---

It was 1982 and Joe Reaiche — he pronounces it "reesh" — was in Florida working his way up Scientology's "Bridge to Total Freedom."

He was a Lebanese-Australian professional rugby player, convinced that Scientology had the answers to help him achieve even more. So he had traveled to the Flag Land Base in Clearwater, Florida, Scientology's "spiritual mecca," working hard to become the best Scientologist he could possibly be.

And while he was there doing services, he met a young family and quickly became close to them. Peter was an insurance agent. "Good guy, and a baseball player. It was an athletic family," Joe remembers. Peter's wife Carol was ambitious and good looking. And they had two sons, Daniel, who was 6, and Christopher just 2.
