My memory fails me there, but it would be sweet if Ron the Senior got to see that particular incident play out.

Ammo, thanks for that story.
Wasn’t the incident of the firings prior to Ron’s death by a few years?

I, too, PickAnotherID, have wondered just when will the IRS will wise-up about Scientology.

I wonder, also, just how many scientologists work for the IRS. And the FBI. And the Department of Justice. This has been Hubbard’s game plan for quite a while now.

Prior to the untimely passing of the senior Ron Miscavige, son David could have simply called his Dad on the phone and asked him about his day:
“Today, Son, I’m going shopping for groceries, then I’ll be sitting down to record a YouTube video very critical of some aspects of Scientology. It’ll be a hectic day, what with trying to shake off those PIs dogging my every step. So now, tell me – what’s up with you, Son?”

p.s. To all the people who still donate to Scientology, to the IAS, to any and all faux projects within the cherch: this is where your money has been going. Powell and his partner were promised “lifetime income” so when Miscavige decided to fire them (but only because his father had passed away, and there was no need for two PIs to watch his grave) their paychecks stopped coming. Well, Powell and partner sued Scientology for breach of promise or something, and of course there was a settlement before the sordid facts (and Miscavige’s name) could be revealed in a tabloid-worthy trial. These near-criminal PIs (remember the stuff in the trunk of their rental car?) got their lifetime income, or a substantial equivalent, as best anyone can tell. Are they still working for Miscavige? Hmmmph! Who said they were ever working for him in the first place?
