Scientology Memoirs :: Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers September 1994 – July 1996 Retrieved from the wayback machine & elsewhere to preserve for future generations: http://web.archive.org/web/20040319020754/www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/Lobby/7301/ Preface Jon Randall (Randy) McDonald was a contracted staff songwriter with MCA Publishing in Los Angeles when he first became introduced to Scientology in early 1971. Within a matter of a few months, he beseeched Warren Brown, then the West Coast Vice President for Publishing at MCA, to let him out of his contract so that he could pursue his newfound religious convictions. Brown reluctantly agreed, and Randy McDonald signed a Sea Org contract at Celebrity Centre in Los Angeles. Randy served in the Sea Organization for 12 years, from 1971 until 1983. He held several executive posts, receiving extensive administrative training, and working directly with Yvonne (Gillham) Jentzsch, who had established Celebrity Centre. In 1974, he became editor of "Celebrity," the official magazine of the Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre. Although his title was editor, he also art directed and designed the publication, did illustrations and photography for it, and interviewed some of the biggest names in Scientology, including John Travolta, Chick Corea, and Diana Hubbard, among many others. He was personally commended by L. Ron Hubbard for the quality of "Celebrity" magazine. In 1983, having been promoted to the position of Acting Commanding Officer PR for Celebrity Centre International, he was illegally ordered to the RPF. Randy refused to go. As a result, a Fitness Board was convened on him, giving him a Catch-22 choice: either choose to go to the RPF, or be charged with "wanting to leave the Sea Org." Since he steadfastly refused to go to the RPF, it was ruled that he "wanted to leave," so he was deemed "unfit" and routed out of the Sea Org. Randy moved his family to his hometown, Huntsville, Alabama, where he became a partner in an advertising firm. The McDonald Papers But by 1986, he was receiving offers to come back to L.A. and work in design there. He and his family moved back, and within six months Randy had been hired by Bridge Publications, Inc. (BPI) to handle the advertising and marketing campaigns for L. Ron Hubbard's "Mission Earth" series. Randy wrote, designed, and art directed the international advertising campaigns for Volumes V through X of the series, and in the meantime was secured by Author Service, Inc. (ASI) to design their "Special Properties" catalog, and to be the writer (writing as "Jon Randall") who would adapt the first five "Mission Earth" volumes to audio cassette scripts for Random House. Yet for all his accomplishments, contributions, and commendations, Randy McDonald has now been declared a suppressive person and expelled from the Church. Why? It started in August of 1994, when he became aware of an issue put out by the current management of the Church. It was, to Randy McDonald, and alarming issue--a type of issue never established by the Founder of Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard. It was called a "Scientology Policy Directive." It was an illegal issue-type. It had no official status or power according to standard Scientology policy, but it was being used to stop people's progress in Scientology. So Randy McDonald wrote it up to senior-most management, expecting that it would be cancelled forthwith. Instead, his report set off a chain of bizarre events that led Randy deeper and deeper into an investigation of what lay behind such a ridiculous issue, and deeper and deeper into attacks on him, his family, his friends, his character, and his motives. The story took nearly two years to unfold. It is a story that could never be fully told in narrative. It can only be told with the original documents, carefully preserved by a handful of faithful archivists whom the world will probably never know. You will find them written to by Randy McDonald in this archive: Mookie, Little John, Terpsichore, Elf, JD, Darwin, Aquarius, Ace of Spades, Ace of Hearts, Ace of Clubs, and Ace of Diamonds. Who are they? Who knows? Certainly, DM does not know. Certainly, OSA does not know. Certainly, IJC does not know. But certainly, we have them to thank for this invaluable record of tyranny, ineffable injustice, blatant criminality, and imperious disdain, practiced by a small handful of thugs in a management gone mad. Certainly, we have them to thank for these: The McDonald Papers. Timeline & Index Preface Who was Randy McDonald? The McDonald Papers 14 September 1994 Original HIGH CRIME Report by Randy McDonald on an SP Directive (Scientology Policy Directive) called PERSONAL INCOME TAX, naming the Tax Compliance Officer OSA Int and AVC International as being the guilty parties to the HIGH CRIME. 14 May 1995 HIGH CRIME, SUPPRESSIVE ACT report written by Randy McDonald on David Miscavige, Chairman of the Board of RTC, and on Jim Morrow, Tax Compliance Officer OSA Int. For withhold of vital information regarding the secrecy of the agreement between COS and IRS. 15 April 1995 HIGH CRIME, SUPPRESSIVE ACT report written by Randy McDonald on Jim Morrow, Ray Mithoff, and AVC Int for SPDs existing and being issued. 7 July 1995 Non-Enturbulation Order issued on Randy McDonald and six other parishioners, naming them as "tax protestors," and referencing the SP Directive called PERSONAL INCOME TAX. This is the document that created the "Scientology Seven." 13 July 1995 Randy McDonald's reply to receipt of Non Enturbulation Order. 18 August 1995 Bill of Particulars for the Committee of Evidence convened on Randy McDonald and four of the original "Scientology Seven." Though this Committee was insisted upon by several of the Interested Parties, no mention is made of that fact in the Bill of Particulars, and it is left to appear as though this is a form of discipline by the Church. 23 August 1995 FAX from Randy McDonald to Paul Laquerre re: getting a copy of the Comm Ev Bill of Particulars and arranging testimony. 9 September 1995 Knowledge Report by Randy McDonald detailing a phone call between him and the LRH Comm at CC Int, Matthew Veenker. Veenker was the Convening Authority for the Comm Ev. 30 September 1995 FAX from Randy McDonald to the Comm Ev Secretary, advising her that he was arriving in Los Angeles for the Comm Ev that day, but had been given no notification of place and time, as had been promised. 30 September 1995 A Knowledge Report by Randy McDonald, written for the Committee of Evidence, regarding the charges of the Committee of Evidence. The McDonald Papers 17 December 1995 New Bill of Particulars disbanding the original Committee (see file of 18 August 1995) and seating a new one. NOTE: This is FOUR MONTHS after the original Committee was convened. Also, note that this Bill does NOT mention SP Directives anywhere in it. 22 December 1995 Letter Faxed to Matthew Veenker from Randy McDonald with terse message regarding the "Comm Ev." 24 February 1996 Second letter Faxed to Matthew Veenker regarding no results from the "Comm Ev" (really only a joke at this point) TWO-HUNDRED DAYS after it was convened, and SIXTYFOUR DAYS since the new "committee" had been appointed. 7 March 1996 The now-famous 23-page HIGH CRIME report written by Randy McDonald on David Miscavige, declaring David Miscavige a Suppressive Person, and providing evidence of federal felonies. It was written as a result of investigating why the Findings and Recommendations of the Committee(s) of Evidence had never been allowed to see the light of day. Many of the issues contained in this report had come up in "pulling the string" on SP Directives, and the Committee members (both sets) had been given much of the information. But the Findings and Recommendations of both seated committees had been suppressed. 9 May 1996 Letter Faxed to Randy McDonald from Kurt Weiland, Deputy Commanding Officer of OSA Int, threatening Randy with being declared (as a suppressive person and expelled from the Church) if Randy didn't come to L.A. and show up physically at OSA Int. 9 May 1996 Letter from Randy McDonald, Faxed to Kurt Weiland in response to Weiland's Faxed letter of same date (see entry above), and stating that Randy would not be coming to L.A. 13 May 1996 2nd letter Faxed from Kurt Weiland to Randy McDonald, following up both Randy's 9 May letter, and a phone call between them that occurred on 11 or 12 May. 23 May 1996 Randy McDonald's reply to Kurt Weiland's letter of 13 May (see entry above). In it, Randy spells out exactly on what terms he would consider coming to L.A., and exactly what would have to be addressed and accomplished. 2 June 1996 Randy McDonald's follow-up to his 23 May letter to Kurt Weiland. There had been no response whatsoever to the 23 May letter. In this letter, Randy attaches printouts of federal criminal statutes that he feels may be involved, and urges Weiland to contact him. There is The McDonald Papers no response to this letter, either. The next thing to issue forth from anyone connected with the Church is Randy McDonald's expulsion and declare. 11 June 1996 Suppressive Person Declare on Randy McDonald. Boilerplate generalities and blatantly false accusations are the foundation on which it is built. 12 June 1996 Randy McDonald's request to the HCO Area Secretary at Celebrity Centre Nashville for a Committee of Evidence, as is his right per the HCO PL on Suppressive Person declares. 13 June 1996 Letter from Randy McDonald to the archivists of these documents, advising them that he had been declared, and that he was going to pursue handling it on normal Church lines. 14 June 1996 Letter Faxed from IJC Al Sternson to Randy McDonald, advising Randy that the policy had been changed (!), blocking the requested Comm Ev on a technicality (that Randy had misrouted the request per the policy revision), and stating that Randy would have to apply to IJC in order to receive a Comm Ev (while making other sly implications). 16 June 1996 Randy McDonald's Faxed scathing response to IJC Al Sternson's letter of 14 June (see entry above). Randy attaches a copy of his amended request for a Comm Ev (see entry below), and refers to it in this letter. 16 June 1996 Randy's amended request for a Committee of Evidence, routed to Continental Justice Chief East U.S. per the "revised" policy referenced by IJC Al Sternson in his 14 June letter. Randy demands a Committee of Evidence as his right in policy, and demands that it be convened at Celebrity Centre Nashville, quoting all the relevant policy that requires that it be held there. Randy also spells out all the reasons he believes there will be an attempted effort to force him to come to L.A., and spells out in detail why that would be both impossible and offpolicy. 16 June 1996 A letter by Randy's wife, Ronni McDonald, to the archivists, containing copies of letters written by several of the McDonald children (Paige, Devin, and Grayson) to IJC Al Sternson, asking him to please handle this situation with their father fairly. 17 June 1996 Matthew Veenker's infamous (and hilarious) "KNOWLEDGE REPORT" on Stephen Mitchell, where Veenker freely admits that he (Veenker) intercepted mail not addressed to him (a federal felony) when Mitchell tried to send information to the HCO Area Secretary at CC Nashville in support of Randy McDonald for the anticipated Comm Ev. The McDonald Papers 18 June 1996 Randy McDonald's Faxed letter to the senior OSA Missionaire at CC Nashville advising them to cease and desist any further violation of Randy's civil and constitutional rights, and to cease and desist in their efforts to slander and libel him. 21 June 1996 Bill of Particular for Randy McDonald's requested Committee of Evidence, approved by IJC Al Sternson. Naturally, it is ordered that the Committee be held in Los Angeles, making it impossible for Randy to attend. 22 June 1996 A letter from IJC Al Sternson advising Randy McDonald that he is "getting the hearing" he requested, and giving vapid justifications for the Committee being convened in L.A. 24 June 1996 A HIGH CRIME and FELONY report on IJC Al Sternson, et al. This report lays out in detail the entire chain of events leading up to the declare on Randy McDonald and the Committee of Evidence he requested. It spells out violations of federal criminal codes by the parties named in the report, and explains why all of it has been obstruction of justice, designed to protect and hide the crimes of David Miscavige and his closest associates. 25 June 1996 Query of Order on the Committee of Evidence Bill of Particulars. 25 June 1996 Query of Order on the Suppressive Person Declare. 25 June 1996 Randy McDonald's Letter of Disconnection from David Miscavige, Al Sternson, Kurt Weiland, Lymon Spurlock, et al. 28 June 1996 The Committee of Evidence Findings and Recommendations confirming Randy McDonald's Suppressive Person Declare, and finding him guilty of all charges against him (because he didn't show up in L.A. for it). 29 June 1996 IJC Al Sternson's cover letter that came to Randy McDonald with a copy of the Findings and Recommendations. Sternson characterizes Randy's charges of federal felonies as "meritless." 13 July 1996 Randy McDonald's final letter to the archivists, thanking them for their help, and announcing the finality of the outcome. Randy refers to the enclosure (see entry below) officially relinquishing all his rights to the documents in this index, and releasing them into the public domain. The McDonald Papers 13 July 1996 Enclosure to letter of same date (see entry above) officially relinquishing all his rights to the documents in this index, and releasing them into the public domain. Text above and enclosed documents are collected after communication with anonymous persons. HTML'ized by Andreas Heldal-Lund and hosted by OPERATION CLAMBAKE. Stavanger, Norway - 1997 The McDonald Papers ( 1 ) 14 September 1994 Terpsichore: Below is the report that started the whole mess. I thought the people I routed it to would jump right on it, straighten it all out, and be every bit as alarmed about it as I was. Silly me. As it turns out, it seems that I, in fact, had accidentally struck at the very core of Miscavige's main two forces for power: SPDs and AVC International. Without AVC under his control, he couldn't get SPDs produced and distributed wholesale to effect his various nefarious operations. But there I was, all wide-eyed innocent. Whoever said you live and learn only had it half right. Corrected version: "You live fast and learn slow." Thanks for archiving these, whoever you are, wherever you are.

"This is therefore a HIGH CRIME policy letter and it is an offense both to follow or obey or issue any verbal or written order or directive which is contrary to or changes or 'abolishes' anything set up in HCO Policy Letters or HCOBs, including the downgrade of 'that's out-of-date' or 'that's been cancelled' without showing the HCO PL or HCOB which revises or cancels." L. Ron Hubbard The referenced Policy Directive is in direct contravention to HCO PL 14 June 1965, Issue II, "POLITICS, FREEDOM FROM," which states: "2. Politics and ideology may be no part of any decision to train or process individuals, and any such interrogation shall cease to be a part of any application for training, processing or membership." L. Ron Hubbard This policy directive also contains generalities and falsehoods and outpoints, e.g.: 1. "None of these ideas has ever been sanctioned by the Church." This would make the not-quite-bright believe that his politics and ideology require Church sanction, which makes a mockery of The Creed of the Church of Scientology, violates the Constitutional mandate of separation of Church and State, and, again, seeks to negate HCO PL "POLITICS, FREEDOM FROM." This one statement, issued over the imprimatur of "CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY INTERNATIONAL" (which it is) is all the ammunition any suppressive official or group needs to launch more attacks concerning Church "control" over its parishioners. 2. "These tax schemes are invariably found to be based on misunderstood words or misinterpretations of the law." A bare and bald generality that is also a falsehood, seeking to lump any and all efforts to legally disconnect from the IRS (a suppressive group) under the heading of a "scheme" that is "invariably," etc. This is A=A. It seeks to bar ALL routes for an individual to pursue in standardly applying the tech on disconnection to IRS, and so seeks to negate that technology. The McDonald Papers 3. The Directive freely admits that the graduated income tax system is suppressive, then threatens debarment from Church services for anyone who seeks to disconnect from that suppression. This is a HIGH CRIME per HCO PL 23 DECEMBER 1965RB, "SUPPRESSIVE ACTS--SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS": "Refusal to allow staff or public to progress up the Bridge or creating blocks on the Bridge preventing such progress." Stripped of its verbiage, generalities, confused ideas, and falsehoods, this Policy Directive ultimately seeks to debar individuals from training and processing based on THE SOLE CRITERIA OF POLITICS AND IDEOLOGY, directly and suppressively in contradiction to LRH policies. In HCO PL 14 JUNE 1965, Issue II, "POLITICS, FREEDOM FROM," LRH states: "7. Scientologists may be members of any political group on this planet without restraint only so long as these individuals or that group do not attempt to seize Scientology for their own warlike ends and so make it unworkable or distasteful by invidious connection." L. Ron Hubbard And, in The Creed of the Church of Scientology: "We of the Church believe: "That all men have inalienable rights to conceive, choose, assist or support their own organizations, churches and governments; "That all men have inalienable rights to think freely, to talk freely, to write freely their own opinions and to counter or utter or write upon the opinions of others." L. Ron Hubbard Who, then, are these people in high places of trust within the Church who would put themselves above LRH and Policy, who would use their positions and power to deny these rights as expressed by LRH, who would use their positions and power to debar from the Bridge Scientologists in good standing—Scientologists who have been found guilty of no crime, who have been charged with no crime, Scientologists who have had NO recourse to Scientology justice procedures. And these people in high places in the Church--the Tax Compliance Officer OSA INT and whoever approved this at AVC International--would do this in the name of the Scientology justice codes? It is a sacrilege and a travesty. I would hope that this issue would be canceled immediately, and that an investigation be conducted into the purposes and intentions and The McDonald Papers connections behind it. Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers ( 2 ) 14 May 1995 Elf: Below please find a copy of a report I wrote after a phone call I made to Jim Morrow, Tax Compliance Officer, OSA Int. A friend of mine from L.A. had overheard Paul Laquerre, the Ethics Officer at Celebrity Centre International, saying that this person from OSA had been "trying to locate Randy McDonald" after I had moved to Nashville in October, 1994. (I still don't know why he couldn't locate me--we had left complete forwarding phone and mail information everywhere. OSA competence, I suppose.) So I called Jim Morrow to let him know that rumors of my effervescence had been greatly exaggerated, and that I was indeed alive and well and living in Tennessee. I asked him why he had been trying to reach me, and he told me it was to "clear up any confusions I had" about SPD "PERSONAL INCOME TAXES" (which he had written)--the one I wrote a report on back in September '94. I told him I didn't have any confusions--the issue was patently illegal and inane, which was why I wrote the report. He justified it by telling me it was based on this "BIGWINPEACETREATY" with IRS. So, since he brought it up, I said, "Great. Why don't you send me a copy of it, or tell me where I can get one to read, I'll word clear it if needed, and then maybe I will understand the whole thing a lot better." That's when he told me it was secret. There was a painfully long comm lag on my end. I stood incapacitated. I finally asked him to repeat what he said. He said it was a secret agreement, confidential, closed, perdu. Our conversation did not end well after he refused to put that in writing. Someday these reports may mean something to someone. They sure didn't mean anything to the people I routed them to. Thanks for archiving them. And here it is.

L. RON HUBBARD "An Essay on Management" On 8 October 1993, David Miscavige announced publicly that an agreement (a "peace treaty") had been signed with the Internal Revenue Service of the United States. According to a phone conversation with Jim Morrow, Tax Compliance Officer at OSA Int., which took place around the 10th of May, 1995, Miscavige withheld the following vital information: 1. The "peace treaty" itself is secret, and may not be seen by parishioners or staff (although Morrow himself claimed to have seen the document, implying that there are limited exceptions). 2. It was the desire of both or all parties (meaning both the IRS and the participating church officials) to keep the agreement secret. Both statements above have been affirmed by Jim Morrow, but only verbally in the phone conversation. In that phone conversation, he was asked to commit those statements to writing, but he adamantly refused. In statement #2 above, it says "both (or all) parties," because another vital piece of withheld information is exactly who entered into the agreement with the IRS. No data has been released naming the parties to the agreement, and Jim Morrow also asserted verbally over the phone that this information is part of the secret. Therefore it is unknown whether the agreement is with RTC, or with the C of S Int, or both, or whether it includes other parties. Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers ( 3 ) 15 April 1995 Mookie: I like the handle. It sounds friendly. And I understand that you are. I don't know how much you know about the series of documents The McDonald Papers you've agreed to keep copies of, but I appreciate the help. The report enclosed below was one I wrote after it had finally dawned on me that there were quite a few of these things called SPDs around. By the time I wrote this report, I had learned that at *least* 200 of them had been written and issued. I guess, though, that I was still too stupid to realize fully that the very people I was sending my reports to were the very people who had created SPDs to begin with. Stupidity is hard to overcome, because one is too stupid to realize that he is stupid, therefore stupidly does nothing about his stupidity, and stupidly goes on being stupid. Which is just stupid. I caught on later, but perhaps too late. Here is the report.

L. RON HUBBARD HCO PL 5 March 1965, Issue 11, "POLICY, SOURCE OF" Jim Morrow and Ray Mithoff have both written and had issued as "policy" a type of illegal, off-policy directive known variously as a "Scientology Policy Directive," or an "SPD." (See attachments A and B.) No such issue has ever been established by any HCO PL. No HCO PL authored by L. Ron Hubbard as contained in the OEC volumes refers to any such issue. In short, it is an illegal and unauthorized type of issue that has been used by the two terminals named above (and possibly others) to set themselves up as SOURCE of Church policy. This HIGH CRIME has been aided and abetted by unknown persons operating under the mantle of the Authority, Verifications and Corrections Unit International, as these issues were both approved there. The fiction of the "SPD" was propagated in the release of the current edition of OEC volumes. In the back of OEC Volume 0, beginning on page 721 is a "List of Types of Issues and Magazines." This list is unattributed as to authorship. On page 729, as part of this list, is the following entry: "Scientology Policy Directive (SPD), its purpose is to provide an issue type for policy for the Church of Scientology, and to distinguish from policy issued by LRH which is issued in HCO PL form. Senior to all administrative issues except HCO PLs and any other issues or advices by LRH. Its distribution is all staff unless otherwise designated. Black ink on blue paper." This definition is in direct and flagrant contravention to HCO PL 5 March 1965, Issue II, "POLICY, SOURCE OF" which states clearly and unambiguously: "If it is not in an HCO Policy Letter, it is not policy." In addition, these two referenced SP Directives set up orders to staff and public. In order to comply with these illegal orders would require the negation of and noncompliance with certain LRH HCO PLs, including but not necessarily limited to: 1. HCO PL 9 August 1972, "SENIORITY OF ORDERS" 2. HCO PL 24 September 1970RA, "ISSUES, TYPES OF" 3. HCO PL 14 June 1965, Issue II, "POLITICS, FREEDOM FROM" This point is actually the subject of separate reports, but needed to be mentioned in this report as well. The McDonald Papers Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers ( 4 ) 7 July 1995 Ace of Spades: Below is a copy of the non-entubulation order. I heard from Stephen Mitchell that it has earned us the appellation of "The Scientology Seven." Note there is NO reference to any HCO PL (read: valid Scientology policy), but only reference to an SP Directive--er, SPD. Laquerre also doesn't say that the Comm Ev was DEMANDED by several of us, and let's it seem that we are being disciplined. The idiot couldn't even get my name right. (Where's my agent when I need him!) This is where OSA first worked the "tax protestor" button into the game, and they have been tromping on it with jackboots ever since in their tireless, fanatical efforts to turn attention away from the actual issue (SPDs and their fraudulent nature), and to stick some sort of false, discrediting lable (sounds like "libel") onto the people who were bringing attention to bear on SPDs. It's actually an insidiously clever application of "Propaganda by Redefinition of Words." They have turned the honorable and praiseworthy legacy of our Founding Fathers into a withering indictment. Isn't that special! I bet Paul Laquerre wishes he had dreamed that up all by himself. But he didn't. Lackeys don't dream. Keep it safe.

When I made the comment about his turning part of the Church into an enforcement arm of the IRS, I didn't have the view that I have now: that the ENTIRE Church is now under the aegis and control of IRS. But what other church has "Tax Enforcement Officers?" And, yes, that is a rhetorical question.

This is the Committee that I actually flew to L.A.,at no little expense, to appear before and present my evidence. And this is the Committee that had not one report, not one witness, not one teeny particle of evidence to support ANY of the allegations against me. (And I flew 2,000 miles for this?) Of course, this is also the Committee which, after hearing all the Interested Parties, was never heard from again. In late December 1995, months after they convened, they were disbanded and a new Committee was seated to rehash what this first one had already gone over (separate document--to follow).

