Spain Acquits Scientologists of Conspiracy December 5, 2001,
A Spanish court has acquitted 15 members and employees of the Church of Scientology of charges of criminal conspiracy, closing a case dating back to 1984.
Prosecutors had brought additional charges, which included tax fraud and endangering public health, but after the trial began in February, the Madrid Provincial Court threw out all but the conspiracy charge.
On Monday, the court rejected that charge as well.
