“Was the ex-wife of the head honcho ever found, I wonder?”
I don’t think she was. Her evil husband made sure of that. Plus, IIRC, the Clearwater cops are owned by the Scientologist cult. The actual Mafia has nothing on this cult when it comes to viciousness.
I recall some of the last segments of the series were covered in Clearwater - everyone in politics there bowing down to the “cult”, huge office buildings that were vacant, owned by the “cult” and electricity remained hooked up - for what reason, I don’t think they ever said but it was what the “cult” wanted. I never could make myself call it a church...and it was annoying through the series to hear it referred to as a church..I remember when Leah Remini sat on a bench on some of “their” property there and she was told she needed permission to sit there!! I think she told the guard or whatever where to go - LOL...She was perfect for blowing the whistle on all of it...A+ job...
