Leader of Church of Scientology, David Miscavige, Physically Abused Staff For Years
Glosslip’s interview with ex-Scientologist Marc Headley in many ways was more of a blow to the Church of Scientology, than ABC’s light coverage of CoS victims Jenna Miscavige (niece of Scientology leader David Miscavige) and actor Jason Beghe’s powerful Scientology video with Mark Bunker of Xenutv.com.
Thanks to the exceedingly gracious efforts of Anonymous, we are able to bring you transcribed information from that interview, so that our hearing impaired, or dial-up users can be privy to this illuminating, yet disturbing details about the Church of Scientology’s inner workings. Marc Headley is not only an amazingly articulate person, he’s also very brave for stepping forward to share this information from deep inside the Church. As Executive Producer at Golden Era Production, the production company owned by Scientology, Headley worked closely with RTC President and CoS figurehead, David Miscavige.
When you read this transcribed interview I ask that you bear in mind, this man, David Miscavige, is a role model to Scientologists around the globe, he is the head of an organization which deems itself as the spiritual salvation for mankind. Please try to imagine any other spiritual leader in this role, and truthfully ask yourself if this conduct is befitting of such an honor:
DO: Good afternoon Glosslip radio listeners, I am Dawn Olsen of glosslip.com, and I am very excited to have a very special guest with me today. It’s Marc Headley, an ex-Scientologist who was with the Church of Scientology for 15 years. He’s got some really very interesting, exciting and sad stories to share with us about his experiences within the Org. He and I talked a few times before while we were setting up the interview, and certainly I’m well aware of the stories he has to tell, so I’m just going to give you a little background here from his bio.
Marc worked at the Scientology international management headquarters in Gilman Hot Springs
from 1990-2005, and he worked for the media production company owned by the Church of
Scientology, Golden Era productions. They’re the ones that put out all those Scientology
commercials and propaganda videos we’ve seen and mocked on the web over the last few months.Having worked there for quite some time, he ended up becoming the Executive Producer at
Golden Era Productions. He left in 2005 and now lives in California with his family. We’re going to
leave it at that because why he left is very pertinent to this story. First we’re going to begin with
introducing Marc. Hello Marc, thanks for joining us, I’m really excited to have you.MH: Hi Dawn, great to be here.
DO: And you’re recovering from a cold, so everybody…
MH: Just a little bit hoarse.
DO: Just a little bit hoarse. We’ll try and not make you talk too much. I’m just curious, can you tell us how you became involved in Scientology? I know you still have family members who are in, so let’s go with your background first.
MH: What actually happened was my mother, probably in the very early 80’s, got involved in Scientology through a friend.
More and more, she became involved in doing courses and getting auditing. I grew up living
across the street from the Celebrity Center in Los Angeles. So I grew up around Scientologists,
then my mom became a Scientologist and I went to a Scientology school. So from about the age of
six or seven I was indoctrinated into the lingo and the procedures, and all the different things that
Scientologists do. In 1989, I left school, the Scientology school that I was attending, to join the Sea
Organization.Very shortly from when I joined the Sea Org, I was transferred from Los Angeles to the
Golden Era productions facility, so that’s how I got in. When you grow up in Scientology, the Sea
Org is made out to be the elite of all Scientology so if you can actually go into the Sea Org, it’s
considered a privilege. They have a slogan: “Many are called, few are chosen.” And that’s how they
recruit people.DO: So, they make it sound like a very elite society, and not everyone, you may be interested but not everyone gets to join, therefore increasing the image of the Sea Org?
MH: That’s exactly correct. You don’t really see when you’re Scientology public, if you’re a parishioner, behind the scenes into the Sea Org. You only see the staff that work at the different churches. A parishioner might never go into a management facility or a confidential location such as Golden Era Productions. They’re not really privy to the goings on there, its very mysterious.
Even when I joined the Sea Org in 1989, I was not aware that there was a facility, even a secret
facility that was up in Hemet. I had no idea, even after I was in the Sea Org for many months. I had
never heard it until I was asked if I would like to go there. So I said “Sure, what it it?”, I didn’t even
know.I didn’t know who David Miscavige was, I didn’t know who any of the current leaders of
Scientology were, nothing. I had no knowledge of them whatsoever, that’s the view of a kid
growing up in it. So that’s how I ended up at Golden Era Productions.DO: Now, when you and I talked, I shared with you some experiences that Jeff Hawkins and I talked about. Do you know Jeff?
MH: Yeah, I know Jeff.
