"More substancial" as in the cult issuing autographed photos
of overboarding? I know of no better source than a.r.s. and
court documents.

83.  Miscavige, at this same briefing or muster, also picked
out several particular staff members' surveys and read them
to the crew so the crew could see how terrible these people
were because they wanted to go to Vons market, or to movies
or to have some time off from their post and duties.

84.  The next day at the canteen (a private store on the
Hemet compound) there were professionally made signs above
the doors that said Vons and a Vons grocery cart.  One staff
member came in and decided it was a ridiculous thing and
decided to take the signs down.  Chris Guider, who worked
directly for Miscavige, found out about it and this person
was thrown into the lake. This is a practice called
"overboarding." It started on the Apollo where I participated
in the overboarding of many Scientologists who had angered
Hubbard.  Indeed, I was thrown overboard myself and only
survived because of Hubbard's last minute decision to have me
plucked from the seas.  Now overboarding is down at the lake
on the base.  I have seen dozens of people thrown fully
clothed into the water (even in winter) because they did not
meet their production quotas or statistics.

25.  I worked personally with Hubbard on the ship called the
Apollo, from 1971-73.  I personally observed Hubbard running
all aspects of Scientology and Sea Org and Guardian Office
("GO") networks.  Indeed, at the time I believed Hubbard has
saved my life.  I had been "overboarded" or thrown aboard.
Hubbard then ordered that I be pulled out.  Thereafter I
believed Hubbard had saved my life and I became very
dedicated to both him and Scientology.  I served as both
steward and butler for Hubbard.  Accordingly, I was often
alone with him -- even when he was self injecting himself in
the arm with a needle and solution.  This he did frequently.
I would also lay out the pills he took from 10 different
numbered bottles.

     I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the
United States of America and of the State of California that
the foregoing is true and correct.  Executed in Los Angeles,
California this 5th day of March, 1994.

     16.  Mr. Farny says there is no punishment in the
Scientology belief system.  For the general public, this is
true.  But it is not true for staff and there are many
recorded instances of which I am personally aware:  people
being locked in a room and screamed at by several people
until they break or confess; people being locked up in chain
lockers on Hubbard's boat on his orders; people being thrown
overboard with hands and feet tied; people put on diets of
rice and beans; people kept up for days without sleep; people
being made to sleep on floors, in closets or in "pig's
berthing" (the name says it); people spending years at hard
labor at the notorious (and secret) gulags known as the
Rehabilitation Project Force (RPF); people being physically
assaulted and beaten for refusing to comply; people being
made to run until they dropped in the desert sun and then
being made to run some more, etc.

A PIECE         Scientology, Dianetics

**********************************************

In mid-August, the Royal Scotman had slipped into Corfu
harbor.  At first all went well. According to one newspaper,
the Sea  Org enriched the Corfiot economy by about 1,000 per
day. They  were welcomed by the harbormaster, and the local
press. '~ In September, Hubbard announced the new Class VIII
Auditor Course,  in the Auditor magazine. The announcement
was accompanied by  a center spread of Hubbard's photographs.
There is a shot of  an Ethics Officer, carrying a heavy
wooden baton, wearing dark  glasses and full uniform, and
scowling at a student who is smiling  back, apprehensively.
The caption reads: "No one can fool a  Sea Org Ethics
Officer. He knows who's ethics bait." Another  shot shows a
Sea Org member suspended in mid-air by two Ethics  Officers,
one wearing a broad grin. He is about to be thrown  over the
rail, into the sea. The caption reads: "Students are  thrown
overboard for gross out tech and bequeathed to the deep!

...... Out tech" is a Hubbardism for "misapplication of
Scientology auditing procedures." The editor of Auditor 41
thought the photos  were a Hubbard joke. Hubbard was deadly
serious. Every Scientology Org was ordered to send two
Auditors to be  trained as "Class VIIIs." As "Vllls" their
auditing would be  "flubless." The course would take three
weeks, so previous Ethics  procedures were of little
use--they took too long to administer.  Rather than
languishing in the chain-locker for a week, or doing  three
days without sleep on "amends projects," students were  to be
subject to "instant Ethics," or overboarding. There is  no
doubt that Hubbard ordered this (one ex-Sea Org officer says
Hubbard even took out his home movie camera and filmed it
once  or twice).
