTC.
In May 1987, Yanny attended a meeting with high ranking church officials,
including Linda Hamel, Director of Covert Operations. The subject of the
meeting was "The Catholic Conspiracy and Charles O'Reilly." It was explained
that the Catholics were enemies of Scientology and that O'Reilly was their
best hit man.
Marty Rathburn said that Miscavige had ordered them to steal O'Reilly's
medical records from the Betty Ford Center and another location in Santa
Barbara to show that he was using cocaine, discredit him, and possibly
blackmail him into easing off on his 30 million dollar verdict now on
appeal.
Yanny objected to this as illegal and an alternative plan was arrived at to
settle Yanny's nerves. Within days, Yanny told the church's chief lawyer,
John Peterson, that he wanted out. Soon thereafter Peterson died and Yanny
stopped representing the church.
Yanny was also informed of a group of vigilantes known as "The Minutemen"
who were to go beat up dissidents and had in fact done so.
4 August 1988
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of the Hubbard Dianetics Auditor
Course.
1988
Tech degrade - LRH books that are no longer being sold:
Notes On The Lectures, The Phoenix Lectures, Dianetics Today
Introduction To Scientology Ethics:98 edition is squirrel:
Omitted from the squirrel version: Code of a Scientologist, Code of Honor,
Church Creed, Keeping Scientology Working, and 198 definitions of words in
the glossary such as ethics, SP, PTS. Plus, the definitions of some of the
words in the glossary are squirrel.
Dianetics The Modern Science of Mental Health has also been re-written by
CSI, along with 913 other titles listed in the Library of Congress records.
CST is the owner of the copyrights for all these re-writes.
8 October 1988
To illustrate the squirreling being done we will use CSI's re-written
version of the 1965 LRH book SCIENTOLOGY: A NEW SLANT ON LIFE, published on
this date. This is a "based on the works of LRH" publication, written by
CSI. LRH is not the author.
In order to make it appear to the public that LRH is the author, LRH's name
is made part of the copyrighted title, to deceive the public into thinking
LRH wrote it:
SCIENTOLOGY: A NEW SLANT ON LIFE/L. RON HUBBARD
The CSI book alters things said by LRH in his book and deletes 9 of his
chapters and adds 12 new ones that were not in the original book.
The CSI version deletes the following Chapters from LRH's original book:
The Reason Why, The Conditions of Existence, Myths of the Mind, The Man Who
Succeeds, On Death of the Consciousness, Accent on Ability, Freedom vs
Entrapment, The Human Mind, Communication
In the CSI squirrel version, there are 87 times where they alter-is LRH's
words from the original book written by LRH. Below are a few examples shown
in bold print:
LRH's 1965 Version
Actually a little child derives all of his "how" of life from the grace he
puts upon life.
CSI's 1988 & 1997 Squirrel Version
Actually a little child derives all of his pleasure in life from the grace
he puts upon life.
LRH Version
They're looking for something, but the odd part of it is, the only time they
ever find something is when they put it there first. Now, this doesn't sound
very plausible, but it's quite true.

LRH Version
And here you have somebody who is happy, who is cheerful, who is strong, who

or is life making you?

More examples of The Golden Age of Squirreling:
Over 400 words have been deleted from the LRH tape "Studying, Introduction".
Over 600 words have been deleted from the LRH tape "Establishment Officer
Tape # 1, ESTO's Instant Hat".
More examples of The Golden Age of Squirreling:
HCOPL 10 September 1982:
This is called rip off. It is the exchange condition of robbers, tax men,
governments and other criminal elements.
Dynamics of Money course book, page 45:
This is called rip off. It is the exchange condition of robbers, most tax
men, many governments and criminal elements. (Also notice that the word
"other" was deleted.)
There are several "secularized" versions of LRH tape lectures where, for
instance, the word preclear has been changed to the word person. (This shows
they can edit tapes and put in words LRH never actually said in his tapes.)
LRH dedicated Science of Survival to Diana Hubbard, this has been deleted.
In HCOPL 18 December 1961 "Standing Orders, HCO" LRH says "By my own creed,
a being is only as valuable as he can serve others." This PL has been
deleted from the OEC volumes.
Why go on? They have altered thousands of LRH HCOBs, books and tapes. We are
not including here some of the extremely treasonous alterations of HCOBs we
have discovered and other HCOBs where LRH never wrote it at all, but they
put his name on it as if he did.
Each one of these changes is a tech degrade, a High Crime, and a Suppressive
Act.
It is also Felony Fraud: because the public thinks it is paying for pure
LRH tech and Miscavige falsely represents to the public they are getting
"pure, unadulterated LRH tech".
The truth is:
Miscavige has turned all Scientology organizations into being an off-source
squirrel group.
Miscavige is the most destructive squirrel in the history of the religion.
David Miscavige, Religious Technology Center, and Church of Spiritual
Technology are all in a condition of TREASON to LRH and all Scientologists.
Although altering source material is a High Crime in Scientology, legally
they can write works that are "based on the works of LRH." However, they
cannot change what LRH wrote and leave his name on it, as if he wrote it, as
they have done on some HCOBs. Also, they cannot write something that LRH
never wrote and put LRH's name on it, as they have also done with some
HCOBs. Those two things not only violate copyright law, but they are Felony
Fraud on the Scientology paying public, who thinks they are paying for and
getting pure LRH, which they are not.
