[Reformatted for readability. I have corrected obvious OCR errors, but left errors presumed to be in the original uncorrected.] From: Keith Henson Subject: The case against Henson Date: 28 Sep 2000 00:00:00 GMT Message-ID: <8r04id$qu3$1@nntp9.atl.mindspring.net> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Organization: MindSpring Enterprises Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 User-Agent: tin/pre-1.4-19990517 ("Psychonaut") (UNIX) (SunOS/4.1.4 (sun4m)) Mime-Version: 1.0 Newsgroups: alt.religion.scientology This is the meat of the criminal complaint filed against me. The declarations by Hoden, Richardson and Petty have been posted. The rest is mostly net postings, a lot of them followups where I was not even the author. There is some amazing stuff in here. Assuming what Hoden says is true, then picketing gold base is more even more effective at reaching staff than I thought. What really brought on these charges was staff getting used to me and starting to read the signs and wave back. Being denied (under color of law) the right to peaceful protest is an issue which screams for the ACLU to get involved. I noticed in the news today they were defending NAMLA. But a case where scientology is involved, even indirectly, is proably asking too much of them. If someone want to take out the line numbers, clean up the OCR errors, put in more paragraph breaks for ease of reading, and split it into smaller chunks, be my guest. I happen to have a paying gig at the moment and just can't take more time to make this look better. [Ed note: I have done this.] Keith Henson [This was by Deputy Rowe] DR00201037 Continuation Sheet Page 2 Evidence: 1) Numerous documents printed from the internet and given to me by Gavin Idda, an "internet expert" for the Church of Scientology. 2) One (1) cassette tape of the interview between myself and Keith Henson. Item 1 was attached to the report for further review and investigation by the Detectives at the Hemet station. All other evidence was booked, by me at the Hemet Sheriff's station. Details: On Wednesday, 071900 about 1622 hours, I responded to Golden Bra [sic: Golden Era] Productions at 19626 Hwy. 79, in San Jacinto reference threats being made over the internet. I arrived and spoke with Ken Ho den, General Manager of Golden Era Productions (Church of Scientology). Ken told me that Keith Henson (suspect) has been outside their Church, protesting since May 26 . On July 15th, Ken told me he noticed some threats being made against the Church on the internet newsgroup, alt.Religion.scientology. Ken had his "internet expert", Gavina Idda, explain to me how this newsgroup operates. Gavina told me that this newsgroup site is a site where people talk about their disbelief in the Church of Scientology. Gavina showed me numerous documents that he printed from this internet site, where he believes Keith Henson is making threats against this Church. In the documents, it shows Keith discussing how an ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missiles) could be accurate enough to hit the Church of scientology. Gavina also showed me documents that have pictures of the Church in San Jacinto, with satellite coordinates, so that a missile could be accurately launched at the Church. The documents also show Keith discussing how you would have to watch for weather for more accurate missile shots. An exerpt from another document printed from this site, shows Keith stating that, "killing the organization off entirely is the best way to change the future of Scientology" (This quote was taken from a documtent written by Keith Henson in April, 1997 on the same internet newsgroup). Ken told me he, his students, and his employees, are afraid of Keith, because Keith has also made threats in the past toward the Church of Scientology. Ken showed me a copy of a deposition that Keith was to attend with the Church leader, David Miscavige, in May of 1997. This document states that an employee of Southwest Airlines, overheard threatening conversations between Keith Henson and another person. As a result, the deposition was deferred for, Miscavige's safety, by a San Jose Judge. Another document shows another person on the internet site, saying that G.P.S (global positioning satellite) won't be needed as long as Keith is standing on the hill providing 1K (infared) illumination for the missiles. Another document shows Keith saying that Miscavige (the leader of the Church of Scientology) has to "watch for cruise missiles as well as eagles" As a result of the past contacts that Ken and his Church have had with Keith, Ken told me that they are all afraid of Keith, because of Keith's knowledge of missiles and explosives. Ken said that he, his employees, and students, have had to alter their day to day activities at the Church, as a result of their fear. They are afraid to walk around the Church when Keith is outside protesting, because they fear Keith might be armed with some kind of explosive weapon. Keith was outside protesting when I finished speaking to Ken and Gavina. I approached Keith, detaihed him, and placed him in the backseat of my patrol car. I transported Keith to the Hemet station for further investigation and interview regarding this matter. I conducted a tape