it would seem tom cruise and some top officials of the church of scientology have been named in a 250million dollar lawsuit accusing them of coruption under the RICO act which stands for Rackateering Influenced and Corupt organization act. this is in regards to a dispute between CoS and Peter Letterese over the book Effective Sales Closing Techniques which was written by Leslie Dane.

Letteresse claims to own the copyright to the book which the church uses in it's teachings

how sad for the church that their good name is in the same sentance as RICO all through out the media today. I'm sure their not happy about that. nor would they be happy about the US government taking a look at their books.

it would seem this court case could go any which way. they may win, or they may not. but one thing seems to be certain, pandoras box has been opened, and this is a major foot in the door for federal authorities to finally expose this organization for its corruption and abuse.

for those who protect the top execs of the RTC, now would be a good time to rethink your position. it's not too late to get out. I'm sure you know by now they would have no problem throwing you under the bus to save their own hides.

the ship is beginning to sink, are you ready to sink with it?

don't believe me? check this out.

  • this is outstanding-- whatever the reasoning, to get the feds INTO their secrecy may cause an interesting outcome, I look forward to hearing of more on this case~

  • nice little loophole in the US law RICO charges can be used in civil suits.

  • OH F*CK YEAH!!

    the wheels have spun, and momentum is gained-

    the final stages of the fall are at hand!

    Hopefully after this, the ones suppressed will come forward and DM as well as the other corrupt leaders of CoS will be where they belong, behind bars.

    Thank you for this video, I was eager to hear of something like this.

  • it's a nice push in the right direction. they'll most likely try to settle out of court. but definately not the publicity they're looking for at the moment. I was stoked to hear about it. first cult to be protested for 7 months straight and have a RICO charge.

  • Ah finally the feds have reason to bust in!

  • Ya I have been wondering were the FBI has been in all of this....especially in concern with ppl at Goldbase. $cientology keeps ppl from voting when in the RPF, and only a felony record can keep an American citzen from voting. Do you watch any of the videos from the Riverside County Board of Supervisors, just wondering?!?

  • I would like to wish Mr Letterese good luck with his case, if he wins it will be a win for all of us.

  • Bring on the witnesses,should be fun.

  • Epic!!

  • I smell burning TOAST!

    CoS's unethical practices have finally come to light.

    Do the right thing CoS managers--go to the FBI for immunity for yourselves and your families and TESTIFY.

  • This is awesome, but keep up the protest Anon, don't give them an inch, and don't do anything risky.

  • oh but the shame, CoS is world wide now~

    all governments with any sense are already looking at CoS with a strange eye~
