How Scientology ‘caretakers’ could stand by and watch Lisa McPherson deteriorate

Inside the room there was hardly anything other than a bed and the person being given the silent treatment. Outside the room, there was someone watching to make sure that the door stayed closed and the person inside didn’t get out.

It was Scientology’s first “Introspection Rundown,” and it happened more than 50 years ago on a ship sailing the Atlantic that was called the Apollo. The person inside the cabin was a member of the crew named Bruce Welch, who had temporarily lost his mind.

The person sitting outside, providing security, was a young Australian Scientologist named Mike Rinder.

“It was my first job on the Apollo. To sit outside the cabin with Bruce Welch. And I can tell you, no one interacted with him at all,” Rinder (1955-2025) told us ten years ago for this series the first time it ran.

The former Scientology spokesman, who left the church in 2007, remembered that Welch had not only had a psychotic break, but that he was a large man and an intimidating one.

“I was terrified of that guy. He was huge, and violent,” Rinder said.

At Flag, the primary concern, perhaps only concern, would be to avoid "out PR".

And allowing her to be seen by "wog" medical professionals, like at a real hospital. would guarantee "out PR" and perhaps have police questioning what the FUCK was going on at the FH.

Ouch. Ouch.

In those photos of Lisa McPherson, she kinda looks 'spacey'. So many in Scientology don't really have their feet well planted on the ground. It's like the philosophy itself may be an escape. There was a similar feel about Marshall Applegate with the Heaven's Gate cult.

I sympathize with what Mike Rinder went through. On ship he was neither well fed or well slept enough to play out David and Goliath.

In one of her podcasts, Janis Gillham Grady had said this psychotic break happened to another staffer she had experience with. A female. She felt the origin story was different, that related to forming the rundown to calm a person down in an emergency.

My experience is, you spiritually become somewhat evicted, with the body's anchors pulling back tightly and electronic hot spots felt on meridians.. They whole of cellular structure feels like it's crushed into a newly made cluster amidst protest... out of control. You can feel stiffly robotic....an automaton, that if you got smashed by a mack truck, the body would immediately snap back infallibly, into its original conditiion. ( like foil found at Roswell )

Scientology owns it's own set of crazy phenomena.. Like burnt out writers or roid ragers or tennis elbow. The hurt is specific to the sport being played. Our offensive teams are designed for 'escaping this universe'. We wreak a lot of mental havoc en route, which necessitates a lot of session time. Sessions where an auditor verbally calls aloud mysterious 'reasons why' from a sheet of paper to a troubled client holding electrodes. One starts to cringe having to go through it, as you may get indicated even more confusing things that went wrong__ to be fixed when you get up the bridge.

Having a psychotic break in Scientology is unique to that specifically taped path they've chosen as the only way Out. Folks didn't all experience the same going IN, so why insist the same way OUT.

I am reminded of the Frankenstein scene..... creature lying flat on the table hooked to electric cables\ doctor having sewed up all those pieces form all those different corpses / having electrified them into one single monster

Shoddy mental practices antagonize and stir up, indiscriminately waking up chains of being into discordant live energy. If you plan to go where no man has gone before___choose a guide with correct map.