According to data to hand, the above-named individuals have been involved in tax protester activities and in some cases have not filed their own income taxes for years. Data further indicates that Frank Marafino, Ken Kuchenriter and to different degrees the others named have been actively promoting and spreading false and incorrect information to other Scientologists in support of non-payment of taxes. These activites (sic) are direct violations of Scientology Policy Directive 2 May 1994 PERSONAL INCOME TAXES which states: "Until the tax system is changed, a Scientologist who refuses to file a tax return, to pay required income taxes, or to comply with other tax laws, is in violation of the Scientology ethics codes and by his or her unethical conduct is placing himself and the group at risk. Such a person will be ineligible for Church services until the matter is rectified. Anyone promoting to other Scientologists not to pay taxes or file returns or promoting any of the various tax protest schemes, will be subject to discipline under the Scientology justice codes." Ken Kuchenriter has not paid his income taxes in over ten years and Frank Marafino is not paying his income taxes in present time either. Stephen Mitchell does not pay income taxes, is actively involved in tax protestor activities and now is negating Church policy on this matter. The above terminals, as well as Valerie Hastings and Randy McDonald, have all attempted to undermine Church policy on this subject by targeting (sic) Management, the above mentioned Scientology Policy Directive and promoting the idea that it is ok to not pay income taxes. US tax law requires that all U.S. citizens pay their personal income taxes, ref: Scientology Policy Directive May 1994 PERSONAL INCOME TAXES. Per data to hand the above-named individuals have been The McDonald Papers apprised of this issue, yet have continued to question the validity of the issue, to natter about it or non-comply with it. As the violation of the laws of the land is a Scientology Ecclesiastical Ethics Code violation and is not condoned in any way, a Committee of Evidence is being convened to thoroughly investigate the matter and either absolve the interested Parties or find them guilty beyond reasonable doubt. ECCLESIASTICAL CRIMES : 1. PLACING SCIENTOLOGY OR SCIENTOLOGISTS AT 2.

Thanks, Randy The McDonald Papers ( 8 ) 9 September 1995 Ace of Clubs: Well, it looks like I now have four-of-a-kind. Welcome aboard. This is a Knowledge Report I wrote after an awfully strange phone conversation with Matthew Veenker, who at the time I believed to be a curmudgeon and little wanna'-be-Miscavige, swagger-stick-mentality fascist. Later, I came to lower my opinion of him. This report speaks for itself. Thanks for your help. Randy McDonald -------------------------------------------------------------------TO: LRH Comm CC Int FROM: Jon Randall McDonald KNOWLEDGE REPORT cc: Comm Ev Comm Ev IJC Dir I&R; Dir I&R; Chairman CC INT EO 5256 Secretary CC INT EO 5256 CC Int CC Nashville 9 September 1995 Dear Sir: The McDonald Papers This is to reduce to writing the content of our phone conversation on the evening of Friday, 8 September 1995: 1) I informed you that, although I have been told verbally (in a phone message left on my machine on Monday, the 21st of August 1995 by Paul LeQuerre) that I am an Interested Party in a CC Int Committee of Evidence convened by you as Convening Authority, I have never received from CC Int a copy of the Bill of Particulars, nor have I ever been contacted by the Secretary to make any arrangements regarding my testimony. (I've been told that the Bill of Particulars was issued as CC INT EO 5256.) 2) I informed you that I had sent a FAX on 23 August to Paul LeQuerre, with an info copy routed to the Secretary of the Comm Ev, requesting that the Bill of Particulars be Faxed to me (as LeQuerre had promised in his phone message), stating that no one had contacted me to arrange my testimony, and requesting that someone please contact me as soon as possible. (To this date, neither Paul LeQuerre nor the Comm Ev Secretary have responded to that FAX. A copy of it is appended to this FAX.) 3) You requested and got my FAX number, and said that a Bill of Particulars would be Faxed to me that evening. (It is now over 24 hours later, and I still have not received the Bill of Particulars. My FAX is fully operational, as I have received other FAXes in the interim.) 4) You requested and got the phone number that I would be reachable at for the next hour or so, and said that the Secretary would be contacting me. (It is now over 24 hours later, and she has not called. I have received numerous calls and several recorded phone messages in the interim, so there has been no problem with my incoming communication lines that would have prevented anyone from getting through.) 5) I told you that I had been told in a phone conversation with Stephen Mitchell, another Interested Party in this Committee of Evidence, that the Committee had been enjoined to wrap their proceedings up over this weekend. You affirmed that this was true. 6) I told you that I was very surprised to hear this, as no one from the Committee had contacted me at all, and I live some 2,000 miles away. No appearance by me had been scheduled; no arrangements had been made to secure my evidence or testimony; I had been given no opportunity to make travel arrangements; I had been given no opportunity to secure the finances needed for such a trip; I had been given no opportunity to arrange for any time off of my work that such a trip might require; I had not even been provided with a Bill of Particulars so that I might know and prepare to answer whatever charges have been leveled against me. 7) I asked you if I was actually going to be called upon and expected to suddenly appear in Los Angeles on scant hours notice, and you said, yes, that was the case. You went on to say that IJC had ruled that any testimony would have to be in person, and that the information I had to give and my pleas to the charges could not be taken by phone and/or FAX: that it was not "included in the The McDonald Papers policy." You again said the Secretary would be contacting me, and that I would receive the Bill of Particulars. (It is now 1:37 a.m. Sunday morning, 10 September, and there still has been no Bill of Particulars sent, still has been no phone call from the Secretary or any other representative of the Committee.) You then went on to say that I "could always just refuse to appear." 8) I told you that I had absolutely no intention whatsoever of refusing to appear. I told you I was not only willing, but quite eager to participate in this Committee of Evidence, and to answer all charges against me. I told you that it would place an egregious financial and logistical burden on me and my family if I were suddenly required to travel to L.A. with the kind of ridiculously short notice that was being discussed, but that I would do whatever was necessary. 9) I asked you if it was true that you had told Stephen Mitchell in a phone conversation that I had written some "very enturbulative reports" that were "not accurate." You said that you had not told Stephen Mitchell that my reports were "not accurate." You then went on to tell me that my reports were "rabidly critical." Without regard to the validity of that assessment, I asked you if that was an offense under the Scientology Justice Codes. You said, no, but that you were very highly trained, and then implied that my reports were indicative of overts and withholds. 10) I again asked you about what you had told Stephen Mitchell. I told you that he said he had asked you very directly about my reports: "Are they accurate?" And he said that you had replied very directly, "No, they aren't." 11) You again denied that you ever said that in that manner; you asserted that you had merely given him your opinion about my reports being inaccurate, and that you had made it clear to him that it was merely your opinion. 12) I then asked you several times what, specifically, you felt, in your opinion, was inaccurate in any of my reports. I failed, actually, to ever get that question answered, because you then changed the subject and criticized the routing I put on the reports, without ever addressing the accuracy of the facts contained in the reports. I told you I had sent the reports to responsible officers of the Church that I felt should be informed of the data contained in the reports. I conceded the fact that perhaps I may have been guilty of misrouting, and asked if that were an actionable offense in the Scientology Justice Codes. You then mentioned a charge of "Spreading destructive rumours about senior Scientologists..." but didn't really complete the thought, and said I would get the Bill of Particulars, and would then find out exactly what I was being charged with, and that I needed to take this up with the Committee. 13. You again asserted that the Bill of Particulars would be forthcoming, and that the Secretary of the Committee would be contacting me to arrange my testimony. 14. I expressed my sincere hope that you would take a fresh and unbiased look at my reports, with a view not to the routing, but to The McDonald Papers the actual facts (the time, place, form, and events) that were contained in the reports. And I expressed to you my sincere belief that if the facts contained in my reports were true (as I understand them to be) then we all have a great deal of responsibility to shoulder in bringing all the facts to light. The above is an outline of the salient facts of our phone conversation, based on my notes taken at the time and my fresh recollection. If your recollection of any part of the conversation differs from this description, I invite you to amend this write-up with notes to correct any inaccuracies from your viewpoint. I have made all arrangements to secure a flight to L.A. as soon as I know when and where I am to appear before the Committee. It is vitally important to the economic survival of me and my family that I not be away from my work for any protracted period of time, as I am the sole regularly-earning provider for my wife and four children. As my work is as a freelance artist, and as I have worked for 10 months to build up and secure my position with several agencies here, and as my practice is wholly dependent on my ready availability to perform the work for these agencies in a timely manner under extreme deadline pressure, my absence for more than even a few days would severely jeopardize my position and income. I trust the Committee will understand this, and will exercise a due and rational regard for my circumstances in making their arrangements with me for my appearance. In addition to the above, I would like to have entered into the record of the Committee of Evidence the following facts: 1) I have not received any copies of any reports on me at all. 2) I have neither seen nor heard any shred or particle of evidence of any allegation against me. 3) In July of this year I suddenly discovered that my name had been put on a non-enturbulation order, when I had had NO prior contact from any Ethics Officer or anyone in the Church about any problem with anything I was doing or not doing, and with NO ethics gradient applied to any real or imagined wrongdoing on my part. 4) The phone conversation I had with you left me with the clear and surprising impression that I am regarded with extreme prejudice because I had the temerity to write a High Crime report on an august personage within the hierarchy of the Church. I wish to go on record as saying unequivocally that I stand 100% behind the facts contained in my reports, and I assert that they are facts exactly as I know them to be, or as they were presented to me by parties who I named, with the time, place, form, and event clearly represented as accurately as possible from my records and recollections. The fact that you or anyone could even remotely associate those reports with "Spreading malicious rumors..." is beyond my comprehension, as an integral part of the definition of rumor is that it is "of uncertain origin." In addition, most dictionaries add that rumors are not based on any evidence, and are circulated by word of mouth, gossip. There is not the least uncertainty about the origins of any of the facts contained in my reports. I clearly reported the exact sources The McDonald Papers of the data contained therein, and I clearly signed my own name to the reports. 5) If the charges against me are related to my having written those reports, of course it is obvious that this is in clear violation of policy regarding the disciplining of someone for the fact of having written a report. But regardless of that, I stand by the data in my reports, and defy anyone to prove any part of those reports false. My personal integrity is far more important to me than my immediate life, and personal integrity consists of observing what one observes and saying what one observes. That is what I have done in my reports, and damn the consequences. 6) If the sitting Committee is, in fact, a fact-finding body, and if any of the charges against me are related to those reports, then it is incumbent upon the Committee to FIND OUT THE FACTS of those reports, and establish with finality whether they are true or false. If they are false, then I deserve anything I get. If they are true, then this needs to be clearly stated in the FINDINGS in order for justice to be done, and to RUN OUT THE GROUP ENGRAMS. The facts that MUST be established are these: A) IS the agreement with the IRS a SECRET agreement? (Unknownness, group unconsciousness, hidden data line, mysterious particles, not-is-ness, entered arbitraries, omitted data, connection and adherence to a group demonstrably guilty of suppressive acts.) B) IF it IS secret, was it, in fact, the desire of BOTH parties to keep it secret? C) DID Jim Morrow, the Tax Compliance Officer at OSA Int, TELL me the things I put in the report, or didn't he? If he DIDN'T tell me those things, then he should be able to tell the Committee point blank and under oath that he never said them, that the agreement is NOT secret, and he should be able to provide a copy to PROVE that it isn't secret, and so settle the matter, once and for all, that I am a bald-faced liar who makes up wild, unfounded stories, and who commits my lies to written reports, and who then sends those wild, trumped-up lies to all the Ethics Officers and LRH Comms and senior Ethics terminals so I can just be summarily declared. D) ARE "Scientology Policy Directives" legal issues, and DO they constitute "policy" for the Church? If so, what of LRH's statement: "If it is not in an HCO Policy Letter, it is not policy?" If so, WHAT LRH HCO PL ESTABLISHES THEM? If not, WHO is trying to usurp the position of LRH as SOURCE? (Wrong Source, Added Falsehood, Altered Importance, introduction of arbitraries, negation of policy.) I welcome the opportunity to get to the actual facts regarding these issues, and to have them fully communicated openly and honestly. I have gone to some lengths to arrange for my transportation to L.A. and for a place to stay there for a brief time, and am standing by to go as soon as someone contacts me to let me know when and where I am to appear. I WILL be there. Eagerly. Regards, The McDonald Papers Jon Randall McDonald P.S. Please note my actual name. I understand the source of alter-is, so it didn't surprise me to see it incorrect on the non-Enturbulation order, but I would appreciate it if in the Findings and Recommendations I could at least have my full name presented correctly. "Randy" is an affectionate nickname that is reserved for use by my close friends. The McDonald Papers ( 9 ) 30 September 1995 Elf: Yet another broken promise of things to be sent to me. It gets old. Anyway, I faxed this on the day of my departure for the L.A. Comm Ev. And this after I had *vowed* never to cross the Mississippi going west again. Damn! I ought to learn.

Regards, Jon The McDonald Papers ( 10 ) 30 September 1995 Darwin: By the time I wrote this report to take with me to the L.A. Committee of Evidence, I had finally (duh!) figured out Miscavige's and OSAs tack, operating, as they were, well removed from the scene by piping everything through their stooges at CC Int. I had been entirely perplexed about why they continued to trump up these idiotic, false allegations of "tax protester" activities, when neither I, nor any of the few "Scientology Seven" who I knew personally were engaged in anything of the kind. Then it dawned on me that the ONLY WEAPON IN THEIR ARSENAL WAS TO DISCREDIT THE SOURCE OF ATTACKS ON SPDS. It was then, it is now, it always will be THE ONLY WEAPON IN THEIR ARSENAL. (I said it before, I quote myself now: 'Duh!) So I decided to set forth my philosophy on the subject and the source of that philosophy. And here it is now. Randy McDonald ----------------------------------------------------------------- MAA CC Int --------------------Randy McDonald cc: LRH Comm CC Int Comm Ev IJC KNOWLEDGE REPORT 30 September 1995 As I have been named as an Interested Party in a Committee of Evidence, and have been accused of "Tax Protester Activities," I am submitting this Knowledge Report on myself to present to the Committee and all concerned a written statement of the exact and only ideas that I embrace, espouse, and disseminate that have to do The McDonald Papers with taxes and their relationship to government and to life. I freely admit to actively disseminating the following ideas, and to applying them in my life as an applied religious philosophy. As I embrace NO other ideas regarding taxes, I can only conclude that the ideas listed herein, and the practice of these concepts in application, are the things I am accused of, and so I felt it important to lay them out exactly, in writing, for the record. The following quotes, then, constitute the entirety of my personal philosophy on the subject of taxes: "Income tax is a suppressive effort to crush individuals and businesses and deprive the state of national gross product." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 25 June 1967 "SCIENTOLOGY ORGS TAX AND BALANCE SHEETS" "Anyone trying to say that inflation is inevitable and income tax vital is simply suppressive or stupid." L. Ron Hubbard Ability Magazine #13, 1966 "ECONOMICS" "Taxes exist only to destroy businesses. Be impudent. Get rich and to hell with them. Governments are just a reactive bank we have to live with for a while." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 28 January 1965 "HOW TO MAINTAIN CREDIT STANDING AND SOLVENCY" "All right, look at your tax collector. When taxes start going up to certain percentages that penalize the company (and worker) and give it an unmanageable burden, make it difficult to service the machinery, make it difficult to introduce new tools and equipment for a new product, etc., why, the tax man starts putting businesses out of business. They've been doing that in America and are nearly finished with the job in England. ... "Ideally, a company should work itself out of debt, not into it. But because of suppressive, penalizing tax percentages and bank interest rates, a company works itself into debt so one could say that the tax collector is in collusion with the banker in these sectors. ... "There is another twist to this. What do governments (and sometimes even banks) do with these tax collections and other pounds of flesh gouged from the carcasses of people trying to get on with their jobs? They hand them out as 'foreign aid,' and dole, welfare and other activities designed to degrade. ... "Simple. So simple. It's too simple for these idiots not to The McDonald Papers be able to con everybody in the society into believing that it's very complex. But they don't want the public to understand this because they've got a racket going and they know it's a racket. ..." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 2 September 1982 "AND THAT IS BANKING" "Governments, the tax man, bankers and even accountants on Earth (and in most space civilizations as well) operate on the principle that they are there to take money from activities for their own use. It is to be noted that robbers have the same idea. ... "...The head of the Federal Reserve-judging by his financial 'practices'-...probably rubs his hands and chortles all night at the thought of people in rags. And I am sure that an IRS man is never happier than when he has just got through bankrupting a business." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 3 September 1982 "DEPUTY FBO FOR MARKETING OF ORG RESOURCES FOR EXCHANGE (D/FBO MORE) PURPOSE" "The unhappiness and tumult in current society is oddly current with the Keynesian economic theory of creating want. It's a silly theory and has lately become to be abandoned. But it was in vogue forty years or more, as I recall. It produced the 'welfare era' of the psychiatrist and the total slavery of the taxpayer!" L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 6 July 1970 "IRRATIONALITY" "Oddly enough one of the best ways to detect a suppressive person is that he or she stamps on up statistics and condones or rewards down statistics. It makes an SP very happy for everyone to starve to death, for the good worker to be shattered and the bad worker patted on the back. "Draw your own conclusions as to whether or not Western governments (or welfare states) became at last suppressives. For they used the law used by suppressives: If you reward nonproduction you get nonproduction. ... "The cause of the Great Depression of the 1920s and 1930s in the US and England...was income tax and government interference with companies... . "Income tax so penalized management, making it unrewarded, and company law so hampered financing that it ceased to be The McDonald Papers really worthwhile to run companies and management quit. ... "In income tax, the more a worker makes the more hours of his workweek are taxed away from him. Eventually he is no longer working for his reward. He is working for no pay. If he got up to 50 pounds a week the proportion of his pay (penalty) might go as high as half. Therefore people tend to refuse higher pay (up statistics), it has a penalty that is too great. On the other hand a totally indigent nonworking person is paid well just to loaf. The up statistic person cannot hire any small services to help his own prosperity as he is already paying it via the government to somebody who doesn't work." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 6 March 1966, Issue 1 "REWARDS AND PENALTIES-HOW TO HANDLE PERSONNEL AND ETHICS MATTERS" "To the degree that England and the US tax the individual and seek to govern him they will dwindle in size." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 28 February 1966 "DANGER CONDITION DATA WHY ORGANIZATIONS REMAIN SMALL" "First consider a group which takes in money but does not deliver anything in exchange. This is called rip-off. It is the 'exchange' condition of robbers, tax men, governments and other criminal elements." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 10 September 1982 "EXCHANGE, ORG INCOME AND STAFF PAY" "One of the highest crimes you could pull in that Marcabian society, probably even today, is income tax; you make one comma wrong and it's 'dead forever.' Sounds weird, doesn't it? So they got everybody paying income tax-awfully restimulative. Probably nothing much wrong with income tax if it were administered as a tax, but it isn't; it's administered as a punishment, even on this planet today. L. Ron Hubbard Lecture of 6 August 1963, "Auditing Comm Cycles" "...(T)he FOREMOST reason for a failing national prosperity and inflation is a personal income tax agency. This runs a vicious can't-have on every citizen and makes them PTS to the government. Individuals even begin to run a can't-have on themselves and do not produce. This IS the cause of a failing national economy." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 12 May 1972R The McDonald Papers "PTS PERSONNEL AND FINANCE" "Government organized and conducted solely for self-interested individuals and groups gives the society a short life span. This imperils the survival of everyone in the land; it even imperils those who attempt it. History is full of such governmental deaths. "Opposition to such governments usually just brings on more violence. "But one can raise his voice in caution when such abuses are abroad. And one need not actively support such a government; doing nothing illegal, it is yet possible, by simply withdrawing one's cooperation, to bring about an eventual reform." L. Ron Hubbard "The Way to Happiness" "To a large degree the society of Earth requires, as part of its structure, names and the means to identify. The state finds itself very satisfied whenever it increases its ability to readily identify its citizenry, and will resort to almost any pretext to collect the fingerprint s and dossier of one and all. "Identity is such a liability and is so thoroughly MEST that individuality is really not possible in the presence of sharply defined identity." L. Ron Hubbard "Scientology 8-8008" "We cannot afford to deny Scientologists that basic freedom that is granted to everyone else: the right to choose whom one wishes to communicate with or not communicate with. It's bad enough that there are governments trying, through the use of force, to prevent people from disconnecting from them... ." L. Ron Hubbard HCO B 10 September 1983 "PTSness AND DISCONNECTION" All of my activities regarding taxes are governed by the standard practice of these maxims and stable data, quoted from the scripture of the religious philosophy to which I subscribe. Any report to the contrary is a false report. (NOTE: Quotes from "The Way to Happiness" are not part of any religious doctrine, but were written by L. Ron Hubbard, and are embraced as part of my personal philosophy.) Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers The McDonald Papers ( 11 ) 17 December 1995 Ace of Hearts: My, my, my. It only took FOUR MONTHS, from the time he convened the first Committee of Evidence, for it to suddenly dawn on Matthew Veenker that the committee must be taking longer than the 7 days he gave them in which to hold their hearings and to submit the Findings and Recommendations. But, bless his heart, he *did* realize it, and immediately did something about it. It must have been the Christmas spirit that moved him, or something. OR! Could it be (perish the thought) that this original committee could not be made to falsely find us all guilty (despite no evidence), no matter HOW many times Veenker sent their F&Rs; up through OSA to DM, and had them SLAMMED back down to him as a "reject" with orders to get that damned committee to declare us all, and no matter HOW many times he told them to meet again and rework their F&Rs; so we looked like Really Bad People? Could it be? Could *that* be why it took FOUR MONTHS for him to suddenly decide to do something? Perish the thought. I mean, he SAYS they didn't submit any F&Rs;, and we all know he wouldn't lie for anything in God's green earth, would he? Well, regardless, NOTE ONE THING: IN THIS CC INT EO THERE IS NOT ONE SINGLE MENTION OF AN SPD! I consider this a major concession on the part of these slugs. They KNOW that SPDs are the real issue here, and now even THEY don't mention them, trying even harder to get the entire question of SPDs completely out of the picture. And, believe me, the committee that is disbanded by this issue also knew that SPDs were the real issue by the time they had finished hearing testimony. No wonder they had to be deep-sixed. Hang on to this.

The Committee members have taken four months to investigate the matter without resolving it or submitting their findings and recommendations. The Committee of Evidence was convened to 1nvestigate allegations that the Interested Parties have committed ecclesiastical offenses by refusing to adhere to legal requirements to pay income tax, promoting to other Scientologists to commit similar acts, and meeting with other Scientologists to discuss their disagreements with Church management efforts to encourage parishioners to adhere to ethical standards of conduct in this matter. If the Interested Parties are actually engaging in these alleged activities, it violates Precept 9 of The Way To Happiness, FLAG ORDER "REGULATIONS AND LAWS, ADHERENCE TO", HCO PL "SCIENTOLOGY ORGS TAX AND BALANCE SHEETS" and HCO PL "INCOME TAX REFORM", wherein LRH lays out the ecclesiastical importance of adhering to legal requirements, and also gives comprehensive and lawful solutions for improving taxation systems.

