- In anticipation of her biggest day in court yet, Laura DeCrescenzo and her attorneys hit the Church of Scientology with 928 pages of new filings - Details from 18,000 pages of evidence show how Scientology manipulated a child to keep her working under slave-like conditions - A key document describing DeCrescenzo s unwillingness to have her coerced abortion is missing from the evidence Scientology was ordered to produce By Tony Ortega Wednesday afternoon, Laura DeCrescenzo filed explosive new information in her four-year list of lodging in branson mo legal odyssey list of lodging in branson mo against the Church of Scientology, submitting 928 pages of new declarations and exhibits in anticipation of a crucial list of lodging in branson mo October 23 hearing in her lawsuit against the church which alleges abuse, including allegations that she was forced to have an abortion at only 17 years of age. Key to the new filings is information gleaned from thousands of pages of previously list of lodging in branson mo secret files that the church fought mightily to keep under wraps. But on Monday, the U.
He was seeking $50 million in damages because the magazines had claimed that Cruise had abandoned his daughter Suri after his 2012 divorce to Katie Holmes. But then, after a tough year of discovery, it turned out that the magazines had done their homework, and the facts showed that Cruise had only seen his daughter a handful of times over a 110-day period.
After that, any chance of convincing a jury that the magazines had lied about Cruise with malice were pretty list of lodging in branson mo much nil. So, no big surprise that he gave up the suit. It only brought list of lodging in branson mo him waves of additional media laughter based on some of the things he d said in a deposition that was put into the court file.
Censorship through punishment is a major point of agreement between Cruise and L. Ron Hubbard and the Church of Scientology, Rathbun told us by phone today. I think he was litigious before he got into Scientology, and I think it s one of the points of agreement that attracted him to the cult. I think you d agree that s a central tenet of Scientology, to censor through punishment. And I m not just talking about their legal strategies but also their ethics policies. And I think that lawsuit demonstrates that.
Cruise s attorney, Bert Fields, tries to give the impression that Cruise is making the decisions in these matters, but we asked Rathbun how likely it was that Scientology leader David Miscavige would have been counseling the actor.
list of lodging in branson mo Rathbun says Cruise s aggressive strategy reminded him of Scientology s tactics in the past. It s like the whole TIME magazine thing, he says, referring to Scientology s $416 million lawsuit over a 1991 article that called Scientology The Thriving Cult of Greed and Power, which was eventually dismissed.
Even though we spent $10 million over six years, we considered it a great victory list of lodging in branson mo because we heard they d spent $6 million and had been dropped list of lodging in branson mo by their insurance carrier. Miscavige list of lodging in branson mo would brag, They ve treated us with kid gloves ever since then. And he was right.
Tom Cruise is following the David Miscavige strategy of legal handlings, list of lodging in branson mo which is, if I say or think something, it makes it true. Therefore I m going to barge ahead in court on the basis that whatever I m saying is right. Eventually, reality sinks in and proves that what he thought in his head really wasn t right after all, Rinder told us.
It s the way Miscavive has conducted litigation, that he s got enough money to keep hiring lawyers and litigating, and if he does that, he thinks eventually list of lodging in branson mo he ll win. But it just doesn t work that way.
UPDATE: TMZ is reporting that the two sides worked out the following language to end the suit Bauer Publishing, In Touch and Life and Style never intended list of lodging in branson mo to communicate that Tom Cruise had cut off all ties and abandoned his daughter Suri and regret if anyone drew that inference from anything they published.
If Bauer also paid Cruise anything, the amount is in a sealed settlement which may never become public. list of lodging in branson mo We d be surprised if they paid him anything, however, after the facts that came out in discovery. He s fortunate that he at least got this tepid apology out of Bauer.

Remember who we re talking list of lodging in branson mo about here. Scientology isn t the only topic most media fail to cover accurately and completely. Catch as catch can. And hope that they err on the side of making it sound even worse than reality. No that s impossible.
Yep. It looks more top down recently.The New Yorker, Atlantic, VF trickle list of lodging in branson mo to gossip mags and tabloids. For an educated person (Yes, I sound snobby), The New Yorker is mainstream. But Joe Budweiser (further evidence of snobbery. Sorry.), those magazines at the check-out are a news source.
