Ryan Hamilton has now filed his 25th lawsuit against the Church of Scientology's drug rehab network, Narconon, and this time he's opened up a new front - in the state of Florida.

Hamilton began filing his lawsuits in February, and limited them to cases in California, Nevada, and Colorado. They follow a pattern which grew more robust over the year - they accuse Narconon of running a deceptive scam that advertises drug counseling and instead delivers Scientology training.

Hamilton this week filed a federal fraud lawsuit against Narconon Gulf Coast in the Florida panhandle town of Destin. The facility recently changed its name to "Blu by the Sea," one of numerous name changes by Scientology rehab centers as they try to get away from the embattled name "Narconon."
