THE LOS ANGELES BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND SCIENTOLOGY
Over the past weeks I have had occasion to be very very impressed by the boxed multi-volume multi-media submissions, of the Leona Valley and Bouquet Residents, to the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors; and arguing that the proposed Leona Valley Narconon facility "will negatively impact the safety and welfare and property values of neighboring communities."
Some of the information contained in those submissions is eerily familiar to many who have had to confront the dark side of Scientology for any length of time. For example: (1) [Exhibit D, pp.27-28] the alleged drug bust frame-up of 'a California Health Department official... who had produced a highly critical report,' resembles a similar incident experienced by former top scientology official Jesse Prince; (2) [Exhibit L, pp. 83-84, and Exhibit T, pp. 121-128] the photographs of private investigators Edwin Richardson and Talon Executive Services is not news to many who have spoken out against Scientology and later had these people "investigating" them in the neighborhoods and workplaces. Both Talon and Richardson have "noisily" investigated me at Scientology's behest ("... when we want some-one haunted we investigate." L. Ron Hubbard); (3) [Exhibit L, pp.85-87] the expression of support and solidarity by L.A. Sheriff Lee Baca is curious. One of his own lieutenants has warned me that my life may be in danger from Church of Scientology paid hit men [and I have received Secret Service protection in Germany]; (4) 'the increased fire risk from so many smoking scientologists' is truly a very serious and real concern. Hubbard was a chain smoker and many scientology staffers try to 'assume his valence' by doing the same thing.
Besides, Hubbard teaches that "the way out is the way through," as demonstrated by the Hubbard comment that smoking more cigarettes is the way to cure lung cancer! (5) The public health, safety and welfare concerns addressed in Exhibits O, P and R are also serious issues. The Purification Run down can be dangerous enough. But what about the dangers of the "isolation rundown" if some-one has a psychotic break, or 'Potential Trouble Source Type III (PTS-Type III)' condition as it is known in the cult? We only have to remember Lisa McPherson, all those scores of cockroach bites, and an ambulance ride past the three closest hospitals to the one furtherest away where there was a doctor who belonged to the Church of Scientology.
And what about the down-played relationship between Narconon and the Scientology cult? Well there's a whole three minute submission right there!
In fact, I was so impressed by the presentation of the Leona Valley residents, and so disturbed by what some of them had to tell me, that I attended the meeting of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors on July 25, 2006. There are only five supervisors for the entire Los Angeles County; it's been only five since the very early days of the County. Consequently, they are probably the five most powerful local politicians in the entire nation.
Each of the five Supervisors should be old enough to remember when eleven top Scientologists (including Hubbard's wife) were convicted and imprisoned in connection with the largest ever known criminal infiltration of the United States government. That concerned Scientology's 'Operation Snow White,' to rid all public files of anything negative about the Church of Scientology. 'Operation Snow White' continues today. There have been reports that the communications from those opposed to the Leona Valley Narconon facility have 'disappeared' from the files of the Board of Supervisors. Many expert observers would opine that this has all of the "hall marks" of a Church of Scientology-OSA "file culling project."
The Board of Supervisors meeting room probably seats 400 people and it was nearly full. Later we would learn from the President of Narconon International that Narconon [a/k/a the Church of Scientology] had over 200 people there to speak in favor of the Narconon facility. To my mind that was an exaggeration by about 100.
Certainly there were a number of senior staffers from the Scientology enterprise. One of the CSI Office of Special Affairs ('OSA') in-house attorneys, Elliot Abelson, Esq., greeted me but otherwise would not engage me in conversation. He limped slightly and looked quite over weight, wan and ill. Another observer commented to me that 'one cannot get involved in all of the bad karma that surrounds Elliot without it festering up inside.' Of course, Abelson's sick look might also be put down to too much scientology 'processing.' It may also be due to the same disciplinary affliction that ails his OSA work buddy Mike Rinder!
