June 20: Henson pickets Gold (post dated June 21) "they seem to be taking
people from one side of the road to the other in vans, to avoid seeing me and
the entire plaza and walkway under the road is almost unused. I saw a total of three using it all day, and
I bet they got in trouble." My home
and my wife's place of business are picketed.

David") posts:
> Where exactly are you, when will you be there? I
have some time free
> so perhaps I can join you in educating folks.
June 23: Henson
pickets Gold, "A
big change today from yesterday.
Something like one in six of them are now looking frankly [openly] at my
sign. The side I show to them is either
the "Doubting is not a crime" and the LMT phone, or Arnie's NO OT's,
or "Are you implanted with dead space aliens?" They still don't wave,
but that would be too much considering all the video cameras."
June 24: Henson, David Rice, Fred Rice and Fred's
family picket Gold, Henson returns to Palo Alto. There are 3-6 scientology picketers at
Henson's house all day.
June 25: A picketer collapses at Henson's house. Henson

vault. Ken Hoden invites Shy David and
Barbara Warr to breakfast to get them out of the area. (from a posting of June
26).
[There is much
Internet discussion about this event over the next few days]
June 29: Henson pickets Gold base (late). "I saw one person walking in
the plaza area. I waved and the person
looked at me. I had the paper for my new
sign with me rolled up. It reads:
Cult Victims:
Stacey Myer
Ashlee Shaner
Lisa McPherson
(Henson had one he
posted Saturday, which included Roxanne Friend in the third place, but the
scientology added a new victim Sunday . . .)
June 30: (Friday) Henson
pickets Gold base. "Though they are a considerable minority, more
people are frankly [openly]looking at my signs."
July 1: Henson pickets Gold base, makes reports on
Ashlee Shaner based on Highway Patrol report. "They [CHP] recommend manslaughter
charges be brought against the front loader driver."
July 2: Henson pickets, Edwin Richardson and Frank
Petty run Henson into the road. Henson posts, "I profited from Bob's experience. They threatened me, got in my face and
started bull baiting me (child molester etc. per parishoners.org) What they
were after was to bash themselves on my sign or get me to bash them and fall
down like Howd. I wasn't having any of
it, so I jumped into the roadway. They
spent the next ten minutes trying to bull bait as they chased me back and forth
in the roadway while I flagged down about 20 cars and asked them to call the
cops. It if was not so rushed, it would
have been funny like the three stooges.
Every time I would talk to someone in a car, they would quit bothering
me so they could tell the driver I was a mad bomber or child molester or
both. As if this kind of DA [dead
agent-character attacks] would keep them from calling the cops!"
July 3: Henson pickets Gold
base. URLs of the photos of the previous
day are posted (thug1-thug11) ". . .all four [buses] went by my
picket signs within a ten minute period close to 7 am.
July 3(cont'd): The
buses make another run after this. I
followed one of them over to the apartments on Kirby and found one at the
Fruitvale Apartment as well. The first
one tried to shake me off, hard to do in a bus, and stopped for a while at a
gas station to call. They sure are paranoid. The Fruitvale apartments have a security guy
playing hide and seek in the bushes with a radio. I offered him an OT3/Xenu flyer. It was somewhat like offering garlic to a
vampire, but I could tell there was a certain degree of fascination--because otherwise
he would never find out what OT3 was all about.
Ah well, there are several Xenu flyers inside Gold base, perhaps he will
see one.
July 4: Henson posts,"Co$
is frozen in the pre Internet era. They
haven't the slightest idea of how to cope in the modern world. They certain *try* to destroy me, but the
effect backfires. Their [sic] picketing
my wife's place of work and my house only serves to inform people that
scientology is a cult of vindictive nuts and has the side effect of causing a
lot of social support and donations to flow my way."
. . .
Ah, yes, scientology is doing their best to drag out
the bankruptcy.
They cost my consulting clients so much money for
depositions and lawyers that I have a hard time getting work. Your PIs scared off the last people who
wanted my services. My only option to
get back in the work force is to destroy scientology root and branch. Scientology has been *most* helpful in this