recorded interview with Keith at the Hemet station. I read Keith his Miranda rights, and he said he would talk to me about the internet site. Keith stated that he does not like the Church of Scientology. He stated that he sometimes says things on the site to make Miscavige "paranoid". Keith also told me his background with explosives. Keith said he is a pyrotechnics expert and teaches pyrotechnics to eighth and ninth graders. Keith said he has discussed ICBM's on the site, regarding the Church of Scientology, but only meant any comments as a joke. He told me that he did not have any means of actually getting an ICBM. However, he stated again that he likes to say things to make Miscavige "paranoid". Under Penal Code 11418.5 (a), a threat to use weapons of mass destruction, with or without the intent or ability to carry out that threat, is a felony or a misdemeanor. Ken presented this Penal Code to me and stated that he feels it applies to him and the members of his Church, based on the discussion of ICBM's and knowledge of Keith's knowledge of explosives. Ken refused to sign a citizen's arrest form to have Keith arrested. I am unable to determine the validity of the internet documents provided to me by Ken and Gavina. As a result this report will be forwarded to the Detectives at the Hemet Sheriff's station for further review and investigation. Case Status: Opn CD-2 [by P. Carroll] Details: On 07-20-00, I was directed by Investigator Greer to view an Internet Newsgroup identified as "alt.religion.scientology." Greer asked me to view any recent postings (messages) on the news group that were authored by a subject named "Keith Henson." I located several messages on the newsgroup that were authored by a "Keith Henson. I was able to view messages posted by Keith Henson as far back as mid July, 2000 on that specific newsgroup. None of the messages that I viewed contained any threats of mass destruction to any persons or organizations by Keith Henson. I conducted a search for messages of the "alt.religion.scientology" newsgroup at the Internet site, "www.deia.com." I conducted a search for the name "Keith Henson" using the "recent and standard" search parameters. There were approximately 729 messages that were found using the name "Keith Henson." The response included "Keith Henson" as an author of the messages or the name "Keith Henson" mentioned in the text of the message. I also conducted a search using the "all and standard" search parameters. There were approximately 16000 responses that were found using the name "Keith Henson." The response included "Keith Henson" as an author of the messages or the name "Keith Henson" mentioned in the text of the message. The response also indicated messages were authored by Keith Henson in several different newsgroups such as "alt.religion.scientology", alt.engr.explosives" and "alt.clearing.technology." No further information was obtained. Refer to investigations for follow-up. Status: Opn / CD-2 Attachments: 1. Declaration from Frank Petty. 2. Declaration from Edwin G. Richardson. 3. Declaration from Ken Hoden. 4. Copy of an e-mail from Fredric L. Rice. 5. Copy of an excerpt from a publication by Ed Regis mentioning Henson. 6. Thirteen e-mails from Keith Henson. Details: On Saturday, 072200, about 2122 hours I was assigned a follow-up investigation at 19625 Hwy 79, Golden Era Productions. Upon arrival I met with the reporting party, Ken Hoden, who advised me he had found and printed numerous e-mails reportedly sent from Keith Henson. The e-mails mention how Henson has been watching the workers of Golden Era Productions and how they have been reacting to him when they see him arrive and loiter around the area. The e-mails also mention how the workers have changed their procedures during the day starting from the time when the buses pick the workers up at their apartments to when they are dropped off at the end of the day. The e-mails indicate that Henson has been watching and taking notes of the workers procedures throughout the day. Another attachment is a declaration from Frank Petty describing how he saw Henson and a man named Rice standing in front of Golden Era taking coordinates from a GPS. Another attachment is from Edwin G. Richardson who says he is a private investigator and has been investigating Henson. Richardson gives a summary of what he knows about Henson's past. The last declaration is provided by Ken Hoden, the Golden Era General Manager. Hoden describes how his facility and workers have had to change their day procedures out of fear from Henson's acts. Status: Opn DM EVIDENCE: Item: Quantity: Description: Video cassette tape of Henson and other subjects at the front gate to the compound. Placed into evidence at the Hemet Sheriff's station RIVERSIDE SHERIFF Cassette tape of interview with Keith Henson at the Hemet Sheriff' Station Placed into evidence at the Hemet Sheriff's Station. RIVERSIDE SHERIFF DETECTIVE Tony Creer #1146 HEMET STATION ADDITIONAL BLOCK OUT: 0382236 0) Hoden, Kenneth 19625 Hwy 79 San Jacinto, Ca Golden Era Studios 0) Camburn, Ida 1270 Vista Grande Hemet, Ca 652-5956 0) Anthony,Ruth 934 San Gorgonjo Way Hemet, CA 925-9561 0) Van Camp, Michael 9505.Lyon Hemet, CA Sierra Dawn Mobile Home Park 925-6502 DETAILS: On 07/17/00, I