hubbard family

Question answered by FreeZone in Scientology

howdy freezoner. I worked for a short span at Bent Corydon's place in Riverside some years ago and was a personal aquaintance of Capt. Bill, especially when he was in Spain in 1980 when he lived with John Caban. I spent about 10 years in the Sea Org. My question is, do you know the current disposition of MSH, Diana, Suzette and Arthur? After MSH completed her stint as guest of the state what happened to her? Had she no legal power to control the C of S after the demise of LRH?

You know anything about this?

FreeZone gave this response on 10/2/2000:

I know very little about current statuses. MSH lives in the LA area. She is reported to be under pretty much a de facto house arrest controlled by OSA.

Diana, Arthur, and Suzette were all busted off post when Miscavige took over. Arthur was sent to DPF, Diana was indirectly heavily attacked, and Suzette was reliably reported to have been ordered to serve Miscavige as his personal maid.

Diana, after a long hiatus, has occasionally appeared in recent SO promo mags. In the recent photos, even allowing for the fact that she is now middle-aged, she looks awful and quite unhealthy. Arthur is said to be out of Scn for many years, and Suzette I have heard nothing of.

None of the LRH family had any legal influence following his death, because none had independent counsel. The lawyers 'representing' them in the estate were all controlled by Miscavige.

Is the Freezone active in Switzerland? The main area of concentration was Frankfurt area, where Capt Bill gave those lectures, is that still the case?

Jane Kember - no data. Herbie Parkhouse - no real data. Rumored several years back to be running a newsstand at Heathrow, the main London airport.

David Gaiman - done A - E. Selling vitamins for the purif. David Mayo - was formerly working with Sarge Gerbode, a former mission holder and also an MD and psychiatrist. Gerbode runs TIRA, which is using dn and scn like methods and trying to document their effectiveness well enough to get them accepted in mainstream practices. See their web site at tira.org for futher data.

OSA kept both Mayo & Gerbode in court for many years and was able to successfully split them up in the course of that. Mayo has now settled with OSA and is not involved with any group. If he audits at all now, he does it only as a solo practice.

Miscavige continues to run Co$.

I use 'free zone' broadly to indicate all clearing activities not controlled by RTC. Living in the US, I have no knowledge of Bill Robertson's group, which operates mostly in Europe and seems to be secretive, almost an underground organization. I know of free clearing activities in Austria, because the people involved have a Net presence, but I don't know anything about Switzerland.

freezoner,

as far as i know the freezone was started by Bill Robertson, he was onto this before it became a trend. The Frankfurt operation was originally wide open and certainly not any sort of secret society setup last i knew of it, and it resulted in Bill robertson delivery groups in copenhagen, madrid and zurich that i know of, in addition to the frankfurt stuff. Early on Bill Robertson and David Mayo were meeting and trying to work out a cooperative effort, but this was all a long time ago and i know nothing really except of events prior to about 1986. i know or knew well most of the principle persons involved in Europe.

my question is what is the web presence you refer to of the freezone group in austria?

also, is there any freezone activity in tennessee that you know of?

if you are in need of info on europpean scientology from the sea org point of view during the 70's you might ask me since i worked as a missionnaire for some years in that area after being on the apollo from 1971-73 with lrh and the rest of the crowd

The term 'Free Zone' was coined by Bill Robertson, at least that's my understanding. I don't think he trademarked it, however. :-)

The independent clearing practitioners in Austria I know of are Ralph Hilton (http://ralph.hilton.org) and Heidrun Beer (www.smgt.at). The Bill Robertson group uses www.freezone.org, and I believe also freezone.de. I don't know of anybody in Tennessee, although I am aware of at least one very good professional auditor in North Carolina. You might be able to get more info at www.fza.org.