If you consider a ventiloquist's dummy responsible for his actions, you could kind of figure, maybe, that Veenker was, well, sort of, after a fashion, in a manner of speaking, more or less responsible.

More than two months (64 days) have passed since this be-braided brickbrain seated a second committee (who STILL haven't produced published Findings and Recommendations), and a full 200 DAYS have passed since the original Bill of Particulars. This is Justice. So I sent this notice to let him know. I put the words "DAY 200" in 113-pt. Stencil type diagonally across the page, reversing out of a black band. It was all a waste of good paper and toner, but I enjoyed it. I am well into my exhaustive report on David Miscavige, which tells the real story of why this travesty of justice is going on, dragging out for over six months, of why we have an illegal and ridiculous "non-enturbulation order" left hanging over our heads indefinitely, of why our church is no longer a safe haven of succor and good fellowship. Sometimes I have to walk outside on the patio late at night and stare at the stars and breathe deeply of the cool, clean Tennessee air, just to get away from the stench that seems to waft up from the documents I now have to hand, the evidence of what is really going on out in the Southern California desert and down on Hollywood Boulevard. It stinks, Ace. It is the "rank miasma" that Poe so eloquently described. No wonder the Matthew Veenkers of this world get to parade around as toy soldiers and lord their idiocy over the lives and fortunes of caring people. No wonder. You will learn more anon. I am about to put the safety and well-being of myself and my family on the line to get this story told, because it has to be told. I am not happy about it. I wonder sometimes, in the wee hours, bent over my computer, how and why it has fallen to me to do. Hell, I'd rather be playing my guitar or taking my kids fishing. I'll shut up now.

David Miscavige Chairman of the Board, Religious Technology Center HIGH CRIME REPORT SUPPRESSIVE PERSON DECLARE Includes Evidence of: Interstate and International Felony Fraud Felony Extortion * Squirrelling Alter-Is of LRH Tech Treason, Lies, and Treachery against Scientologists Other Suppressive Acts "There are two uses (violently opposed to each other) to which Scn orgs can be put. They are: "1. To forward the advance of self and all dynamics toward total survival. "2. To use the great power and control of an org over others to defend oneself. "When a decent being goes to work in an org he uses 1. "When a suppressive goes to work in an org he uses 2. ..." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 1 October 1967, Admin Know-How--Uses of Orgs "The responsibilities assumed by a 1.1 are surface manifestations only. The individual may seem to be carrying out a program and may seem to be useful, but the end results of all these programs will be disastrous, since underneath the veneer so many crosscurrents and cabals exist that chaos will result. A The McDonald Papers 1.1 ...may make an excellent show and be very convincing, but the show he is making and the conviction he seeks to implant in others are not the things intended, and a glance below the surface will discover an entirely different program aimed solely toward malicious destruction." L. Ron Hubbard from "Science of Survival," Book One, Chapter Twenty-four David Miscavige is charged with Felony Fraud and the suppression of Scientology and Scientologists. As is detailed in this report, he is demonstrably guilty of suppressive acts, and is hereby declared a Suppressive Person. By his own admission (contained later in this report), his modus operandi is lying and treachery, and he has used these tactics to establish and protect his own position while getting rid of staff members and Scientologists who opposed him. Miscavige, as evidenced in this report, has been engaged in a covert but methodical campaign to alter, alloy, negate, and even eradicate parts of LRH's technology, then sell the alter-ised versions to staff and public while he uses his position over Scientology and Scientologists to assert the "purity" of the tech. This is a High Crime and Suppressive Act. It is also Felony Corporate and Trademark Fraud involving millions of dollars; it crosses state lines and utilizes the U.S. mails which makes it a federal offense; it crosses international boundaries which makes Miscavige and any accomplices international criminals. Additionally, under the direction of David Miscavige and with his full knowledge, the RTC's Authorization, Verification and Correction division (AVC), has, for years, been party to the authorization and publication of squirrel administrative issues called "Scientology Policy Directives" (SPDs). As is proven in this report, these are misrepresented as "policy" for churches of Scientology, and this corporate Misrepresentation has been used for Felony Fraud and Felony Extortion against Scientology management, staff, public, and organizations, and is a High Crime and Suppressive Act. Miscavige has also engineered a secret, inches-thick agreement with a suppressive group: IRS. Proclaiming this a "win," he in fact has arranged things so that Operating Thetans now must report in annually to a suppressive group and provide this group with information about their identity, their whereabouts, their means of livelihood, their income, their relatives, etc. If they don't report in, they are debarred from further progress on the Bridge. Using SPDs, Miscavige has had a special post, Tax Compliance Officer, set up to enforce this on Scientologists. This not only is a High Crime and Suppressive Act, it is one of the most insidious traps ever devised since LRH first offered a way out. The trick: deny power of choice, enforce connection and enslavement to a suppressive group, and make that a "PREREQUISITE" to total freedom. EVIDENCE OF FELONY FRAUD: AUTHORIZATION OF ALTERED LRH MATERIALS As the head of RTC, Miscavige has defrauded the public and staffs The McDonald Papers out of millions of dollars by approving and overseeing the promotion and sales of works, carrying the trademarks of LRH and Scientology, that are proclaimed by him as being "100% pure, unadulterated" LRH tech, knowing that the works have been cut, rewritten, edited, and altered. Miscavige's own writings stand as testament to his knowledge of the condition of published materials: "RTC... passes any LRH issue, pack or book before issuance so as to ensure it is authentic and that the writings are one hundred percent Source. In the case of published or translated LRH works, RTC checks every word to verify they are completely faithful to the original LRH manuscripts. Thus, when you see that an item has been authorized by RTC, you can have confidence in it." David Miscavige Chairman of the Board, Religious Technology Center But here are a few examples of the truth: A. Entire paragraphs have been carefully and seamlessly edited out of the current edition of LRH's Study Tapes in a way such that the listener has no knowledge that they are gone unless he does a side-by-side comparison to an unedited set of tapes. B. LRH's famous quote, "By my own creed a being is only as valuable as he can serve others," has been obliterated from Miscavige's brand of Scientology. It was contained in HCO PL 18 December 1961, Standing Orders. It is not in the "new" OEC volumes. C. HCO PL 13 March 1969, entitled "ADDITION TO HCO POL LTR OF 23 JUNE 1967 'POLICIES ON PHYSICAL HEALING, INSANITY AND POTENTIAL TROUBLE SOURCES'--POTENTIAL TROUBLE SOURCES (b)" has disappeared. D. The "Life Improvement" courses, plus the "Scientology Handbook" (and the many booklets generated from its contents) contain altered and edited LRH tech mixed in with material written by unknown others. Advertised as "based on the works of L. Ron Hubbard," these are an undifferentiated mish-mash of LRH's writings and the writings of others. They do not reference the actual Source issues that they have been "based on," making a comparison to Source difficult at best. This serves to dilute and disperse Source. Below is but one example. HERE IS THE ORIGINAL LRH QUOTE "First consider a group which takes in money but does not deliver anything in exchange. This is called rip-off.It is the 'exchange' condition of robbers, tax men, governments and other criminal elements." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 10 September 1982, Exchange, Org Income and Staff Pay HERE IS THE "LIFE IMPROVEMENT COURSE" VERSION "First consider a group which takes in money but does not deliver anything in exchange. This is called rip-off. It is the 'exchange' condition of robbers, most tax men, many governments and criminal elements." The McDonald Papers from The Dynamics of Money course workbook E. In the Hubbard College of Administration, LRH tapes are being used on at least one course which have been edited such that, e.g., where LRH said "p.c." in the original lecture, he now says the word "person." These edits, deletions, eradications, and adulterations of LRH's tech are, every one, High Crimes and Suppressive Acts. All of this tampering is a flagrant violation of Keeping Scientology Working, and is expressly forbidden in many of LRH's HCO PLs--which constitute a promise to people who purchase Scientology materials and services that what they are getting is straight LRH: "All materials released, used or sold must be straight Scientology as given in the writings or lectures of LRH. ... "Books may not be advertised for sale or the advertisement paid for from the HCO Book fund except LRH books. ..." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 4 March 1965, Issue II, Technical and Policy Distribution "Issues of materials of mine under other names without credit is the most destructive action that can be undertaken as it splinters the whole of Scientology." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 21 November 1962, Re-Issue of Materials "The public wants Scientology Ron's brand and they don't buy other brands." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 27 December 1963, The "Magic" of Good Management "The field or public must not be led to believe that I have written or issued things I have not." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 21 June 1959, Signatures on Bulletins, Policies and Sec Eds These assurances, an integral and vital part of Scientology, are held sacred and inviolable by Scientologists. Selling anything else to the buying public using LRH's name and his trademarks is Felony Fraud. But this is not the only avenue for fraud used by Miscavige. FELONY FRAUD AND EXTORTION: SP DIRECTIVES Scientology Policy Directives (SPDs) now number over two hundred. None were authored by LRH, and no such issue is mentioned by LRH in any HCO PL. Under Miscavige's supervision, though, SPD's are approved for issue by RTC's AVC division. "I know what a group of people will do and how insane they will go in accepting unworkable 'technology.' By actual record The McDonald Papers the percentages are about twenty to 100,000 that a group of human beings will dream up bad technology to destroy good technology." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 7 February 1965, Keeping Scientology Working Just to work that out mathematically, this means that RTC's AVC--if they wanted to have any hope at all that the 200+ SPDs already approved by them weren't simply bad technology dreamed up to destroy good technology--would have had to review OVER 1,000,000 submissions to come up with the current number of SPDs. Authors of these issues are often identified by titles instead of their names so there is no source. And yet, with Miscavige's approval, SPDs have been issued and enforced under the fraudulent claim that they are policy for Churches. This claim (by an unidentified "source") can be found in the back of the current edition of OEC volume 0 as follows: "Scientology Policy Directive (SPD), its purpose is to provide an issue type for policy for the Church of Scientology, and to distinguish from policy issued by LRH which is issued in HCO PL form. Senior to all administrative issues except HCO PLs and any other issues or advices by LRH. Its distribution is all staff unless otherwise designated. Black ink on blue paper." This seeks to negate all of the following LRH references: "If it is not in an HCO Policy Letter, it is not policy." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 5 March 1965, Issue II, Policy, Source Of "If it isn't in an HCOB or an HCO Pol Ltr or recorded on tape in my voice, it isn't tech or policy." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 16 April AD 15, The "Hidden Data Line" "A 'policy letter' is not Scientology org policy unless written or authorized by L. Ron Hubbard and passed as a resolution or covered by blanket resolution of the International Board and issued or published by an HCO. It is not policy if any of those steps are missing." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 5 March 1965, Issue II, Policy, Source Of "STANDARD ADMIN means the usual 'on-policy' procedure applied. "'Squirrel admin' means the departure or alteration of standard admin. The use of the word 'squirrel' is long standing because squirrels in their little cages go 'round and 'round and get nowhere and they are also, a bad pun, 'nutty,' meaning a bit crazy. The McDonald Papers "The source of STANDARD ADMIN is an HCO Policy Letter. "The main source of 'squirrel admin' is simply ignorance of PL procedure or the neglect of reading and applying it--as simple as that." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 4 June 1971, Standard Admin The above references unequivocally, unquestionably, incontestably SLAM THE DOOR ON any possibility of SPDs being "policy," as is claimed. The outpoint is WRONG SOURCE. Yet Miscavige and AVC and others have been made fully aware, in several reports, of this glaring violation of LRH's policy, and no action has been taken to correct it. On the contrary, there have been instances where staff in OSA (a non-Source entity established by SPDs) have been sent to investigate the report writers. Then squirrel "ethics/justice" actions have been used in an effort to shut the report writers up. One such suppressive "justice" action is a Committee of Evidence that, so far, has been going on for over 200 days. "...If correctly reported outnesses that threaten the org are NOT corrected then one assumes that suppression exists. ... "It occasionally happens that it is someone high up in the org. It sometimes happens his (the Ethics Officer's) seniors or the EC scold him for daring to report on things or to them. Then he knows the suppression is high up... . L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 7 December 1969, Ethics, the Design Of And so none of this gets corrected. And so this Felony Fraud is perpetrated on the public: WHAT THE PUBLIC BELIEVES (AND PAYS TO SUPPORT WITH DONATIONS) TO BE STANDARD, ON-POLICY, ON-SOURCE ORGANIZATIONS, EACH OF THEM CARRYING THE TRADEMARKS OF LRH, ARE ACTUALLY BEING RUN OFF OF SQUIRREL SP DIRECTIVES (WRITTEN BY ANONYMOUS OTHERS), MANY OF WHICH DIRECTLY CONTRADICT LRH POLICY. Here are just a few examples of SPDs that attempt to negate LRH's tech: 1. WHAT THE SPD SAYS: "There is no practice of 'disconnection' allowed in the Church of Scientology." Watchdog Committee SPD #28, SUPPRESSIVE ACT... WHAT LRH SAYS: "The bare fact is that disconnection is a vital tool in handling PTSness and can be very effective when used correctly. ... "The technology of disconnection is essential in the handling of potential trouble sources. It can and has saved lives and untold trouble and upset. It must be preserved and used correctly." The McDonald Papers L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 10 September 1982, DISCONNECTION 2. WHAT THE SPD SAYS: "Course Completion. 2000 points." Author Unknown SPD 6 August 1990, THE STANDARD STUDENT POINTS SYSTEM WHAT LRH SAYS: "Course Completion. ... 200 points." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 18 April 1981, THE STANDARD STUDENT POINTS SYSTEM The fraud is compounded by the fact that SPDs, with few exceptions, are virtually invisible to the public. They are not available for purchase in a bookstore, they are not available on any course. They are a hidden data line, directly in contravention to LRH: "There is no hidden data line. "...Don't for heaven's sake mistake alter-is by somebody as evidence of a hidden line." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 16 April AD 15, THE "HIDDEN DATA LINE" "There is no hidden data line. "...All the data is in HCOBs or Policy Letters or on tape." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 22 November 1967, OUT TECH Just as SPDs are flagrantly off-policy, so are the "reasons" given for their existence flagrantly "reasonable." But the actual motivation behind their existence is found in LRH's tech: "THE NEGATION OF POLICY WITHOUT KNOWING IT AND THE USE OF 'POLICY' TO PREVENT SUCCESS IN SCIENTOLOGY IS THE PRIMARY TOOL OF THE SP AGAINST ORGS." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 7 August 1965, SUPPRESSIVE PERSONS, MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF That is the entire story of SPDs. Masquerading as "policy," they serve their creators in a suppressive attempt to accomplish the following: 1) NEGATION OF LRH's POLICY (THIRD DYNAMIC TECH) BY ADDRESSING ISSUES ALREADY THOROUGHLY COVERED IN HCO PLs, THEREBY ATTEMPTING TO CAST DOUBT ON LRH's ORIGINAL ISSUES ON THE SAME SUBJECT AS BEING SOMEHOW "INCOMPLETE" OR "HE DIDN'T COVER THIS." 2) NEGATION OF LRH'S STANDARD HCO PLS BY CONTRADICTING THEM, THEN ENFORCING THE SPDs OVER THE HCO PLs, USING THE DURESS OF SUPPRESSIVE "ETHICS" ACTIONS (ACTUALLY NO MORE THAN THREAT AND PUNISHMENT) ON THOSE WHO WON'T COMPLY. The McDonald Papers 3) PREVENTING SUCCESS IN SCIENTOLOGY BY INTRODUCING THE MEANS FOR FALSE STATS (e.g., Student Points, referenced above) GIVING MANAGEMENT A FALSE PICTURE. 4) PREVENTING SUCCESS IN SCIENTOLOGY BY CREATING BLOCKS ON THE BRIDGE THAT DEBAR INDIVIDUALS FROM PROGRESSING ON THE BRIDGE BASED ON ARBITRARIES (e.g. SPD 2 May 1994, "PERSONAL INCOME TAXES"). 5) NEGATION OF LRH's STANDARD POLICY BY CREATING "NEW" POSTS AND ORGS (e.g., OSA, IAS, DSAs, etc.) THAT "REPLACE" THE ONES LRH CREATED, "CLOSING" THE LRH-CREATED ORGS (A SUPPRESSIVE ACT), EVEN THOUGH LRH's POLICIES IN THESE AREAS HAVE NEVER BEEN CANCELLED AND SO ARE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT. These are efforts to reduce the force and effectiveness of LRH's Third Dynamic tech, to set up "other tech" and "other sources." Besides being a High Crime and Suppressive Act, the enforcement and application of SPDs constitute Felony Fraud and Felony Extortion. INTERNATIONAL FRAUD, EXTORTION, AND CORPORATE RIP-OFF: THE IAS SPDs have been used to create the IAS. The "International Association of Scientologists" is not mentioned in LRH's policy anywhere. Miscavige has used the IAS to keep an atmosphere of crisis created or inflated, and has thereby extorted from Scientologists millions of dollars in donations "to save Scientology." This Felony Fraud and Felony Extortion has been possible only through the enforcement of SPDs and the negation of LRH policy. The IAS has been used globally to promote "the dangerous environment," and, in the process, to SIPHON OFF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT SHOULD HAVE GONE TO ORGS FOR LRH BOOKS, COURSES, AND AUDITING. A recent count of "Patrons" ($40,000+ donors) and "Patrons Meritorious" ($100,000+ donors) added up to approximately $75 million in donations to the IAS. This does not account for $5,000+ donors or annual and lifetime memberships. The corporate crime and fraud is: DIVERTING MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN FUNDS THAT SHOULD HAVE GONE DIRECTLY TO THE VARIOUS SCIENTOLOGY ORGS--IN EXCHANGE FOR VALUABLE SCIENTOLOGY SERVICES AND PRODUCTS--AND WHICH WOULD HAVE HELPED THOSE ORGS IN THEIR OWN PROMOTION AND EXPANSION. Instead, these millions have gone to the IAS, driven there by fear-tactics of "we're going to lose Scientology if you don't." Miscavige has even arranged that ORG STAFF AND MAILING LISTS AND LINES ARE USED TO COLLECT THE MONEY AND PASS IT ON TO IAS. The successful operation of this international fraud requires that the following vital information be suppressed (OMITTED DATA). OMITTED: LRH already had, in policy, a completely workable way to handle threats to Scientology that was BASED ON A PERCENTAGE OF THE DONATIONS MADE TO SCIENTOLOGY ORGS AND MISSIONS FOR MEMBERSHIPS AND The McDonald Papers SCIENTOLOGY SERVICES, THEREBY ENSURING THAT ORGS WERE SOLVENT AND EXPANDING AND PEOPLE WERE GOING FREE WHILE ANY ATTACKS WERE ALSO HANDLED. OMITTED: the creation of IAS and the enforcement of the SPDs that have brought it into being would, if believed, have the effect of negating all of LRH's policy about the HASI (Hubbard Association of Scientologists International), the on-Source group created by LRH. Yet none of LRH's policies on the HASI are cancelled and so all are still in force. OMITTED: in the OEC, there are 792 REFERENCES BY LRH TO THE HASI, AND NOT ONE SINGLE MENTION ANYWHERE BY LRH OF "IAS." OMITTED: the creation of this specious group (IAS) as a "replacement" for the HASI was, in part, a suppressive effort to REMOVE THE NAME "HUBBARD" FROM THE NAME OF THE INTERNATIONAL GROUP OF SCIENTOLOGISTS. OMITTED: the "phasing out" of the HASI would invalidate ALL EXISTING CERTIFICATES HELD BY SCIENTOLOGISTS ANYWHERE EXCEPT FOR LIFETIME HASI MEMBERS. Per HCO PL 30 July 1962, certification requirements include "International Membership with HASI in force." This policy has not been cancelled, and so is, itself, still fully in force. OMITTED: IAS was set up as an elitist system based on wealth. This built-in attempt to negate LRH's intention and assurance that Scientology is the one clique, complete with a caste method of exclusion is an policy on inclusion, and his game where everybody wins. OMITTED: creation of IAS drove the price of an Annual Membership up almost 10 times over the HASI price--from $35.00 to $300.00. And it drove the Lifetime Membership price up 26 TIMES THE HASI PRICE--from $75.00 to $2,000.00! So the IAS has been used to draw millions of dollars from Scientologists' bank accounts WITH NO TANGIBLE, DIRECT SERVICE OR PRODUCT GIVEN IN EXCHANGE--only a promise from Miscavige of keeping Scientology "pure" and "saving and protecting Scientology." And with what result? Here are some actual court rulings in recent cases. First a ruling in a case brought by RTC against David Mayo and company--declared SPs: "Plaintiffs (RTC, et. al.) have abused the federal court system by using it, inter alia, to destroy their opponents, rather than to resolve an actual dispute over trademark law or any other legal matter. This constitutes 'extraordinary, malicious, wanton and oppressive conduct.' As such, this case qualifies as an 'exceptional case' and fees should be awarded pursuant to the Lanham Act. ... "IT IS ORDERED THAT plaintiffs' motion to defer ruling on the motion for attorneys fees is DENIED. IT US FURTHER ORDERED THAT defendants motion for attorneys' fees is GRANTED and plaintiffs (RTC, et. al.) are to pay defendants (Mayo, et. al.) 2.9 million dollars for attorneys' fees. "IT IS SO ORDERED. The McDonald Papers "January 20, 1993 "JAMES G. KOLTS, U.S. Special Master "UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT, "CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA" And just this February, in a case against Larry Wollersheim--an avowed enemy: "...Among its other litigation strategies, the Church has filed two non-meritorious federal court actions as well as this one. ...The Church has filed numerous appeals in state and federal courts and has prolonged Wollersheim's 1980 lawsuit for 15 years. When the litigation actions of the Church are analyzed in the light of the entire litigation history between the parties it appears the instant lawsuit was brought by the Church against Wollersheim: (a) in retaliation for his 1980 lawsuit against the Church; (b) to punish him economically for bringing that lawsuit, and (c) to obliterate the value of any victories over the Church by forcing him to abandon his efforts to recover the damages awarded in the prior action by making it too costly to do so.... "The Church argues that it has every right to exhaust its legal remedies, including appeal rights. We agree. However, when a litigant continuously and unsuccessfully uses the litigation process in filing unmeritorious motions, appeals and lawsuits, such actions have constitutional implications which may be reviewed on a motion under section 425.16. "DISPOSITION "Judgment of dismissal and judgment awarding attorney fees are affirmed. Wollersheim is awarded costs and attorney fees on appeal. The matter is remanded to the trial court to determine the amount thereof. "Aldrich, J. "Second Appellate District, Division Three "Super. Ct. No. BC074815" While these battles are being lost in the courts, one of the biggest PR flaps in the history of Scientology has been raging on the Internet as a result of Gestapo-like tactics carried out against Internet providers by some of Miscavige's jackboots, both in the U.S. and abroad. These tactics are "justified" in court documents by RTC as being "necessary" because some SPs posted confidential data on the Internet. OMITTED is mention of the PRIOR stupidity (all on Miscavige's watch) that allowed the SPs to get their hands on the confidential data in the first place. In one instance, Miscavige and RTC (responsible for the security of the upper-level data) had allowed upper-course materials to be so insecure that an SP wandered into an Advanced Org, verbally claimed he was "from RTC," and WAS HANDED OVER THE CONFIDENTIAL OT MATERIALS! This is admitted in court documents by Warren McShane, President RTC. In retaliation for the RTC-pressed actions against people on the Internet, some unknown party has now taken these Internet-distributed OT materials AND POSTED THEM ON BUILDINGS AND TRASH CONTAINERS IN DOWNTOWN AMSTERDAM (actual photos of this are on The McDonald Papers file). This is how well Miscavige and RTC have protected the sanctity of LRH's confidential OT tech. This is the net result of the millions paid by Scientologists to IAS. And more money is used to create more flaps, and 'round and 'round the squirrel cage squeaks. Meanwhile, what amount of promotion, staff pay, better quarters, book stocks, and WINS OF PRECLEARS AND PRE-OTs could these millions of dollars have bought? There is a word for all this. It is FRAUD. JUSTICE Chief perpetrator of these crimes is David Miscavige, aided and abetted by others. But the criminals have overlooked an important fact: THESE FRAUDULENT AND EXTORTIVE PRACTICES ARE ACTIONABLE NOT ONLY UNDER SCIENTOLOGY ETHICS AND JUSTICE CODES, BUT UNDER STATE AND FEDERAL CORPORATE AND CRIMINAL FELONY LAW AS WELL. Whatever "legal" foundation Miscavige has established for his current control over the trademarks and materials of Scientology, the abuses of this sacred trust under his hand are unquestionably illegal and have resulted in the most despicable and deplorable deceptions and misrepresentations, in active squirrelling and perversion of LRH's technologies, in international disrepute, in millions of dollars squandered on legal fees and on waging an ineffective media "war" against real or imagined enemies, and in the creation of a sprawling, confused body of false and suppressive "policies" called SPDs. LRH has the handling for this: "The officers of such illegal organizations shall be separately sued on the charge of fraud and charged additionally with criminal fraud for obtaining money, dues, contributions or fees under false pretenses, and where such an organization shall have used the mails the matter shall be reported by the HCO Secretary to postal authorities with a request to arrest the offenders for mail fraud." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 4 July 1959, ACTIONS FOR HCO SECRETARIES FACED WITH ILLEGAL USAGE It is hoped that honest and ethical officers of the Church will get this policy applied and win back LRH's tech and trademarks into clean hands, and let Miscavige and his minions find salvation where they can. BACKGROUND: MISCAVIGE'S OWN TESTIMONY Miscavige's history of lies, deceit, and treachery is well The McDonald Papers documented in his own words, written in a legal declaration. Nothing better illustrates his disregard for truth, honesty, integrity, and honor than his own account, quoted here and annotated, of how he usurped the authority of LRH's loyal and dedicated wife, Mary Sue Hubbard, did all he could to discredit and make less of her (and, in the process, to covertly work at casting doubt through association on LRH), and thereby took over the reins of power, taking advantage of a situation wherein LRH was away from active management lines doing writing and vital research. NOTE: The reader should be quite alert for generalities that are used in Miscavige's narrative. Note, for instance, "our questions" in the first paragraph. The use of "we" and "our" becomes a throbbing theme throughout, but there are more subtle generalities, too, such as "the GO" (stands for "Guardian's Office;" used by Miscavige to make generalized accusations). Here is Miscavige's account: "...In 1981, a Church investigation was begun into the activities of the GO. That investigation was prompted by the existence of a number of civil law suits which had been filed at that time against Church of Scientology of California and Mr. Hubbard, and which the GO was supposed to be responsible for handling. Not only was the GO not handling these suits, the GO, and particularly Mary Sue Hubbard, even refused to answer our questions about the suits because they viewed themselves answerable only to persons within the GO." NOTE: Mary Sue was exactly correct about not being "answerable," according to HCO PLs on the Guardian and Controller posts. These policy letters have never been cancelled. Miscavige's "accusation," then, is really no more and no less than the High Crime of "Pronouncing Scientologists guilty of the standard practice of Scientology." He goes on... "My involvement in the purge of the GO arose from my position at the time, Action Chief CMO International. My duties included directing Church missionaires conducting the investigation of the GO to determine the reasons for the GO's ineffectiveness and why the GO had departed from its original purpose." NOTE: Another generality: "GO's ineffectiveness." attempts," below... And note "Our "...Our attempts to get information were thwarted by Mary Sue Hubbard. She informed us that she did not appreciate our investigation of the GO and that if one were needed she would do it. In March 1981 she cut all of our communication lines to the GO, except through herself. It must be noted that Mary Sue Hubbard believed her position as Controller and as the 'Founder's wife' to be unassailable and beyond reproach by anyone but Mr. Hubbard--who was not around at the time, a fact that she was well aware of. ..." NOTE: The unabashed sarcasm Miscavige uses in referring to the Founder's wife and her position reflects something LRH wrote about: The McDonald Papers "whispering campaigns against LRH and MSH," and the destructive effect such have on orgs. In passing, it is clear that Miscavige, too, was "well aware" that LRH was not around at the time, and so opportunity was at hand... "...In April 1981, in an unprecedented move and without Mary Sue Hubbard's knowledge, I sent a mission to the headquarters of the GO in England--GO World Wide ('GOWW')--to inspect the Legal Bureau UNDER THE GUISE THAT IT HAD BEEN AUTHORIZED BY MARY SUE HUBBARD. What the mission found confirmed our worst suspicions." NOTE: Here Miscavige brags about his deception, his lies, his dishonesty, his treachery (emphasis added in paragraph above). LRH says that many anti-social persons will "freely confess to the most alarming crimes," and that "AN SP WILL SEEK TO UPSET AND GET RID OF THE BEST STAFF MEMBERS." LRH also says: "The 1.1's efforts to nullify are so well veiled and so carefully calculated to annoy that no target is available... . "...From such a person one should never expect an outright frontal attack; the attack will come when one is absent, when one's back is turned, or when one sleeps. ... "From 1.2 down, all forthrightness vanishes, and the most devious and insidious and complex methods are employed to nullify. The individual in this area of the Tone Scale very often has a complete belief in his or her superiority, which is a justification for using the methods he uses. Such people commonly fasten themselves on strong personalities well up the Tone Scale and continue to assert their superiority without ever giving, of course, any demonstration that the superiority exists, until the higher level becomes nullified.... . Here is the snake pit of human behavior, and from this area comes the venom which will gradually destroy any individual or culture. ... ...(D)ata from this level on the tone scale has only two purposes: To wreak the most harm upon others and secure the greatest safety for self. Here we have lies used to hide lies amid the most frantic protestations of honesty and a noisy advertising campaign about the ethics of the speaker. Beneath the facade of honor, honesty, ethics and 'one's sacred word,' one is apt to find a writhing cesspool of vicious and malicious lies calculated to do the greatest possible damage." L. Ron Hubbard from the book "Science of Survival" Back to Miscavige: "...We discovered that the GO had grossly mismanaged the legal affairs with which it had been entrusted, and displayed a disdain for the basic policies by which a Scientology organization is supposed to be guided. ..." NOTE: In HCOB 15 September 1981, The Criminal Mind, LRH says, "THE CRIMINAL ACCUSES OTHERS OF THINGS WHICH HE HIMSELF IS DOING." "...it was made clear that we had no choice but to overthrow the GO and dismiss everyone who had violated Church policy or the The McDonald Papers law...." NOTE: No mention of standard Scientology correction, ethics, or justice actions--Miscavige's solution is the solution of the SP: "Everybody dead so I can be safe." Miscavige goes on to openly describe his suppressive acts in plotting a mutiny against Mary Sue Hubbard--whom LRH had personally posted for life in her position. "...These activities ultimately led to a complete disband of the GO. I gathered a couple of dozen of the most proven Church executives from around the world and briefed them on the criminal and other unethical conduct of the GO. Together, we planned a series of missions to take over the GO, investigate it and reform it thoroughly. On July 13, 1981, a matter of weeks after we had uncovered what was going on, and WITH NO ADVANCE WARNING TO THE GO, a coordinated series of CMO missions were sent out concurrently to take over the GO." NOTE: Emphasis (ALL CAPS) added above; LRH says in "Science of Survival" that "...the 1.1 is a skulking coward who yet contains enough perfidious energy to strike back, but not enough courage ever to give warning." Miscavige goes on to inadvertently give away the fact that his real motive was fear--fear that Mary Sue Hubbard was expanding her power (as though she needed to) through her connection to a project to reorganize the corporate structure of the Church. "...However, there were a number of obstacles to overcome before the termination of the GO could be accomplished. Mary Sue Hubbard was still asserting her authority over the GO from her position as Controller. ...(S)he was ... still very much in control of the GO. At the same time, Mary Sue Hubbard was covertly attempting to expand her power through her friendship with and influence over Laurel Sullivan, a Church staff member who was in charge of a project she referred to as the 'MCCS (Mission Corporate Category Sort-out) project'--the purpose of which was to 'sort out' the corporate structure of Church of Scientology of California. "...Instead of addressing a sensible reorganization of that Church, Sullivan and her GO supporters were making their own plans to establish trusts and for-profit entities which would have placed even greater corporate control of the Church in the hands of Mary Sue Hubbard and other GO executives in a fashion that would have assured the permanency of GO dominance and power." NOTE: A reading of policy makes it clear that it was LRH's intention that Mary Sue and the Guardian's Office be in corporate control of the Church. "...Shortly before the purge of the Guardian's Office, I discussed with Laurel Sullivan various illicit GO activities we had already uncovered. Sullivan was aware of these activities. Sullivan did not agree that the acts the GO had committed were atrocious and that Mary Sue Hubbard and the rest of her criminal group needed to be removed. She insisted that Mary Sue Hubbard remain in power and that at all costs she and the Guardian's The McDonald Papers Office should maintain total control of the organization regardless of the criminal acts exposed by the government and others, in which Sullivan felt the GO was completely justified in (sic) committing." NOTE: Miscavige reveals his feelings of kinship with government agencies. These sympathies have since resulted in a secret agreement with IRS, a suppressive group. "...Upon learning of Laurel Sullivan's alliance with the GO and the plans to reorganize the Church under Mary Sue Hubbard and her GO allies, I removed Sullivan from her position and disbanded the MCCS project altogether. In fact, recently released documents reveal that Laurel Sullivan--who would later become an adverse witness against the church and me--long ago admitted to law enforcement officials that the corporate restructuring of the Church actually implemented, differed entirely from that envisioned in her MCCS project." NOTE: Here Miscavige reveals a pattern that has continued unabated: his solution to opposition is annihilation, summary removal, etc. Also note that Sullivan didn't "admit" that the corporate restructuring that Miscavige subsequently engineered was better or saner or smelled nicer than the MCCS project--just that it "differed entirely." In fact, Miscavige's corporate reorganization has rendered Scientology organizations and Scientologists subject to the IRS, a suppressive group. "...Mary Sue Hubbard was removed from her post ... . I know, because I personally met with her and obtained her resignation. ... At first, Mary Sue Hubbard was not willing to resign. Eventually she did so. Mary Sue Hubbard and the GO, however, did not simply capitulate. "...Within a day of Mary Sue Hubbard's resignation, senior GO officials secretly met with Mary Sue Hubbard and conspired to regain control of the GO. Mary Sue Hubbard signed a letter revoking her resignation and condemning the actions of the CMO. Scores of GO staff responded, locking the missionaires out of their premises and were intending to hire armed guards to bar access by me and the other Church officials who had ousted them. I then confronted the mutineers, and persuaded Mary Sue Hubbard to again resign, which ended the last vestige of GO resistance." Here ends David Miscavige's own account of how he violated policy, how he betrayed trusts, how he used lies, trickery, and deceit, and thereby undermined LRH's wife, Mary Sue, who had stood by LRH through the many hard years of research and development of Scientology, who had stood the ramparts alone for LRH when he had to be away, who had assisted LRH in his research, and in whom LRH had personally vested the highest level of authority. And as a mutineer, Miscavige refers to Mary Sue's loyal staff as "mutineers." But of course: "THE CRIMINAL ACCUSES OTHERS OF THINGS WHICH HE HIMSELF IS DOING." Later in the same document, Miscavige goes on: The McDonald Papers "...(T)his was no mere 'cosmetic alteration'... . In a police interview, Laurel Sullivan, the GO ally and architect of the stillborn MCCS project, characterized the purge of the GO as a 'blitzkrieg'... . It was, in fact, a major, dramatic, and permanent overhaul, WITH OVER 800 GO STAFF DISMISSED as unqualified or because of their disagreements with Church policies or because of their complicity in criminal conduct. It required approximately 50 separate missions to purge the GO. The posts of Guardian and Controller were abolished." Emphasis in the above paragraph was added (ALL CAPS) to point up where Miscavige boasts about what may be among the most suppressive acts in the history of Scientology--the dismissal of 800 Scientology staff members. LRH: "A SUPPRESSIVE WILL TRY TO GET RID OF AN ORG." It should be noted that Mary Sue Hubbard was, at the time, the only person that stood in the way of Miscavige's taking over Scientology, and the Guardian's Office was the only agency on Earth designed to prevent suppressive, criminal elements from gaining control over Scientology. So Miscavige's preemptive strike had a sort of homo sapien brilliance to it--as have the totalitarian oppressions and bloody coups of many tyrants. As LRH said: "A true psychotic can be brilliant or stupid, competent or incompetent. It is his general motive or purpose that determines whether or not he is insane or sane. "Famous psychotics like Napoleon, Ivan the Terrible, Stalin and Hitler were all quite brilliant yet wound up destroying everything in sight including their own people. "They had a destructive basic purpose. Every psychotic has one. It is usually covert, hidden, but in full play against his unsuspecting friends." L. Ron Hubbard HCOB 9 May 1977, Issue II, Psychosis, More About NOT-SO-STRANGE BEDFELLOWS: MISCAVIGE AND THE IRS L. Ron Hubbard has much to say about the suppressive nature of income taxes and the IRS in HCO PLs and in other of his writings and lectures. Here are just a few: "Income tax is a suppressive effort to crush individuals and businesses and deprive the state of national gross product." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 25 June 1967, SCIENTOLOGY ORGS TAX AND BALANCE SHEETS "Governments, the tax man, bankers and even accountants on Earth (and in most space civilizations as well) operate on the principle that they are there to take money from activities for their own use. It is to be noted that robbers have the same idea." L. Ron Hubbard The McDonald Papers HCO PL 3 September 1982, DEPUTY FBO FOR MARKETING OF ORG RESOURCES FOR EXCHANGE (D/FBO MORE)PURPOSE "...(T)he FOREMOST reason for a failing national prosperity and inflation is a personal income tax agency. This runs a vicious can't-have on every citizen and makes them PTS to the government." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 12 May 1972R, PTS PERSONNEL AND FINANCE "Accounts goes PTS through various tax and government supervision suppressions... "Staffs are so 'reasonable' they think these SP group representatives are there for necessary purposes or serve some purpose or can be reasoned with--all of which is nonsense." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 26 December 1966, PTS SECTIONS, PERSONNEL AND EXECS Despite the above policies (or because of them) David Miscavige has entered into a secret, sealed pact with the IRS. There of course is no way to find out the exact nature of the agreement, because, true to the 1.1, it is secret, hidden, covert. But one doesn't even have to know the details, really. One has David Miscavige's own statements concerning the agreement (or "peace treaty," as he called it), and a comparison to what LRH has to say. Here are extracts from Miscavige's speech on the night of 7 October 1993, at the IAS 9th Anniversary event, annotated: "Tonight you are here to get word on what has been promoted as our biggest breakthrough on the Fourth Dynamic ever. Let me begin by assuring you that this is not an overstatement." NOTE: Here Miscavige positions himself and his pact with a suppressive group as being above LRH and being a bigger breakthrough than, e.g., the release of Dianetics, Clearing, the OT levels, the founding of the Sea Org--in short, above anything LRH ever did. "The biggest win an enemy of ours could ever have would be to stop our real mission, the salvage of man and the rehabilitation of his true spiritual nature. ... They (the IRS) had been attacking the church with the purpose of destroying it for over a decade. ... The IRS was more than happy about the way things were going in the church in the early eighties; it looked like total destruction was imminent within months." NOTE: Miscavige insists that the IRS (or sometimes, in his speech, "the government") was bent on stopping Scientology. Yet LRH says: "The reason for this declaration is the consistent disaster visited upon her 'allies' by the United States government and the efforts of that government since 1955, stepped up since 1963, TO SEIZE SCIENTOLOGY RATHER THAN FORBID OR STOP IT... ." (Emphasis added.) L. Ron Hubbard The McDonald Papers HCO PL 14 June 1965, Issue III, POLITICS, FREEDOM FROM, Miscavige's assertion vs. LRH's data: these are CONTRARY FACTS. According to LRH: "When two 'facts' are contrary or contradictory...they can't both be true." Miscavige goes on with his explanation about allying with the IRS: "One key part of our success was making sure none of the real SPs was on our lines..." NOTE: If one knows PTS/SP tech, this means that Miscavige had the Ethics, Admin, and PC folders of all IRS employees, and knew exactly which ones did or did not get case gain, which ones did or did not R/S, etc. Either that, or he was using his own "tech." "That was tougher than you think, but not everybody in the IRS is suppressive." That's what Miscavige says. Here is what LRH says: "There are no good government or SP group agents. "The longer you try to be nice the worse off you will be. And the sooner one learns this the happier he will be." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 26 December 1966 ADMIN KNOW-HOW--PTS SECTIONS, PERSONNEL AND EXECS Miscavige vs. LRH. You choose. But there's more... "You may think after everything you know of the IRS that they begrudgingly gave us what we wanted. No, there was case change. ...It's easy now to look back and say that what we were doing was pulling withholds and when you pull withholds you begin to get case change." That's what Miscavige says. Here is what LRH says: "THE CRIMINAL IS NOT MUCH BENEFITED BY THE GIVING OFF OF CURRENT WITHHOLDS AND IS NOT LIKELY TO REFORM BECAUSE OF THIS. One, therefore, has to get down to the basic evil intentions, as in Expanded Dianetics." L. Ron Hubbard HCOB 15 September 1981, THE CRIMINAL MIND Miscavige vs. LRH. You choose. This report could go on quoting Miscavige as he contradicts LRH in order to justify his actions and liaisons, but the evidence is clear. SUMMARY David Miscavige is a Suppressive Person. He has overseen the publication of squirrel versions of Scientology technology, slickly packaged and sold under the trademarks of LRH and Scientology; he The McDonald Papers has manipulated and abused the management lines of Scientology through the mechanisms of corporate musical chairs and trademark extortion, turning the churches that LRH created into favored cliques for some (based on money-motivated favoritism), and into citadels of fear and oppression for others through the suppressive use and condoning of "ethics" and "justice" actions that are actually only a crass, low-toned travesty of "justice" (and have nothing whatsoever to do with the Justice Codes), using the same tired tactics that have been used by tyrants, fascists, and other bullies and thugs of his ilk down through the millennia; he has orchestrated the creation and dissemination of false and suppressive 'policy' in the form of SPDs, using these for fraud and extortion and in the crippling of Scientology org management through the enforcement of illegal orders and counter-policy; he has engineered an unholy alliance with a suppressive group and, in doing so, has placed Scientology and Scientologists at risk while blocking the progress of Scientologists up the Bridge. All of these actions, whatever lofty rhetoric is used to mask them, are High Crimes and Suppressive Acts. They also constitute Fraud and Extortion. The main method of bringing off these crimes has been the creation and enforcement of SPDs to negate LRH policy. What David Miscavige and his accomplices seem unable to understand is that LRH Policy exists, that crimes can never eradicate it, and that it will be here and will be being applied by good Scientologists long after the bones of Miscavige and company have become blowing dust in the dry Santa Ana winds. Scientology Justice actually exists, and can and will repair anyone's pitiful meddling. This time around, Miscavige is meddling with mankind's only real hope of freedom, the only real hope that has ever existed in the whole pathetic track of this universe, and, thanks to LRH, there are already at least a few around who will not allow such meddling to go on. Miscavige's suppression of Scientology and Scientologists is over. He has destroyed all he will ever destroy in his assault on Scientology. His campaign of terror, fear, intimidation, and squirrelling is at an end. This hill will be held at all cost. David Miscavige is charged with the following Crimes and High Crimes under the Scientology Justice Codes: CRIMES 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Using Scientology (or perverted and alter-ised tech and calling it Scientology) harmfully so as to bring about disrepute to an org, group or Scientology itself. Issuing alter-ised Scientology technical data or information or instructional or admin procedures, calling it Scientology or calling it something else to confuse or deceive people as to the true source, beliefs and practices of Scientology. Unauthorized use of the materials of Dianetics and Scientology. Falsely attributing or falsely representing oneself or others as source of Scientology or Dianetics technology; or using any position gained with staff and/or public to falsely attribute nonsource material to source or to falsely represent nonsource material as authorized Scientology or Dianetics technology.

