Jenna speaks out about Scientology's recent extortion attempt on them:
"Hi Guys, Please repost this everywhere you can. This is why I am doing what
I am doing.
So where do I begin.... I did an interview this week with ABC nightline.
They of course had to call the Church for comment which they did.
Last night at 11pm while we were in bed we got a call from Dallas's father.
He said he was 20 minutes away from our house and he was driving down from a
meeting he had today and in the car with him were 2 Sea Org members from OSA
Int and they were coming to talk to us at our house.
He said that they had come to talk to him but he insisted that we should be
there and that they wanted to talk to us. So they just decided it was okay
to drop in on us in the middle of the night in true Sea Org style.
I told him that they could absolutely not come to my house and that they
need to call me and tell me that they apologize and want to sort this out
before I even consider meeting with them. A couple of minutes later I got a
call from Angie Blankenship (she was the CO CMO CW while I was in CMO CW for
many years and we last I heard she was COB's Programs Operator. She said she
was with Jenny Devocht/Linson who was the CO CMO CW, WDC FLB and CO CMO Int.
For those of you who this is all gibberish to, they are both VERY high
Church Executives. She said she was here to sort things out. So reluctantly
I agreed to meet with them. Mostly for the purpose of demonstrating the
truth of what goes on to Dallas's parents.
We met at Denny's because it was the only place open. We sat down at a
table. Both of these women looked like they hadn't slept in years!
We were there until 4 o'clock in the morning....
Within seconds of sitting down they proceeded to accuse me of "attacking my
auditor", "using my uncle's name for my 15 minutes of fame because otherwise
nobody would care about what I have to say", "lying about my upbringing",
and telling me my mom was a horrible dishonest woman without the slightest
thought of sensitivity. They said I had denounced Scientology and that was a
Suppressive Act.
Just their usual antics. They asked us what our beef was. We told them about
sleep deprivation, being held against my will, being separated from my
parents, our friends being separated from their families. Everything we
brought up, they laughed aloud and acted as if these things were
preposterous and was saying how my education was so much better than what I
would have gotten in the "wog world". We told them that they were denying
everything we said to which they responded, "That's not true!", "Absolutely
Not!" - they couldn't even see this and immediately denied that!
After down and dirty inavoidable questions they admitted that we did heavy
labor for hours on a daily basis at the Ranch. They even pulled out a photo
album and showed Dallas and his parents photos of us rock-hauling and mixing
cement and building rock walls and other manual labor! They said that the
fact that we didn't see our parents except for once a week was the same as
any boarding school. They said that fact that I didn't see my mom but once
from the age of 12-16 and by dad but 3 times and all for less than 30
minutes, they said that this was totally normal and like any other boarding
school. Angie admitted to not letting me talk to my friends because they
were in a lower level organization. Angie and Jenny both admitted to
refusung to allow me to call my parents when I was 14 years old. They
admitted to the fact that I was being held against my will in an auditing
room, but said that after taking a walk and 4 hours that I later went back
into the room and this was not against my will so this voided the previous 3
hours of kicking and screaming to try and get out of a 5x5 auditing room.
They admitted that both of the areas where Dallas and I worked were deprived
of sleep for days. They admitted that it was absolute bogus that my Aunt
Sarah was declared a suppressive person and went on to blame it on Mark
Ingber who is long gone.
In fact they blamed 99% of these things on Marty Rathbun (may he R.I.P),
Mike Rinder, Tom Devocht and Dan Koon (of all people!). This is despite the
fact that Jenny single handedly physically did not allow me to get on the
plane to be with my parents when I was 12 years old after reading me a long
excerpt of KSW. That Angie was witness every week, if not responsible for
the fact that all of the minors at CW who were only schooled once a week.
They pleaded with me to pull the ABC Nightline deal. They said if I did,
they would go through and cancel all of the B.S. allegations about me, that
they would see about lifting the declare on several of my friends and would
get all the data out on the table.
After Dallas's parents pleaded with us to try and cooperate so that they
wouldn't have to decide between us and Scientology, we told them we would
think about it and would call them the next morning. They tried to pressure
us into making a descision then and there and we told them that it wasn't
gonna happen. They told us not to talk to anybody about this meeting and to
please not post about it on the internet.
The moment we left we decided that there was no way we would pull the
Nightline deal. We never said anything but the truth. We decided that we
would tell them this and that we would be willing to hold off on future
interviews if they came through with their promise because we definitly
cannot trust them and they needed to prove that they were really taking
responsibility first.
The next morning we woke up and left our house and went out to breakfast for
an hour. From there we took a round-about way to stop by my office in
downtown because I had ordered some roses which came in. As we get onto the
freeway Dallas noticed a white Ford sedan far behind on the on ramp. Trying
not to be paranoid he thought nothing of it. As we switched freeways and
went another ten miles he noticed the same car still following us.After
arriving downtown on all the oneway streets he started noticing the car
would never pull up directly behind him and kept swerving lanes.
We went in a circle because of oneway streets in downtown and Dallas was
taking his time not coming in right away and I didn't know why. We were
inside for 15 minutes getting my roses and Dallas now sees the same car down
the street on the side of the road. He takes off pretty abrubtly into
traffic and I think he is a crazy driver already. A block later Dallas says
to me, "Jenna I think we are being followed. See that white car 3 lanes
right of us, I am going to make the next left and he will swerve across and
follow us." He did just that!
Dallas kept going in circles trying to see how many shifts this guy was
going to make. At one point he pulled up in front of us and we got his
license plate here:

Then we took off again and he came behind us and so I had to get out of my
seat turn around and get a shot here:

He could see we spotted him and knew we were taking pics so he pulled over
and then he was gone.
OSA or RTC or whoever it is, you have officially lost all opportunity of us
trying to work it out internally.
That was your last chance and you BLEW IT!
Not only have you upset me, but you have upset my parents.
I guess I wont be holding back on that CNN interview after all.
