My first reaction to the scientology connection was to dismiss it too. But after seeing the story about the woman who was dehydrated and starved to death by the scientologist in Clearwater, I think there is a connection. The rest of her estate was drained during the time she was held captive. Penellas County evidently is rife with financial guardianship abuses. The auditor for Pinellas County wants to open up the records, but Judge Greer and others are fighting open records, even though other counties in Florida have an open records policy.
Why wasn't she in a hospital. why didn't the police take her to a hospital rather than letting the scientologist get her back? Why wasn't a proper investigation of the incident done? Instead the police said that the three people directly responsible had fled the country? Why is scientology banned in Germany?
I'm not an expert on scientology, but the other story of starvation and dehydration occurred in Clearwater under the direct control of the scientologist without being properly investigated.
I definitely think there is a connection. One thing we know, that it is a godless town. When God is left out of our lives, we open ourselves up to the enemy of the soul, satan. There is no doubt that scientology is of the enemy.
"Pinellas County evidently is rife with financial guardianship abuses."
I think this is the true conspiracy. Mike, Terri and Jodi and Jodi's family are all involved in the insurance business. The judges and lawyers for mike are all involved in medical businesses....there is some sort of financial hanky panky going on!
