Scientology’s Lying Response to Masterson Conviction

June 2, 2023 By Mike Rinder 4 Comments

Of course, following the Masterson conviction, scientology put out a statement about how they have been subjected to "prejudice" and "bigotry." Here it is, in all it's holier-than-thou sliminess, and their usual outright lies. The prosecution's introduction of religion into this trial was an unprecedented violation of the First Amendment and affects the due process rights of every American.