received the above video tape from Hoden. Hoden advised that the tape was of Henson and a subject by the last name of Rice. They are in front of the main gate taking GPS readings (Global Positioning Satellite). I reviewed that tape and recognized one of the subjects as Henson The otber subject was holding an object in his hand. He was holding the object above his head towards the sky. On 07/31/00, I met with Kevin Ruddy and Bernie Skiles from the Riverside County District Attorney's Office. It was decided that another interview with Henson was needed. On 08/02/00, I contacted Henson in front of Golden Era Studios. I asked Henson if he would come to the Hemet Sheriff's Station for another interview in regards to this case. Henson agreed, and an appointment was set for 1300 hours on 08/03/00. On 08/03/00, Henson came to the Hemet Station for an interview. Henson first thought that he was here to talk about an unrelated death case I am work at the church. I advised him it had to do with the case that he was arrested on. I advised Henson that the interview was voluntary, he was not under arrest, and I was not going to arrest him, and he was free to leave at any time. Henson said he understood and agreed to the interview. Henson asked if I wanted to tape record the interview Henson refers to the things that the church does to their people is like drug addiction and referred to Patti Hurst [sic] and brain washing. Henson said that in 01/95, the church removed a web site from the Internet that talked about the church. The news group site was alt.religion.scientology and people started posting some of scientology's internal secrets. Scientology destroyed the news group and the current postings on the site all over the world. Henson said he did not know anything about Scientology prior to them destroying the news web site. When the site was destroyed it post all over the world that Scientology did it. One of the groups that reported it was a free speech group. Henson said the destroyed news group was very small site when it was destroyed. Henson said a subject by the name of Dennis Erlich was sued for copyright violations, which Henson admitted to knowing. Another subject named Grady Ward, who got involved, was also sued for posting items on the net. Henson said he wrote to Ward on the Internet commenting about free speech and also posted, quoting something called NOTS 34. He also said this NOTS 34 was a criminal instruction manual about the illegal practice of medicine. Henson said Scientology sued him in 1998 for copyright violation. Henson said he lost the suit and had to file bankruptcy. He first picked the church in 1995 as a non-violent protest against Scientology. He said picketing has been very effective because numerous people have either left the church or not entered due to his picketing. Henson said the church hates him because of the people that left as a result of his picketing. It cost the church a lot of money invested on the people that have left. He also said he started postings [sic] about Scientology on the Internet in 1995. I asked Henson about the explosive web site that his name appears on a lot. Henson said he was a rare poster in that site. He will only posts [sic] once every couple weeks, and he is known as "voice of caution". He did explosives as a career and he worked for a geophysics company and use to fire dynamite for them all the time. He did it in the desert of Arizona. He has knowledge of red phosphorus. When asked if he could build an atomic bomb. He said no, but anyone could get the instructions on how to build one on the Internet. He denies having access to an ICBM missile He denied ever being arrested in the state of Arizona. He had no reputation of ever using explosives of any kind to damage people or property. In 1972 there were a group of people called the ECO Raiders, who were combating urban sprawl by burning down houses on the out-skirts of Tucson. The police thought that Henson was involved because he was known for running parties way out in the desert to fire off explosives. He said what the people were doing was pouring gasoline on the studs of the houses and burning them. The police followed him around for a short time until the suspects were caught. He did not know the suspect or anyone who did know the suspects. He said that he was not aware of the police looking at him until 1983 or 1984, when a reporter brought it to his attention. He has never seen any official records on the matter. There was no further action taken against him. I told Henson I wanted to go over some of the Internet postings to make sure they were his writings and not tampered with. He said he could not tell if the message was tampered with, but could tell if something was "wildly" out. Henson said he came to San Jacinto because he heard about the Ashley Shanner death. He had picketed this location several years ago, right after the lawsuit. He said the church sued him then and they lost. He said they used this to try to stop him from picketing there. He said it is like roaches, when he arrives at Golden Era they run away and hide. They have stopped that by now because they were not getting any work done when he shows up to picket. When asked why he feels they run and hide