November 1988
Bill Franks, former ED Int, and other execs have started a new group called
the Reform Movement in Europe. They have all of the OT levels, because of
Scott getting the lower OT levels from the AO and Franks walking out with
the upper OT levels from the Freewinds, as stated earlier on the time track.
Miscavige gives Heber Jentzch orders to carry out covert operations against
them in Spain. These operations included orders for investigations by
private detectives to obtain information by any means to incarcerate the
leaders of the Reform Movement. These covert operations resulted in Heber
being arrested in Spain.
30 November 1988
Norman Starkey, Executor of Hubbard's estate, signs a covenant with RTC,
wherein the estate grants RTC the right to use the Advanced Technology. It
lists the Advanced Technology as being: Grades V, VA, VI, Clear, OT I, OT
II, OT III, new OT IV, new OT V, new OT VI, new OT VII, new OT VIII, new OT
IX, new OT X, new OT XI, L-10, L-11, L-12 and OT Review Auditing.

Stacy Young is taken to Gilman Hot Springs. She was "on the decks" for 3
months after she and Vaughn tried to escape and were caught in Hemet.
3 January 1989
The probate court ordered distribution of the estate of LRH, including
ownership of various interests in the Advanced Technology.
A Decree of Distribution is issued by the probate court, the remaining
assets of LRH's estate, including all of the copyrights to LRH's works have
been transferred to Norman Starkey, Trustee of Authors Family Trust-B.
28 January 1989
Norman Starkey files an Affidavit of Executor, stating that the estate of
LRH has been fully administered. Pursuant to the Decree of Distribution
issued by the probate court, the remaining assets of the estate, including
all of the copyrights to LRH's works have been transferred to Norman Starkey
Trustee of Authors Family Trust-B. (A list of Ron's works is attached.)
30 January 1989
Attorney Sherman Lenske files a Fictitious Business Name Statement for
"Norman Starkey as Trustee of Author's Family Trust-B". The Fictitious
Business Name being filed is "L. Ron Hubbard Library" located at 6515 Sunset
Blvd, Suite 202, Los Angeles, Ca 90028.
14 February 1989
Recorded in the Assignments and Documentation Division of the US Copyright

1989
The IRS won against Scientology in Hernandez v Commissioner, 490 U.S. 680
(1989). The IRS denial of tax exemption is upheld by the court.
July 1989
The California Court of Appeal upheld the ruling in the Larry Wollersheim
case, repeating the earlier court's statement that he had been subjected to
the Church's Fair Game policy. However, the award was adjusted to 2.5
million.
16 December 1989
The precise target of the FBI raid in 1977 was the Snow White program in the
Intelligence Bureau of the G.O. It is CSI's contention that it has
disassociated itself from the criminals in the G.O. This is untrue. Grace
Marie Haddy worked for USGO Intelligence Bureau. A non-existence formula on
this date from Grace Marie Haddy, as Snow White Programs Chief OSA US, shows
that she is still on staff and also that Snow White is still being done.
Also, a Scientologist lawyer, Kendrick Moxon, was an unindicted
co-conspirator in the FBI raid and he is still on staff and working for
Miscavige. Two more former GO intelligence personnel are Gary Klinger and
Jeff Schreiber, and they continue doing intelligence work for RTC. Two of
the people who went to jail, Henning Heldt and Jane Kember, are back working
undercover for OSA.
You have now seen enough criminal black intelligence operations by RTC on
this time track to know that these criminal activities did not stop.
Note:
This is very important:
Miscavige says his reason for dismantling the GO was that the GO had crimes.
Yet, the criminal activity did not stop.
DM continued it and he and RTC and OSA are every bit as criminal as the GO
ever was.
That proves it was not the real reason for disbanding the G.O.
Disbanding the Guardian's Office because of their crimes is Miscavige's
cover story.
It is not the real reason.
The real reason was that he and others conspired to seize all of
Scientology.
And the Guardian's Office was what stood in his way.
That was his real motivation in disbanding it.
Why did Miscavige want to seize Scientology?
He is not a humanitarian interested in Clearing the planet.
His excessively high prices bar the majority of people from services.
Also proving it is lawsuits brought on splinter groups that were not
squirreling the tech.
He does not care about the tech. His squirreling proves that.
Being suppressive, he is not there to make OTs:
In 19 years since the release of OT 7, not one valid completion yet.
Look at the overt products of OT 7 & 8. Many OT 7 & 8 deaths and psychotic
breaks.
The squirreling of OT 7 & 8 into unworkability: we cannot give the
confidential details here.
The honest staff on the Freewinds knows that no one made the grade on OT 8.
Added time: "Before releasing OT 9 all orgs have to be St Hill size first."
Added time: "Before releasing OT 9 we have to handle the suppression on the
planet first."
Above all, look at his statistics on making theta clears. Zero. Not one.
He wanted to seize it so he could get rich by helping SPs prevent anyone
becoming OT.
The aims of Scientology: A world without insanity, criminality and
war...
Miscavige and his co-conspirators are criminals.
Criminals are not going to make a world without criminals.
If the church is going to do that, then it better start by ridding itself of
Miscavige & friends:
HCOB 27 September 1966 The Antisocial Personality The Anti-Scientologist:
"Unless we can detect the social personality and hold him safe from undue
restraint and detect also the antisocial and restrain him, our society will
go on suffering from insanity, criminality and war….."
"Of all of our technical skills, such differentiation ranks the highest
since, failing, no other skill can continue, as the base on which it
operates: civilization: will not be here to continue it."