The McDonald Papers 17. Employing org staff members to the detriment of the production or the establishment of the organization. 18. Calculated efforts to disrupt Church services or the flow of public up the Bridge through the Churches. 19. Refusal to allow staff or public to progress up the Bridge or creating blocks on the Bridge preventing such progression. 20.

Some reading this may be too afraid of David Miscavige to dare even entertain the thought of bringing him to justice. Some may have seen their friends disappear in the night, having been summarily removed from post, and fear the same fate. Some may have been the subject of threats and intimidation by Miscavige or his thugs, as such is part of the arsenal of SPs in their constant effort to restimulate. Some may be impressed by Miscavige's ability to wear gold braid. But on some people, braid is just bric-a-brac, and it can't change what's inside: "The criminal, even when he seems most clever, is really very, very stupid. The evil intentions get dramatized by senseless overt acts which are then withheld, and the final result is a person who is more dead then alive and who faces a future so agonizing that any person would shudder at it. The criminal, in fact, has forfeited his life and any meaning to it even when he remains 'uncaught' and 'unpunished,' for in the long run, he has caught himself and punishes himself for all eternity. No common judge can give a sentence as stiff as that. ... "...He is more to be pitied than punished. Neither bold nor brave, for all his pretense, he is really just a panicky, whimpering coward inside. ... "...Fortunately, there are still a lot of decent people left in the world." L. Ron Hubbard HCOB 15 September 1981, THE CRIMINAL MIND The evidence of these Crimes and High Crimes is abundant. If anyone can't find it, it is on file both here and with several trusted, loyal, long-time Scientologists. Copies will be delivered to those who want to help bring this criminal to justice. If you, reading this, have gone the effect of Miscavige's treachery to the point of aiding and abetting it, please report yourself as PTS per policy, confess your overts and get forgiveness from any Scientology minister, get honest and straight, and apply Scientology Ethics standardly to come up the conditions and make up any damage The McDonald Papers you have done. There is no excuse for condoning or contributing to such crimes, or for standing by and doing nothing while an SP rides rough-shod over Man's only hope for Total Freedom. But it is also recognized that the following truth, too, is part of LRH's tech: "The persons around an SP get so restimulated they can't detect the real SP." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 7 August 1965 SUPPRESSIVE PERSONS, MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF If Miscavige tries to threaten or blackmail or bully you, LRH's standard Ethics and Justice technology will see you safely through if you simply insist on its standard application. Meanwhile please report any further criminal activity you are aware of so that it can be used in bringing order.