when he shows up. Henson said "because they think I'm a space alien". When asked if he thinks they are afraid he is going to blow them up, Henson said " I doubt it, I actually doubt it if they were really were afraid I was going to blow them up, they wouldn't be worried when I was there". When asked if he had any intention of physically harming them Henson said "no". Henson said "look, I want the management on Scientology, not one stone left upon another on salt of fields [sic]. That's a political goal political legal kinda goal". He does it in several different ways; Henson has sued the IRS in an attempt to get the church's tax-exempt status changed. Henson said that he has these print out on his machine and could check them. I asked if the sign (*) on the print out means the church. Henson said this symbol identifies David Miscavige, the current 30 leader of the church. Henson said that at one point he and Grady Ward were in a legal process to depose Miscavige. This was the first time he picketed them because there was a delay of a day in 32 their part of the deposition because Miscavige reported that he, Henson, had made threats to blow them up at an airline counter. Henson said that the personnel at Golden Era don't stop working and run in just when he comes out, but also with other people that picket. One weekend a subject named Bruce Pettycrew came out a weekend after him, and Petteycrew reported that workers left in such a hurry when they saw him, they left a wheelbarrow full of cement to dry in the wheelbarrow. He pointed out that the whole place shut down, so it's not just him. I asked if he thought personnel from the church read the posting on the web site. He said they read it every day. He said that he knows that there is a woman assigned to read it every day. Henson said that in the last month, 900 people have been posting on this news group. I pointed out to Henson that he told the initial responding deputy, that his main goal was to make Miscavige paranoid. He said that some of what he is doing is to do that, but it was also psychological warfare against them". "I'm no where near the only person who's doing that sort of thing". I asked if it was his goal to be disruptive to them. Henson said "oh absolutely". Henson said that he would have almost no affect on these people if they would just ignore him. I asked Henson how he knew there was a woman that read the posting on the internet. He said that it came out in one of the court hearings. He again pointed out that he is by no means the only person involved in all of this. I asked if the church was picketing his house and his wife's business in Palo Alto. He confirmed that they have picketed his house and wife's business numerous times. Henson looked at some of the Internet print outs. I explained that the highlighted areas are areas that I thought the church might see as a threat. He did not see anything that he did not write. I asked if he felt that any of this was a direct threat towards them. Henson asked "physical threat or physiological [sic: from context later on obviously the word meant was "psychological"] threat". I mentioned the part about the GPS and bombings David Rice using the GPS to get the coordinates. Henson said "Physiological [psychological] threat". Physiological [psychological] weaponry only". "I do not have a cruise missile". He said that the print outs are just a reporting of what happens when he is picketing. I asked if he does it to make them paranoid. Henson said, "well that's one of the effects of it. But, the actual thing of it is its' it's first amendment it's a first amendment protest kinda thing". "We we do the best we can to make them paranoid but that's only because their so easy to make paranoid". I read the following from an internet print out from Henson, "You have a point. The only way I can get clear of this scientology mess is to "destroy them Utterly". Henson said that was a quote from L. Ron Hubberd [sic]. As to what to do to enemies of scientology. The print out dated July 04, 2000, My only option to get back in the work force is to destroy scientology root and branch. Henson showed me a computer disk with printing . He developed a machine that printed on the disks. He had a contract with a company to make the disks. Because Scientologist contacted the company and harassed the employees about him, they cancelled his contract. He said the company will refer him, but they warn the other company about the church. Henson said that every time he starts with a company someone from Scientology contacts that company. I asked Henson who ShyDavid was and he confirmed that it was David Rice. I asked if it was a GPS (Global Positioning Satellite) device that Rice had. He said yes at first, but then went on to say that Rice told him that is what it was. He said that he didn't get any number off of it. He said that he did not post the photograph of the front gate. I read him a posting from Fred Rice [illegible] even if not, with Keith Henson up on the hill Providing on-target IR illumination, GPS won't even be needed. } :-} Henson said that the sign at the end of this sentence is a humor thing meaning the previous sentence is a joke. Another dated July II 2000, by Patrick Volk talking about 300 