So, being able to identify SPs is not some minor thing. It is our top
technical skill!
If we cannot identify who is an antisocial personality and restrain
him THEN WE ARE NOT GOING TO ACHIEVE THE AIMS OF SCIENTOLOGY
1990's
In the 1990s, Major Ed Dames offers a course in remote viewing to the public
for $4,500.00 a person. He is the CIA Officer who was involved in the CIA
Remote Viewing Program at SRI in the 1970's.
This course utilizes Scientology technology and he charges money for it. He
has sold this to an estimated 10,000 people and also offers videotapes for
$299.00. The Church of Spiritual Technology has brought copyright suits
against others for this but oddly, they have done nothing about Major Dames
doing it.
(Probably more of Miscavige's friends: you know: IRS, Interpol, CIA, etc.)
February 1990
Michael Pattinson completes OT VIII. His homosexuality appeared resolved
until 2 months later when the urge returned. He had spent $500,000.00 and
was broke, therefore he could not buy more auditing to handle the problem.
At this point, priest-penitent privileged information was taken from his
confessional folders and made public. The MAA on the Freewinds sent the
confessional data to Celebrity Center in Paris. Olivia Pilo also called his
business associates to see if they had any "dirt" on him that could be used
against him.
The information was used to show his friends and business associates so they
would disconnect from him, thus destroying his business. On two occasions,
staff members and his friends were told to write KRs on him and given the
data to put in the reports. The reports were secret and false and
robotically said what they were told to say in them, omitting any reference
in the reports that they had been provided with the false data. Over the
next several years he spends $120,000.00 just in the effort to clear his
name of the false accusations made against him.

6 May 1991
An article appears in Time Magazine "Scientology:The Cult of Greed". Steven
Fishman is quoted in the article. Former RTC exec, Vicki Aznaran, also says
in the article "This is a criminal organization day in and day out."
The church sues Fishman for defamation in the US District Court for the
Central District of California. In the course of that trial, Fishman
submitted 69 pages of OT materials to the court in his defense. Thus, as a
matter of public record, copies of the OT materials got out, until August
1995 when the church got the files sealed.
1991
Hemet California is a small town of about 1000 people. It is where "the
Base" is, in other words, International management. One day they received
orders to go vote for a certain candidate for Mayor. So, 500 Sea Org members
were bused to town to vote and this person was then elected to office.
Note:
It is illegal for a religion in the U.S. to involve itself in political
lobbying. It cannot endorse candidates, etc. To do so will cost it it's tax
exempt status.

Memorandum Opinion And Order in RTC v Robin Scott:
This motion revives the issue of authorship of certain Scientology
scriptures called NOTs. RTC argues that the "work made for hire" doctrine,
as codified by the Copyright Act of 1976, necessarily imputes authorship of
NOTs to Hubbard whether he or David Mayo actually created the materials.
The thrust of the defendants opposition is that Mayo was not an employee of
Hubbard when Mayo developed the NOTs materials.
The court finds that it is an established fact that Mayo substantially
participated in the drafting of NOTs. Ordinarily the creator of a written
work is the author. However, the Copyright Act of 1976 treats "works made
for hire" differently. If the written work is a work made for hire, "the
employer or other person for whom the work was prepared is considered the
author." 17 U.S.C. section 201(a).
RTC submitted documents to the court showing that Mayo was hired by CSC to
perform work under the supervision of Hubbard. The court rejects that
Hubbard was Mayo's employer but finds that CSC was his employer. It was
established by the court that:
NOTs is based on Mayo's auditing of LRH. The Church literally follows
everything Hubbard said, therefore, Hubbard's suggestions and criticism
regarding the earlier drafts of NOTs would be adopted verbatim by CSC.
Moreover, as reflected in the excerpted transcripts of the tapes, Hubbard
actually exercised his right to control by making suggestions and
criticisms.
The court determined that Mayo was an employee of CSC acting within the
scope of his employment when he drafted NOTs, thus his substantial
contribution to NOTs constitutes work made for hire under the Copyright Act.
14 June 1991
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of Technical Volume IX.
1991
Miscavige pays an unannounced visit to IRS Commissioner Fred T. Goldberg Jr.
Goldberg then created a "special committee" to negotiate a settlement with
Scientology outside normal agency procedures! The secret "negotiations
committee" was chaired by Howard M. Schoenfeld. As a result of these
negotiations:
The Exempt Organizations Technical Division was instructed not to review the
exemption applications filed by the Church of Scientology and its affiliates
for compliance with IRC 501(c)(3).
According to the New York Times, tax analysts Donna Moore and Terrell M.
Berkovsky wrote memoranda specifying that they had been instructed by
Shoenfeld not to address issues like whether the church was engaged in too
much commercial activity or whether its activities provided undue benefit to
its leaders.
13 May 1991
Norman Starkey, Trustee of Author's Family Trust-B, makes an additional
agreement with RTC regarding use of the Advanced Technology. It is called;
Addendum to Advanced Technology Covenant.
Late 1991
Jesse Prince and wife were ordered to have an abortion in the S.O. It is a
traumatic experience for each of them. Any Sea Org members getting pregnant
are put in lower conditions and sent to welfare to have a free abortion.
Note:
Another indication of Miscavige bringing the tone level of the organization
to 1.1: no children allowed in the Sea Org and ordering abortions.