enterprise recently, though I certainly wish they would quit being the cause of
young women dying."
. . .
"They have made it impossible for me to do anything
else. I may be here till the end."
Henson pickets
starting at noon, then posts, "On the way out, I saw a Highway
Patrol officer with a stopped car. So I turned around, stopped, parked and
talked to Officer Mushaney. Officer Mushaney knew *exactly* who I was because
the clams had delivered a tape of me in the middle of the road for the officers
to watch and as a result cite me for jaywalking. The officers who looked at the tape concluded
I was trying to get away from Edwin Richardson and the other thug (who does not
seem to be Brian Reichenberg). So, with
a comment or two about this being a fine day to celebrated [sic] the First
Amendment, and a comment of approval for having a cell phone, I was on my way
over to Gold base.
Parked at the west end next to where Ashlee was
killed, got out my sign and started walking to the east. Sure enough, here comes Edwin and thug
2. So I got on 911 and reported as they
were walking down the road to me."
. . .
Thug 2 crossed over behind me and Edwin got in front. He stopped, forcing me to either go in to the
street or further onto scn property, while thug 2 was talking into a radio or
cell phone about how I had
July 4 (Cont’d): stepped
on precious scn property. But with it
obvious I was talking to 911, they kept back about 6 feet. We got up a little beyond the suppressive
parrot's location on the east side of the main gate when along comes Officer
Mushaney. Mushaney got out and told
Edwin and thug 2 to stay where they were till the Sheriff got there. I asked and was free to continue the picket,
which I did, well beyond the east underpass and started back. As I crested the hill and could see Officer
Mushaney's car, another officer drove up who I think was Officer Alford. Shortly after that Deputy Craig arrived. As I went by on the south side of the road, I
noticed Ken Hoden was out there. I
continued down the south side to my car, crossed, and went back to the east on
the north side of the road.
About that time, Officer Luebs (who I have mentioned
before) came along. Not wishing to intrude on this conference beside the road,
I crossed back to the south west of the main gate. One of the officers yelled that they wanted
to talk so I stopped and went back to where they had crossed the road. We had a friendly conversation about the
limits the thugs were under (they have to stay well out of reach and are not to
talk) and being careful on the roadway.
The officers highly approved of the use of a cell phone instead of jumping
out in the road and stopping cars to ask them to call for help.
They allowed as how they were kind of busy with
patroling I10, six miles to the north, but that protecting constitutional
rights was important enough that they did not mind having this kind of chat
with the scientologists whenever it was warranted. (Police in the US,
especially elite ones like the CHP, tend to be highly patriotic.) Ken Hoden
came by and warned me to stay off private property, but he knows that I have
the right to walk on their property if required for safety.
Incidentally, except for the west underpass, they seem
to have given up trying to keep Gold base staff inside. Many of them were out there looking at the
spectacle of 4 police cars talking to the thugs and Ken
Hoden."
July 5: Henson, Shy David and Barb picket and Henson posts, ". . . got
there about 10:30. I will let them post
on this phase which ran to after 12:30 and a follow up in the afternoon about 4
pm. I went back and gave them another hour
and a half starting about 6 pm."
. . .
"It was a long day, I will let Barb and David
fill in. Only one addition, there were
*three* ground squirrels run over in the road near (*)'s house today. I got photos, but am not sure that road kill
is worth posting. But for sure the road
is a lot harder on ground squirrels than transformers."

Ida had not heard from these disconnected family
members for some years, so it was quite pleasing to get email from them even if
it looked like OAS was dictating over their shoulder.
Note to family with disconnected members in
scientology: you want to hear from
them? Come picket with me.”

The very worst offenders I know of was the US

size of the bit used to drill out the locks on the portable magazines where
they got the boosters they used.

