Meet
Bob Minton
Bob
Minton is a 54 year old retired investment banker from
Boston and Sandown, New Hampshire, who became a critic
of Scientology in early 1995 after one of Scientology's
attorneys tried to cancel a newsgroup on the Internet
on which critics of Scientology were posting.

|
|
Starting
in March, 1996, he began committing substantial financial
resources to oppose what he calls the evil abusive, deceptive
and harassive tactics used by Scientology to suppress its
members and critics. To date, Bob has committed over $4 million
of his own funds to defend himself against Scientology's campaign
to destroy him, and to assist others in their opposition to
Scientology.

In January,
2000, Bob Minton opened a Scientology watchdog group in Clearwater,
Florida where Scientology maintains their worldwide "spiritual"
training center. He called it the Lisa McPherson Trust in
honor of a 36-year-old victim of Scientology who died after
a seventeen-day stay at Scientology's headquarters in Clearwater.
| Although
Scientology successfully intimidated the Pinellas County
medical examiner into changing her autopsy report, thereby
causing a criminal case against Scientology for her death
to be dismissed, the family of Lisa McPherson has brought
a civil suit against Scientology. |
