Q&A with Mike Rinder: Understanding the sudden changes at Scientology's LA complex - 2014-10-02
ALSO, SEE BELOW: Jonny Jacobsen gives us a full report on the European Court of Human Rights decision regarding Scientology in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Mike Rinder was once Scientology's top spokesman and oversaw the organization's legal affairs. He left Scientology in 2007 after being held for about a year in its notorious internal prison for executives, "The Hole." Now he writes about Scientology at his own website, and his long involvement in the organization ensures him a steady stream of insider accounts of what's happening in the church.
And none seemed bigger than the reports he's been getting over the last few days regarding some sudden changes in LA. We've also been receiving reports, and we thought it would be a good idea to talk with Rinder and try to break down what's happened in a way that is not only comprehensible to longtime Scientologists.