"Edwin Richardson and thug 2 were taking turns in some half assed bull

I need to find some more cardboard for the Stacey

July 12: Henson pickets and posts,
"So this morning (7 am) I did, and when
Edwin Richardson and thug 2 were sent out, I called and sure enough a while
later no fewer than three Sheriff deputies showed up, all at once. I was on the west going leg almost in front

I got the Deputies names, Rahn, Pauling and
Kurycowicz"
July 13: Henson pickets. He is deposed in San Jose in
the afternoon and reports, "I am going to get this deposition
and post the choice parts.
The Xenu flyers in the cult compound got high
billing. Also every single posting had
the Xenu's redacted. Yea Ghods fellows, it
ain't a secret any more."
July 15: Henson pickets in both San Jose and Palo Alto
then posts, "PS to the Los Gatos org. The kid in the red shirt needs to be more
careful. Cars coming out of the driveway
to the north often don't stop till they are out in the street and some don't
stop at all. I saw the kid go in front
of a car and the car hit the back wheel of his bike. It didn't quite knock the bike over and the
kid kept riding to the north."
July 16: Palo Alto assigns an officer to the scientology
pickets at Henson's home and the entire
neighborhood situation there including the PIs at Henson's home. Henson posts,
"If this wasn't enough excitement, a neighbor left
something on the July 16
(Cont'd): stove which caught fire. Arel (my wife) heard a fire alarm shrieking
as I was cooking dinner, so I turned off *my* stove and went looking. The neighbors were gone when I looked in and
saw the place filling up with smoke. So
I broke out a glass pane, got in, turned off the stove and smothered the fire. Arel had called 911, so when the neighbors
came home about 20 minutes later, it was to fire trucks blocking both
streets. No serious damage--though I
might have just a touch of smoke inhalation."
Henson also posted
Gilliland story fragment. "There his asthma attacks started again. It was
laid in that this was his 'case' and he was forbidden to use his inhaler, which
modified or aborted the attacks, or even to have it around.

There are so many of these cases that it boggles the
mind. Scientology is really dangerous to
those with problems like this."
July 19:Henson pickets Gold base and posts,
"I have become so used to the west underpass not being used that I was not
even looking at the stairs which go up the hill to the north of the road as I
walked by. An older, grey haired woman
called out to me. And when I looked that
direction she said I should *not* be there.
It *was* kind of hot by that time, but I don't think she was concerned
about my health. She just insisted over and over like a broken record that I
should not be there and then went stomping up the stairs.
The OSHA people don't want to hear about chain
lockers, so I guess they would not be interested in a pattern of leaving covers
off either. I have seen four or five
examples of lids being left off at Gold base.
This morning I put two of them (right on the road) back on.
Report, the woman who died in the transformer vault is
identified as
Stacy Moxon Meyer, daughter of Kendrick Moxon.
During the evening
pickett Henson arrested by Rowe, unarrested after Hoden refuses to sign the
incident report and Henson is abandoned 30 miles away from his medications at
an emergency room.
July 20: Sheriff's incident report by P.O. Rowe (re
7/19/00 incident). Hoden alleges that
Henson makes a, "Threat to use weapons of mass destruction." [Dates
of Internet posting (1997) and pickets (2000)].
Henson pickets and
posts, "I can tell when I am way to the east of the plaza (near the main
gate) that there are lots of people crossing the plaza and going into the
underpass. But when I get there, very
few
July 20 (Cont’d):
people can be seen on either side of the road.
I suspect they are huddling in the underpass till they get the all clear
signal that I have moved on. OTs,

Henson later posts
re Tory, "Skip has a point, remember the flip flops of Kim
Bakker [sic]. Be supportive and don't
expect too much. Getting out of the cult
mind set takes time.
Keith Henson”
PS, my very best wishes to all concerned."
Henson later posts,
"There is no question that Kendrick Moxon holds the
heart of the cult in his hands. One
squeeze and the whole thing goes down.
And he need not even sue, just turning state's evidence would more than
do the trick.

