I saw Leah on 20/20 and her experience with those evil freaks in the Scientology cult left me wondering why the FBI & DOJ don’t go after Scientology with at least the same zeal that they pursue the Tea Party.
Scientology is considered a cult in Germany and is banned. Something tells me that Washington DC is getting paid.
Because of the 1st amendment. Churches can get away with things nobody else can.
Glad to see she got out of that and her family with her.
Tom Cruise Odd Scientology Bromance

Through his close dealings and time spent with Miscavige, DeVocht claims, he was able to witness Miscavige and Cruise’s relationship unfold firsthand.
They’re two peas in a pod, DeVocht says of Cruise and Miscavige. They’re very similar characters, both rather absorbed by themselves, and intensely so. You don’t want to look at them wrong, say anything wrong, and you definitely don’t want to better them in any way. You had to be very careful around them. I got the impression that Miscavige really liked Cruise, and he would constantly say that they’re good friends.

The Scientologists are all lawyered up at all times.
Scientology has been designated hands-off ever since they were granted tax-exempt status in the 1990s. The IRS had been after them for a billion dollars in back-taxes, that’s why L. Ron Hubbard spent his last days on a ship hitting ports around the world and staying away from countries that would extradite him. After Hubbard died, the guy who took over the “church” aggressively pounded the IRS with lawsuits. With billions of dollars in the coffers, they could afford to hire teams of lawyers that had all day every day free to flood the IRS with bogus lawsuits and court motions. The IRS finally cried uncle. Soon after, the FBI dropped any and all investigations into scientology because the IRS dropped their pursuit of them.
I saw the new movie about scientology and it’s horrifying. It’s not just testimony from former rank-and-file members (which is damning enough), it’s leaders who left as late as 2009 who are speaking out against this evil cult. You heard me, it is EVIL.
The harassment of former members of scientology is terrible. They violate every stalking law in the book. I don’t know why local state police departments and courts don’t get after them but I’m guessing it’s the same fear of endless frivolous lawsuits that backed down the US Government. The good thing is that membership in scientology is seriously dropping and people are leaving in record numbers. I think scientology will end in 20 years when membership numbers dip so low that the leaders disband it, take their billions of dollars, and go live overseas.
