In Memoriam: Neville Chamberlin (1947 – 2025) - Scientology Business News - lawsuits, financial records and shell companies
Alexander Barnes-Ross
Earlier this week, Tony Ortega announced the sad passing of former Scientologist Neville Chamberlin on The Underground Bunker. He was one of the first members of the elite ‘Sea Organisation’ in the 1960s and later rose the ranks, becoming one of Scientology’s top auditors and delivering sessions to the likes of UK executives Jane Kember, Herbie Parkhouse, David Gaiman and even L. Ron Hubbard himself.
With the birth of the internet he began speaking of his experiences at the highest ranks of Scientology under the pseudonym ‘Dart Smohen’ and became an instant target for Scientology’s attack wing, then called the Guardian’s Office (now known as the Office of Special Affairs, or OSA).
Nonetheless, he persevered in exposing the truth about what life was like behind the scenes during Hubbard’s time in the UK and never lost his typically British sense of charm and wit. His wife Danielle wrote a wonderful piece on Tony’s blog about his life and we thought it would be fitting to remember him by sharing some memories from those who knew him over the years.
Our heart goes out to Danielle and their family. Nev will forever be remembered for his good nature, his loyalty and his tales, quite literally from the high seas.