The very Reverend Lynn Farny, OSA Legal Unit and Secretary of Church of Scientology was more forthcoming. Lynn seemed genuinely pleased that there isn't much scientology related litigation happening at present. That made him available for other assignments. "I'll be back to put things right," I told him. I think he knew I was talking of the Vexatious litigant ruling and all of the associated perjury, bribery, blackmail, fraud and corruption. Farny once claimed to be the one who devised the Cipriano corruption directed against me. More recently, Farny's wife (another Scientology staffer) was implicated in some potential jury tampering.
I commented to Farny that Scientology seemed to be on a big building buying spree in Europe (Paris, Brussels and Berlin). Right next door to the European Community building I noted. "It's the new wave," Farny beamed. "I'm wondering where the wave of money is coming from," I replied. "From the wave of new members," Farney shot back, as he walked off. "Yeah, right, the wave of new members," I replied as he walked off, too quickly for me to add, "in all of those empty course-rooms on both sides of the Atlantic." Then I thought, 'why should Rev. Farny worry about empty course rooms at the bottom of the pyramid now that the Church is again so feverishly involved with corruption at all levels of government and law enforcement?' In Scientology's copyrighted Policy Letter "Target Defense," Church of Scientology staffers are informed of: "Target 1, depopularize the enemy (Scientology's opponents) to a point of total obliteration; Target 2, take over the control or allegiance of the heads or proprietors of all news media; Target 3, take over the control or allegiance of key political figures..."
If Lynn Farny had stuck around I might have asked about: the four British Labor Party members of the European Parliament who are now said to be Scientologists; or the several German judges who may have been compromised by the cult; or the appointment of a guardian ad litem for a Hamburg infant to ensure that the infant is protected from the cult in a custody battle involving a very senior German Scientologist, her son and her daughter-in-law; and whether the European prime real estate buying spree is due to money-laundering as police in Hamburg, Brussels and Amsterdam might suggest, or due to the movement of U.S. dollars off-shore as other Europeans have suggested. And then I wondered what he would have thought of Ursula Caberta still being where she is, and what he thought of David Miscavige still being where he is? Isn't he embarrassed by a cult leader who is accused of physically striking his senior staffers on a regular basis, and extolling them to emulate actor Tom Cruise? And the Church of Scientology compares David Miscavige to the Pope?
I also spoke with Narconon's attorney who I recall introducing himself as David Carlton, Esq. I was told his office is in Irvine, Orange County. He recognized my face from somewhere but could not tell me from where. I did not enlighten him other than to tell him I was "part of the other side; the light side."
I was carrying my papers in a large manila envelope with a bumper sticker attached clipped to it. The bumper sticker had been given to me by the wonderful and inimitable Ida Camburn and it read:
www.xenu.net What Scientology doesn't want you to read
I had walked in and out of the auditorium several times, carrying my envelope past the block of about one hundred scientologists, before the Sheriff's Deputies at the entrance door told me they had received a complaint and to cover my envelope when inside the actual hall. They were polite and I complied.
Shortly afterwards a group of two thuggish looking brutes and a woman sat down opposite me and started staring non-stop at me. They were surrounded by scientologists. The two men glaring at me looked too thuggish to be even bad P. I. s. After awhile I went over and said to the closest brute: "You are staring at me. Do I know you?" He growled, "I don't speak English. I'm Italian." Well at least he speaks some English, I thought. And then he turned to the thug behind. "Are you private investigators?" I asked. "No, we're not private investigators," the lady interrupted. Sure, I thought as I returned to my seat across the aisle. Talon's own imported Sicilian thugs more likely, and here to dish out the usual Scientology 'psycho-terror.' I'd bet that they even drive leased white Ford Explorer SUVs!
It wasn't long before the Board of Supervisors reached the agenda item so many of us were waiting for. Sam Dea was representing the Regional Planning Commission. He reported that the Narconon facility would have no substantial adverse impact upon the area. I thought he either had not read or considered the Leona Valley and Bouquet Canyon resident's submissions, or the cult had corrupted yet another public official, high up in the Regional Planning Commission. If so, that's more corruption the very Scientology-friendly Sheriff Baca will not be investigating. Hundreds of brain-washed Scientology staffers can provide a generous political donor base. They were for the late John Ferraro when he presided