You speak for me as well, even though Mr. Moxon has
gone to great lengths [sic] to make my life difficult, I feel for him. He can call me at any time for a sympathetic
ear if he wants."
July 21: Sheriff's Incident Reports by P.O. Greer and
P.O. Moquin.
Hoden alleges that
Henson made a threat to, "use weapons of mass destruction."
Greer concludes,
"There does not appear to be any criminal intent or direct threat in this
case."
Moquin reports,
"None of the messages that I reviewed contained any threats of mass
destruction to any persons or organizations by Keith Henson."
Henson pickets for a
half hour. He encounters a PI in Hemet and at University of Redlands where his
daughter will attend college in the fall.
Edwin Richardson
(private investigator for scientology) signs declaration.
July 22: Hoden signs declaration that Gold has been in
fear of Henson's "missile attack for more than a month."
Sheriff's Incident
Reports by P.O. Carroll, "Threat By Electronic Means." He obtains
declarations by Hoden, Richardson, Petty (unsigned), and e-mails from Henson,
Rice and Regis.
Henson does not
picket and posts, "About 11 pm I thought of going out and taking a
flash photo of the parked PI car, but decide against it since making fools of
PIs is not the main point of the exercise."
July 23: Scientology PI, Frank Petty, signs a
declaration. He is within 5-10feet of Henson, "to prevent harm" It
differs from the unsigned Petty declaration attatched to Greer's July 22
Incident Report.
Henson posts, "Brent
Stone and I got out there about 7:30.
All four of the buses were out picking up staff who had to work on
Sunday. Right away we saw Richardson and

Ed is absolutely right on this. The cult is coming unglued inside and we have

all, the ones who are making it fall apart (with generous help from LRH, (*),

Reposted from Shy David. "Keith Henson must be contagious: I
somehow caught one of his Private Investigator / clam stalker viruses. And from
what little I could glimpse of him, a more disreputable, decrepit looking louse
one would be hard pressed to find in even the most seedy of seaport
towns."
July 25: Henson
posts, "But when
they break out of ron-bot mode, we should welcome them or at least quit giving
them a hard time. After all, this is
what we want, getting thousands of people back into some semblence [sic] of

"Today I heard from my folks. Seems

Henson pickets both
early and late. There is a report of stalking by Henson's wife.
Regarding this
Henson posts, "Well, my day began with calling
"911." Not my favorite way to
start the day. The same a__hole who
followed me from work to home a couple of pickets ago (funny way to measure
time was in front of my house this morning.
As I usually do with picketers to document their presence (I was asked
at deposition if I had any proof that I had been picketed), I photographed him
as I left the house to catch the train to work.
(I photographed 2 others yesterday.) . . .
The
policeman's first words to the picketer were something like "Hey, would
you give us all a break? There are such
things as stalking laws on the books."
As the officer detained the picketer, I said, "Thank you,
officer," and continued on my way to the train.
Aug. 4: Henson