27 January 1992
Another former RTC member writes an affidavit that says Miscavige conceives,
plans and orders the actions of the church against those whom he considers
to be against his personal control over Scientology. He has such church
members expelled by false denunciations and then uses GO tactics, such as
"Fair Game" against them. This included the formation of vigilante groups to
physically attack these people.
29 June 1992
The United States Claims Court upholds the decision of the IRS Commissioner
to deny tax exempt status to the Church of Spiritual Technology. The court
finds that CST was founded for the primary purpose of gaining tax exempt
status to serve the financial goals of other, non-exempt entities, and that
CST's archiving activities are secondary to its obtaining a tax exemption
and would not of themselves qualify CST as a tax exempt organization under
I.R.C. @ 501 (c)(3).
The court notes that CST, CSI and RTC all applied for tax exemption at the
same time. The IRS requested information about the circumstances surrounding
the founding of these three organizations. The IRS specifically asked CST
who initiated and oversaw the reorganization of the Scientology hierarchy.
The IRS also enumerated the connections it saw among the three applicants
and the existing Scientology hierarchy and asked for comment. Specifically,
the IRS asked for an explanation of the option agreements CST held under
LRH's gift. CST refused to answer these questions, saying the agreements speak
for themselves.
CST represented to the IRS Commissioner in 1985 that it understood its
rights to include the following: "In the event it is determined that
Religious Technology Center is not exempt, this corporation will exercise
its options and acquire the marks and materials…" In its 1987 Supplemental
Submission, CST attempted to back away from this interpretation but still
conceded if the IRS recognizes CST's exemption, CST would have the power to
acquire RTC's rights in the marks and Advanced Technology if RTC's exemption
were denied. When its exemption is recognized, CST will receive Mr. Hubbard'
s estate and become owner of the limited powers of appointment over the
marks and the Advanced Technology that Mr. Hubbard retained. As owner of
these interests, CST will have the legal right to designate the section
501(c)(3) transferee of RTC's rights in the marks and the Advanced
Technology in the event RTC cannot obtain exemption. As a section 501 (c)(3)
organization, CST itself would qualify to receive these rights.
The religious trademarks and rights to the Advanced Technology constitute
most of the income-producing property owned by any of the Scientology
organizations. The remainder of LRH's income-producing property is already
designated for CST. Upon its qualification for tax exempt status, CST could,
therefore, obtain, by operation of LRH's will, all of the rights LRH
reserved when he made his gift to RTC, as well as the copyrights to
Scientology Scriptures, which presumably constitute the very heart of
Scientology.
The copyrights to LRH's science fiction works will also devolve to CST under
the will. This intellectual property alone was valued at $25,000,000 by the
Trustee appointed by the court to administer LRH's estate.
In these circumstances it is at best disingenuous for CST to maintain that
it is "independent" of Scientology's ecclesiastical hierarchy. LRH certainly
succeeded in creating an entity that is not nominally subject to the
ecclesiastical control of other Scientology organizations. Rather, the
potential control runs in the opposite direction. CST stands poised to
assume a position at the apex of a pyramid of both ecclesiastical authority
and financial control over Scientology.
Finally, the converse of CST's control in the area of orthodoxy is that
until it obtains tax-exempt status, CST will be as it has been, entirely
dependent on payments from other Scientology organizations. Indeed, CST's
Articles of Incorporation specifically state that it does not solicit any
funds itself, nor does it have any plans to do so. CST states that it alone
controls its financial matters. Possibly this is true with respect to how
money is spent once held by CST. It is not true, however, with respect to
obtaining the money that it spends. All of this has come from other
Scientology organizations. The fact that CST does not raise its own funds is
itself unusual for a would-be IRC 501(c)(3) organization, and limits its
ability to be independent.
In sum, there is a strong link, in fact an identity of purpose, between CST
and other Scientology organizations. CST was created to serve LRH as a
personal estate-planning device and to support the work of Scientology.
CST has assiduously developed a record which demonstrates that most, if not
all, of its prior activities are directed at preserving Scripture. CST
confuses activity with purpose. The law does not. As the Tax Court has held,
"the operational test focuses on the purpose and not on the nature of the
activity." The Commissioner and the court, are permitted to consider not
just an organizations activities, but also to inquire into its purposes. The
fact that an organization's activities have religious overtones and do not
produce profits is no assurance those activities will be tax exempt.
The assets of the pour-over trust devolve on CST: namely the right to the
books, tapes, films and E-meters, along with the accumulated income
therefrom. These are licensed to for-profit entities for distribution, such
as BPI. This arrangement simply does not resonate with the image of a tax
exempt organization.
The court was asked to find that holding the options and receiving LRH's
estate are merely incidental to its primary archiving purpose. Instead, the
court finds that the impetus behind CST was not archiving, charity, or even
religious education, but rather was tax planning. Nothing about CST is
consistent with its adopted posture as a simple document repository.
First, there is plain linkage between CST and the dissolution of CSC, as
well as the difficulties Scientology as a whole was having in 1982 with the
IRS. Before the creation of CST, CSC served Scientology as a tax exempt
entity. When it became apparent that CSC was likely to lose this status, LRH
and the Scientology management restructured both the financial and the
ecclesiastical organization of Scientology. CST was created in 1982, during
the CSC litigation. It was founded by four non-Scientologist lawyers and
Lyman Spurlock, President of CST and former personal employee of LRH, in the
wake of CSC's dissolution.