DO: I assumed you would have, but there’s a lot of people who’ve come and gone over the years so I shouldn’t assume that people know each other. But he worked with David Miscavige doing marketing, that type of stuff, I figured you could have run into each other. He told a very disturbing story about David actually abusing his staff members and specifically Jeff, he himself was abused.
And he saw a senior Org member get beaten, it was like an open-handed slap to the face
several times. That was David’s way of intimidating staff into doing what he wants and he’s a very
angry man. But you also have some more stories and I’d like you to share that with us, I think it’s
very important because we’re trying to build a picture about a man we don’t know that much about,
you have a lot of insight into that, why don’t you tell us what you know about David Miscavige.MH: Well, from the time I showed up at Golden Era Productions in 1990, I had been there maybe a few months when I saw David Miscavige physically beat somebody up. And that was in 1990. So it’s not like this just developed over the past five years, there’s a pattern going on.
All the way up until I left in 2005 I’d say that I saw David Miscavige physically strike somebody or slap as you say or punch in the face, I’d say I witnessed myself at least thirty different occasions, myself. And I heard from other people second hand many more instances that occurred. That was the turning point was for me. In late 2004 I was walking through the main factory facility with David Miscavige and I had made a smart-alec comment in response to one of his questions, apparently he’d not had a good day already and my comment was not well received and he proceeded to unload on me.
He punched me in the face at least ten times and my glasses fell off, I was thrown up against a
desk unit, a counter top, and that was the moment right then when I realized I could go no further
down than this, to be beaten by the leader of my so-called church. What else could I do that could
get me in a lower status than that? And I decided that I would strike back. As soon as he saw that in
my eyes, I was grabbed and escorted out of the building and made to take a walk for about an hour
or so. He sent several people off to console me, that he really shouldn’t have done that and he was
really sorry. While I was being escorted out of the room I heard him say to his staffers, “He was
going to hit me back”.And I thought to myself, “Do you know what? I really was, I really was going to hit you back”. At that point that I started figuring out what I was going to do because I wasn’t going to be staying there much longer. And in January 2005 I left. A lot of people, a lot of Scientologists think that Dave Miscavige is the savior of the church and all those things that he’s done have kept it alive, basically the reason they are still around. That might also be the reason why they’re not going to last, because of the crimes, the physical violence, the emotional and mental torture, that he puts people through, its mind-boggling.
A lot of people don’t believe, the stuff they read on the internet, that David Miscavige has done. When I got out of the Sea Org I couldn’t believe the amount of stuff that was on the internet that was absolutely, 100% accurate, of the going ons at the international headquarters or Int Base. So yeah, there’s a lot of stuff on the internet and it’s absolutely true, pretty much I’d say 99% of it is very accurate.
David, while not a “minister” at the Church, is certainly the person who sets policy, creates initiatives and leads his “parish.” By virtue of Miscavige’s role as head of a “religious organization” it is entirely appropriate to set standards of conduct upon him befitting of someone who leads such a wealthy organization. An organization mind you, which prides itself on ethical mores, spiritual guidance and has taken the charge of “obliterating psychiatry,” saving mankind, and ultimately “clearing the planet” of undesirable elements which keep us as a species from becoming enlightened.
Do you suppose Pope Benedict XVI punches, slaps and abuses his flock? Does the Dali Lama do this? What about high ranking Rabbis, Ministers, Reverends and spiritual leaders around the world? Today while sitting in my own house of worship, I tried imagining the leader of my faith doing this. It was laughable, inconceivable.
This man, who cradles babies with the love of a father to all, the person who smiles upon me and all those who stood with me as though the very light of divinity shone through me, and those in my fellowship. This person who asked kindly for my donations to continue their good works, but smiled just as benevolently upon me as they did upon those who couldn’t give. This person who feels their offering of salvation on behalf of their chosen faith, is predicated on the example they set, based on teachings which are thousands of years old. This person wouldn’t dare think it was appropriate to treat another member of their congregation or any other human the way David Miscavige has treated his dedicated Sea Org members as described above.
I wish this were the worst of it, but sadly, the sadism and cruelty is even worse than the abuse Marc discusses above. Regardless of your faith, or lack thereof, we are all expected to treat each other with respect. But this behavior, witnessed first hand, is unforgivable coming from a leader of a so-called “religion.”
Coming up next….how David Miscavige tortured his staff, had members thrown in filthy lakes, and mentally abused and ridiculed his own associates.