My report on DM has not been well-received, it appears. In fact, it appears that I am being kidnapped to L.A. It says I *must be there*, with a threat of being excommunicated from my religion for not appearing. Does this have a precedent on this miserable ball of mud we inhabit? The McDonald Papers I cannot, in good conscience, submit to this kind of coercion. Even if I felt it might accomplish anything to go there, my family is of course dependent on my being here with them, and we are already in financial straits, largely due to the uncountable hours I have devoted to getting this thing resolved, and the expenses I have incurred doing it.

Since that time, you have sent numerous communications to Church staff members and executives repeatedly stating your disagreements with various Church personnel and policies. You have spread black PR and lies in a suppressive fashion in an attempt to attack the Church and the principals of the religion. By your actions, you are clearly in violation Of your Non-Enturbulation order issued pursuant to HCO PL 1 July 1965 Issue I, ETHICS CHITS. However, before simply issuing an SP Declare, I am extending you an opportunity to come in to OSA International and see if your situation can be resolved with a face to face meeting. This opportunity is being afforded you only because never having spoken to you directly I have the hope that perhaps you may come to your senses before it is too late. You must be here at OSA Int by Sunday, 12 May, 1996. I will expect a call from you by no later than the end of the day Saturday, 11 May, confirming your arrival. If I have not heard from you by the end of Saturday, I will treat your lack of response as a refusal to accept the invitation and I will proceed in accordance with the above referenced policy. Sincerely, The McDonald Papers Kurt Weiland D/Commanding Officer Office of Special Affairs International Scientology: Improving Life in a Troubled World The McDonald Papers ( 16 ) 9 May 1996 Mookie: Here is my response to Weiland, as promised. Randy -----------------------------------------------------------------Kurt Weiland D/Commanding Officer Office of Special Affairs International 9 May 1996 Re: Yours of 9 May 1996 Dear Mr. Weiland: I will not be coming to L.A. If your intention is in fact to meet face to face, as you state in your letter, my home is open to you, and we would be glad to show you some genuine Southern hospitality. My wife is quite a cook! If you choose not to accept my invitation... When you write the declare, knowing that it is based solely on an off-policy non-enturbulation order lorded over my head for eleven months; knowing that my only crime has been to insist on standard Scientology as written by LRH; knowing that the only line I have used for doing so has been through the writing of standard and factual reports; knowing that one cannot be disciplined for writing a report; knowing that two Committees of Evidence did not find reason to declare me; knowing that you declare a person who has made important contributions to the expansion of Scientology for 25 years; knowing what destruction such a declare could ultimately wreak on my wife and four wonderful children (all, like me, dedicated Scientologists) who depend on me for their livelihood; knowing (as IÕm sure you do) of my work on establishing Celebrity magazine, on getting Mission Earth onto bestseller lists, on promoting LRHÕs special properties, on helping Yvonne get Celebrity The McDonald Papers Centre established, etc.--I wonder: Will your hand shake? Or will you smile in satisfaction? Will you sleep better, knowing you have removed some scourge from the face of the earth, or at least some imagined enemy? Will you relish in damning my beautiful and bright 7-year-old daughter to the choice of: No Bridge or No Daddy? Will you be happy to separate me from my three proud boys, each growing bigger, smarter, and more able each day through their own dedication to and understanding of LRHÕs invaluable tech? Will you feel you have accomplished some grand mission in destroying a man who has dedicated his own life, honour, and existence to doing all he can to forward and uphold LRHÕs tech? Will you calmly and rationally be able to justify condemning a being for all eternity because he has used every line and means at his disposal to do all he can to keep Scientology working, despite personal danger, and to bring to the attention of the responsible terminals things that he perceives to be egregious violations of LRHÕs tech? Is this what your purpose is? Is this why you exist? Is this your agenda? If so, Mr. Weiland, I send you the salute given to the gladiators. I had hoped to learn that you would be investigating the felonies I wrote up in my report, not contributing to them, but things, alas, are just as they are. So I feel that you should know that whatever happens to me, whether I am falsely declared or not, I will never rest until the truth is out and any who have contributed to the destruction or reduction or seizure of Scientology have looked into the eyes of Justice and found their reward. If that includes you, it is by your own hand and the alliances you choose. If you elect to declare me, I guess the gloves will be officially off then--again, by your own hand and the alliances you choose. My allegiance is to LRH. It always has been and always will be. And my integrity and honour are intact. I call your hand, Mr. Weiland. Regards, Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers ( 17 ) 13 May 1996 Ace of Clubs: You may or may not have already house the other day *to talk to to make me "come to my senses." to me directly, and told her it talk to him." heard that Kurt Weiland called my my wife* and try to convince *her* He didn't even have the guts to talk was because he "didn't think I would The McDonald Papers So I got on the phone. No point in trying to recreate the conversation. It was mainly nothing more than his demanding I come to L.A., and my telling him that if there was anything, anything at all, that proved any of my reports false, or that could correct any false impression I might have regarding the matters I had written up, then all he had to do was put those in writing, or refer me to the applicable LRH issues. His solution: get me to L.A. My solution: send it to me in writing. He wouldn't, of course. Finally I told him to at least send me a written reply to my 9 May letter to him, and to include in it his *proposal* of exactly what would be done if I ever did consent to come to L.A.: where we would meet, who would be there, and exactly what documents or Policy Letters or what-have-you he would be showing me, because he kept insisting that he just wanted to meet with me personally to show me some things that I must not know about. (Yeah, right. So why the HELL wouldn't he just FAX me copies of these mysterious "Things I Don't Know About"?). You will see in his letter that he seized on the fact of my having mentioned, in passing, the financial impossibility of my coming to L.A., quite as an aside to my moral objections to his coercive tactics, and he has offered to "help me out" with the financial aspects. Unfortunately, he didn't say--either on the phone or in writing--how he was proposing to "help me out." A loan? No thanks. I'm overextended as it is. Take it out IAS coffers? That would be a laugh. But you will also see that he completely avoids spelling out *any* of the specifics that I asked him to include in his written answer to my 9 May letter. I am composing a response to him now. Since he didn't spell out a specific agenda for an L.A. meeting, I'm doing it for him. It will follow this document shortly. I bet you have quite a little cache of files built up by now.

I understand you have problems getting the funds together immediately to come to LA, but this seems to be a small problem that can be overcome. In the interests of resolving your situation, I offered to assist you with this matter if needed, so let me know whether this is the case. As I also mentioned, I don't expect that you will respond to this offer of assistance by nit-picking my communication and placing all sorts of conditions and guarantees on your willingness to sit down and resolve what you told me is something you have been trying to handle for more than a year, I am offering you exactly that chance. It is also what I wish to achieve as you obviously care about preserving your bridge and your continued association and relationship with other Scientologists. I will provide you with exact references and information which address the specific points you have raised in your reports. You have expressed your desire to resolve things in accordance with LRH policy, and I share your wish in this regard. By actually applying the LRH tech this situation can be resolved. Don't bite the hand that is extended to you to pull you back from over the side of the cliff. As I told you, this is not a matter of "negotiation"--I am inviting you to do exactly what you say you desire, to sort this out with finality. I look forward to hearing from you when you will be able to make it to Los Angeles. Let me know some alternative times when you can be here so I can arrange my schedule accordingly and we can come to a final agreement on getting together. Sincerely, Kurt Weiland Scientology: Improving Life in a Troubled World The McDonald Papers ( 18 ) 23 May 1996 Elf! Look! I've put your name up in lights in my response to "Ghurt." I decided it's time he and the Diminutive Mastermind became aware that their machinations are being recorded for posterity. As I said I would do in my last traffic to you, I have provided Mr. Weiland with a very specific, reasoned agenda for a meeting in L.A. I have spelled it out in great detail. I hope he is as pleased as I The McDonald Papers am to learn that we are so close to a meeting of the minds. I have grave misgivings, though, that he may not embrace my proposed agenda enthusiastically. Call me pessimistic. I have laid all the cards on the table. You might note that they include four Aces. You haven't known about them, nor, perhaps, about some of the others listed in the routing. I've never been good at introductions. Well, I suppose we'll just have to see what the other hand holds. I call Mr. Weiland's hand in my 9 May letter, but he still refuses to lay down what he holds. Could it be that he can't? Is anyone in the Church ever going to face up to the facts? I despair of it. I despair. Here is response to Mr. Weiland.

RTC Little John Terpsichore Elf Mookie Darwin Aquarius JD SEALED COPIES: Ace Ace Ace Ace of of of of 23 May 1996 Hearts Clubs Diamonds Spades Re: Yours of 13 May 1996 Dear Mr. Weiland: Thank you for your Faxed letter. I'm sorry to have been this long getting back to you, but your letter arrived while I was under extreme deadline pressures for a presentation to the senior executives of a major national corporation, and I have been working on it and other extreme deadlines nearly around the clock. (I'm happy to report that the presentation landed the account!) I read your letter with great interest, and I believe we may be very close to a resolution. In Para. 5 of your letter, you say: "I will provide you with exact references and information which address the specific points you have raised in your reports." This is very heartening indeed, and gives me great hope for clearing up matters which have been of the gravest concern to me (and others) for some time. For the sake of clarification and specificity, I'd like to summarize some of the more important points I have raised in my reports (which you mention above), and would appreciate your written confirmation that you will be providing me with exact The McDonald Papers references and information which directly address these specific points: 1. The fraudulent use of LRH's name, the trademarks of Dianetics and Scientology, church facilities, church bank accounts, and church personnel to create, package, promote and sell works which have been altered and/or abridged without saying so. The fraudulent use of LRH's name, the trademarks of Dianetics and Scientology, church facilities, church bank accounts, and church personnel to create, package, promote and sell works which are an undifferentiated mixture of the writings of LRH and the writings of unknown others. The use of the United States postal system for carrying out this fraud. The fraudulent claim that Scientology Policy Directives (SPDs) are church policy. The patent, irrefutable contradiction of LRH's writings by SPDs. The use of SPDs to create off-policy organizations, then misrepresenting these as bona fide Scientology organizations. The use of SPDs and the IAS to divert tens of millions of dollars away from Scientology organizations (extortion and fraud). The use of SPDs to extort compliance from church officials and staff to off-policy programs, projects, and orders. The knowledge of and complicity of David Miscavige in all the above. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Although this list is inclusive, not exclusive, and although I (and others) are already in possession of ample evidence on every single point listed above, I feel that if you do, indeed, have references and information directly concerning the above points (as you generally promise in your letter), that could augment the substantial body of evidence already collected, we may be very, very close to a resolution that would satisfy the test of "greatest good for the greatest number of dynamics." So I anxiously await your written confirmation that your documents specifically address all the above points, and I would also naturally expect a written assurance from you that: A. You are in no way a party to any of the described felonies or crimes, and, You are actively and aggressively investigating these crimes and are taking steps to bring these criminal activities to an immediate halt, as well as identifying any perpetrators or accomplices, and, You are operating within the parameters of Church policy (HCO B. C. The McDonald Papers PLs) and prevailing law to bring the perpetrators to justice, and, D. You are sufficiently neutral and judiciously disinterested to carry out an unbiased investigation of the above, and are free to act on your findings, no matter where they point or what actions must be taken to see Justice done. Once I have your unambiguous confirmation, in writing, of the above, I assure you that I will move heaven and earth to do whatever is necessary to help you bring order and effect Justice. Whether or not a lack of response on your part might be indicative of tacit involvement, I know that, for me, it would give rise to some misgivings about your actual motivation in making these efforts to get me to travel to L.A. I would have to conclude that you were being less than candid. And in order to be perfectly candid myself, I must tell you frankly that I get the idea--from the careful wording of your letter, from things that you said to my wife and to me on the phone, from a recent SPD written by your senior, Mike Rinder, and from your own recent misguided efforts to obtain data on me from people who have never even met me--that you do not view any of this as a situation that must be handled with the tools of Scientology Justice exactly and standardly applied to the secular felonies and the ecclesiastical Crimes and High Crimes I described in my reports; I get the idea, instead, that you believe that you are merely dealing with the unfounded fulminations of a few malcontents who, if declared and/or coerced or lured into an HCO Sec Check, can be made to knuckle under and quieten down, and that then it will all go away. So let me assure you of one unassailable fact: it will not go away. And I say this from the vantage point of a ten-foot high board fence. No matter how many messengers you shoot, Mr. Weiland, the secular felonies and the ecclesiastical Crimes and High Crimes remain. And the messengers you take aim on are not the ones who have committed any of them. Nor are they the ones who, at this moment, as I type, are perpetrating and perpetuating them. So if there is any possibility that you, in fact, take the position that no felonies and Crimes and High Crimes have been committed as described in my reports, if you believe that the situations I have described do not exist except, perhaps, in my festering reactive mind, if you believe that by "handling" me it will all go away, or if you are in fact a perpetrator or supporter of the felonies described here and in my reports, then of course there is no need for further correspondence. I have no punitive agenda against David Miscavige or you or anyone else who has knowingly or unknowingly been a party to the matters listed in my reports and in this letter. It is now and has always been my sincerest and direst wish that these issues would be The McDonald Papers addressed completely under the aegis of Church policy and Scientology Justice and would be resolved internally. And my efforts to bring that about are well (and safely) documented. But if the officers (including you) who are responsible for making that happen within the Church structure can't or won't, for whatever reason, act on clear, incontrovertible evidence of wrongdoing, if they steadfastly refuse to bring the perpetrator or perpetrators to justice, and instead embark on a foolish and hopeless campaign to attack the very Scientologists who are making a good-faith effort to bring these weighty matters to the attention of the responsible officers, then those officers have forfeited any claim to the rights and privileges of their office, and lay themselves rightfully open and liable to charges of complicity, and to any penalties such complicity might incur. I sincerely hope you are not in that position. If you are, I hope you will give due and careful consideration to the possible consquences before you take your next step in this matter. In fact, I believe you should seek counsel from someone versed in criminal law. I want to share with you a quote from LRH: "We are slowly and carefully teaching the unholy a lesson. It is as follows: 'We are not a law enforcement agency. BUT we will become interested in the crimes of people who seek to stop us. If you oppose Scientology we promptly look up--and will find and expose--your crimes. If you leave us alone we will leave you alone.' "It's very simple. Even a fool can grasp that. "And don't underrate our ability to carry it out." L. Ron Hubbard HCO B 5 November 1967, CRITICS OF SCIENTOLOGY You can grasp that. I am applying this technology. And will continue to. I never sought to be dealing with any of these matters at all. I certainly didn't create them. But here I am. And I cannot deny responsibility for what I (and quite a few others, now) know. As LRH also says: "We're not playing some minor game in Scientology. It isn't cute or something to do for lack of something better. "The whole agonized future of this planet, every Man, Woman and Child on it, and your own destiny for the next endless trillions of years depends on what you do here and now with and in Scientology. "This is a deadly serious activity. And if we miss getting out of the trap now, we may never again have another chance. "Remember, this is our first chance to do so in all the endless trillions of years of the past. Don't muff it now The McDonald Papers because it seems unpleasant or unsocial to do Seven, Eight, Nine and Ten." L. Ron Hubbard "Keeping Scientology Working" So please don't mistake anything I have said in this or any other correspondence as a lack of resolve. The points I have listed in my reports must be and will be effectively addressed and terminatedly handled, whatever that takes. I hope you will be among those who are getting that job done. If you, instead, insist on protecting the reputation or corporate position of one man, David Miscavige, at whatever cost, if you choose to put that crusade above your duties to L. Ron Hubbard, above Keeping Scientology Working, above your responsibilities to the dynamics in making sure the LRH's tech remains free, then you have set your own course. Please don't muff it now, Mr. Weiland. So much depends on what you do, here and now, with and in Scientology. Revinimus, Jon Randall McDonald P.S. Mr. Rinder said something extremely curious in his SPD of 21 April 1996, "PERSONAL INCOME TAX--ADDITIONAL." He said that LRH advised Church leaders "...to institute Scientology Policy Directives." I'm as curious as any Scientologist would be about where that advice appears in Church scripture, and also about how any Church leader could ever be lead into believing, even if such advice actually exists somewhere, that mere advice could in some way override HCO PLs. Mr. Rinder creates a "mystery sandwich," which is fabulous for making people want to find out and to actually SEE the thing. I'm sure the demand will become voluminous. Now, what follows is just wild speculation, but...is there any remote possibility that this advice came, in the best tradition of Moses, via David Miscavige? And is it possible that it is contained in a missive that is signed only by an * (asterisk), or a typed R? I'm merely curious, you understand, and feel certain that countless others will also want the details, now that Mr. Rinder has made it public knowledge. Is it one of the documents you'll be showing me? --JRM P.P.S. Re: Where You Are Looking For Other Copies of My Report and Supporting Evidence--Cold. Very, very, cold. Freezing. Approaching absolute zero. Or, to mix metaphors, barking up a palm and calling it a tree. Learn your trade if you are expecting to continue in the post you are on.--JRM P.P.P.S. I received in the mail a bolt out of the blue: a correspondence from a person I have not seen or heard from since 1986. His name is Rueben Hart, and he used to be on lines at Celebrity Centre when I was on staff there. I am FAXing his letter to you and will not be responding to it, because I heard somewhere that he was declared; I understand that he left Scientology and went The McDonald Papers over to Mayo's outfit. Anyway, I thought you ought to know about it, because I was shocked to learn that he had somehow gotten wind of my report all the way out in Tucson. Also because he is reportedly declared, and I believe that your organization handles this sort of thing.--JRM P.P.P.P.S. The Four Aces are entirely unknown to you and out of your reach. Sealed copies of all documents include detailed instructions on what to do should anything untoward happen to me or to my close friends or family, or upon receipt of notice that I have been expelled from Scientology.--JRM P.P.P.P.PS. I am always willing to talk, real intent, whenever you would actually and resolved, with careful thought given sticky wicket. I am enclosing a proposed this Faxed communication.--JRM whenever that becomes your like to get this sorted out to handling this rather handling which follows in PROPOSED AGENDA FOR RESOLUTION TO THE MATTERS AT HAND 1. David Miscavige resigns his position for whatever reason anyone cares to give, as long as it does not cast the slightest taint on LRH, MSH, or Scientology. He does steps A to E exactly per policy. It will include apologies to LRH and MSH for his efforts to degrade and discredit both. 2. An Urgent Directive, issued BPI, cancels ALL SPDs and "Senior C/S International Bulletins." This Urgent Directive explains that these are not valid issues per HCO PL "ISSUES, TYPES OF." 3. Any operational points that have been addressed by SPD that actually need addressing (if there are any) get rapidly reissued correctly in an issue type covered by HCO PL "ISSUES, TYPES OF." 4. A Committe of Evidence is convened to fully investigate the felonies, Crimes and High Crimes of Miscavige, to discover who actively supported these acts and contributed to them, and to effect justice exactly per Scientology policy. My report is part of the evidence they consider. 5. All publications that are "based on the works of L. Ron Hubbard" are recalled and cancelled. Orgs are credited for any monies that have been paid for such publications, and can order an equivalent amount in genuine LRH books, tapes, etc. 6. A second Urgent Directive, also issued BPI, solicits the help of every Scientologist everywhere to locate and report any known or suspected alterations of LRH tapes or writings. A major programme is launched to get any and all such altered tapes or writings corrected and republished. 7. A second Committee of Evidence is called to look into the creation and operation of the IAS, and its relationship to HCO PLs and the HASI. A full accounting gets published broadly of its financial operations since its inception. The McDonald Papers 8. A third Committee of Evidence is called to look into the agreement that was forged with the IRS and to report its findings to all Scientologists. 9. A fourth Committee of Evidence is called to reconcile your organization, OSA, with existing policy and to publish its findings to all Scientologists. This may not be complete, but would certainly go a very long way toward handling the current situations. It would be quite a bit of work. But then, it took quite a bit of work by somebody to create this mess, didn't it? And, all things considered, correcting it is really relatively simple and prosurvival, when one carefully weighs the alternatives. Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers ( 19 ) 2 June 1996 Aquarius: I have had it waiting for a reply from Weiland to my 23 May letter. I have now sent him the following letter. He has been fully apprised of the serious nature of my reports, and he knows what they contain. He has a responsibility to act. I think he ought to be made more fully aware of what his responsibilities are. Please duplicate and file as usual. Randy, the Virgo Whatever that means ------------------------------------------------------------------Kurt Weiland D/Commanding Officer Office of Special Affairs International cc: C.O.B. RTC Re: The Law of the Land Dear Mr. Weiland: As I have received no response from you to my Faxed letter of 23 May 1996, I am FAXing this to you to beseech you to respond and to let me know what is being done about the crimes I have thoroughly reported to you and to other officers, and for which I have provided ample evidence. As a hatting action, I am enclosing with this Faxed letter five pages of excerpts from the United States Code, Title 18—CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE. You will see from the first two entries alone that your lack of 2 June 1996 The McDonald Papers action or response puts me—and you, and other officers—in a rather untenable position. I have been led to understand that you and your organization have the responsibility to handle this matter. I have been further led to understand, in various official publications that I have to hand, that RTC and your organization have, as part of their responsibilities, ensuring that the laws of the land are being followed. It has been nearly three months, now, since I submitted a detailed report of violations of the Codes enclosed herein. So I implore you, as an officer of the church, to please let me know, with all appropriate speed, exactly what steps are being taken within the structure of the church to rapidly correct the matters that you have been made fully aware of. I must insist on a substantive answer within 48 hours, or I will have no option but to proceed on the assumption that you, and the organization in which you hold a most senior position, are somehow involved in the activities that I have reported on. For the record, please note that I have absolutely no personal gain motives of any description in my efforts to get these matters known and corrected. In fact, quite the contrary: the pursuit of these matters has cost me not an inconsiderable amount in out-of-pocket expenses and untold hours of uncompensated work and research for which I do not expect, nor will I ever accept, under any circumstances, from any source, any form of remuneration or compensation.