Shy David's getting the GPS coordinates of various
locations at Gold base has made them super paranoid. When David said he was going to do this
conspicuously and post, I didn't think it would have any effect, I mean, how
nuts do you have to be to worry about ordinary folks getting strategic
weaponry? But it sure did. Folks who believe they are infested with the
spirits of murdered space aliens don't seem to have defenses to having their
legs pulled. Another clam cluster for
David. I guess that they have to work up
the clams inside so they can justify acting nuts over one lone wog walking up
and down the road with a picket sign.
Talk about being at cause . . ."
Aug. 5: Henson
pickets Gold base and posts, "Just as I was leaving, thug 2 who
had been using the standard abuse "questioning" on me for the
previous
Aug. 5 (Cont’d): half hour asked in a plantive [sic] voice
when I was going to be back. If they
were nice, I would tell them, but since they are not . . .
Aug. 6: Henson
pickets Gold base and posts, "I have not commented on this
before, but Gold base staff plays peek-a-boo with me at the guard gate. They stand behind it and move back and forth
so I can't see them. But like very small
kids, they usually leave part of them hanging out where I can see it. More or less grown people doing this is
somewhere between amusing and pathetic.
. . .
"Why are you smiling Mr. Henson. [sic]" (no answer) "It looks like a very
sinister smile to me." "You
enjoying this little game Mr. Henson of seeing what staff of this property you
can observe and phonograph and put on your black list Mr. Henson?" (no answer) "You enjoy that Mr.
Henson?" (no answer) [Richardson
prompts "stalk."] "It appears that he is stalking."
Aug. 7: Henson pickets Gold base, and posts
"Thug 2 got about 10 words in before I jumped back in my car, but instead
of heading in the direction I need to go, I went to the east parking spot, just
beyond the east underpass and as I went by the main gate, there was Richardson
getting into the black SUV--which tore off behind me.
Aug. 8: Deputy Greer brings "space-sling"
patent by Ida Camburn's and speaks with Henson about it.
Sheriff's Incident
Report by Greer, "Weapons of Mass Destruction." Report concludes,
"In reviewing of the internet postings I did not see any direct threat of
violence towards the church or any personnel of the church."
[On 08/7/00, Greer
had received the attached court documents and police reports from Edwin
Richardson, Private Investigator from the church. Senior Investigator Skiles
from the Riverside County District Attorney's Office requested the documents
from Richardson.]
Henson pickets and
posts, "Picketwise I got out there after 4 pm and
stayed just about an hour and ahalf [sic].
Virtually no IRS stuff today.
Perhaps they figured out that thereare [sic]questions that they really
don't want answered."
During this picket
Henson tapes the comments made to him by the scientology PIs and
notes that here is
enough in the tape which is suggestive of threats against his daughter (mention
of the college she is going to) for him to consider turning the tape over to
either the school or the local police.
Aug.
9: Henson pickets Gold and posts,
"When I got out there there was a crew working on an extremely detailed
survey of the road where Ashlee Shaner was killed. At first I was not sure
which side they were involved with, but after a short time of watching them it
became clear they were scns or working for them."
Aug.
10: Henson pickets Gold and posts,
"Started this morning just before 7 am.
My thugs were considerably subdued compared to previous days, and were
mostly concerned with my "extorting" $5 million from CoS. I should have asked if they wanted a
share. They justify dogging my steps
"to protect the property," when, of course, the object is to prevent
the staff inside from giving friendly waves to the "SP" walking along
the road.
. . .
The reaction of the thugs to Graham is downright
amazing. They dog my steps, seldom
getting more than ten feet away.
*Graham* shows up and they back off 100 feet!
I am most impressed by the
effect Graham has on my thugs. They have
backed off to at least 100 feet and sometimes 300 feet, with the exception of
when we first got out there and Richardson served me with a subpoena in the
*Hurtado* case!
. . .
Brent came down from San Jose this evening. Boy did that cause a stir with the PIs. Neighbors reported that one of them walked by
and crawled under either the front of Graham's Jeep or the back of Brent's
Firebird.
Putting a bug on? Taking a bug off? Who knows?
I looked, nothing obvious.
The neighborhood crawls with PIs. Some of them, like the young women who get
cooked in the sun, are pitiful."
Aug.
11: Henson posts, "Brent, Graham,
and I were out there just after 7 am. We
parked on the east end this time, under (*)'s gaze. Graham's sign said "LRH was on psych
drugs when he died" on one side and "Scientology: the 'Church' of
fair game" on the other. Brent had
"NO OTs Here" and "The Squirrels are INT management."
Mine was "The Church with a body count on one
side" and "No OTs etc" on the other.
[bunch of PI chasing] Brent and I put in a late
picket, starting about 7 pm. We walked
from the west end to the east underpass and back. We could hear a traffic cop keeping them from
using the west stairs down to the underpass as we went by. I tried to get a photo of the guard who was
playing peek-a-boo, but the bushes were too thick. Brent got thug 2 and I got Richardson, though
