I think my favorite part was Mike saying that DM was in hiding to avoid getting served – just like his mentor. Karma is a beautiful thing.

Skyler,
What Tommy Davis said to Leah very likely didn’t get him in any trouble at all.
What he said to The New Yorker about LRH was probably what did him in.
He was obviously nervous and misspoke but what he said actually had huge Scientological ramifications.
The general consensus of opinion is that this interaction with the staff of the New Yorker magazine about Lawrence Wright’s book got him removed as the “voice” of Scientology.
But he’s Ann Archer’s kid, and his father, Archer’s first husband, is very wealthy, and his then wife was Jessica Feshbach, herself from a very rich prominent Scientology family, so Tommy Davis got a soft landing out of the Sea Org.
In the cult, money isn’t everything; its the only thing.

No, that’s the weird thing. I wasn’t born after ’86. They flew the SO guy in from WDC, which I assume is the Org that is required to do the interview. I would rather not confide publicly, as Mike said it doesn’t matter (it’s just a distraction from the abuse narrative). Let’s just say it was an interesting interview, I am sure it was recorded by those microphones on the wall, and I can say that I talked about reading the book Lords of Finance about international bankers. Most of the questions were about historical things, time and place specific events. Also for some reason he tried to impress me saying how many times self-auditing was mentioned in some book (self auditing basics book?). There was also something very political that is also controversial and would be embarrassing to Scientology if mentioned which was odd to say to me (a PC), to say the least.
There also had to be two people in the room besides me, which I think comes from a policy requirement, and one person was from the local Org. I assume that’s for a witness.

Is that why he is gone? Do you think he was told, “You are really stupid for saying that. Do you have any idea how much harm you have caused us?”

Was the fact that his mother is a celeb altered the way he was treated? I’m just curious.

Dear all
Are FBI People being trained at Scientology?
Could this be a reason?

But it was worth it. It was really interesting and informative. I kept hoping that someone in that story would have assassinated DM. But then I realized that would have been impossible – because that never happened.

All kidding aside, it was really excellent and it can easily be watched at 1.5 speed. Watching it at 2.0 speed makes Mike sound like Daffy Duck and so I wouldn’t recommend that. But there is nothing wrong with watching it at 1.5 times.

One question though. In all seriousness, when Mike talked about how he is the number one threat to these creeps, I would have expected DM to have paid someone to have him assassinated. Why has he never done that? He is certainly a big enough of a sociopath to have done that.
