Jul 7, 1982		Inside Scientology: Scientology versus the Merchants of Chaos — News-Herald (Santa Rosa, California) More: link Edit item... Type: Press Author(s): Dennis Wheeler Source: News-Herald (Santa Rosa, California) Throughout its nearly 30 years of existence, the Church of Scientology has had problems with its image in the media. Newspaper articles have called it a "bizarre brain-washing cult" founded by a former science fiction writer. Television coverage of recent hearings in Clearwater, Florida — home of the Church's U.S. headquarters — emphasized testimony that the group's founder, L. Ron Hubbard, is in hiding and, according to his son, might even be dead. And the Reader's Digest recently printed two controversial ...

May 11, 1982		16 witnesses unlock sect's closed society — Clearwater Sun (Florida) More: link Edit item... Type: Press Author(s): Bill Prescott Source: Clearwater Sun (Florida) The 16 witnesses who testified in Clearwater's public hearings on Church of Scientology activities provided the first-hand information city officials will use if they decide to design ordinances to regulate the sect. Boston attorney Michael Flynn, who gathered the witnesses, said he questioned them extensively about their Scientology experiences and people they knew in the sect. He confirmed that information through other witnesses and contacts inside the church, he said. If they had not been in the sect, Flynn said, "I'd ...

May 9, 1982		Ex-Scientologists describe illegal activities — St. Petersburg Times (Florida) More: link Edit item... Type: Press Author(s): John Harwood Source: St. Petersburg Times (Florida) CLEARWATER — Why, Robert Dardano was asked, had he done it — why had he participated with other Scientologists in burglaries and theft of documents and smear campaigns against the church's perceived enemies? Because he was convinced, the slender, soft-spoken Dardano told Clearwater city commissioners, "that Scientology was going to save the planet and free the world. "That we were right and everyone else was wrong," Dardano, a 31-year-old Boston resident, was one of eight witnesses to testify Saturday during commission ...

May 9, 1982		Witnesses tell of break-ins, conpiracy — Clearwater Sun (Florida) More: link Edit item... Type: Press Author(s): Steven Girardi Source: Clearwater Sun (Florida) In a story of international intrigue, a former senior executive of the Church of Scientology testified Saturday about a worldwide sect network involving infiltrations, conspiracies and smuggling. Scott Mayer, 38, told Clearwater city commissioners "I have personal experiences of all of these," in the forth day of the city's Scientology hearings, where legal consultant Michael Flynn paraded seven of his most damaging witnesses. Commissioners heard also from a former Guardian Office worker who said she used the sect's "confessional files" during ...

May 7, 1982		Scientology foes lambaste each other — St. Petersburg Times (Florida) More: news.google.com, news.google.com, link Edit item... Type: Press Author(s): John Harwood Source: St. Petersburg Times (Florida) CLEARWATER — L. Ron Hubbard Jr., now known as Ron DeWolf, and Paulette Cooper agree on at least two things. Each says Scientology is a fraud. Each says the other is untrustworthy and out to make a buck from criticizing Scientology. "He's such a liar," Ms. Cooper said of DeWolf. Later she referred to DeWolf's father, Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, and added, "He's a chip off the old block." DeWolf said he holds a similar view of Ms. Cooper. HE ...

Type: Press Author(s): Steven Girardi Source: Clearwater Sun (Florida) It has been 11 years since freelance writer Paulette Cooper published what she calls "the book that launched a thousand suits." And it has been about a week since she was served with the eighteenth lawsuit filed against her by the Church of Scientology. "I handled the eighteenth better," the thin, blond woman said Thursday. "But how can things not bother you? I work day and night to pay lawyers." Ms. Cooper, in Clearwater this week for the city's Scientology hearings, ...

May 6, 1982		Sect hearings open calmly — Clearwater Sun (Florida) More: link Edit item... Type: Press Author(s): Steven Girardi Source: Clearwater Sun (Florida) Edward Walters was fidgety and nervous as he embarked on five hours of testimony Wednesday during the city of Clearwater's first day of public hearings into alleged criminal activities by the Church of Scientology. "Excuse my nervousness," began the 44-year-old former high-ranking Scientologist. "I've never been in public like this before." "We're all a little a tensed-up, I suppose," Mayor Charles LeCher replied. So began testimony in the much-awaited and much-publicized hearings that city officials said could result in two ordinances ...
