FBI Complaint filed:organized scientology actions at airport

[SME]

Here is a quote from an earlier post I made about my recent trip to Hamburg to speak about some of the dangers of organized scientology. It has to do with what happened at an airport on my way over there:

“I left for Germany on September 2 flying from Manchester, NH to Newark, NJ where I changed planes and got on a flight to Hamburg. I had a fairly long layover in Newark. While I was waiting for my plane to Hamburg in Newark a man kept coming up to me for small talk. He seemed friendly enough but I could tell he had something to do with organized scientology just by how he acted. He went away a few times but just kept coming back to me to chat. Finally he handed me a paper and said that I seemed like a nice guy and that someone asked him to give me this paper.

I laughed and asked him who that might be that asked him to do this. He said “just someone” and then he hurried away. What it was was a photocopy of a two page report from “Freedom Magazine” in English about the upcoming Hamburg event which contained OSA’s version of information about Ursula, Anonymous, Christian Market, Jason, Marc, Graham and myself.

I believe that OSA was trying to scare me or something like that. Obviously they knew my flight schedule that was between the government of Hamburg and myself. They also were able to get a private eye through security at the airport to give me the papers when no one but ticketed passengers were supposed to be able to be where I was”. – end quote


Of interest is that organized scientology knew the flight schedules of three other people who were also going to Germany that day to speak at the same conference. Those three were also met at an airport and given materials by someone representing organized scientology.

While I do not know exactly how organized scientology got our private flight schedules and how, in my case, they arranged that someone get through airport security in Newark, NJ to get to me, I am a citizen concerned about these apparent breaches in airport security.

Therefore I have now filed a report with the US Federal Bureau of Investigation about this matter and have been interviewed by them. I left with them a letter from me and two documents. The first document was the one I was given by the scientology agent at the airport in Newark. The second document was a copy of my 21 page affidavit about crimes, lies and abuses within organized scientology and by David Miscavige. The FBI accepted this as it showed them why Miscavige and those who do his bidding would not want me to speak.

I strongly encourage anyone else who has experienced such things from organized scientology to report it to their local FBI office. Perhaps other governmental bodies should also be concerned but I have started with the FBI. The truth is all that is needed, no embellishments. Organized scientology and David Miscavige are NOT above the law. If they harass you and/or appear to break the law, then I highly recommend that those who know of it report it.

This is especially relevant as the FBI files such reports as mine and looks for similar ones that might come up around the country. If others who experience this would also file their reports then the FBI might just have enough information to deal with what IMHO are crimes, even violations of national security, perpetuated by organized scientology.

What I do not understand is why organized scientology or individual scientologists never get convicted for stalking. From what I understand, anti-stalking laws are pretty strong in the US. Maybe its hard to prove or something. SME, you were definitely being stalked there. A stalking charge can be brought up to local law enforcement, and a restraining order can be issued.
Anyone who feels unsafe (which is everyone at risk of fair gaming) should be able to gain legal protection from scientology stalkers, IMO.

Maybe some people familiar with this subject could help clear this up.

This sounds great. A complaint filed reporting actions like these meant to intimidate, and filed by someone like you with knowledge of so much shady/illegal activity by the cult. These tactics might have worked before the computer age when one person attacked would feel (and be) isolated, but now when something like this happens it can be reported to a huge number of interested people...The cult running operations by Ron's outdated methods is like the Mafia sticking with Al Capone's business plan on how to sell illegal beer.

Most significant is that the "leafleteer" somehow managed to
elude security and gain entry to the secure area.
One way to do that, of course, would be to buy a ticket
on a flight leaving from the area. Or, perhaps it was
someone booked on a flight who was approached by a
sciop and offered money to go up and hand him the pamphlet.
Easy 50 bucks maybe?

Too bad Brennan didn't have a digital camera handy and
snap a few pictures of the mysterious huckster.

