Date of Report

Ms. Brennan: Urn, for 3 1/2 - for 3 years.
Det. Carrasquillo:
Okay. What I would like to know, is how many years of experience have
you had at this particular profession.
Ms. Brennan:
Okay. I was a firefighter paramedic over at New Port Richey Fire
-
Department about 2 1/2 years. I decided to go ahead and further myself
as a registered nurse, so I got a job in the emergency room. This is my first job in an actual emergency room. Urn, what can I tell you. Urn, like I said, I’ve been continuing my education so...
Det. Carrasquilo:
How many years have you been dealing with patients coming in and out
of hospitals?
Ms. Brennan:
Since about 1991.
Det. Carrasquillo:
Okay. So you probably at that time had four years of experience.
Ms. Brennan:
Correct.
Det. Carrasquillo:
Okay. And three of those years were at Morton Plant.
Ms. Brennan:
Yeah.
Det. Carrasquillo:
Have you dealt with other Scientologists pertaining to hospitals?
Ms. Brennan:
Yes. Yes.
Det. Carrasquilo:
Was this a normal incident as compared to the other ones that you dealt
with?
Ms. Brennan:
No.
Det. Carrasquillo:
What was the difference?
Ms. Brennan:
Urn, the difference was that I had never personally had a Scientologist
come in for a psych evaluation and I’ve never had so much controversy
with an individual. Now, when people from the church come in, they almost always, I have to say 99% of the time come in with what they call a medical liaison. Urn, they very rarely come in on their own. This individual was brought on her own of course, from EMS, and like I said, there was so much controversy considering what was going on.
Det. Carrasquillo:
What do you mean by controversy?
Ms. Brennan:
Well, like I said they were very adamant that they did not want a
psychiatric evaluation on her. They made it quite clear that was against their religious practices. And, urn, basically, they did not leave her bedside and they were just, I guess, not very happy that an evaluation was going to be completed.