The court is struck by the centripetal force that will be generated should
CST obtain tax exempt status, and should it choose to exercise its option to
take over assets from RTC. Armed with the trademarks and publishing rights,
and with tax exempt status, CST will be poised in the center of all of
Scientology's financial resources, in position to exert a strong
gravitational force on Scientology's income-producing assets.
CST states that it would never seek to control these assets, or use them in
any way inconsistent with the stated religious purposes of Scientology. CST
has provided only conclusory statements of its own officers as evidence of
CST's intentions. Moreover, CST has stated on at least one occasion that "it
will exercise its options and acquire the marks and materials."
If CST succeeds in its quest for tax exempt status, it will control the
trademark and publishing rights to all of LRH's works. Those rights
constitute most of Scientology's income-producing property. The trademarks
and publishing rights are the source of the Advanced Technology from which
all income production ultimately flows. Books and tapes must be orthodox.
Provision of auditing services is impossible without authorized books, tapes
and E-Meters. These materials produce money in sufficient quantities to
allow CSI to hold millions of surplus dollars in its central reserve
account. The potential for abuse of the options and copyrights therefore is
considerable. CST would not be obligated to donate the money to other
non-profit groups, or even to contribute it to Scientology's own central
reserves. In fact, once CST has built its archiving facilities, its expenses
should decline dramatically, but it will still control millions of dollars
worth of income-producing assets.
There is a dissonance between the stated, limited purposes of CST on the one
hand, with the far reaching implications of the potential financial control
over Scientology built into LRH's tax planning. If the true motivation
behind CST were to build an archive, it would have been a simple matter to
incorporate an organization and arrange for financing through the central
reserves or some other straightforward financing scheme. What other possible
purpose could there have been for funneling LRH's estate to an organization
with such a nominally limited and innocuous function unless it was the hope
that Scientology had achieved the holy grail: an organization with
unassailable tax-exempt credentials, yet in control of the income from the
myriad sources within Scientology?
This concern is exacerbated by the fact that CST will receive nothing from
LRH's estate if it is not deemed tax exempt. Thus, it appears that despite
the stated importance of its archives to the Scientology religion, they were
apparently not worth supporting unless they generated a tax exemption.
Protecting the use of Scientology trademarks and copyrights is also
apparently not worth doing if it will not be done by a tax-exempt
organization.
The court came to the conclusion that archiving is not CST's "exclusive" or
even chief purpose. The court finds that CST is merely the latest
incarnation of the on-going effort of Scientology as a whole to shelter
income from taxation.
The court finds the IRS Commissioner's decision to deny CST tax exempt
status was not erroneous and dismisses CST's complaint.
Note: During the IRS investigation it inquired about Sherman Lenske, Stephen
Lenske and Lawrence Keller and their role as CST's "Special Directors."
July 1992
Jesse Prince and wife escape from Gilman Hot Springs. Under duress, they are
brought back until October of this year.
13 July 1992
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of LRH State of Man Congress lectures.
1992
C of S is convicted of criminal conduct in Canada. Stealing documents from
government files.
Summer 1992
Jesse Prince is being held at the Int base known as the Old Gilman House. It
is used as an isolation house for physically ill SO members. He wants to
leave staff.
31 October 1992
Jesse Prince and wife are allowed to leave the Sea Org after being coerced
to sign a release containing untrue statements protecting Scientology from
legal liability. The way they forced them to sign was her dad and sister
were in Scientology and they were told that they would never see them again
unless they signed. Jesse did not even read the papers. He just signed them
so they could leave and his wife could still be in communication with her
relatives.
1993
Tax fraud is committed in connection with obtaining tax exempt status. Andre
Tabayoyan removes 12 ocean-going sea containers of commingled RTC, CSI and
other documents from Gilman Hot Springs, prior to the IRS inspection. He
buries them.
1 October 1993
The Department of Justice tells the IRS to issue a tax exemption. The
Community Relations Service of the Department of Justice negotiated a secret
Civil settlement with both the Church of Scientology and the Church
Universal & Triumphant of Montana. Dow Jones and a Montana newspaper have
sued the Dept of Justice to try and find out what is going on. The Dept of
Justice has acted illegally: they must reveal Civil settlements to the
public.
For the Dept of Justice to tell the IRS what to do, they must do it at the
Cabinet level with the President sitting, listening and agreeing to the
breach of law.
The IRS made a deal with Scientology. They gave them tax exemption without
telling why, although they had won against Scientology in Hernandez v
Commissioner, 490 U.S. 680 (1989) and in Church of Spiritual Technology v
U.S., US Claims Court No. 581-88T, 6/29/92 (1992)
Note:
What is this about the Justice Department ordering the IRS to give
Scientology tax exemption, based on a secret settlement agreement? That's
odd. What was the agreement? That Miscavige will squirrel the OT levels and
not make any OTs in exchange for tax exemption? We will be doing further
investigation into this.
David Miscavige meets with the IRS Commissioner. After 40 years of fighting,
the IRS gives Scientology tax exemption. The terms of the agreement are kept
secret and not disclosed to other church members. It is a 61 page document.
The Church pays the IRS 12.5 million and agrees to drop thousands of suits
against the IRS. It also agrees to stop assisting others in lawsuits against
the IRS.
The secret settlement agreement permits Miscavige and certain other
Scientologists to monitor, supervise, and compel their own "compliance", and
that of all Scientologists, with the tax laws of the US thereby constituting
them "state actors" and agents of the IRS.