Larry,

Good job - but if I were in that position I would have reported the person to Homeland security - asking people to give things to persons boarding a lfight is a security no-no and a nightmare.

If it ever happens again you should immediately contact the feds - the results would be very interesting.

Thank goodness you filed a complaint. When I read your original post I was going to write "you should have stopped him, or take this to the police now" -- something like that.

That's a serious, serious thing that first off they they did this as intimidation and wanted you to feel scared.

But where it gets even worse was they were able to get your flight info, and get someone TO THE GATE to get to you. Not only is that stalking, but it's also SERIOUS breach of airport security. Tomorrow is the anniversary of another breach of airport security, and I'm sure the BRB FBI and Homeland Security aren't going to be happy that people with extreme religious beliefs just got in to an airport.

Scientology needs to be stopped.

Its obvious that they do it with scn employees somewhere in the mix.

I had experience of OSA calling me (when they thought I was still "in") to get information about people from the banks computers where I worked. I just told them I couldn't find anything. Saying no would just lead to problems.

AS,

You are correct, but give how long ago it was (10+ years) and that I don't even recall the name of the person. So probably not this instance.

I was wrong not reporting it at the time. If only I was a little more "out"" by then...But, if they had asked me that even six months before, I probably would have done it for them, and been proud of it.

All this anon activity is slowly bringing them out of the wood work. For example the LAPD linked with scientologists.

I can see why Germany has laws against scientologists in the government and some other jobs. Sounds like the right idea.

I would class any active scientologist with access to sensitive data in the high risk category. If someone from OSA puts the hard word on ie Do it for Ron, Save the planet, etc etc they will do it. Anyone who has been in must know this.

Almost forgot, years before that I got my passport done in a couple or hours by a scientologist girl on the inside. I was legit and it didn't seem like a problem at the time.

But the possibilities are endless and frightening.

The below update was just made on enturbulation.org. It applies here too:

UPDATE – September 11, 2008:

First of all I appreciate the words, suggestions and info from the people posting on this thread.

I want to give an update now.

I also made a complaint to the TSA who have noted it and who advised me to also get in touch with the Continental Airline security in Newark about this. (I flew on Continental Airlines when the incident occurred).

I have now spoken with senior people in Continental Airlines at both their corporate offices in Texas as well as in Newark, NJ.

Continental security in Newark now has my statement on this matter, a copy of my letter to the FBI and a copy of the two page “freedom” flyer handed to me by the scientology agent at that airport.

I had mentioned to the security agent in Newark that I understood that organized scientology may have travel agents who illegally get them confidential passenger information like mine. He told me that they could not do this. Only Continental agents themselves should really have had access to that information.

I pointed out that if this were the case it would seem to point to a serious breach of security involving organized scientology and Continental agents themselves. He agreed that it appeared that way. He told me that they were taking this very seriously and would be working with their local FBI on this as well.

I mention the above so that those concerned who have had similar things done to them by organized scientology can see the importance of reporting it to 1) the FBI; 2) TSA and 3) airline security. And I hope others will now do this so that it can in fact be addressed and those who may be violating our laws in an effort to harass others can be found and punished.

So the world is out. If organized scientology had the ability to wise up they would STFU with their lies and GTFO of the harassment of others business as it is just not going to be tolerated anymore. IMHO they are being watched by 20,000 sets of eyes now and should BACK OFF!

I think they are too stupid to do so and so I hope others will also report such matters and this can be dealt with properly.

If in any way this comes to my being asked to press criminal charges against them, I AM pressing charges. I was sick of seeing Miscavige and those he controlled trying to get false charges pushed on innocent people to hurt those who opposed him as far back as 1981. I am even sicker seeing him get false charges pressed on decent, innocent people now. For great justice this must end now.

No further updates will be given here as it is now a matter of investigation into possible criminal actions.

One of the, many reasons, this is so great is that more and more people - FBI, TSA and Continental Airlines are being informed of scientology's fair game tactics and being innoculated against the cult.

Great job, Larry.
