WHAT THOSE WHO PERSONALLY KNEW DAVID MISCAVIGE SAY
Vicki Aznerarn, former president of RTC
14. Contrary to the claims in his February 4, 1994, declaration Miscavige has struck staff members when they do things he dislikes.
In 1981, I witnessed him hitting John Axel, a Sea Org member in the mouth in 1982. Miscavige had two other tall male staff members to back him up when he hit John Axel. This despite the fact that John Axel is a fairly small and very mild-mannered individual. Miscavige also does such things as set up photos of staff members who have fallen into disregard and use them as targets for pistol shooting.
I witnessed him doing this with the Golden Era Musicians, of which Fernando Gamboa was one of his targets.
170. My office was right across the hall so I heard everything that went on. For the next three and a half hours Miscavige screamed profanities and wild, paranoid accusations at Jim, demanding to know who had sent him to destroy Scientology, was he working for the IRS, was he working for the FBI, what other enemy agents were working with him inside Scientology, etc., etc., ad nausea. I heard Jim repeatedly deny the accusations, and Miscavige's response was to scream at him even more.
David Mayo (former right-hand man of L. Ron Hubbard)
14. On August 29, 1982, David Miscavige, and others, acting on the orders of L. Ron Hubbard, kidnapped me and subsequently kept me captive and physically and mentally abused me for six months. During this period, David Miscavige, an officer and director of RTC, told me in the presence of Vicki Aznaran, President of RTC, Mark Yaeger, Commanding Officer, CMO INT of CSI that if I ever escaped, he would personally see to it that the resources of the Church of Scientology would destroy my character and reputation internationally.
Andre Tabayoyon (worked at Gold Base)
Mark Fisher, who was severely beaten by Miscavige, repeatedly told Miscavige and others that he did not want to be at the Hemet base. As Miscavige and others beat Mark in my presence, Mark kept saying that his attackers could beat him all they wanted but he still wanted to leave. Finally, Miscavige expressed his contempt and disgust at Mark and left the guard house where Mark was being held.
In the security check Dave made sure he told me about the trips to the casinoes, the heavy drinking and the women he and Pat had enjoyed together. Dave freely confessed his sins and Pat Broeker"s sins as well. He said if he was going to go down, he was going to make sure Pat Broeker went down as well. He was very critical of Pat, saying he had a long history of alcohol abuse and recklessly spending LRH's money. Of course, the person who received the report of Dave"s sec check was Pat Broeker. So it didn"t surprise me a bit when Dave and Pat suddenly became best buddies again. I seriously doubt that anything but reports full of glowing praise for Dave ever went to LRH. In retrospect I realize both Pat Broeker and David Miscavige had an interest in keeping the status quo with LRH, since both of them had dreams of one day being the new dictator of Scientology once the current Ding Dong king was dead.
Despite Miscavige's protests, he runs all of Scientology, regardless of corporate lines. In Scientology, there is only Scientology. Corporate lines are set up as ways to deflect the courts, the IRS and the authorities. When it comes to everyday work, Miscavige is appraised of every part of Scientology, from the church to the secular. He also issues orders to all sectors and approves all major transactions. His role is as the head of Scientology is well known within Scientology. It is only when it comes to matters such as this suit that he and his lieutenants must suddenly conjure up the corporate lines and claim ignorance.
The other move was to step up the flow of money dramatically. Among Larson's duties were levying fines on wealthy auditing subjects, whose intimate auditing sessions had been transcribed in writing, and forcibly dunning mission holders (franchisees) for millions of additional dollars for Hubbard agents. "In 1983," says Larson, "I manipulated a half-million-dollar inheritance out of Bob B... He was naive as hell. D.M. (David Miscavige) called me up in the middle of the night [about Bob B...] He wanted the money.
MISCAVIGE QUOTES
A woman is safer in a park at midnight than on a psychiatrist's couch,"
booms Miscavige, backed by savage graphics of psychiatrists - or "psychs"
as he calls them - being machine-gunned out of existence.

In total this [IRS] report was several thousand pages long. During the course
of this investigation, the IRS had amassed 125,000 pages of documents on myself.
To put that in perspective, no one in the history of the United States of America
has a bigger government dossier - not even Martin Luther King Jr. I won't deny
I've led an interesting life. But, nor that exciting. The IRS alleged that we
had committed a huge crime and needed to be put in jail for 21 years. And what
was that crime? Asking to be recognized as a religion and bona-fide Church by
the IRS! That's right. They wanted to put us in jail just because we wanted
them to treat us like every other religion....
Off we proceeded to 1111 Constitution Avenue - which if you didn't know is the
address of the national headquarters of the IRS. We presented ourselves to security
at the front door, signed the visitors log and informed them we were there to
see Fred. They asked - Fred who? We answered, Fred Goldberg of course, the Commissioner
of the IRS. "Is he expecting you"" they asked. "No",
was our response. "but if you phone him on the intercom and tell him we
are from the Church of Scientology, I am sure he'd love to see us." Have
you ever wondered whether we were really impinging, when we have spoken of the
IRS at previous events? Well - if so - shame on you. We did meet with the commissioner,
and, as the saying goes - the rest is history.

Wait a second, I'd like to note for the record that Mr. Ward here, said he
was doing TR 1.1. And I would just like that noted here. That is probably not
understandable to someone who is not a Scientologist, but it is definitely an
attempt to demean the religion[sic] of Scientology and I'd like that noted for
the record. This TR 1.1 refers to a writing by Graham Berry, where he states
that he will start up a 1.1 Club, including, qualifications for this for non
homosexuals, is that there will be a public buggering of the leaders of Scientology.
Buggering of course I think you know that it refers to sodomy and that is I
understand what the 1.1 Club is. I think that's what Mr. Ward was stating that
in reference to.
[From the deposition of David Miscavige by Keith Henson and Grady Ward, May
21, 1997 at Palm Springs, California. Case No. CV-96-20207 Northern District
of California U.S.C.A. (9th) Docket No. C 98-16994]
Objective One - place Scientology at the absolute forefront of Society. Objective
Two - eliminate psychiatry in all its forms.
We don't care what the current think is regarding what's wrong with the planet.
Government won't handle it. Politics won't handle it. Legislation won't handle
it.
All that's going to handle it is what we, of the IAS, have set down in stone.
Let's get rid of psychiatry, and let's bring Scientology to every man, woman
and child on this planet.