A copy of the 61 page secret agreement was obtained and it states:
The parties have entered into this agreement in order to put the past
controversy behind them, to extinguish all potential claims and liabilities
arising as a result of action or inaction prior to the date of this
Agreement and to structure their relationship into the future.
First, under section II of the Agreement the Church will make a single
payment that is intended to extinguish any potential tax liability that may
be due and unpaid by any Scientology-related entity for all tax years up to
and including the tax year ending in 1992.
Second, under section II of the Agreement, the Church and the Service will
withdraw from virtually all existing controversy, including on-going
examinations of Church entities, ongoing litigation by the Service to
enforce summonses for Church records, and all litigation by the Church
against the Service and its current or former personnel. Similarly, no
Scientology-related entity may initiate or support any legal action against
the Service or any Service employee for any claim arising prior to the date
of the Agreement.
Notwithstanding the above, in light of, inter alia, the size and complexity
of the Church and the Service, certain concerns of the Service and the
Church remain. Thus, under section IV, a Church Tax Compliance Committee
(CTCC) has been created to undertake certain obligations during the
seven-year transition period. The CTCC is to be comprised of the largest
United States Church entities, as well as those individuals who are the
highest ecclesiastical or corporate authorities within the Church. The
Service, through the Assistant Commissioner, has agreed to meet with the
CTCC upon their request during the transition period to address any
questions arising from the ongoing performance of the parties' obligations
under this Agreement.
In light of the CTCC and its relationship to the whole of Scientology, the
CTCC has agreed under section IV to guarantee the collection of taxes
(including interest and penalties) from any Scientology-related entity for
tax liability arising during the first three years of the seven year
transition period. The parties have agreed under section V to keep
confidential both this Agreement and all underlying information that is not
part of the public record….
At the same time this Agreement is executed, Church of Scientology
International is paying by banker's draft the sum of $12,500,000.00, receipt
of which the Service hereby acknowledges, as consideration for the
settlement of outstanding issues with the Service as set forth in this
Agreement.
The corporate CTCC members are Religious Technology Center (RTC), Church of
Spiritual Technology (CST), Church of Scientology Flag Service Organization
(CSFSO), Church of Scientology Western United States (CSWUS), Building
Management Services (BMS), and Church of Scientology Religious Trust (CSRT).
The individual members of the CTCC are David Miscavige, Norman Starkey, Mark
Rathburn and Heber Jentzsch. No individual member of the CTCC shall be
permitted to withdraw from service on the CTCC, except by reason of death,
being adjudicated an incompetent, or by mutual agreement of the parties of
this Agreement.
Specific responsibilities and duties of the CTCC shall include the
following:
a. Annual Report.
c. The CTCC and the Assistant Commissioner shall meet no less than once each
year.
i. The corporate CTCC members absolutely and unconditionally, jointly and
severally, guarantee to the Service the full and prompt payment of all U.S.
tax liabilities under the Code (including but not limited to income tax),
together with all interest and penalties, accruing or arising during the
first three years of the transition period with respect to all
Scientology-related entities.
4. David Miscavige will act as the initial Chairman of the CTCC. He may be
removed from this office and replaced by another individual CTCC member by
majority vote of the CTCC members.
D. Certifications.
1. In general, by executing this agreement, the Church signatories in their
trust or corporate capacities, and their subscribing officers or trustees
individually, certify under penalty of perjury the following to the best of
their knowledge, information and belief:
a. that all Scientology-related entities are in compliance with the Code,
Treasury regulations and other Service pronouncements of general guidance
and applicability;
c. that no Scientology-related entity or Scientology-related individual (in
his or her capacity as such) has, after 1986, knowingly committed any act of
fraud or criminal conduct that might constitute a violation of public policy
endangering the tax-exempt status of any Scientology-related entity…
6. Norman F. Starkey, as Trustee of Author's Family Trust B, shall, no later
than December 31, 1993, effectuate the transfer of substantially all of the
corpus and income in Author's Family Trust B, including all the shares of
Author Services, Inc. (ASI) as permitted under the will of L.Ron Hubbard to
the Church of Spiritual Technology (CST) without consideration.
H. Finality. This agreement is final and conclusive except:
1. The matter it relates to may be reopened in the event of fraud,
malfeasance, or misrepresentation of material fact;
Note:
So, by this secret agreement, David Miscavige and some other top execs have
now become IRS agents. Working to enforce the payment of taxes.
November 1993
IAS Event:
At a public event, Miscavige announces the war is over.
The following are some Miscavige quotes at the event:
" As you no doubt realize, the IRS is basic on the chain of attacks on
Scientology."
LRH says:
Our enemies on this planet are less than 12 men. They are, oddly enough,
directors in all of the mental health groups in the world …and they control,
of course, income tax. (RJ 67)
Miscavige says at the event:
"Over the years the IRS finally assembled a team of some very decent
individuals to resolve these matters with us."
LRH says:
There are no good government or SP group agents. (HCOPL 26 December 1966)
Miscavige says at the event:
"The Internal Revenue Service…once our enemy, now see us as friends. And for
my part, the feeling is mutual."
LRH says:
"... the United States government and the efforts of that government since
1955, stepped up since 1963, TO SEIZE SCIENTOLOGY RATHER THAN FORBID OR STOP
IT..." -- (HCOPL 14 June 1965)
Miscavige says at the event:
"All of LRH's tech has been made available in a pure, unadulterated form."