kilotons and SPF 800 sun block with :) at the end which is also a sign for humor or a joke. Henson said all of these are intended to be a joke. He said that he is just responding to another person's statement on the internet. He said that he is just responding and correcting a yardage posted by Volk. He said that he had no idea that they would take it as anything but a joke. Henson said that Volk is a horrible joker. He said that Volk has played jokes on the Internet with Scientology in the past. I showed Henson another posting that read, "I'd trust her with the launch codes for the ICBM aimed at gold base. Keith Henson (now watch me get arrested again)". Henson said this was a joke. When asked who the she was in the message he said that her name is Tory. Tory is a woman who was an "OT7" which is a very high position in the church. He said about a week before this posting there was a lot a talk about not trusting Tory, who just got out of the church. They said she was probably a member of their OSA, "Department of Dirty tricks group". He said that of course he trust her because there "aint no such animal". He said that this was another joke posting but feels that Tory is truly out of the church. I showed Henson the photograph of him and Rice with the GPS. [?] confirmed that David Rice told him it was a GPS, he said that David told him it was but he did not know that it actually was. I told him about the Declarations by the Private investigators for the church said they heard him and Rice talking missiles and coordinates. He said that it was silly but if I wanted to go after someone I should go after David Rice, he had the GPS. He said that it was Rice's idea not his. He also confirmed that Rice might have been the one talking about the missiles because he is a joker. Again I showed Henson a print out to which he responded to someone else commenting about modern weapons. Another posting said "Oh great. Now (*) has to watch for eagles as well as cruise missiles". Henson said this is humor. The writer is a falconer and talks previously about hunting. He said he made the above reply as a joke. Henson said that a cruise missile is not a weapon of mass destruction. I showed Henson the news article I received about a person who shot scientologist in Oregon. Henson said that the suspect in this case was an ex-scientologist and the only person that goes bonkers are former scientologist [sic]. Henson said that he could not think of one case where a non-scientologist was violent towards them. Henson said that he has no knowledge of Dexter. I showed him the posting of a graphic page by Dexter and he said that he did not know of Dexter. He heard that the church did this printing to give to me. Henson said that was "way over the top" he did not post it. I asked about the death threats from Dexter that came on the same day he picketed the Golden Era. He denied knowing Dexter, but offered to find out who he was. Henson pointed out that was only three dates out of 30 that he picketed. I showed him a photocopy of the book titled "Great Mambo Chicken & The Transhuman Condition". Henson said that he did not write the book. He admitted that it was him and his wife they talk about. He said that they did have "Fire festivals" in the Arizona desert back in the early 70s. He does know the writer of the book. He tried to correct the book on some factual parts that the author had wrong. He looked it over while in draft. He said that the book was mostly true. It was his business and hobby at the time it was written. Again, he said that he never damaged any property when they were in the desert. I located the declaration from Frank Petty. Henson denied ever saying that he was a computer scientist or ever worked on guidance systems. Henson said that he doesn't even know who Petty is. I read him Richardson's statement about over hearing them talking about launching missiles. Henson said," I don't think so and not in any way which could be anything but a joke". Henson said it is a political thing it's like freedom marchers. Henson gave me the most recent postings he had done on the Internet. During the entire interview, Henson contended that he never made any physical threat, only psychological threats. He said that he does not have the means to build a weapon of mass destruction or possess one. On 08/07/00, 1 contacted Palo Alto Police Department in regards to Henson's statement about the church picketing his residence. I confirmed that it is a continual problem between Henson and the church. They both picket each other within their jurisdiction. On 08/7/00, I received the attached court documents and police reports from Edwin Richardson, Private Investigator from the church. Senior Investigator Skiles form the Riverside County District Attorney's Office requested the documents from Richardson. On 08/08100, I contacted Hoden at Golden Era Studios. I confirmed with Hoden that they have had to alter bus schedules and work schedules due to the presence of Henson. I asked Hoden to explain their fear of Henson. He said, they are afraid that he might lob something over the fence or have someone else do it. Henson always carries a sack when he is picketing the church, and might leave something that might explode after he leaves. Hoden