Excerpt:
Of course, following the Masterson conviction, scientology put out a statement about how they have been subjected to “prejudice” and “bigotry.” Here it is, in all it’s holier-than-thou sliminess, and their usual outright lies.
The prosecution’s introduction of religion into this trial was an unprecedented violation of the First Amendment and affects the due process rights of every American. The Church was not a party to this case and religion did not belong in this proceeding as Supreme Court precedent has maintained for centuries.
The District Attorney unconscionably centered his prosecution on the defendant’s religion and fabrications about the Church to introduce prejudice and inflame bigotry. The DA elicited testimony and descriptions of Scientology beliefs and practices which were uniformly FALSE.
The Court’s statement of Church doctrine was her own invention, DEAD WRONG, and blatantly unconstitutional.
The Church has no policy prohibiting or discouraging members from reporting criminal conduct of anyone—Scientologists or not—to law enforcement. Quite the opposite, Church policy explicitly demands Scientologists abide by all laws of the land. All allegations to the contrary are totally FALSE.
There is not a scintilla of evidence supporting the scandalous allegations that the Church harassed the accusers. Every single instance of supposed
harassment by the Church is FALSE, and has been debunked.~~~READ MORE
