Hi Greg,

Not sure if you are going to receive this email or not but I was
reading your story about what happened to your Step son at Stonehawk.
My son had such a bad experience there that he ended up leaving too. I
sent Per a certified letter (which was refused) requesting a refund.
When the "Stonehawk Executive Council" refused my letter, I called
Stonehawk and left a message for Per to call me. He did call me back
but was very belligerent about the issue. I was wondering if you are
suing Stonehawk??? A lawyer friend of mine indicated that I have a
strong case. Was wondering if you knew of anyone that has sued
before??

Jesus Christ! How many times has this happened and no one's ever even
heard about it? When is some healthcare regulatory organization going
to shut down these friggin' scam "rehabs?"

Scientology in general has a policy of never accepting registered mail.
So now we have THREE unsatisfied Stone Hawk customers, and one Newport
beach. Nice... I sense the snowball is gaining momentum and size as it
rolls down the hill. :)

Greg,
It might be interesting to start a class action. Those guys work like
PI attorneys, on contingency. I'll bet there are lots of people out
there who would come out of the woodwork. And the last thing Narconon
wants is to have its records made public.

I'm wondering if it's time for one of those inside undercover
journalist reports, maybe on 60 Minutes or CBS, where the journalist
poses as a parent seeking help for his/her addicted offspring. With
hidden cameras and all that other stuff.

Be afraid Narconon. Be very afraid :)

Ah, yes! And then follow up interviews with Mr. Beha! The longer he
doesn't get his full refund, the more willing he will be to discuss the
matter widely!

section 1964(c) of the RICO Act, allows civil claims to be brought by any
person injured in their business or property by reason of a RICO violation.
Any person who succeeds in establishing a civil RICO claim automatically
receives judgment in the amount of three times their actual damages and
would be awarded their costs and attorneys' fees.

That would be very interesting.

Eldon, would you kindly take a moment to summarize how this might work,
should a class decide to form and go forward against Narconon? Would
they have to file against HQ's?

What's the first step?

Oooooh, you're putting me on the spot here, Beckyboo ;-). Disclaimer:
I'm not an attorney, nor is this legal advice, blablabla.....

However, as I understand in my own limited way, a class action is an
injury suit filed by a bunch of plaintiffs in a US federal court. Two
or three will do for starters. Once it is certified in federal court,
it is a free-for-all and more plaintiffs can be invited to join the
party -- not only in the US but internationally. That's what Melvin
Belli did about the Bhopal chemical plant explosion, starting at the
site of the disaster in India where he pitched a tent and people formed
a queue to sign up.

Narconon International and every other Narconon branch in the world
could be dragged into such a lawsuit, and their records subpoenaed
through discovery. Do you think their records are clean? Hmmm.....

Find a gutsy law firm that potentially wants to make a lot of money
(typically 1/3 of the settlement or award) by investing some time and
money to start the case. It's a PI (personal injury) sort of thing on a
large scale. Think asbestos.

You mean the one who went up against Scientology. What connection does
that have with Narconon other than using the technology of Mr. Hubbard?
I mean, that's just a coincidence, right?

He's a lawyer. He knows Scientology tactics. Might he not be a good
choice to take on Narconon?

CoS^w Narconon would bring all their legal guns (and big bag of dirty
tricks) into a fight like that. It'd probably take a big law firm that can
just toss a few more interns in when CoS^w Narconon raises endless legal red
herrings in hopes of dragging the case out another decade.

CoS is *terrified* of cases like Bonnie Woods, Dennis Elrich, Julie
Christofferson Titchbourne, or Larry Wollersheim that might establish a
precedent for later cases down the line.

Standard plays (mix and match):
* Overwhelm the other side, legally and financially with endless side issues
and procedures.
* Fair Game them with dirty tricks legal and otherwise.
* Drag the case out as long as possible, then settle with a gag clause.
* Appeal! Appeal! Appeal!!!!!
* Make such a dog's dinner out of the case over such a long period of time,
that no one can remember what the case established.
* Ponder shooting them. http://www.lermanet.com/dangarvin/index2.htm
* If all else fails, settle and even apologize--then lie about the result.

A class action suit, with no single "attacker" to take out, would make the
lawyers their natural target. So they'd better have resources and attitude
enough for the task.

Yes, you are right there. Do you think Cof$ might be terrified about
having its front groups exposed as being managed by Scientology
undercover? I know that some of the Narconon people are more or less
good-hearted dupes who don't quite realize how much they are under DM's
thumb. But some surely do. Also, I wonder how much funding they could
come up to defend themselves. Scientology might sacrifice some or all
of them as scapegoats. Remember the GO?

Just speculating here of course. But they do deny an overt connection.

Perhaps you forgot that these parents were ripped off financially by
Narconon Stone Hawk and their children were not given the services they
were promised.

Even Hubbard says that the only reason you'll get problems like this is
failing to deliver what all that the org promiseed or not delivering at
all. You were an exec. You should know that. Are you prejudiced against
parents helping their children who are addicted to drugs? Educate
yourself on these things first - you make stupid comments like that
Barbara if you aren't..

Greg,
This brings up another point. I'm not sure of these kids' ages. Were
they of legal age? Were they considered "competent to make decisions,"
or were they at Stone Hawk under parental consent? I'm asking this
because legally, the Narconon people might have put them under the
guardianship of Motel 6.

Is Motel 6 a subsidiary drug rehab agency or is it a business catering
to adults? Just wondered about this aspect of things.

If someone dumps a minor who has a drug problem at a motel with ten
bucks... well, the motel manager might be called into question. Perhaps
Motel 6 might want to elucidate their policy on this matter. Just
wondered.

It might not be applicable in a strict legal sense if the people dumped
there were of legal age. I dunno. But it does not bode well for the
image of a national hostelry chain to be the dumping ground for
Narconon's rejects anyway, just in terms of PR. "We'll leave the porch
light on fer ya?" Gimme a f**king break.

There is such a thing as an "impaired adult," and just summarily
kicking someone out of a drug rehab program might be seen as putting
them at unacceptable risk. It's despicable.

I suppose so if they aren't made with butter... but I would prefer a

I currently have a fiance there and his parents and I am very upset
not knowing what to do.....he needs help and we've already taken from
their retirement to pay for this and he's been there 6 weeks. Total
depression, badly treated, verbally and mentally abused, bad headaches
and now his kidneys hurt and his sugar levels are up from taking
2500mg of niacin a day!! He had to beg for a week to finally be seen
by a doctor to have blood tests done.....of course he still is forced
to take the niacin plus all the vitamins/drinks they force on him
otherwise he doesn't get to pass. We would love to get involved in a
class action suit and I talk to him twice a day.....any questions I
should ask him??? It's not just about the money....it's about saving
lives and getting help when an addict FINALLY reaches his end and is
begging for it.

But like he said....."whose going to belive me......I'm a junkie to
the world." (He's a 32 year old VERY handsome professional who has
battled addiction for 10 years)

It doesn't matter who would believe him -- on his own word. But a
court would certainly believe that Narconon is junk science, what with
all the evidence already amassed. Is he at Stone Hawk? If so, this
makes three cases there in the past few months. Even if he's not, the
program is the same everywhere.

It's just that, as I understand it, a class action has to be filed
within a particular state, in a federal court. Then it can be extended
nationally and internationally.