we didn't see them till we were most of the way to the main gate. (Did they have warning we were coming?)
Richardson stuck with me and Frank tried every button he could think of on
Brent."
Aug.
12: Henson posts, "I got out there
5-10 minutes before 7. Richardson and
Petty came along shortly. I told them
the story about Shy David and him trapping the PI in traffic on I-5."
Aug. 13: Henson pickets Gold, report
posted Aug. 18
"[Frank] Is she starting school Aug. 28?"
Aug. 14: Brent Stone and Keith
Henson picket Gold.
Aug. 16: Scientology attorney, Gerald Feffer (of
Williams and Connally, Washington, D.C.) writes to Deputy D.A. Kevin Ruddy. In
his letter, Feffer refers to the prior meeting
Aug. 16 (Cont’d):
between them and sets forth
factual and legal arguments that Henson should be arrested for extortion. Henson
pickets Los Gatos and San Jose orgs, visits the FBI office in San Jose. Henson posts:
My wife, daughter and the neighbors report that the
last few days before I came back from the latest round of picketing gold base,
the local pickets of my house droped off to nothing.
(Different post)
I do know that scn refused to let the investigators
look at Stacy's ethics file, claiming "religious" privilege.
The story about squirrels is just ridiculous. In the time I have been
picketing, I have seen two possums and at least a
dozen ground squirrels dead on the road.
Anyone on grounds work, which Stacy was, would know that the road, not
that transformer vault, is where the animals die.
Henson is served in
Palo Alto with 6 inches of legal paper in his bankruptcy case.
Aug. 17: Ava
Paquette calls Henson asking for a deposition date in a bogus case (eventually
dropped) they know to be impossible (Aug 28 is when I take my daughter to
college.) We settle on September 15,
2000. At this point Scientology
lawyers know I will be tied up on this date.
Sheriff's Incident Report by Greer,
"Weapons of Mass Destruction," states, "On 08/16/00, the above
listed victims were interviewed per the District Attorney's Office request. 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.
In Deputy Sheriff
Greer's declaration in support of the arrest warrant for Henson, he states,
"Per the District Attorney's Office, this case will be submitted with an
arrest warrant declaration."
Deputy Greer also
declares that he is, “. . . a PEACE OFFICER employed by THE RIVERSIDE COUNTY
DEPARTMENT. That he HAS INVESTIGATED THE
REPORTED CRIME of 11418.5 PC. That he ON INFORMATION AND BELIEF alleges the following
to be true:
The Defendant, Keith
Henson was arrested on 071900 for the above listed crime. Henson released per
849(b) (1) PC pending further investigation.
Your Declarant
conducted a follow-up investigation into this matter.
Your Declarant
discovered Internet posting about the Church of Scientology that where posted
on the Internet by 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 [with] 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.
Aug. 17 (Cont'd):
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 members 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 receives a page when Henson is at the property.
Those paged are to keep the rest of the employees away from the road in front
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. (emphasis added) [Note:
This is in contrast with his 8/8/00 report]
Aug. 18: Email and postal mail from Ava Paquette,
sending witness fee and insisting on a deposition date in San Jose. Alternate dates offered are Sept 7, 14, and
15.
"Please contact me immediately if you will agree
to one of the
alternative dates offered, or if it will be necessary
to file a motion to compel and seek appropriate sanctions."
Aug. 24 Prince post on Hong Kong
legal murder project.
Aug. 25 Henson posts Declaration in
bankruptcy case.
RTC's complaint about my income is much like that of a
person who has
killed their parents and then asks the court for mercy
because they are an orphan. They
(Scientologists under their direction) have done the best they could to make it
hard for me to do consulting work. They
have invaded the offices of one client, picketed two of my clients, and within
the last month picketed my wife's place of employment, trying to get *her*
fired. Recently their private investigators followed me to an interview for
consulting work. The investigators may
have interfered with my chances of getting work at this new company. People under the control of RTC maintain a
web site www.parishioners.org (note the s) which any prospective client or
employer will find. The web site accuses
me of vile crimes. They put up posters
in my neighborhood, and near a client's offices, samples of which were provided
in a previous declaration (August 25, 1999).
It has since been removed from the web site, but as may be seen in that
declaration, they showed photographs that I was being stalked in the client's
parking lot.
If this is not acting in bad faith by RTC I dont know
what would be.
Aug 27:
I got a call this morning from the mother of one of my
daughter's friends who lived across the street where we last lived in San
Jose--4 years ago.
Seems that some PI claiming dude had come calling with
a story about a
security background check for a job I was supposed to
have applied for.
After a few minutes, the guy started asking her
questions about my
daughter and her daughter. She twigged that something was very wrong and
closed the door on him, then gave me a call.
