she would not help herself. ..that.
.
.you know.. .that
•
|
they wouldn’t let her drive anymore that day because
|
they felt that she may be a little upset about being in the car accident. So they assured me that she would be safe. IJmm.. .she was discharged from the ER. Now,
•
|
I don’t have responsibility for discharging people from
|
the ER. The medical staff there does.
•
As far as I was concerned, the people did not meet Baker Act criteria and we could not keep her in the hospital against her will. But I did remain in the ER until the time that she was discharged. When she was discharged, she left accompanied by at least six and probably more members. They identified themselves as members of the Church of Scientology and there were at least three of the people from the church on either side of her walking down the
•
|
hallway. While she walked down the hallway in the
|
•
|
middle of the hallway, they were on either side of
|
her and they escorted her out of the hospital.
Det. Sudler:
|
Were. ..this group of six individuals.
.
.were they males
|
and females?
Det. Sudler:
|
Were any of them in uniform or...?
|
Price:
|
I don’t believe. There. .there were people in.. .outside
|
in the waiting area of the Emergency Room that were in fact in uniforms.
•
I remember that there were a few.
•
|
Det. Sudler:
•
How many people did you talk to or did you see that
|
either identified themselves as members of the church or you saw wearing the.. .the uniform of the church?
Price:
|
At least two.
•
Like I said, the one small guy with
|
the nice suit on and there was a female that did
•
•
|
a lot of speaking for.. .on Lisa’s behalf. And she
|
identified herself as “a friend”. But she also
identified herself as a member of the congregation.
