COMMITTEE OF EVIDENCE
The following Interested Parties are called before an immediate
Committee of evidence:
Jay Hurwitz
This is an ecclesiastical proceeding to decide the fate of their
ordinations.
Evidence has now been gathered through intensive investigation showing
that these Interested Parties have been acting in cohorts with outside
influences in an effort to manipulate Church resources, lines and
terminals to forward their own vested interests.
Characterized by voiced disaffection and criticism of Church direction
and ecclesiastical seniors and senior bodies, these Interested Parties
have been found to be those taking the very management actions of
which they complain.
False accusations alluding management actions were vicious and unfair
were traced back discovering substantial evidence that these
Interested Parties were themselves instigating and promoting the said
undesirable management directives reportedly creating upset in various
Church echelons.
Simply stated, those who were complaining were the very people making
calculated management level decisions and actions designed to usurp
the authority of well meaning Church Officials and-denigrate their
true intentions to promulgate the Church of Scientology's religious
tenets, increase Church membership and expand the Church's influence
into Society.
These individuals met with little final success in their efforts to
create a false atmosphere of malcontent, unrest, and schisms amongst
Church echelons. However, a great deal of executive effort has been
required to correctly locate the sources of these purposefully created
conflicts.
These Interested Parties, while acting as staff and Church
representatives, have - by evidence collected - engaged in plans which
would enable them to establish factions of Church activities under
their own misguided direction.
Finding evidence that in many cases these efforts have been pursued to
reap personal profit, illegal benefits, or ungranted authority from
which self motivated endeavors could be pursued, this ecclesiastical
committee is formed together to make recommendations as to Official
Church justice actions warranted.
The committee is alerted to the fact that although their proceedings
are directed towards the eccleciastical ramifications of each
Interested Party's actions, the crimes committed may very well enter
into secular concerns. The nature of the transgressions, once the
severity of the individual actions have been determined by the
Committee, may fall under the catagory of Industrial Espionage and
Sabotage, Conversion, Breach of Fiduciary Duty, Grand Larceny,
Intentional Interference with Contractual Relationships, or other
civil or criminal Charges. Therefore, the committee is urged to keep
very accurate and complete documentation and factual evidence of all
procedures and findings.
It is noted that at least several of the Interested Parties were
holding senior corporate positions granted them by Mother Church
trustees or appropiate Church Official. The Committee may find, in the
course of their proceedings, evidence to substantiate serious Board
member or Officer neglect of duties and such must be documented.
Breaches of staff covenants must also be arbitrated as well as any
refusals to uphold the Creed and Tenets of the Church in their staff
dealings and activities.
The Committee must also gather data on the participation of Church
members or ex-members in connection with any crimes or high crimes
found to be committed against the better interest of the Church or its
members and make recommendations as to prudent judicial handling of
same.
Suppressive Acts against the Church are defined as acts or ommissions
undertaken, to knowingly suppress, reduce or impede Scientology or
Scientologists.
The Committee members are therefore urged to not underestimate the
severity of any Interested Party's acts committed as Suppressive Acts,
by policy, are clearly those covert or overt acts knowingly calculated
to reduce or destroy the influence or activities of Scientology or
prevent case gain or continued Scientology success and activity on the
part of a Scientologist. As persons or groups that would do such a
thing acts out of self interest only to the detriment of all others,
they cannot be granted the rights and beingness ordinarily accorded to
rational beings. (See HCO PL 23 Dec 65R SUPPRESSIVE ACTS SUPPRESSION
