A good summation of events in 1977 can be found by reading the very lengthy
court document which is the "Stipulation of Evidence" that can be found here:

In brief summation, the Scientology cult was being heavily investigated for
a number of crimes, among them being activities involving quack medicine.
The cult had already been repeatedly punished for making quack medical
claims however the money laundering and racketeering activities of the cult
was being investigated.
According to L. Ron Hubbard -- the cult's mad messiah -- the only way to
"defend" against investigations into his criminal activities is to attack.
Insanely, he launched a criminal undertaking which the crooks called
"Operation Snow White." That involved breaking into government offices,
stealing documents, editing documents, inserting false and fraudulent
documents, extortion, blackmail, and other RICOable offenses.
Hubbard always put fall guys between himself and the law so that when the
law came down on his criminal empire, his fallguys would take the rap. He
was having lunch one day and was being served by one Heber Jentzsch.
Hubbard gave him a job being the cult's mock "international president" so
that Heber would take the fall.
For "Operation Snow White," however, he made his wife Mary Sue Hbbard the
fallguy because he was wanting to get rid of her anyway. Thus Hubbard's
wife and 10 other felons were imprisoned and Hubbard fled process servers
and the long arms of the law, hiding out here in Northern California until
he died (his death certificate included toxic levels of psychoactive -- and
illegal -- drugs in his system.)
But check out the official court documentation.