said that is why they have an employee of the church follow Henson the entire time he is at the church. They have instructed these employees to check any object left by Henson. I asked what he meant by "something" left by Henson. They fear that he might leave a bomb or launch a missile at the church. They are basing this on Henson's past experience with explosives Hoden said they received information that around 1990, Henson [fil?]ed a patent in Washington DC on how to launch a missile or bomb from an airplane. Hoden said they obtained this information off the Internet and will supply me with a copy of the application, refer to attached copy of the application. On 08/08/00, I contacted Henson at 1270 Vista Grande, Hemet, the home of Ida Camburn. I asked Henson if he had ever filed an application for a patent. Henson said that he has filed numerous patent applications. I showed him the application supplied by Hoden. He said it was one of his patents. This was an idea he had to assist in launching a satellite or space station into outer space to be placed into orbit. I asked if it was intended for any other delivery system. He said it was only for launching items into orbit. I asked why there was mention of missiles in some of the writings. He said that verbiage was placed there by his patent attorney. It had to be placed in to get the request through the patent process. I asked what was meant by "payload", again he said it was a satellite or other object to orbit the earth. Camburn, who also states she is shares the anti-scientology beliefs, said that people from the church visited numerous neighbors within her park, Sierra Dawn Mobile Home Park. Cambum identified one of the church personnel as Muriel, the head of public relations for Golden Era. I have had contact with Muriel in the past and her last name is Dufresne. Camburn said she was contacted by several neighbors who told her they were contacted by Muriel. Muriel told them that Henson was staying with her and a danger to the community. Muriel said that Henson was a child molester, killer and bomber. She also said Muriel also went to the office of the park and told them they needed to make her have Henson leave. This occurred over the weekend of the 29th of July. Camburn said that she heard that Muriel was at the office on 07131/00, so she went to the office and took a photograph of Muriel while in the office. Camburn identified Ruth Anthony as one of her neighbors contacted by Muriel. I contacted Anthony at her residence. She confirmed that two females from Golden Era Studios contacted her on 07/29/00. One of the females identified herself as the head of Public Relations at Golden Era. They told her that a dangerous subject was staying with Ida. Anthony said that she is aware of Ida's situation with the church. She told the females that she was not interested, but they were very persistent. She said that they tried to get her to open her door so they could give her some pamphlets about this dangerous person. Anthony took the pamphlet so she could give it to Ida. There was a photograph of the man they were talking about and some type of court paperwork about him. They told Anthony they were going door to door to warn people about this very dangerous man. Anthony said that she told them not to contact people in the park as they were elderly people and this sort of thing could upset some of them and that some of them are not very healthy. Anthony said that she saw the females go to other residences even after she asked them not to. She also received several calls from neighbors about the visits. I talked with Van Camp, the Sierra Dawn Mobile Home Park manager. He said that Muriel attempted to contact him 07/31/00, but he was not in the office. Muriel returned on 08/01/00; He said that Muriel gave him the packet on Henson and attempted to have park management restrict Henson from the park because he was so dangerous. Muriel told him that prior to seeing him Ida was outside the office with a camera taking her, Muriel's picture. He said that Ida contacted him the next day, concerned they were going to kick her out of the park because of the visit from Muriel. Van Camp said that he heard that residents of the park had been contacted by Muriel. Most of them were afraid because of the private investigators who sit in cars for hours at a time and watch Ida's house. Van Camp said that he has received a call from Muriel every day since she was in his office. He said that she in asking what is being done about Henson. In reviewing all of the Internet postings I did not see any direct threat of violence towards the church or any personnel of the church. It does appear that Henson is responding to statements on the explosive web site and does not directly refer to the church. This appears to be an on going battle between Henson and other anti-scientology people. This case will be submitted to the District Attorney's Office for review. STATUS: EXC DETECTIVE Tony Greer #1146 HEMET STATION [This is from scn trying to make a conection between my pickets and "death threats" by "dexter." There are internal reasons to think "dexter" works for scientology.] KEITH HENSON ORGANIZED PICKETS & DEATH THREATS Since Keith Henson has been picketing at Golden Era Productions death threats have escalated against the Church. Specifically there is an individual by the name of "Dexter" who has been sending death threats by e-mail to the Church and creating web sites containing death threats and disgusting language Three specific instances have been found of Dexter sending death threats to the Church and, more recently, creating a web site where Dexter is advertising to bomb the Church and our Head Quarters (Golden Era Productions is the international dissemination center of the Scientology religion and is also known as 21 June 2000 Keith Henson pickets Golden Era Productions.