The McDonald Papers The McDonald Papers ( 20 ) 11 June 1996 Ace of Hearts: What else could they do? What else could they possibly do? I am going to take a long walk this afternoon. Thank you for being there. Randy -------------------------------------------------------------------- SEA ORGANIZATION FLAG CONDITIONS ORDER 12212 ALL ORGS AND MISSIONS 11 June 1996 SUPPRESSIVE PERSON DECLARE JON RANDALL MCDONALD JON RANDALL MCDONALD is hereby declared a SUPPRESSIVE PERSON. In July 1995, McDonald was placed under a NonEnturbulation order for having engaged in actions directly designed to knock Scientologists off The Bridge and to put Scientology and Scientologists at risk. McDonald was warned that one more instance of spreading enturbulation by continuing such activities would result in his being declared a Suppressive Person (per HCO PL 1 July 65 Ethics Chits). Since that time, he has repeatedly violated the Non-Enturbulation order. Impartial investigation was undertaken regarding the real or imagined conflicts of Jon Randall McDonald. McDonald has been involved in a studied attempt to drive Scientologists off The Bridge and put them at legal risk. McDonald has done this through a repeated pattern of obtaining loans from Scientologists and not paying them back, promoting schemes on Scientology lines that could get other Scientologists in legal trouble, and even unethical 2D activities interfering with others' progress up The Bridge. Date coincident with the Church obtaining both tax exemption and IRS recognition that Scientologists' donations are tax deductible, McDonald began railing against the Church's historic victory. Looking into why McDonald would attack such a breakthrough for Scientology expansion revealed that McDonald has been fraudulently promoting illegal tax protester schemes. McDonald was apparently upset that the Churches of Scientology and their public have turned most of their energies and attention away from battles and toward clearing the planet. To McDonald, protesting and fighting, no matter The McDonald Papers what the cost to the crusade to clear the planet, was more important. He wanted to fight for the sake of fighting and to drag Scientologists into the fray, all apparently so he could evade taxes. "They are in a continual PTP of their fight with mankind." LRH (HCO PL 7 Aug 65 I, SUPPRESSIVE PERSONS, MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF) When McDonald was made to cease his suppressions on Scientologists' lines, he began a vicious and false black PR campaign against his imagined enemies. He went so far as to publicly support infiltrators and known attackers of the Church. Underlying McDonald's imaginary conflicts with the Church were real financial complaints that other individuals had against McDonald. McDonald has been dodging creditors for years. Not only did McDonald owe a lot in taxes, he also owed a lot of money to several Scientologists in good standing from whom he had borrowed money. For example, McDonald used the credit card of a couple of Scientologists and then stopped repaying. This caused the couple to be dunned by the credit card company for his debt. McDonald then attacked the couple because his failure to make his payments resulted in interest and late payment penalties being added to his debt. He ignored an order from a Chaplain's Court to resume regular payments, and he continued to allow the couple to be dunned by the credit card company for his debt. McDonald has a long history of unethical behavior unbecoming of any Scientologist. He has a repeating pattern since the early 70s of causing enturbulation, resisting offers of help and characterizing any help he has received as betrayal. When on staff at CCLA in the 1970s he was found to be a source of enturbulation to other staff and executives. He blew at least twice and engaged in out-2D and other conduct in violation of strict Sea Org ethical standards. In 1983, McDonald was given a chance to redeem himself on the Rehabilitation Project Force ("RPF"), but he refused. Consistent with his pattern of running away when he feared his overts and withholds would be uncovered, he refused to take the opportunity to correct his transgressions and become more ethical. Instead, he chose to blow from the Sea Org, along with his wife. McDonald's history since leaving Church staff has followed the same pattern of unethical conduct, conflicts and enturbulation of others. McDonald has borrowed money and accumulated debts to Scientologists and family members which he did not repay in spite of promises to do so. In one instance, McDonald borrowed a large sum of money from a family member after pleading with her that he was in dire financial straits and had hit rock bottom in his life. He not only got the money from her, she worked with him to try to help straighten out his life. In return, he refused to repay the loan and wrote and distributed a series of vicious false reports in the guise of The McDonald Papers "Knowledge Reports" through which he sought to deflect attention from his own out-ethics. He has made virtually no progress up The Bridge in 25 years, and ceased even pretending to do so two years ago. Not surprisingly, he has complained that he makes no case gain. His pattern is to target those he fears may cause him to have to confront his own overts and withholds. This is not limited to those in the Church, but also friends and family who have sought to help him. "Criminals hate anything that helps anyone, instinctively. And just as instinctively a criminal fights anything that may disclose his past." - LRH (HCOB 5 November 1967 CRITICS OF SCIENTOLOGY) For two years, his only involvement in Scientology has been to write extremely critical and nattery reports targeting those who ARE doing something to help bring sanity to planet Earth, while seeking to cause as much disruption and enturbulation to them as possible. "If anyone were to promise to make others stronger or brighter, the antisocial personality suffers the utmost agony of personal danger." LRH (HCO PL 27 Sept 1966 THE ANTISOCIAL PERSONALITY - THE ANTI-SCIENTOLOGIST) He also complains about Church policy, writing lengthy "reports" calculated only to enturbulate, which go so far as to quote suppressive judicial decisions that were long since proven false, but as they support McDonald's lies and enturbulation, couched as "fact", he finds them suitable to quote. "Here (at 1.1) we have lies used to hide lies amid the most frantic protestations of honesty and a noisy advertising campaign about the ethics of the speaker." - LRH (Science of Survival). By his actions, he has knowingly and deliberately chosen his own fate, turning away from the religion in spite of numerous chances to avail himself of standard technology.

Should McDonald recant and come to his senses, and cease committing suppressive acts, his only Scientology terminal is the International Justice Chief, who will direct him to steps A through E as per HCO PL 23 December 1965RB SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS.

Randy -------------------------------------------------------------------HCO Area Secretary (or as HFA), CC Nashville Jon Randall McDonald cc: IJC 12 June 1996 Re: Suppressive Person Declare, FCO 12212 Ref:HCO PL 23 December 1965, "ETHICS SUPPRESSIVE ACTS SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS THE FAIR GAME LAW" Dear Sir or Madam: Pursuant to and in strict accordance with the above referenced Policy Letter, I am writing to claim that the Suppressive Person Declare which was written on me (also referenced above) is false, and to request a Committee of Evidence for recourse and for redress of wrongs. In specific, let me address each relevant part of the Policy Letter: "...(A) person or group may be falsely labeled a Suppressive Person or Group." I assert that this is the case: that I have been falsely labeled, and that, given any fair hearing before an impartial body, I can prove beyond any doubt that I have been falsely labeled. "Should the person or group claim the label to be false..." I do so hereby emphatically claim the label to be false. "...he, she or they may request a Committee of Evidence via their nearest HCO." The McDonald Papers I do so hereby request a Committee of Evidence. You are my nearest HCO, so this is going via you. I also completed my last service at CC Nashville, and so am a parishioner on CC Nashville's lines, and so am properly within your jurisdiction per HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF." "The executive with the power to convene a Committee of Evidence must do so if one is requested for recourse or redress of wrongs." I do so hereby request the Committee of Evidence for recourse and for redress of wrongs. Per the Policy, as quoted above, this request must be granted. Also, per HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF," this requested Committee of Evidence is fully within the purview and authority of the Convening Authority at CC Nashville, and since that would be "The executive with the power to convene a Committee of Evidence," it would follow, per these policies, that the Committee of Evidence would be convened here. And I hereby so request that it be convened here. That would be in accordance with these policies, and would be the only logical course of action, since: a) I live here. b) I am a parishioner on CC Nashville's lines. c) My livelihood and the livelihood of my family depend utterly on my being here on a daily basis, since I freelance and am on-call constantly for my clients. d) Any extended period of time away from my work would be disastrous to my established trade and income and to the survival of my family. e) There is no compelling reason whatsoever to convene the Committee of Evidence anywhere else; any such requirement would constitute the introduction of an arbitrary, a very destructive arbitrary which would place an unnecessary and overwhelming burden on me and my family, and would render the realization of actual recourse and justice in this matter impossible for me to attain. f) The executives and staff at CC Nashville are fully competent to apply Scientology Justice policies and to conduct a Committee of Evidence standardly and on-policy. g) Per the policy referenced at the top of this request: "It is wise for any Scientologist, HCO Secretary or Committee of Evidence in matters concerning Suppressive Acts to obtain valid documents, letters, testimonies duly signed and witnessed, affidavits duly sworn to and other matters and evidences which would have weight in a court of law. Momentary spite, slander suits, charges of Scientology separating families, etc, are then guarded against." If this policy is going to be applied fairly, justly, and correctly, then any evidence that anyone claims to The McDonald Papers have against me can be delivered to the Committee in the forms specified above. For the many reasons stated above, all firmly supported by policy, I request that the Committee of Evidence be convened and held at CC Nashville. It is my belief, based on events of the last several months, that there will be an effort from some quarter to force me to go to L.A. if I want a Committee of Evidence. I say this based on the fact that Kurt Weiland, D/CO of OSA Int, has made repeated efforts in recent weeks to get me to "come to L.A. and talk face-to-face" (traffic on file). As this kind of "handling" (for standard reports I have written) is nowhere in Policy, and as it would have placed an impossible burden on me and on my family--logistically, financially, and professionally--I steadfastly declined his invitations to "come to L.A." despite the fact that part of the duress placed on me to do so was the threat of being declared if I didn't (also on file). Since this threat has now been made good, it would surprise me if there were not, now, an arbitrary entered in: that the only place I can get a Committee of Evidence is in L.A. This, of course, would be an arbitrary and nothing but, as a reading of policies on Committees of Evidence will reveal. There simply is no supportable reason why I should be uprooted from my home, my job, my family, and forced to travel 2,000 miles, and to stay away from my work and livelihood for an indeterminate amount of time, in order to face a Committee of Evidence and deal with actual evidence against me--if there is any. The tired old trick of saying it will have to be in L.A. for "security reasons" may be trotted out--without, of course, providing any substantive basis for why "security" should be a consideration. Well, I sure don't have anything to hide. Does somebody else? If not, then the Committee of Evidence will be convened in Nashville, where it makes sense to have it, and where Justice can surely and without question be accomplished. As a final note in this request for recourse and redress of wrongs, I would like to state that the Declare is composed exclusively of generalities, half-truths, and utter, fabricated falsehoods. It is slander of the most heinous and despicable sort. It makes the National Enquirer look like a model of truth-in-print. It is, itself, a sick mockery of HCO PL 2 June 1965, "WRITING OF AN ETHICS ORDER." Examples: 1) "He (McDonald) went so far as to publically support infiltrators and attackers of the Church."--Not one specific is given, because this is a bald-faced lie that cannot be supported. 2) "Not surprisingly, he has complained that he makes no case gain."--Another completely fabricated lie. My files are full of rave success stories about the amazing, untold, miraculous wins I have had from Life Repair, ARC Straightwire, Objectives, Full Drug Rundown, Standard Dianetics, The Primary Rundown, M-1 Word Clearing, The Purification Rundown, ALL Expanded Grades, attesting to Clear, the HQS, Admin and Ethics courses and hats...on and on. I owe my very existence to LRH and to his miraculous technology; I have never uttered one word to the contrary, and have never experienced The McDonald Papers anything short of miracles from any Dianetics or Scientology. Whoever says otherwise is a black-souled liar, and I pray for the opportunity to tell them that to their face. 3) "Instead he chose to blow from the Sea Org, along with his wife."--Yet another complete lie. A 1987 Committee of Evidence at CC Int verified that we didn't blow. We were Fitness Boarded out of the Sea Org. It would be easy to go on, point-by-point, but that is the job of the Committee. I include these examples merely to show to what lengths someone has gone to try and paint me in the worst possible light, without regard to truth. Therefore I write this request so that these unfounded and unconscionable accusations against me can be examined by an impartial body and so I can get recourse through standard Justice procedure. I further specifically request that the Committee, in accordance with policy, be convened swiftly, and, also per policy, that it complete its investigation within the proscribed seven days. The false and slanderous allegations made against me in this Declare have already had serious repercussions on my family and on my profession, and these can only become compounded the longer this gross injustice is allowed to stand uncorrected. As this matter is of the utmost concern to me, I am FAXing this for speed. I would appreciate it if you could acknowledge receipt of this letter by return FAX. My FAX number is: (615) 367-3896. To send a FAX to that number, it is not necessary to listen on a handset for a FAX tone; simply dial the number and start transmission. Thank you for your swift attention to this request. I am confident that policy will be followed, and therefore that this request, as it must, will be quickly granted.

Copies enclosed. Weiland, naturally, resolved himself into a dew in regards to this matter, and IJC was ordered (by someone) to do the dirty work. I have requested a Committee of Evidence, as is my right. I have utter confidence in the Old Manås Justice technology. I have no faith that it will be applied correctly. All indications are that I must be discredited at any cost, and I can only predict that every artifice and device will be used to twist and pervert the Justice codes so that I cannot get a fair hearing. As you know, both of the previous Comm Evs found nothing at all to censure me for, had not one shred of evidence against me for any of the allegations, and both have been suppressed out of existence. Stand firm until this Comm Ev request has run its course. It isnåt time yet to release the information publically. I want to do everything possible to get justice through Scientology. So I retain my copyrights on everything I have written, and forbid publication of them. But keep your powder dry. Thanks for your constancy. Randy The McDonald Papers ( 23 ) 14 June 1996 Ace of Clubs: Well, slime knows no bounds. In the third paragraph from the bottom on the letter enclosed below, this ineffable thug makes a sly, covert effort to cut me off from my wife and children in order to receive a Comm Ev. I don't know what reservoir of patience I draw on. I am forging a response that will be coming to you shortly. I am taking a great many walks these days.

In this communication you quoted from HCO PL 23 DEC 1965 "ETHICS SUPPRESSIVE ACTS SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS THE FAIR GAME LAW." However, this policy has been revised and the revised issue is HCO PL 23 DEC 1965RB, SUPPRESSIVE ACTS SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS. The applicable section (with respect to your comm ev request) is under "RIGHTS OF A SUPPRESSIVE PERSON 0R GROUP." I will have a copy of this issue sent to you if you don't have one. You will note that I, as the International Justice Chief am your only Scientology terminal, via the Continential (sic) Justice Chief. With regards to your standing with the Church of Scientology, I am requiring that you adhere to HCO PL 23 DEC 1965RB, SUPPRESSIVE ACTS SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS. This would include not contacting ANY other Scientologists in good standing, Scientology orgs, missions or groups. There will be no further action taken on your comm ev request until you are fully in accordance with the above Policy Letter (23 DEC 1965RB). I recommend that you avail yourself of the steps A through E. Sincerely, (signature of Al Sternson) International Justice Chief The McDonald Papers ( 24 ) 16 June 1996 Darwin: Here is my latest effort. I am incredibly weary. Today my children took it upon themselves to compose their own messages to IJC. It was all on their own originations. Even dear, sweet Paige asked her Mom to write down what she dictated so she could send a letter to IJC, too, and explain all this to him. The McDonald Papers I couldn't read it. I took another walk, this time through the woods near our house, and I fear I sat against a giant, ancient tree and wept for some time.

Booklet: "DESCRIPTION OF THE SCIENTOLOGY RELIGION," p. 2: "L. Ron Hubbard is the only source of Scientology Scripture." Dear Sir or Madam: Pursuant to and in strict accordance with the above referenced Policy Letters (Scientology Scripture), I am writing to claim that the Suppressive Person Declare which was written on me (also referenced above) is false, and to request a Committee of Evidence for recourse and for redress of wrongs. Also in strict accordance with policy, and with the Articles of Incorporation, and based on the official booklets quoted above, you are legally bound to grant this request, to grant it swiftly, to convene it as an HCO Area Committee of Evidence, to see that it completes its job within seven days, and to publish its findings and recommendations exactly according to HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF." In specific, let me address each relevant part of the Policy Letters The McDonald Papers (Scientology Scripture): "...(A) person or group may be falsely labeled a Suppressive Person or Group." I assert that this is the case: that I have been falsely labeled, and that, given any fair hearing before an impartial body, I can prove beyond any doubt that I have been falsely labeled. "Should the person or group claim the label to be false..." I do so hereby emphatically claim the label to be false. "...he, she or they may request a Committee of Evidence via their nearest Continental Justice Chief." I do so hereby request a Committee of Evidence. You are my nearest Continental Justice Chief, so this is going via you. I also completed my last service at CC Nashville, and so am a parishioner on CC Nashville's lines, and so am properly within your jurisdiction per HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF." "The executive with the power to convene a Committee of Evidence must do so if one is requested for recourse or redress of wrongs." I do so hereby request the Committee of Evidence for recourse and for redress of wrongs. Per the Policy (Scientology Scripture), as quoted above, this request must be granted based on this request alone. No other qualifications or conditions can be imposed, and to impose any other condition is to introduce an arbitrary and to therefore be in violation of the Scripture, and to therefore be in violation of the Articles of Incorporation and the law. To quote the policy again, for clarity: "The executive with the power to convene a Committee of Evidence must do so if one is requested for recourse or redress of wrongs." L. RON HUBBARD Per HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF," this requested Committee of Evidence is fully within the purview and authority of you, as CJC EUS, and CC Nashville: "HCO AREA COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE "The Convening Authority is the HCO Executive or Area Secretary in the sphere of a specific central organization or city office. It handles any matters referred to it by its convening authority. These may include all matters relating to the suspension or cancellation of certificates... . It also handles ALL disputes with field auditors, students, preclears, and members of the public." (Emphasis added) L. RON HUBBARD The McDonald Papers Per these policies, the Committee of Evidence is to be convened in Nashville at Celebrity Centre where I was most recently a student, and where I am a member of the public. That is in accordance with these policies. It is also necessary because: a) I live here. I am within the jurisdiction of EUS. b) I am a parishioner on CC Nashville's lines. c) My livelihood and the livelihood of my family (wife and four children)depend utterly and exclusively on my income. And my income depends utterly and exclusively on my being here on a daily basis, since I freelance and am on-call constantly for my clients. I am right now under intense deadline on several very large projects that span several months, and that require my regular, frequent interaction with the clients and agencies who have contracted me to do the work. Since I was contracted based on my unique designs and particular talents (winning these contracts over other designers), it is specifically my personal talents and abilities that are being paid for. My business is called "Randy McDonald Creative Services." I do not have staff to delegate my creative work to; that's not what a freelance designer does. Therefore I do not have the luxury of taking even several days away from my work. When I did it last year to attend a Comm Ev in L.A., I lost work that was vital to me, and as a result I am still, at this very writing, trying to make up lost ground. I am in a very competitive business and time-intensive business, and though I have established myself well with several of the agencies and larger firms in this area, there are plenty of other designers vying for my business. To not be available when needed on deadlines is the kiss of death for my profession. The projects that I am right now contracted for and heavily working on demand my presence. If I am not here to make client changes, to art direct photography, to produce and deliver layouts on the schedules I have already committed to, it will effectively destroy my professional reputation with these clients and agencies and would lay me open to suit. d) Therefore any period of time away from my work would be disastrous to my established trade and income and to the survival of my family. e) There is no reason whatsoever to convene the Committee of Evidence anywhere else; any such requirement would constitute the introduction of an arbitrary IN VIOLATION OF THE SCIENTOLOGY SCRIPTURE AND IN VIOLATION OF THE LAW, a very destructive arbitrary which would place an unnecessary and overwhelming burden on me and my family, and would render the realization of actual recourse and justice in this matter impossible for me to attain. f) The executives and staff at CC Nashville are fully competent to apply Scientology Justice policies and to conduct a Committee of Evidence standardly and on-policy. g) Per the policy referenced at the top of this request: "It is wise for any Scientologist, HCO Secretary or Committee of Evidence in matters concerning Suppressive Acts to obtain valid documents, letters, testimonies duly signed and witnessed, affidavits duly The McDonald Papers sworn to and other matters and evidences which would have weight in a court of law. Momentary spite, slander suits, charges of Scientology separating families, etc, are then guarded against." If this policy is going to be applied fairly, justly, and correctly, then any evidence that anyone claims to have against me can be delivered to the Committee in the forms specified above. For the many reasons stated above, all exactly in accordance with Policy (Scientology Scripture), I request that the Committee of Evidence be convened and held at CC Nashville.

Well, I sure don't have anything to hide. Does somebody else? If not, then the Committee of Evidence will be convened in Nashville, where it makes sense to have it, and where Justice can surely and without question be accomplished. As part of this request for recourse and redress of wrongs, I would like to state that the Declare is composed exclusively of generalities, half-truths, and utter, fabricated falsehoods. It is slander of the most heinous and despicable sort. It makes the National Enquirer look like a model of truth-in-print. It is, itself, a sick mockery of HCO PL 2 June 1965, "WRITING OF AN ETHICS ORDER."

I owe my very existence to LRH and to his miraculous technology; I have never uttered one word to the contrary, and have never experienced anything short of miracles from any Dianetics or Scientology. Whoever says otherwise is a black-souled liar, and I pray for the opportunity to tell them that to their face. 3) "Instead he chose to blow from the Sea Org, along with his wife."--Yet another complete lie.

I therefore urgently recommend that the Committee, in accordance with policy, be convened swiftly, and, also per policy, that it complete its investigation within the proscribed seven days. The false and slanderous allegations made against me in this Declare have already had serious repercussions on my family and on my profession, and these can only become compounded the longer this gross injustice is allowed to stand uncorrected. Finally, I demand that HCO PL 23 December 1965RB, "SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND, SCIENTOLOGISTS," as Scripture, be applied correctly. Part of that includes the following: "Also, until a suppressive person or group is absolved, BUT NOT DURING THE PERIOD WHEN THE PERSON REQUESTS AND HAS A COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE, or an amnesty occurs, no Scientology ethics other then this HCO Policy Letter applies to such persons...." (Emphasis added) L. RON HUBBARD This has already been violated in efforts to cut off my lines for submitting reports, forbidding me to communicate with others (necessary in order that I might gather data about the false reports and slander that have been widely circulated about me), forbidding others to communicate with me, etc., ALL since my original request for this Committee (dated 12 June) was submitted and received by IJC. I demand that these illegal orders to others and to myself be cancelled immediately, and that you operate in accordance with this Policy (Scientology Scripture) as you are BOUND to do by the Articles of Incorporation and the law. I assert that this means that the entire body of Scripture regarding ethics is fully in force in The McDonald Papers relation to me during the period from now until the Committee of Evidence has been properly convened, has finished its job within the proscribed seven days, and has had its findings and recommendations actually published. ANY effort to deny me the recourse and freedom guaranteed by the entire body of those policies (Scientology Scripture) will be documented as evidence of willful violation of these relevant scriptures, violations of the Articles of Incorporation, and violation of corporate and criminal law. As this matter is of the utmost concern to me and to you, I am FAXing this for speed. I would appreciate it if you could acknowledge receipt of this letter by return FAX. My FAX number is: (615) 367-3896. To send a FAX to that number, it is not necessary to listen on a handset for a FAX tone; simply dial the number and start transmission. Thank you for your swift attention to this request. I am confident that policy (Scientology Scripture) will be followed, and therefore that this request, as it must, will be quickly granted. Sincerely, Jon Randall McDonald P.S.--Please note that my original request for a Committee of Evidence was incorrectly dated "12 May 1996" instead of 12 June 1996, which is actually the correct date.

