Bill and Barbara Z.

A married couple, both dentists, who got into Scientology via WISE.

Video Interview

 

 

These two dentists from the Chicago area were defrauded by WISE and demanded a refund from the Church of Scientology. Expecting trouble in their attempt to get their money back from Scientology, they called the LMT. I flew to Chicago to do a video interview with them.

Needless to say, Scientology heavily objected to my presence. While standing on a public sidewalk filming the dentists as they entered the Church of Scientology of Chicago building, two uniformed, off-duty police officers hired by Scientology arrested me on bogus criminal trespassing charges. A costly and time-consuming lawsuit ensued based on trumped-up charges of criminal trespassing - complete with several affidavits written by "eye-witnesses" who are known to work for Scientology's Office of Special Affairs. I was inevitably acquitted of all charges in that lawsuit.

Mysteriously, the video tape which contained the original interview with the dentists as well as the bogus trespassing incident disappeared from my camera after it was confiscated by those off duty police officers working for Scientology. However, I did do another video interview with the dentists before leaving Chicago - and they talk about their experiences in Scientology as well as the bogus arrest.

Before the trial began, they settled their claim with Scientology but as a condition to receiving that refund, were forced to sign a "gag order" which in essence meant that they could no longer speak publicly about Scientology in derogatory terms. However, the video interview was shot before their gag order so their story can continue to be told.

They also were able to act as witnesses at my trial and, in a court of law were able to speak the truth about what had happened to them and also made it clear to the jury that Scientology orchestrated my arrest to keep me from recording the outrageous story of fraud they had to tell.