On the above date, at approx. 0900 hours, I made an unannounced visit to Golden Era Studios and contacted Hoden, the location manager. I asked Hoden the number of personnel at this location. Hoden said that there were approx. 735 workers. I advised Hoden that I needed to interview five of these workers about the threat from Henson. Hoden said that they have not notified all of the personnel because they did not want to cause mass fear in the workers. Hoden said they have a paging system that notifies about 100 of their personnel that Henson is present. Hoden said that these 100 employees have been briefed about Henson. Hoden said that when the page goes out there are several personnel that will go to the two tunnels, which runs under Hwy 79 from one side of the compound to the other. Personnel are also told to stay away from Hwy 79 and fence next to Hwy 74 when Henson is present. All five subjects interviewed stated that they received information about Henson from Ken Hoden. They are all part of the paging activation system used when Henson is protesting at the Golden Era location. All have seen Internet posting by Henson and know of Henson's dealings with explosives. All fear that Henson is capable of carrying out his threat to blow up the church and all fear that he might blow up Golden Era Studios. They fear he might "lob" some sort of grenade or incendiary device over the fence into the compound. Several weeks ago I contacted Hoden, and advised that 1 would need to interview some of the staff about this incident. Wagoner, Gilchrist, Reid and Dufresne were contacted by Hoden and told of possible pending interview with detectives. All of the people interviewed stated that they were not told what to say, just that there would be an interview concerning Henson.

Your Declarant discovered Internet posting about the Church of Scientology that where posted on the Internet hy Henson. Some of the postings go as far back as 1995, and others are current. Some of the current postings talk about GPS (Global Positioning Satellite). There was a current photograph of Henson and another male subject taking a GPS reading in front of Golden Era Productions, a company of the Church of Scientology, located on Gilman Springs road in San Jacinto. There were other current and old postings talking about ICBM missiles, Cruise Missiles and others. There were postings from Henson talking about modern weapons being accurate within a few yards and many more. Henson also communicates on another Internet WEB site that talks about explosives. On 08/03/00, Your Declarant conducted an out of custody interview Henson. Your Declarant showed Henson numerous Internet writings from the anti-scientology Internet WEB sites. Henson admitted to Your Declarant that he posted these writings on the Internet. Henson told Your Declarant that he posted these to make David Miscavige, the head of the church paranoid. Henson told Your Declarant that these posting are "psychological warfare against them", meaning the church. Henson told Your Declarant that this was "psychological threat, psychological weaponry only". Henson denied having any weapon of mass destruction. Henson told Your Declarant that he has been protesting the Church of Scientology since 1995, when the church had an Internet WEB site deleted from the Internet. Later, Henson was sued by the church for copyright violation, forcing him to file bankruptcy. Henson told Your Declarant that was involved with pyrotechnics and explosives as a business and hobby in the early 1970's while living in Arizona. Henson told Your Declarant that he does responds to questions and comments on the explosive WEB site. On 08/16/00, Your Declarant conducted interviews with five member of the Church of Scientology, who are assigned to the Golden Era Productions company. All five told Your Declarant that they have been told about Henson and are afraid that he will carry out his threats to blow up the church or Golden Era Productions. All five told Your Declarant that they have had to adjust bus schedules and work schedules due to the fear Henson will "lob a grenade or incendiary device" over the fence into the compound. They told Your Declarant that there are approx. 100 employees at Golden Era who receive a page when Henson is at the property. Those paged are to keep the rest of the employees away from the road in from of Golden Era and the two tunnels that go under Hwy 79 for fear Henson might blow them up. Your Declarant feels that the elements of the above section have been met due to the fear of the victims and the fact that they have had to alter the business due to that fear.