The GOLDEN AGE OF SQUIRRELING proves that is a lie.
"The war is over!" That's right: but not because we won it - because
Scientology lost.
27 October 1993
Library of Congress records show that:
CSI copyrights their squirrel version of LRH Clearing Congress lectures.
29 November 1993
Norman Starkey, Trustee of Author's Family Trust-B, transfers ownership of
all LRH copyrighted works to CST. This includes the agreements with RTC,
allowing RTC use of the Advanced Technology.
29 November 1993
The Library of Congress records show that on this date:
Norman Starkey, trustee for Author's Family Trust:B, transfers copyrights
for:
"Model of OT ship organization and operation based on 7 division system &
7,730 other titles." Full document range: (In V2927 P238-724)
LRH's Professional Scientologist Newsletter Vol 1 no. 4. B287706 (In V2927
P636 thru 646)
to the Church of Spiritual Technology.
Note:
This was mandated by the secret agreement that Miscavige made with the IRS.
Late 1993
Marty Rathbun blew his post. He was brought back and held captive at the
Freewinds.
Later he is Inspector General of RTC.
Note: That's funny. Right after the big "IRS win"?
What does Marty know about "the win" that we don't?
2 May 1994
In keeping with their new jobs as IRS agents, top execs issue a Scientology
Policy Directive on this date, entitled: "Personal Income Taxes", which
says in part:
"Until the tax system is changed, a Scientologist who refuses to file a tax
return, to pay required income taxes, or to comply with other tax laws, is
in violation of the Scientology ethics codes and by his or her unethical
conduct is placing himself and the group at risk. Such a person will be
ineligible for Church services until the matter is rectified. Anyone
promoting to other Scientologists not to pay taxes or file returns or
promoting any of the various tax protest schemes, will be subject to
discipline under the Scientology justice codes."
19 May 1994
Vicki Aznaran settles her suit against Scientology for $25,000.00. She signs
a gag order as part of the settlement.
4 August 1994
OSA has David Mayo arrested at his home in the Dominican Republic on false
charges of drug smuggling. Interpol had called the head of the Dominican
Republic drug department to get Mayo arrested. (In case you didn't know,
like the IRS, DM is also friends with Interpol.)
14 September 1994
Randy McDonald becomes aware that upper level management is writing their
own policy, called Scientology Policy Directives (SPD).
He writes a High Crime Report on Tax Compliance Officer OSA Int. and AVC
Int. for enforcing Scientology Policy Directive 2 May 1994 Personal Income
Taxes, on him.
McDonald's knowledge report notes that what the SPD says violates various
HCOPLs and the very existence of SPD's also violates HCOPLs.
Per HCOPL 9 August 1972 Seniority Of Orders:
"Any practice by which junior issues, such as directives, abolish networks
or make off-policy changes can only result in the destruction of networks,
orgs and tech.
This is therefore a High Crime policy letter and it is an offense both to
follow or obey or issue any verbal or written order or directive which is
contrary to or changes or abolishes anything set up in HCO Policy Letters or
HCOBs...."
November 18, 1994
The Library of Congress records show that on this date:
Mary Sue Hubbard, widow, Diana Meredith Dewolf Hubbard Ryan, Mary Suzette
Rochelle Hubbard, Arthur Ronald Conway Hubbard, Lafayette Ronald Conway
Hubbard Jr., aka L. Ron Hubbard Jr. aka Nibs Hubbard aka Ronald Dewolf &
Katherine May Hubbard Gillespie, children of deceased author L.Ron Hubbard,
copyright assignment:
Ceremonies of the Founding Church of Scientology & 1,364 other titles by L.
Ron Hubbard. Full document range: (In V3058 P 155-208)
to the Church of Spiritual Technology.
24 December 1994
Using an anonymous remailer in the Netherlands, someone posted several OT
documents on the internet news group called alt.religion.scientology. The
postings caught the attention of Dennis Erlich, OT 7, who commented on the
postings and pronounced them genuine.
January 1995
RTC files a suit on Dennis Erlich and his internet service provider for
violating its copyrights on the internet.
13 February 1995
Accompanied by police officers with a writ of seizure, RTC reps enter the
home of Dennis Erlich in Glendale, California. The RTC reps are Warren
McShane, Thomas Small and Paul Wilmhurst. They seize all material he has on
the subject of Scientology.
The raid on Erlich's home and the suit galvanized many internet users
against the Church of Scientology. New web pages were created posting
affidavits from other Scientology cases. As one commentator pointed out
"The church made enemies of a host of people who had previously not even
registered its existence."
May 1995
Julie Mayo is held at customs and interrogated for 5 hours based on a false
report (from OSA operatives) that she was drug smuggling.
14 May 1995
Randy McDonald writes a High Crime Report on David Miscavige, Chairman of
the Board of RTC and Jim Morrow, Tax Compliance Officer of OSA Int.
Randy's report says that Jim Morrow attempted to justify the existence of
Scientology Policy Directive 2 May 1994 Personal Income Taxes by saying that
it was based on the secret IRS agreement.
Randy's report also says that Miscavige is guilty of withholding vital
information for keeping the details of the IRS agreement a secret from other
Scientologists.
15 May 1995
Randy McDonald writes a High Crime Report on Jim Morrow and Ray Mithoff,
Senior C/S Int.
In his report he quotes HCOPL 5 March 1965 Policy Source Of:
"If it is not in an HCO Policy Letter, it is not policy."