I congratulate myself on having the good sense not to appear at a hearing with serious Scientology interest with my arm in a sling following last Thursday's surgery on it. I have no doubt that the cult would have done *something* once they saw my wing in a sling.
It reflects on Scientology's character that I would even have such concerns...
Thanks Graham, for this excellent write up about what all went on there. Good God, are they getting it, or not? I couldn't quite tell what the next steps are. When do they vote, or will there be another hearing?
Can you fill us in on what's next?
Thanks!
Tory/Magoo~~ PS: Super Congratulations to Dave Sweetland, ALL the Leonna Valley people, and anyone else who went to partake. I'm sorry to say I could not, due to work.

Y'now, it occurred to me after reading Zinj's post that after twelve years or so of following Scn, Inc. activities, that I *expect* that kind of behavior from Scn, inc.
It disgusts me that we're so *used* to it by now that I didn't even notice the assault and battery outlined in Mr. Berry's post as being ignored by deputies.
I would *expect* barbz to be hassled, and maybe even hurt, if she had showed up at that meeting.
Then again, I live near Clearwater.
In the past twelve years, I've seen the homes of individuals raided and their computers confiscated because they dared to speak the truth.
I've seen our freedom to speak compromised by orange lines of paint.
I've seen murder go unpunished.
I've seen organizational policy of harassment deployed in a very real manner on a community's population, strangling free discourse and community identity, not to mention its tax base.
I've seen Mark Bunker, Mike Krotz, Jeff Jacobsen, and now Shawn Lonsdale be assaulted in one way or another -- for the use of *words* and that's just the ones I know about.

The simple answer is that *nobody*, including Narconon, believes in the 'theoretical basis' of the treatment.
Nobody believes it 'removes toxins' Nobody believes it 'removes drugs' Nobody believes it 'removes radiation'.
I've been asking for years now, based on the claims by Narconon itself, and the 'Church' for its parallel 'Purif', why the detritus of 'treatment' is being washed, completely untreated, down the shower drains.
Why hasn't the EPA taken action? Why don't the 'Church' or Narconon care?
Why isn't there any filtering or waste water treatment going on?
Because they all know it's crap.

Did you really have sex with underage boys in NY? Were you labeled a Vexatious litigant by the courts in California? Were you disbarred from practicing law in California by the California bar association? Are you still abusing drugs?

Have you stopped beating your wife, "Frank?" Do you know what suborning perjury means?

And here the Church of Scientology's Office of Special Affairs, operating out of the HGB Building at 6331 Hollywood Boulevard, Los Angeles, acting robotically as brain-washed "ron-droids," begins it's ad hominem attack using their own manufactured, perjured and disproven allegations [for example: google search "Cipriano and Moxon."] Of course, they also violate their IRS section 501 (c) (3) status and 1993 tax settlement agreement.

Readers, the above is a splendid illustration of the loving communications skills practiced by Scientologists, when encountering someone who tells the truth about the cult.
Rev. Norle Enturbulata "Church" of Cartoonism * * " You can write that down in your book in great big letters. The only way you can control anybody is to lie to them." * -- L. Ron Hubbard, "Technique 88" * * "...Never discuss Scientology with the critic. Just discuss his or her crimes, known and unknown. And act completely confident that those crimes exist...." * L. Ron Hubbard, "Critics of Scientology", November 5, 1967 * * "All men shall be my slaves! All women shall succumb to my charms! All mankind shall grovel at my feet and not know why!" - L. Ron Hubbard, "Personal Affirmations"

I do hope you'll feel confident enough to turn your questions into statements - together with any supporting evidence. Otherwise people might just think that you're merely another OSA/CCHR/CoS Newsguy creep.
"What are your crimes?" As if we didn't already know.

As the person who (shamefully) delivered the Saint Hill (real one) purif for many months at my home sauna - for thje "boys" only - I saw many many purifs delivered. Saint Hill didn't have a sauna and I did -
when the purif was first "invented".
Not once did I see any "dirt", "minerals", "toxins" or anything else sweated out on the nice clean white towels I provided. Nor did I see "anything" turn on in the sauna. Not once did I hear anything positive
about the rundown. Yes there were those cases that had heavy drug usage including LSD. No I didn't see any "trips" in the sauna as I was
told to watch out for - as the locked away LSD would re-enter the blood
stream again!
In fact the opposite. In my own case my stomach was burnt by too much vitamin C - ever since then I have had to take medication to ease the burning sensation in my stomach. Drinking an egg cupful of oil? Massive niacine flushes? Bollocks!
I did have someone have an epileptic fit in the sauna which was mindblowing. Can you imagine getting a naked body out of a sauna, writhing, with a damned hot stove inches away? I never saw that person
again, although there was a full recovery a few minutes later. I guess
Tory can tell us about that!!
Purif? I wouldn't give a &*^%$# for it! It is total bollocks and you can tell them I said so!