Also in strict accordance with policy, and with the Articles of Incorporation, and based on the official booklets quoted above, you are legally bound to grant this request, to grant it swiftly, to convene it as an HCO Area Committee of Evidence, to see that it completes its job within seven days, and to publish its findings and recommendations exactly according to HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF." In specific, let me address each relevant part of the Policy Letters (Scientology Scripture): "...(A) person or group may be falsely labeled a Suppressive Person or Group." I assert that this is the case: that I have been falsely labeled, and that, given any fair hearing before an impartial body, I can prove beyond any doubt that I have been falsely labeled. The McDonald Papers "Should the person or group claim the label to be false..." I do so hereby emphatically claim the label to be false. "...he, she or they may request a Committee of Evidence via their nearest Continental Justice Chief." I do so hereby request a Committee of Evidence. You are my nearest Continental Justice Chief, so this is going via you. I also completed my last service at CC Nashville, and so am a parishioner on CC Nashville's lines, and so am properly within your jurisdiction per HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF." "The executive with the power to convene a Committee of Evidence must do so if one is requested for recourse or redress of wrongs." I do so hereby request the Committee of Evidence for recourse and for redress of wrongs. Per the Policy (Scientology Scripture), as quoted above, this request must be granted based on this request alone. No other qualifications or conditions can be imposed, and to impose any other condition is to introduce an arbitrary and to therefore be in violation of the Scripture, and to therefore be in violation of the Articles of Incorporation and the law. To quote the policy again, for clarity: "The executive with the power to convene a Committee of Evidence must do so if one is requested for recourse or redress of wrongs." L. RON HUBBARD Per HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF," this requested Committee of Evidence is fully within the purview and authority of you, as CJC EUS, and CC Nashville: "HCO AREA COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE "The Convening Authority is the HCO Executive or Area Secretary in the sphere of a specific central organization or city office. It handles any matters referred to it by its convening authority. These may include all matters relating to the suspension or cancellation of certificates... . It also handles ALL disputes with field auditors, students, preclears, and members of the public." (Emphasis added) L. RON HUBBARD Per these policies, the Committee of Evidence is to be convened in Nashville at Celebrity Centre where I was most recently a student, and where I am a member of the public. That is in accordance with these policies. It is also necessary because: a) I live here. I am within the jurisdiction of EUS. b) I am a parishioner on CC Nashville's lines. The McDonald Papers c) My livelihood and the livelihood of my family (wife and four children)depend utterly and exclusively on my income. And my income depends utterly and exclusively on my being here on a daily basis, since I freelance and am on-call constantly for my clients. I am right now under intense deadline on several very large projects that span several months, and that require my regular, frequent interaction with the clients and agencies who have contracted me to do the work. Since I was contracted based on my unique designs and particular talents (winning these contracts over other designers), it is specifically my personal talents and abilities that are being paid for. My business is called "Randy McDonald Creative Services." I do not have staff to delegate my creative work to; that's not what a freelance designer does. Therefore I do not have the luxury of taking even several days away from my work. When I did it last year to attend a Comm Ev in L.A., I lost work that was vital to me, and as a result I am still, at this very writing, trying to make up lost ground. I am in a very competitive business and time-intensive business, and though I have established myself well with several of the agencies and larger firms in this area, there are plenty of other designers vying for my business. To not be available when needed on deadlines is the kiss of death for my profession. The projects that I am right now contracted for and heavily working on demand my presence. If I am not here to make client changes, to art direct photography, to produce and deliver layouts on the schedules I have already committed to, it will effectively destroy my professional reputation with these clients and agencies and would lay me open to suit. d) Therefore any period of time away from my work would be disastrous to my established trade and income and to the survival of my family. e) There is no reason whatsoever to convene the Committee of Evidence anywhere else; any such requirement would constitute the introduction of an arbitrary IN VIOLATION OF THE SCIENTOLOGY SCRIPTURE AND IN VIOLATION OF THE LAW, a very destructive arbitrary which would place an unnecessary and overwhelming burden on me and my family, and would render the realization of actual recourse and justice in this matter impossible for me to attain. f) The executives and staff at CC Nashville are fully competent to apply Scientology Justice policies and to conduct a Committee of Evidence standardly and on-policy. g) Per the policy referenced at the top of this request: "It is wise for any Scientologist, HCO Secretary or Committee of Evidence in matters concerning Suppressive Acts to obtain valid documents, letters, testimonies duly signed and witnessed, affidavits duly sworn to and other matters and evidences which would have weight in a court of law. Momentary spite, slander suits, charges of Scientology separating families, etc, are then guarded against." If this policy is going to be applied fairly, justly, and correctly, then any evidence that anyone claims to have against me can be delivered to the Committee in the forms specified above. For the many reasons stated above, all exactly in accordance with Policy (Scientology Scripture), I request that the Committee of The McDonald Papers Evidence be convened and held at CC Nashville. It is my belief, based on events of the last several months, that there will be an effort from some quarter to force me to go to L.A. if I want a Committee of Evidence. I say this based on the fact that Kurt Weiland, D/CO of OSA Int, has made repeated efforts in recent weeks to get me to "come to L.A. and talk face-to-face" (traffic on file). As this kind of "handling" (for standard reports I have written) is nowhere in Policy, and as it would have placed an impossible burden on me and on my family--logistically, financially, and professionally--I steadfastly declined his invitations to "come to L.A.," despite the fact that part of the duress placed on me to do so was the threat of being declared if I didn't (also on file). Since this threat has now been made good, it would surprise me if there were not, now, an arbitrary entered in: that the only place I can get a Committee of Evidence is in L.A. This, of course, would be an arbitrary and nothing but, as a reading of policies on Committees of Evidence will reveal. There simply is no supportable reason why I should be uprooted from my home, my job, my family, and forced to travel 2,000 miles, and to stay away from my work and livelihood for an indeterminate amount of time, in order to face a Committee of Evidence and deal with any actual evidence against me--if there is any. The tired old trick of saying it will have to be in L.A. for "security reasons" may be trotted out--without, of course, providing any substantive basis for why "security" should be a consideration. Well, I sure don't have anything to hide. Does somebody else? If not, then the Committee of Evidence will be convened in Nashville, where it makes sense to have it, and where Justice can surely and without question be accomplished. As part of this request for recourse and redress of wrongs, I would like to state that the Declare is composed exclusively of generalities, half-truths, and utter, fabricated falsehoods. It is slander of the most heinous and despicable sort. It makes the National Enquirer look like a model of truth-in-print. It is, itself, a sick mockery of HCO PL 2 June 1965, "WRITING OF AN ETHICS ORDER." Therefore it is already a violation of Policy (Scientology Scripture), and so is, itself a violation of the Articles of Incorporation and of the law. Examples: 1) "He (McDonald) went so far as to publically support infiltrators and attackers of the Church."--Not one specific is given, because this is a bald-faced lie that cannot be supported. 2) "Not surprisingly, he has complained that he makes no case gain."--Another completely fabricated lie. My files are full of rave success stories about the amazing, untold, miraculous wins I have had from Life Repair, ARC Straightwire, Objectives, Full Drug Rundown, Standard Dianetics, The Primary Rundown, M-1 Word Clearing, The Purification Rundown, ALL Expanded Grades, attesting to Clear, the HQS, Admin and Ethics courses and hats...on and on. I owe my very existence to LRH and to his miraculous technology; I have never uttered one word to the contrary, and have never experienced anything short of miracles from any Dianetics or Scientology. Whoever says otherwise is a black-souled liar, and I pray for the The McDonald Papers opportunity to tell them that to their face. 3) "Instead he chose to blow from the Sea Org, along with his wife."--Yet another complete lie. A 1987 Committee of Evidence at CC Int verified that we didn't blow. We were Fitness Boarded out of the Sea Org. It would be easy to go on, point-by-point, but that is the job of the Committee. I include these examples merely to show to what lengths someone has gone to try and paint me in the worst possible light, without regard to truth--a clear violation of Policy (Scientology Scripture), and therefore of the Articles of Incorporation, and therefore of the law. Therefore I write this request so that you have an opportunity to get these unfounded and unconscionable accusations against me examined immediately by an impartial body and and get the truth published and undo this heinous breech of the Scripture. I therefore urgently recommend that the Committee, in accordance with policy, be convened swiftly, and, also per policy, that it complete its investigation within the proscribed seven days. The false and slanderous allegations made against me in this Declare have already had serious repercussions on my family and on my profession, and these can only become compounded the longer this gross injustice is allowed to stand uncorrected. Finally, I demand that HCO PL 23 December 1965RB, "SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND, SCIENTOLOGISTS," as Scripture, be applied correctly. Part of that includes the following: "Also, until a suppressive person or group is absolved, BUT NOT DURING THE PERIOD WHEN THE PERSON REQUESTS AND HAS A COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE, or an amnesty occurs, no Scientology ethics other then this HCO Policy Letter applies to such persons...." (Emphasis added) L. RON HUBBARD This has already been violated in efforts to cut off my lines for submitting reports, forbidding me to communicate with others (necessary in order that I might gather data about the false reports and slander that have been widely circulated about me), forbidding others to communicate with me, etc., ALL since my original request for this Committee (dated 12 June) was submitted and received by IJC. I demand that these illegal orders to others and to myself be cancelled immediately, and that you operate in accordance with this Policy (Scientology Scripture) as you are BOUND to do by the Articles of Incorporation and the law. I assert that this means that the entire body of Scripture regarding ethics is fully in force in relation to me during the period from now until the Committee of Evidence has been properly convened, has finished its job within the proscribed seven days, and has had its findings and recommendations actually published. ANY effort to deny me the recourse and freedom guaranteed by the entire body of those policies (Scientology Scripture) will be documented as evidence of willful violation of these relevant scriptures, violations of the Articles of Incorporation, and violation of corporate and criminal law. The McDonald Papers As this matter is of the utmost concern to me and to you, I am FAXing this for speed. I would appreciate it if you could acknowledge receipt of this letter by return FAX. My FAX number is: (615) 367-3896. To send a FAX to that number, it is not necessary to listen on a handset for a FAX tone; simply dial the number and start transmission. Thank you for your swift attention to this request. I am confident that policy (Scientology Scripture) will be followed, and therefore that this request, as it must, will be quickly granted. Sincerely, Jon Randall McDonald P.S.--Please note that my original request for a Committee of Evidence was incorrectly dated "12 May 1996" instead of 12 June 1996, which is actually the correct date.

The McDonald Papers ------------------------------------------------------------------Int Justice Chief 17 June PO I Matthew Veenker cc: LC CCI cc: Stephen Mitchell KNOWLEDGE REPORT STEPHEN MITCHELL I intercepted the attached "KR" from Stephen Mitchell, which he had mailed to Celebrity Centre Nashville "Attn HCO Area Sec." This KR is inaccurate in that it claims John Randall MacDonald was declared for requesting a reference, when in fact MacDonald's list of crimes against the Church is long and well-documented. These details are fully described in the SP Declare issue on MacDonald. Further, Stephen has enclosed his Doubt announcement disavowing by name and and post title Scientologists in good standing, clearly committing the Suppressive Act of "Public disavowal of Scientology or Scientologists in good standing with Scientology organizations." Stephen's attempt to mail his "KR" to Celebrity Centre Nashville (and I assume to other Churches as well) is obviously a direct attempt to enturbulate other Scientology activities instead of clearing up his own upsets and confusions on correct comm lines with authorized Ethics and Qual terminals.

This policy letter specifically states: "Nothing in this policy letter shall ever or under any circumstances justify any violation of the laws of the land or intentional legal wrongs. Any such offense shall subject the offender to penalties prescribed by law as well as to ethics and justice actions." L. RON HUBBARD The McDonald Papers You have violated my own, and others', civil and constitutional rights by using duress, slander and extortion against my social and professional associates to deny our rights of free association and free speech. You have also used slander and libel to jeapordize the advancement of my professional pursuits. This is no part of standard Scientology or the Scientology scripture. You have used this same slander and libel to sully my reputation with mere acquaintences of mine. If you are on this routing, you have crossed state lines to carry out these criminal activities, or have ordered others to cross state lines to carry out these criminal activities, or have otherwise been an accomplice to those who have crossed state lines to engage in these criminal activities. This places you under federal jurisdiction, and makes these federal offenses. I am serving this notice on you that you are engaged in felonious activity in order to provide you with an opportunity to correct it swiftly. By 10:00 p.m. Central Standard Time, on this date, 18 June 1996, I will expect written confirmation that: 1. 2. All such criminal activity has ceased. All persons who have been contacted personally in Nashville and ordered not to communicate with me, or who have been shown false and slanderous information, or who have been given such false and slanderous information verbally, have been contacted personally again and been briefed: a. that the information originally given to them was false and slanderous, that I will be receiving a Committee of Evidence, and, that until that is done, there is no reason whatsoever that they can't associate and communicate freely with me. b. c. I am operating, for now, on the possibility that you were not aware of your violations of the law. Of course that is no excuse. But I am giving you this notice, and this grace period to extricate yourselves from being accomplices if you were mislead, duped, or coerced into cooperating in these illegal activities. However, having given you this notification, if I do not receive such a written confirmation, then INTENT will be added to the charges, and, pursuant to the above quote from the Scientology scripture ("Any such offense shall subject the offender to penalties proscribed by law..."), your names will be added to an existing complaint addressed to the Attorney General of the United States detailing federal felony acts (which complaint may or may not be sent, The McDonald Papers according to the events that ensue over the next few days). (NOTE: D/CO OSA Int is already a named principle in the complaint for other clear violations of Church scripture and federal law. His name will remain on the complaint for now, independent of this immediate situation.) If you choose to get this written confirmation to me, you may FAX it to (615) 367-3896. If you choose to bring it to my house, call (615) 367-1354 first for permission. Otherwise, you will be treated as a trespasser. I advise that each individual named on the routing should individually attest that they have ceased their illegal actions against me and others, for their own protection from possible prosecution. Apologies will be accepted and will be afforded due consideration in any future action on this matter. Sincerely, Jon Randall McDonald encl. The McDonald Papers ( 29 ) 21 June 1996 Darwin: Yep, they did it. Ordered me to L.A. Again. And of course I use the word "they" advisedly. I know exactly, now, who the main players are. Okay. I see the light. There's no point. It is set up iron-clad to make sure that I never have an opportunity to get a fair hearing. It's been a good run at it, though, hasn't it. Since there is no possible way I could go to L.A. right now even if I wanted to (which Sternson well knew), I will have the book thrown at me and it will all be over but the goldenrod. And I know where that golden rod is aimed. I am composing queries to the orders for both FCO 12212 and 12212-1 as a matter of form. I believe I will also be disconnecting from the main characters of this base amorality play. I am also writing one final High Crime report on Al Sternson which will lay out a summary of the events of recent months and show how those events clearly evidence a concerted and coordinated effort at obstruction of justice.

The McDonald Papers At the outset, let me remind you of the provisions of HCO Policy Letter of 7 June 1965, Issue II ENTHETA LETTERS AND THE DEADFILE, HANDLING OF, which states: "An ENTHETA LETTER = a letter containing insult, discourtesy, chop or nastiness about an org. its personnel, Scientology or the principal figures in Scientology. "A MIXED LETTER = is a letter which is an entheta letter (couched in nasty terms to the org or its personnel) which also contains a report pretending to be an Ethics report." Entheta letters and mixed letters are deadfiled. Your recent communication are, at best, mixed letters, so please keep the above policy letter in mind in any further communications Nevertheless, to afford you an opportunity to address the validity of your Suppressive Person Declare with any actual evidence that you have not committed the Suppressive Acts contained therein, I have convened the Committee of Evidence you have requested and a copy of the Bill of Particulars is enclosed. The Committee will be conducting itself according to the provisions of HCO Policy Letter of 7 September 1963, COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF, so I suggest you familiarize yourself with this policy letter and the other policy letters concerning Committees of Evidence contained in OEC Volume O. The Committee will convene in Los Angeles on June 26th, 1996 at 8 p.m. at the address indicated in the Bill of Particulars. The Committee will be expeditiously carried out to alleviate any concerns about your absence from Nashville. Los Angeles is the appropriate venue, given the conduct and allegations at issue. The Non Enturbulation Order (the violation of which resulted in the Suppressive Person Declare) was issued in Los Angeles for acts committed in Los Angeles and all witnesses and evidence originated from Los Angeles. The International Justice Chief, located in LA, is the appropriate and per policy Convening Authority and per HCOPL 23 DEC 65RB, SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS as noted above, the Interested Party ""attend(s) where it convenes." Further, to tie up CC Nashville in this matter when en it does not concern matters relevant to the Nashville CC and you have not been an onlines public or active field member there, would place an undue burden on them. You are to come prepared with all documentation you wish to present to the Committee. This should include any evidence you feel refutes the charges contained in the Bill of Particulars, all evidence of contributions to Scientology on your part, as well as any evidence that you have applied the technology of Ethics to sort out your situation. Finally, according to HCO Policy Letter of 21 December 1965RB, SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS: The McDonald Papers "Until a suppressive person or group is absolved or until permitted to actively engage in the training required in point C, as duly authorized and published, his, her, or their only Scientology terminal is the International Justice Chief, via the Continental Justice Chief, or members of a duly authorized and convened Committee of Evidence. "A suppressive declare order upon a person or group and all of the conditions inherent within it remain in force until the order has been officially canceled by an authorized and published Church issue." In other words, you are being given the hearing you have requested, so you should observe the dictates of policy and cease sending any further communications of the character of the ones you have been sending. To date they have not been deadfiled, but that is the case out of an overwhelming sense of accomodation (sic) and tolerance for justice being served. Such tolerance has now been consumed by your tone and your taunting. I hope you recognize the opportunity you are being given and will not abuse it. At any time, you do have the option of canceling your request for a Committee of Evidence and apply steps A to E of HCO Policy Letter of 23 December 196SRB, SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS. Should you wish to do so, I am, of course, prepared to assist you. Sincerely, Al Sternson International Justice Chief Church of Scientology International 6331 HOLLYWOOD BLVD.