Randy's report says that since there is no HCOPL that establishes anything
called Scientology Policy Directives, that all SPDs are an unauthorized type
of issue.
Note:
There are actually hundreds of these SPDs. Not only are they not authorized
by LRH, but a study of them shows they are either:
The following High Crime is being committed by those who write and follow
SPDs:
"Running any organization on squirrel "policy" or third dynamic
administrative or management procedures that are contrary to approved
policy."
Hereafter, Randy McDonald would not shut up about top management being off
source. He is not alone. There have been hundreds of Scientologists who have
noticed that top management is off-source and is guilty of squirreling both
policy and tech.
Top management's solution to Randy McDonald noticing they were off source,
was the same solution they have used on hundreds of other Scientologists who
have noticed they are off source. Their solution is: discredit the person
reporting on them.
The following pattern has emerged:
The purpose of this Black PR campaign is to get other Scientologists to
think he is a bad hat. This results in cutting the person's comm lines
so that he cannot alert other Scientologists to the squirreling being
done by upper level management.
It also ensures that no one will defend him when they attack him with a
comm ev.
The end result of the above "ethics" and "justice" actions is a perversion
of Scientology ethics. The purpose of ethics is to get tech in. Not to
protect squirrels. But, since the squirrels in this situation are senior to
org ethics officers, org ethics officers have been powerless to do anything
about the squirrels.
Thus, top management has also squirreled Scientology ethics. They use it to
attack Scientologists who are reporting on their squirreling, instead of its
true purpose given by LRH in policy, to get tech in.
In the area of tech, they have re-written over a thousand of LRH's technical
issues, in addition to that they have massively altered LRH taped lectures.
The number of alterations is so massive that we cannot include them all in
this time track. We are only including a few of the alterations on this time
track, to serve as an example of their squirreling. It should be understood
that the amount of squirreling is not limited to our examples on this time
track.
Thus, top management has turned all of Scientology into a squirrel group, in
all 3 areas. Squirrels are at the top of the command lines and this has
resulted in all orgs being run on squirrel admin, squirrel tech, and
squirrel ethics.
Any Scientologist who tries to report on the squirreling and attempts to
apply KSW, is done away with in the manner stated above, because the
squirrels are at the top and in command.
The above sounds pretty fantastic, doesn't it? But, you don't have to
believe us. You can personally find out if it is true. Pick up any one of a
thousand pieces of tech they have altered. Write a High Crime report on
Miscavige and insist the tech be put back the way LRH wrote it. Hold your
ground. Now start telling other Scientologists about the out tech. And you
too can watch all of the above happen to you.
As stated earlier, there are hundreds of Scientologists who have noticed
that Miscavige and his top aides are squirrels and they have been handled by
"ethics" as above. Each of their individual stories would take a time track
all by themselves, so there is no effort here to include all of the details
on this time track. If you want to know their individual stories about how
they were treated when they applied KSW, ask them. It's an eye-opener.
23 June 1995
Judge Whyte in RTC v Netcom rules that HCO Manual of Justice was not
entitled to copyright protection. The 1959 copyright notice had gone beyond
the original 28 year term and expired in 1987 and no renewal was timely
obtained.
Summer 1995
Scamizdat, an electronic magazine with anonymous editors, and other internet
providers, posted OT documents to sites throughout the internet. The Fishman
affidavit appeared on servers throughout the world.
7 July 1995
In order to draw attention off of their High Crimes of writing and enforcing

RTC files suit for copyright infringement against Lerma and his internet
provider. An Arlington, Virginia court ordered the seizure of Lerma's
personal computer, floppy disks, and any copies of Scientology's copyrighted
works found in his home. The judge in the case was not aware that Lerma's
postings were based on a publicly available document. RTC execs, accompanied
by federal marshals, searched and confiscated these materials from Lerma's
home.
15 September 1995
Judge Kane denies RTC their injunction against FACTnet. Judge Kane said: The
alleged copying by the defendants was not of a commercial nature. Rather, it
was made for non-profit purposes to advance understanding of issues
concerning the church, which are the subject of on-going controversy. The
postings may well be considered as having been made for the purposes of
criticism, comment, or research falling within the fair use doctrine, under
section 107 of the Copyright Act.
He also rules that the OT materials do not qualify as trade secrets because
evidence indicates they are in the public domain. Judge Kane concluded that
the Fishman materials posted by Lerma were not trade secrets because they
were widely known outside of the church through multiple sources.
The same day, Judge Brinkema in Virginia ruled the same as Judge Kane in
Colorado and vacated the writ of seizure she had given to RTC to seize all
of Lerma's Scientology materials. The judge ordered RTC to return all of the
seized materials to Lerma. Judge Brinkema also concluded that the Fishman
materials were not trade secrets.

an injunction against Dennis Erlich and Netcom for misappropriation of trade
secrets, concluding that they were already "generally available to the
public." He also vacated his writ of seizure and ordered RTC to return all
of Erlich's possessions to him. The judge did grant the church a preliminary
injunction against Erlich, because he thought it was likely to prevail in
its suit against him for copyright infringement.

alloy, negate, and even eradicate parts of LRH's technology, then sell the
alter-ised versions to staff and public while he uses his position over
Scientology and Scientologists to assert the "purity" of the tech. It is
Felony Corporate and Trademark Fraud involving millions of dollars; it
crosses State lines and utilizes U.S. mails which makes it a Federal
offense...