The Daily Mail. I ve wasted time writing two letters to the editor over Jan Mohr. One after an op ed Stephen list of lodging in branson mo Fry copied to his blog that was a misinformed piece on homosexuality. I try to avoid links to that paper.
list of lodging in branson mo I agree that Miscavige was behind it, and it has his classic footprint: sue despite the advice of lawyers list of lodging in branson mo about how you can be deposed, have some bad pre-trail testimony, wait for a ton of bad publicity, have them ask to depose Katie (in this case) or Davey himself (in Debbie Cook s case), wait for even more bad publicity then drop it without getting anything.
It s almost as if David Miscavige is unaware that he and his fellow dingbats can also be deposed and have their lunatic and criminal actions splashed once again in public for all to see, almost as if David did not learn anything list of lodging in branson mo from his Public Buggering outbreak.
For the record: Debbie Cook asked to depose Davey: case settled. list of lodging in branson mo Dandar does the same: no word about that secret court hearing 13 months ago. 2 Texas PIs depose him settles. Montalvo settles. Bauer wants to depose Katie case settles. Mosey is now going after him if she really refuses to settle, it will be hysterical.
David dropped out of high School so he s not the sharpest tool in the shed. I also seriously doubt that he has even started the GAT II Student Hat as he wrote it but it s for other people to do. So you have as David stated before The blind leading the blind . How prophetic.
Don t feel bad. I imagine many people feel that way, as long as he s still owned by the cult. It would be wonderful if he chose his child over the cult. That would be the best outcome, for Suri to have a sane and healthy father list of lodging in branson mo in her life, but it doesn t seem likely.
I honestly worry over how ANY child in her position could have a sane and healthy upbringing. Every time I see shots of her surrounded by paparazzi, list of lodging in branson mo my heart drops. Poor baby girl. What a world to be born in to.
Overall I think that a daughter needs a daddy to be there for her, even when daddy is a spittle-spewing frothing loon like Cruise is. Cruise s lunacy was a fairly significant threat to Suri s sanity, but then considering the broad spectrum of lunacy that parents subject their kids to, Suri could do far worse than having Cruise list of lodging in branson mo as a father.
Having had crappy/abusive parents it s a tough call. I think she d be best off with a sane person who genuinely cares about her in that role. Failing that, IDK that Tom is going to be particularly beneficial.
I imagine list of lodging in branson mo Tom the Big Being takes solace in the notion that when the mothership arrives to take him and COB to Target list of lodging in branson mo 2 to join Hubbard we (the evil joking and degrading beings that poked fun at him) will be left to fry on a dying planet that Scientology failed to save.
Anyone else hoping for news from Texas? Well, at least this particular celebutard story had Scientology at the core. Since this is the case, if Lush wants to post queefs from Fudgie the Whale which are undoubtedly to come, he may do so without fear of imprecation from me.
There probably won t be any news from Texas. Judge Waldrip list of lodging in branson mo just asked Monique s side not to do anything about scheduling list of lodging in branson mo discovery for a week. After today, they can begin pushing to schedule Miscavige s deposition. As for Scientology looking for a stay in appeals court, no news on that, but they aren t limited only to this week on that.
Latin we command , a writ from an appeals court dictating some particular action. Usually the trial court is allowed to do its thing without interruption and you only go to the appeals court after final judgment. Under limited circumstances (the limits vary from state to state), an interlocutory appeal is allowed from some intermediate ruling, but courts hate that. In Texas, Waldrip s order that Miscavige be deposed could only go up on interlocutory appeal if Waldrip agreed, and he wouldn t. So they are going to petition for the special writ, and Waldrip did give a seven-day stay during which the Miscavige list of lodging in branson mo deposition wouldn t happen (that is what expired Friday at close of business, 5PM Texas time). He would not give them an open-ended stay until the appeals court decides about their petition for mandamus. The appeals court is not obligated even to hear arguments about a petition (as opposed to an appeal by right) if they don t feel like it. They are likely to shove it into a pile that they will look at when they have time, and to answer it with a one-word DENIED and no reasoning.
I knew that the meeting took place, I was not sure that the deposition did. David M. has the option of utilizing Tommy to present an appeal list of lodging in branson mo to Monique to pretty much surrender, and I thought that the scheduled deposition would be an excellent list of lodging in branson mo opportunity for Tommy to avoid having to answer questions and for David to present a white flag of surrender.
Beyond the fact that the deposition did actually occur already (as pointed out above), list of lodging in branson mo an independent, subpoenaed fact witness has NO PROPER LEGAL AUTHORITY to enter into settlement negotiation
