Today's Blind Items - Escaping Your Church

"This once upon a time almost B+ list female singer is now more famous for being famous. Hey, at least it keeps her wealthy. She is also known for being a devout member of this church. She recently left it though after she suffered a nervous breakdown and went on an alcohol binge that would make Arthur proud. She went to rehab and while in rehab began seeing a psychiatrist. Uh oh. She also left her church which is never a good thing. However, if you are wealthier it is easier to avoid them. They knock at her door everyday and dig through her trash, but she just hires more and more security to keep them all away and stays locked inside her house. It is a stand off. Oh, the tales she will be able to tell. But what about her kids? Her other relatives who are also in the church?"
........................................

Of course this must be referring to Lisa Marie Presley. Anyone knowledgeable about Scientology, who also knows her history with it, can see the connection. And it's not surprising to me because many exs like myself have wondered when she was going to crack. The control they try to exert on these celebrities is intense. Lisa's history before she bacame a solid scientologist involved drugs and alcohol and they were supposed to have 'cured her' with their unworkable program Narconon and Purification Program.

So, if this story is true and it's about Lisa Marie Presley, its a major problem for the church if the facts get out. A major problem for it's front group CCHR!

Lets hope the reporter keeps digging and reporting on this. It will be helping whoever this victim is, and so many others who are wanting to leave but don't for fear of the cult's infamous disconnection policy and harassment as the article described.

Top Scientologist charged with perverting justice - Again



The infamous Jan Eastgate aka Jan Meyers, executive director of the Church of Scientology front group Citizens Commission on Human Rights, is once again in the news, being charged a second time for her crimes related to talking a child and her mother into not going to the authorities to report a scientologist relative who sexually abused the child.

While the wheels of justice turn slowly, they are headed in the right direction. Even though Meyers was ok'd to be in the USA, she failed to appear as required for the hearing today on the first charge. Perhaps she knew there was to be a second charge.... In any event, charged in absentia, she's in hot water and will have to appear eventually. Let us hope the USA extradites her as soon as possible. Here's the latest on that hearing.

EMMA ALBERICI, PRESENTER: One of the Church of Scientology's senior international figures, Jan Eastgate, has been charged for a second time in Sydney today.

Last year, Ms Eastgate was charged with perverting the course of justice in relation to allegations that she coached an 11-year-old girl to lie to police and community services about the sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of her Scientologist stepfather.

The allegations were raised publicly for the first time on Lateline in 2010.

Today, she was charged with another offence relating to perverting the course of justice.

Ms Eastgate is the international president of the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, an organisation founded by the Church of Scientology. She was awarded the Church's Freedom Medal for promoting human rights in 1988.

Jan Eastgate is due to appear at a committal hearing at Sydney's Downing Centre on May 15. She has yet to enter a plea.