Tampering with a witness, victim, or an informant ... (b) Whoever knowingly uses intimidation or physical force, threatens, or corruptly persuades another person, or attempts to do so, or engages in misleading conduct toward another person, with intent to... The McDonald Papers (3) hinder, delay, or prevent the communication to a law enforcement officer or judge of the United States of information relating to the commission or possible commission of a Federal offense...shall be fined not more than $250,000 or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both. (c) Whoever intentionally harasses another person and thereby hinders, delays, prevents, or dissuades any person from... 2) reporting to a law enforcement officer or judge of the United States the commission or possible commission of a Federal offense... ... 4) causing a criminal prosecution...to be sought or instituted, or assisting in such prosecution or proceeding; or attempts to do so, shall be fined not more than $25,000 or imprisoned not more than one year, or both. ... e) For the purposes of this section (1) an official proceeding need not be pending or about to be instituted at the time of the offense; and 2) the testimony, or the record, document, or other object need not be admissible in evidence or free of a claim of privilege. ... --------------------------------------------------------------They have knowingly conspired to suppress and conceal, from Scientologists, from law enforcement officials, and from any other concerned parties, prima-facie evidence of fraud, mail fraud, and extortion perpetrated by David Miscavige, the Chairman of the Board of Religious Technology Center, using the expediency of fraudulent "policy" called Scientology Policy Directives (SPDs). This evidence, accumulated over nearly two years, was summated in a 21-page High Crime report I wrote, dated 7 March 1996. This report was sent to IJC. Instead of investigating and reporting the federal felonies that were thoroughly documented in the report, IJC Al Sternson has conspired with others, particularly at OSA Int and at RTC, to suppress this report, and to intensify a campaign designed to threaten, intimidate, and thoroughly discredit me and several other concerned parishioners who were writing reports addressing these crimes. That campaign to threaten, intimidate, and discredit me and others had begun as early as July 7, 1995, when a false, illegal, and fraudulent "Non-Enturbulation Order" was issued that included my name among others. This order was based on the fraudulent type of issue called a "Scientology Policy Directive." The order contained fabricated lies and slanders which the writer, and the people who approved the order (each of them operating under the color of a 501 (c)(3) corporation), knew to be false--in violation of 18 USC S1001: ---------------------------------------------------------------UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES The McDonald Papers CHAPTER 47 - FRAUD AND FALSE STATEMENTS S 1001. Statements or entries generally Whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States knowingly and willfully falsifies, conceals or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact, or makes any false, fictitious or fraudulent statements or representations, or makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any false, fictitious or fraudulent statement or entry, shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both. ---------------------------------------------------------------In fact, it was subsequently admitted in a Scientology Justice proceeding--a Committee of Evidence--that there was no evidence whatsoever against me to support any of the claims made in the non-enturbulation order. That admission was made by the Chairman of the Committee, Wayne Carnahan, who was, at the time, the Commanding Officer of OSA U.S. That admission is on file, inn a tape recording I made of the committee meeting. In a brief exchange from that tape, reproduced below, I went on to comment on how ludicrous this was under Scientology jurisprudence: McDONALD: "I came here certainly prepared, hopefully, to answer any charges against me." CARNAHAN: "Right. ..." McDONALD: "I came here, also, to see--because, as I said in my write-up to you, I haven't seen any K.R.'s (Knowledge Reports), I haven't seen anything whatsoever as evidence that I've done any of these things, and I cannnot comprehend why something from the Hubbard Communication Office, with the force and weight of that--Ethics Section--would bear my name, with charges against me, if there weren't some evidence or report that I had done some of these things. I just--I don't know in my experience in Scientology...that a Committee of Evidence would be called and somebody's name be put on it unless there was some evidence ..." Yet there was none. None. The committee had not one written report, not one witness, to support any of the false allegations that had been made in the non-enturbulation order. The findings and recommendations of that committee, though, have never been allowed to see the light of day. They have been suppressed, in supreme violation of Scientology scripture, as part of the conspiracy to conceal the crimes of David Miscavige. And it has required a conspiracy to keep those findings suppressed. This is further violation of 18 USC S1512. Since that is a federal offense, and since the corporations involved all operate under the requirements and restrictions of 501 (c)(3), this also constitutes a violation of 18 USC S 371: ---------------------------------------------------------------UNITED STATES CODE The McDonald Papers TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES CHAPTER 19 - CONSPIRACY S 371. Conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud United States If two or more persons conspire either to commit any offense against the United States, or to defraud the United States, or any agency thereof in any manner or for any purpose, and one or more of such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both. ... ---------------------------------------------------------------The suppression of those findings led to my writing and submitting the 7 March 1996 report. Since then I have been subjected to threats and coercion (all on file) to force me to travel to Los Angeles by interstate carrier (imposed by the time limitations given to me) and be detained there against my will. This was an attempted violation of 18 USC S 1201 (c): -----------------------------------------------------------UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES CHAPTER 55 - KIDNAPING S 1201. Kidnaping (a) Whoever unlawfully seizes, confines, inveigles, decoys, kidnaps, abducts, or carries away and holds for ransom or reward or otherwise any person...when (1) the person is willfully transported in interstate or foreign commerce; ...shall be punished by imprisonment for any term of years or for life. (b) With respect to subsection (a)(1), above, the failure to release the victim within twenty-four hours after he shall have been unlawfully seized, confined, inveigled, decoyed, kidnaped, abducted, or carried away shall create a rebuttable presumption that such person has been transported to interstate or foreign commerce. (c) If two or more persons conspire to violate this section and one or more of such persons do any overt act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each shall be punished by imprisonment for any term of years or for life. ... ---------------------------------------------------------------The overt attempts to force me to Los Angeles against my will failed. But part of the threat used in that coercive attempt was the threat of declaring me a Suppressive Person if I didn't come to Los Angeles (effectively, denying me the freedom to practice my religion). This is no part of the practice of standard Scientology. The McDonald Papers This is an abusive and unconscionable attempt at kidnaping, using the threat of denial of Scientology services to exert force against me. And when I didn't knuckle under to the threat, that threat was made good. On 11 June 1996, a Suppressive Person declare was issued on me by IJC Al Sternson, and was sent to all Scientology organizations. This is a false and fraudulent document, in further violation of 18 USC 1001, built entirely out of lies, generalities, and half-truths. The lies are so transparent and easily proven false that it demonstrates the desperation of those trying to conceal the federal felony crimes of David Miscavige, and their desperate need to discredit me by any means possible. As merely one example, IJC Al Sternson, in the Declare order, states: "He (McDonald) also complains about Church policy, writing lengthy 'reports' calculated only to enturbulate..." Yet the Chairman of the earlier Committee of Evidence (whose findings were suppressed by IJC) said during the committee meeting: CARNAHAN: "I see you genuinely want to handle this. That's what I see in your reports." Even more damning, IJC Al Sternson cannot produce one single report where I ever complain about Church policy; he knows, with certainty, that I only ever wrote reports on Scientology Policy Directives (SPDs), which he and David Miscavige fraudulently claim to be Church policy when they are not. In fact, SPDs are the main, if not sole, vehicle through which Miscavige, Sternson, and others named in this report have been able to effect massive fraud, mail fraud, and extortion--all federal offenses enumerated in earlier reports on this subject. If actual Church policy (as written by L. Ron Hubbard) were followed, such crimes would be impossible. Further, in order to trump up anything to put in the Declare at all, IJC Al Sternson had to render the sacred amnesties of our religion null and void. I had most recently accepted an amnesty in early 1994, and an earlier one in 1986. I have, on file, the official notifications from the church that my acceptance of the amnesties had been duly recorded, and that I had received forgiveness for all prior transgressions. Yet, in a putrid, despicable display of disdain for our most basic tenets, IJC Al Sternson dredged up these ancient transgressions, exaggerated, generalized, falsified, and sensationalized even those, and paraded them out. But the crimes of David Miscavige had to be concealed at all cost. Unfortunately, once criminal activity begins, it requires more and more criminal activity to cover it up. And so the situation deteriorated rapidly--for those bent on committing criminal acts. Soon after the Suppressive Person Declare was issued on me, without scriptural foundation, people were sent (across state lines) to The McDonald Papers Nashville by IJC Al Sternson, and/or OSA Int, and/or David Miscavige, and/or others, in order to spread the lies about me to my friends and professional associates, and to demand that they (my friends and professional associates) cease all communication with me. This was all in violation of 18 USC S 241: ---------------------------------------------------------------UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES CHAPTER 13 - CIVIL RIGHTS S 241. Conspiracy against rights If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any inhabitant of any State, Territory, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; ... They shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results, they shall be subject to imprisonment for any term of years or for life. ---------------------------------------------------------------Even though I was declared a Suppressive Person without foundation, and without ever having the proper Ethics gradients applied to me (according to the dictates of the scripture), yet these people had been sent to enforce the order that I not communicate with other Scientologists, and that I be denied access to my church or any church official--except IJC Al Sternson, who was the chief perpetrator of this crime against me. This was in flagrant violation of 18 USC S 247: ---------------------------------------------------------------UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES CHAPTER 13 - CIVIL RIGHTS S 247. Damage to religious property; obstruction of persons in the free exercise of religious beliefs (a) Whoever, in any of the circumstances referred to in subsection (b) of this section ... (2) intentionally obstructs, by force or threat of force, any person in the enjoyment of that person's free exercise of religious beliefs, or attempts to do so; shall be punished as provided in subsection (c) of this section. (b) The circumstances referred to in subsection (a) are that 1) in committing the offense, the defendant travels in interstate or foreign commerce, or uses a facility or instrumentality of interstate or foreign commerce in interstate or foreign commerce; and (2) in the case of an offense under subsection (a)(1), the loss resulting from the defacement, damage, or destruction The McDonald Papers is more than $10,000. (c) The punishment for a violation of subsection (a) of this section shall be (1) if death results, a fine in accordance with this title and imprisonment for any term of years or for life, or both; (2) if serious bodily injury results, a fine in accordance with this title and imprisonment for not more than ten years, or both; and (3) in any other case, a fine in accordance with this title and imprisonment for not more than one year, or both. ... ---------------------------------------------------------------Since these people who were here in Nashville had been ordered here, their presence established without question a conspiracy to violate my civil and constitutional rights, all based on false and fraudulent charges against me. This conspiracy had one overriding purpose: to discredit me completely and to cut off all lines of communication to prevent anyone from finding out about the crimes of David Miscavige. So this was further obstruction of justice, 18 USC S 1512, and was further evidence and affirmation of continuing violations of 18 USC S 241, S 371, and S 1001. I demanded recourse. I demanded in writing that these violations of my rights be ceased immediately and that I be given written confirmation that all such criminal activity had ceased. No such confirmation was ever forthcoming. (And later events involving Matthew Veenker, described below, proved that they did not stop.) I requested a Committee of Evidence--my right according to the scripture. IJC Al Sternson found a technicality to try and deny that Committee of Evidence (letter on file): a further effort to obstruct justice. He knew that if a fair Committee of Evidence were convened, and its findings actually published, that the truth about David Miscavige's crimes would come out. He had, after all, suppressed the findings of the earlier Committee of Evidence. I reiterated my rights in a way that he could no longer dodge. Part of my request was that the Committee of Evidence be held in Nashville, where I live and work. Requesting that was actually only a formality. There was no need to request that, because it is actually required by the scripture. Per HCO PL 7 September AD13, "COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF": "HCO AREA COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE "The Convening Authority is the HCO Executive or Area Secretary in the sphere of a specific central organization or city office. It handles any matters referred to it by its convening authority. These may include all matters relating to the suspension or cancellation of certificates... . It also handles ALL disputes with field auditors, students, preclears, and members of the public." (Emphasis added) L. RON HUBBARD The McDonald Papers The operative word is "all." "All" means "every." "Every" means "without exception." But IJC Al Sternson decided to make an exception in my case, and, in doing so, further violated the above referenced scripture, and again attempted kidnaping. Without consulting me as to my professional scheduling, with nothing but the most specious and hollow reasoning, he ordered that the Committee of Evidence be convened on me IN LOS ANGELES. His "reasoning" for convening it in L.A., stated in a letter to me dated 22 June 1996 (but not Faxed to me until 23 June 1996), was: "The Non Enturbulation Order (the violation of which resulted in the Suppressive Person Declare) was issued in Los Angeles for acts committed in Los Angeles and all witnesses and evidence originated in Los Angeles." Yet he knew this was a lie. He knew this because: 1. The only possible applicable period for any alleged offenses committed in L.A. could only be between early 1994 (when I accepted the amnesty) and October 1994, when I moved to Nashville. 2. The 1995 Committee of Evidence (held in L.A.), with Wayne Carnahan as Chairman, had proven conclusively that there was NOT ONE SHRED OF EVIDENCE AGAINST ME, NOR ANY WITNESS AGAINST ME, FOR ANY OF THE ALLEGATIONS IN THE NON-ENTURBULATION ORDER. This admission is on tape. And IJC Al Sternson had suppressed the findings and recommendations of that Committee. 3. IJC Al Sternson knew that the non-enturbulation order was a fraud to begin with, based solely on the fraudulent issue type known as SPD. But any lie, any trick, any artifice was okay with IJC Al Sternson, as long as it served his primary purpose: to prevent justice from occuring and conceal the crimes of David Miscavige and others. IJC Al Sternson also knew that another trip to L.A. would destroy me and my family professionally and financially. He knew, because I had laid it out in fine detail in my request, that I could not possibly come to Los Angeles without defaulting on contractual obligations I have here, destroying my professional reputation with my clients and laying me open to civil suit. He knew that any such trip would be financially and logistically and professionally disastrous to me and to my family. I had told him this, because it is true. I predicted, in my request, that some effort would be made, again, to force me, against my will, to travel to Los Angeles. And IJC Al Sternson, in complete disregard for my professional situation and the survival of my family and complete disregard for the scripture, ordered that I come to Los Angeles if I wanted to get "justice," Al Sternson's brand. The McDonald Papers IJC Al Sternson well knows that, per the scripture referenced above: "Refusal or failure of an Interested Party to appear results in a recommendation of the full penalty possible in the case for that Interested Party." And so this was yet another transparent ploy to obstruct justice and to ensure that I would never get a fair hearing. (If I did, David Miscavige's federal crimes would become known!) But IJC Al Sternson even went further to ensure no possibility of the facts ever being seen or heard: 1. The Bill of Particulars is dated 21 June. 2. My copy wasn't Faxed to me until 23 June (date-stamped on the FAX). 3. In an accompanying letter, IJC Al Sternson says that "The Committee will convene in Los Angeles on June 26th, 1996 at 8 p.m." 4. The last paragraph of the Bill of Particulars says "The Committee's Findings and Recommendations are to be submitted in issuable form to the Convening Authority WITHIN SEVEN DAYS OF THE ISSUANCE OF THIS BILL OF PARTICULARS." (Emphasis added.) Since the date of issuance is 21 June, that would mean that the Findings and Recommendations would have to be to the Convening Authority no later than 28 June. Since the Committee is not to convene until 8 p.m. on 26 June, that would give them (four people) only about 24 hours to review two years' worth of accumulated reports and evidence, to hear all witnesses (well, IJC Al Sternson said there were witnesses as part of his excuse for having it in Los Angeles), and to formulate full, fair findings and recommendations and get them into publishable form. Having served on about six Committees of Evidence, I know that this is laughable. It would be laughable, that is, if it weren't just one more effort to obstruct justice in flagrant violation of 18 USC S1512. It would be laughable if it weren't a federal offense. It would be laughable if it weren't all a part of a conspiracy to hide the crimes of David Miscavige. But it is. IJC Al Sternson and his co-conspirators have made themselves principals in Miscavige's crimes, per 18 USC S2: ---------------------------------------------------------------UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES CHAPTER 1 - GENERAL PROVISIONS S 2. Principals The McDonald Papers (a) Whoever commits an offense against the United States or aids, abets, counsels, commands, induces or procures its commission, is punishable as a principal. (b) Whoever willfully causes an act to be done which if directly performed by him or another would be an offense against the United States, is punishable as a principal. ---------------------------------------------------------------And now IJC Al Sternson has even become involved in concealing the federal crime of obstruction of mail in his criminal effort to hide the crimes of David Miscavige. In a signed confession, titled as a "Knowledge Report," Matthew Veenker admits that he intercepted U.S. mail that was sent to the HCO Area Secretary at Celebrity Centre Nashville by Stephen Mitchell. The mail in question contained testimony by Mitchell that corroborated my reports on the federal felony crimes of David Miscavige. Veenker intercepted that corroborative testimony before it could get to the addressee, and sent it to IJC Al Sternson. This is yet another federal offense per 18 USC S1702: ---------------------------------------------------------------UNITED STATES CODE TITLE 18 - CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE PART I - CRIMES CHAPTER 83 - POSTAL SERVICE S 1702. Obstruction of correspondence Whoever takes any letter, postal card, or package out of any post office or any authorized depository for mail matter, or from any letter or mail carrier, or which has been in any post office or authorized depository, or in the custody of any letter or mail carrier, before it has been delivered to the person to whom it was directed, with design to obstruct the correspondence, or to pry into the business or secrets of another, or opens, secretes, embezzles, or destroys the same, shall be fined not more than $2,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both. ---------------------------------------------------------------Now IJC is covering up that federal offense, too, and his involvement in it, as part of the cover-up of David Miscavige's felonies. Where and when will it stop? Not until David Miscavige, and those who have conspired to protect him, have been brought to book for their egregious crimes against L. Ron Hubbard, against Scientologists, against the people of the United States, and against mankind. These are the most arrogant, disdainful, amoral, soulless criminals imaginable. They hide beneath the mantle of religious leaders while using every wile and device, and all the great power of the Church, to render helpless and crush any who would expose them. They care not for families. They even have implemented a form of genocide within their own ranks, ordering that none among them have children (the subject of a separate report). The McDonald Papers My own daughter wrote a heartfelt plea to IJC Al Sternson, asking if he could "fix all this." His response to this beautiful, intelligent, caring 7-year old? None. Nothing. No response. Arrogance. Disdain. Criminality. Protected by the cloak of religion. And now IJC Al Sternson has turned his venom on Stephen Mitchell and Steven's family. Within the last 36 hours, Stephen's young daughter, Morgan, was told she couldn't attend her Brownie troop any more, because her father "had been declared." Heartsick, the girl called to speak to one of my sons, seeking the guidance of a friend who had also been rendered a social pariah among his Scientology peers by virtue of association with his father. Of course, this is also a federal offense, because the activity she has been ostracized from is a federally protected program, and there can be no discrimination based on religion. But it has happened because of the great power wielded by these base criminals from their protected positions. What sick, sick criminals could render this kind of "justice." Fortunately, they are really only a few. David Miscavige, true to the HCOB "The Criminal Mind," has surrounded himself with loyal lieutenants who will go to any criminal lengths to mutually reinforce "their own distorted ideas of man in general." But they are few. And they WILL be exposed. But how many more will suffer before they are? Their actions are uniformly exactly as described by L. Ron Hubbard: "There are two uses (violently opposed to each other) to which Scn orgs can be put. They are: "1. To forward the advance of self and all dynamics toward total survival. "2. To use the great power and control of an org over others to defend oneself. "When a decent being goes to work in an org he uses 1. "When a suppressive goes to work in an org he uses 2. ..." L. Ron Hubbard HCO PL 1 October 1967, Admin Know-How--Uses of Orgs The handful named in this report are suppressive. And so they do use the great power and control of the orgs over others to defend self. But now they have gone too far. Now they have openly committed federal felonies, and their time is counted in days if not hours. They have perverted and twisted and abused the Affinity, Reality, and Communication of L. Ron Hubbard and of Scientologists one too many times. And as LRH said: "A true group must have a management which deals in The McDonald Papers affinity, reality and communication, and any group is totally within its rights, when a full and reasonable examination discloses management in fault of perverting or cutting ARC, of slaughtering, exiling or suspending that management. ARC is sacred." L. Ron Hubbard "An Essay on Management" The time has come to rid our church of vermin. This clique of criminals WILL be exposed. And so their time is measured in days if not hours. And good riddance when they are gone. Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers ( 32 ) 25 June 1996 Ace of Hearts: One of the two queries.

David Miscavige Al Sternson Kurt Weiland Mike Rinder Guillaume LeSevre 6. Matthew Veenker 7. Kirsten Thorne 8. Paul LaQuerre 9. Jim Morrow 10. Lyman Spurlock Their actions are in gross violation of the tenets Scientology, which is my chosen religious belief and practice. They are demonstrably guilty of Suppressive Acts against Scientology and Scientologists. I do not disconnect from any properly constituted and properly held staff or executive post in the church. I do not disconnect from or disavow any ethical Scientologist. I do not waive any of my rights as a Scientologist. I do not waive any of my rights to justice within Scientology or recourse within Scientology. I embrace and espouse, more strongly than ever, all the writings and teachings of L. Ron Hubbard, exactly as he wrote them. I only decry and disconnect from those individuals who, pretending to be Scientologists, instead use the great power of our religion over others to harm and destroy. The above named individuals, as individuals, have done this, and in doing so have altered and perverted Scientology technology, and, pretending to "apply Scientology," have instead selectively ignored the teachings of L. Ron Hubbard in order to carry out heinous and egregious violations of decency, honour, and of federal law. To these individuals: good-bye. Sincerely, Jon Randall McDonald The McDonald Papers ( 35 ) 28 June 1996 Aquarius: Here is the official epistle. See my summary letter of thanks to you all, dated 13 July, bringing down the curtain on this act in the tragedy. The McDonald Papers But I hear the second act is a comedy--at least in the classical sense. That would make a new art form, wouldn't it? You will also find my signed release. Godspeed. Randy -------------------------------------------------------------------SEA ORGANIZATION FLAG CONDITIONS ORDER 12212-2 LIMITED DISTRIBUTION THOSE CONCERNED 28 June 1996 COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS JON RANDALL MCDONALD FINDINGS: JON RANDALL MCDONALD was declared a Suppressive Person by Flag Conditions Order 12212. Following this, McDonald requested a Committee of Evidence concerning his Suppressive Person Declare pursuant to HCO Policy Letter of 23 December 1965RB, SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS. A Committee of Evidence was convened on 21 June 1996, as issued in Flag Conditions Order 12212-1 of the same date. The Committee was to look into the charges contained in the Suppressive Person Declare and investigate evidence to be presented by the Interested Party concerning these charges. The Bill of Particulars was faxed to McDonald on 23 June 1996 along with a letter from the International Justice Chief informing McDonald that he was being afforded the opportunity he had requested to address the validity of the Suppressive Person Declare by providing testimony and evidence to disprove the Suppressive Person Declare that had been issued. McDonald was further notified that, given the events and allegations contained in the Declare Order as well as the location of the witnesses, the Committee would convene in Los Angeles on June 26th at 8pm, and that McDonald was to appear before the Committee with any documentation he would wish to present. After requesting the Committee of Evidence, McDonald chose not to appear before the Committee and did not present any evidence or documentation for the Committee to examine in order to determine the validity of his claims. Instead of following the proper Church justice procedures as The McDonald Papers laid out in HCO PL 7 Sept 63, COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF, McDonald responded with three written communications, all faxed in at 6pm on 26 June -- one dated 24 June 1996, which was an 11-page tirade of entheta and threats. In the second, dated 25 June, McDonald queried his Declare Order. The third, dated 25 June 1996, was a "Letter of Disconnection" to Church officials, including the International Justice Chief. Having reviewed all data available as well as McDonald's own communications, the Committee finds the following: 1) McDonald failed to appear before the Committee to testify and present evidence with regards to the charges as contained in his Suppressive Person Declare. As covered in HCO PL 7 Sept 63, COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF, "Refusal or failure of an interested party to appear results in a recommendation of the full penalty possible in the case for that interested party." - LRH 2) McDonald did not contact the Committee to present evidence or documentation showing that the charges in his Suppressive Person Declare would be incorrect; instead, McDonald resorted to attacking those that offered him this recourse. He did not request an extension. He did not request to appear by phone. He did not request assistance to accommodate his travel arrangements although such assistance had previously been offered -- he simply refused to show up or participate in any fashion in the Committee of Evidence he had demanded be convened. 3) Despite his being reminded at the outset of this Committee of Evidence of the provisions of HCO Policy Letter of 7 June 1965, Issue II, ENTHETA LETTERS AND THE DEADFILE, HANDLING OF, McDonald continued to send such letters into the Church. In accordance with the above HCO policy letter, entheta letters are deadfi1ed and not acted upon. 4) McDonald sent a "letter of disconnection" to the International Justice Chief, thereby disconnecting from the Church authority responsible for the procedure of McDonald's Committee of Evidence. By this act, McDonald has placed himself outside the realm of any recourse that the Church, through its constituted authority (the International Justice Chief), can offer. In spite of the above, the Committee reviewed the documentation and evidence that was available to determine whether or not the charges as contained in Flag Conditions Order 12212 were correct. RECOMMENDATIONS: The Suppressive Person Declare of JON RANDALL MCDONALD, set forth in Flag Conditions Order 12212, and all the charges contained therein as listed below, are verified as correct.

The McDonald Papers ( 36 ) 29 June 1996 Ace of Spades: Al-Baby found my allegations of violations of federal law to be "meritless." He didn't add, "IANAL." I wonder why. I suppose it will ultimately be up to someone else to make that final adjudication. Here is his cover letter that came with my F&Rs.; Randy ----------------------------------------------------------------S E N I O R H C O I N T E R N A T I O N A L June 29, 1996 Jon Randall McDonald 3423 McGavock Pike Nashville, Tennessee 37217 Dear Mr. McDonald, In accordance with your request, a Committee of Evidence, FCO 12212-1, was held to look into the facts surrounding the issuance of Flag Conditions Order 12212, the Suppressive Person Declare regarding you. Enclosed are the approved Findings and Recommendations of this Committee of Evidence, issued as FCO 12212-2. One hour prior to the Committee's first meeting you faxed in several communications which were enturbulating and further evidence of your commission of crimes and high crimes. You complained about short notification of the Committee of Evidence meeting yet you were informed 3 days in advance. You complained about not having enough money to travel to Los Angeles yet you know that Kurt Weiland of the Office of Special Affairs International earlier offered to assist you in getting to LA to help you sort out your situation. You complained about the fact that the Committee of Evidence was being done within a 7 day period yet per HCO PL 7 September 1963 COMMITTEES OF EVIDENCE, SCIENTOLOGY JURISPRUDENCE, ADMINISTRATION OF The McDonald Papers the Findings and Recommendations are to be completed and submitted within 7 days and you had earlier specifically asked that this be adhered to. In short, your claims are preposterous and are on their face, to any well minded person, clearly further evidence that you have no intention to apply standard ethics and policy and that your actions are suppressive. Your allegations about violation of federal law are completely meritless. Your communications are enturbulating and will not be responded to. Any further communication from you, aside from legitimate application of Steps A-E as covered in HCO PL 23 December 1965RB, SUPPRESSIVE ACTS, SUPPRESSION OF SCIENTOLOGY AND SCIENTOLOGISTS will be deadfi1ed per HCO PL 7 June 1965 Issue II ENTHETA LETTERS AND THE DEADFILE, HANDLING OF. Sincerely, Al Sternson International Justice Chief 6331 HOLLYWOOD BLVD. LOS ANGELES CA 90028 The McDonald Papers ( 37 ) 13 July 1996 TO: FROM: Ace of Spades Randy McDonald Little John Darwin Aquarius Ace of Hearts Ace of Clubs Ace of Diamonds 13 July 1996 cc: Mookie Terpsichore Elf JD Dear All, One month later, and it is over. The notice came by snail mail. I am enclosing all the correspondence on this Boschesque saga. The Comm Ev made the term 'kangaroo court' obsolete, and an insult to Aussies. (Besides, my wife is one, and they are damned good people.) So, let's just say that I've been miscaviged. It should rank down there with disemboweling. You've all been quite patient with me, and would be well within your rights to put a billboard up in Times Square saying, "We told you so!" And now, as I promised, I enclose the document relinquishing all my rights in any and all correspondence or reports regarding RTC The McDonald Papers and its executives and staff, the Church of Scientology, and any and all related matters. I trust your judgement implicitly. I believe that this now must move out of its HCO phase and into a Dissemination phase. ARS is still like a frontier saloon, so my opinion is that it is not currently the forum for this information. The idea of a newsletter proposed by one of you sounds interesting. But of course I can't be connected with it in any way. I know how creative you are, so I know you will keep things sparking. It's also my opinion that, at least for a while, an effort should be made to keep the information confined to Scientologists, and not allow it to go far and wide. Perhaps if enough Scientologists become apprised of what is going on in their Church management, and what is being done to LRH's tech, enough of a hew and cry will be raised to actually get something effective accomplished. I know several of you believe me to be hopelessly Pollyana on this count. Maybe I am. But I believe that if the facts were known broadly enough within the Scientology community, things would change dramatically. The logistics involved in getting the facts known, and keeping it within that community, though, are daunting. And I already have indications, from several phone calls and the letter from Rueben Hart, that some of this information has already found circulation outside of Scientology. How broad, I don't know. Monitor the lines, and adjudicate your actions based on how other fronts are moving. You won't hear from me for a while. I feel honoured beyond expression by your faith and allegiance. Keep the ramparts manned. Randy The McDonald Papers ( 38 ) 13 July 1996 Dear All: Below is the text version of my release.