“Do you suppose Pope Benedict XVI punches, slaps and abuses his flock? Does the Dali Lama do this?”
Nope, but I’d imagine the Pope has one heck of a withering glare if he were feeling so inclined. And I’m sure the Dali Lama could drop some wisdom on somone to put them in check.
For some reason when I imagine DM getting violent, I can’t help but think of Rick Moranis, without glasses, trying to act tough.
But then there’s the whole psychological aspect of being treated in such a way by someone who you’ve been conditioned to admire. I’d hate to imagine even a harsh glare from someone I looked up to.

“Looks up to”? I’m sorry, I just can’t get over the logistics of that. I mean — he’s titchy, isn’t he?! I suppose if he makes people genuflect…
Which makes the physical abuse stories all the weirder, really. Does he have that tiny-man syndrome? And were the abused prevented from smacking him back because, quite frankly, a single well-placed blow would crumple him like the plastic mannequin he is?
He does have a fetching pair of cold, dead eyes, though.

Comment by wil thompson — April 28, 2008 @ 4:37 am
I think many people would have tried to hit him back but since DM surrounds himself with cult members the opportunity to strike back is small and those who try are probably RPFed or quickly dispatched to the nederlands. Marc Headley did sya he was going to hit him back but he was restained by others. Thst’s what gets me with all this. SO many people around Miscavige just sit there and let him abuse people without one comment or ttempt to stop him. This is a true sign of the power of this weetle man and how brainwashed people are.
Comment by Mitsu Too — April 28, 2008 @ 7:39 am
Tom Cruise doesn’t even “look up” to the evil elf… It is no wonder that this blemish on the face of humanity surrounds himself with people that he has deemed brain-washed enough to accept his authority. There is no statute of limitations on murder, and I bet his closet has plenty of skeletons. He must be held accountable for being the head of an abusive organization. You can’t run THAT tight of a ship, and not know more about the strange deaths going on his watch. He is the poster-imp for all the ills in society: High school drop out, ego-maniac, manipulative goblin, control-junkie, abusive bastid, and gun toting creep.
For a nice thought: wouldn’t it be cool if Cruise was trying to take over the creepy organization just so that he could end the tyrant’s rule?? If nothing else, he could use that as an excuse for looking like a Co$ tool for the last 20+ years. He could consider this the best PR move he ever made!! That would be if he “really, really, really, really” cared..

Real pretty day here, fog rolling down the river valley, hiding the farms. I’ve never met the man in person myself, but people say he pays close attention to you during conversation. There’s some disparity between what -common- people say about Mr. MisCavige and what apostates say. So where’s the reality, rumor mongers?
Comment by Terryeo — April 28, 2008 @ 10:03 am
Reality is outside the Church0f$cientology’s ability to observe it freely and objectively without a preconditioned bias, or screen it to decide what their practitioners can, and can’t know outside of Scientology.

oops looks like more than one person has seen David Miscavige physically assault others, so seems to me this isn’t just ‘Rumor,’ more like truth and reality.
Comment by Hi, I'm David's Evil Twin — April 28, 2008 @ 10:33 am
The reality is the people getting the shit kicked out of them. People still “in” don’t want to get the shit kicked out of them some more so they don’t say anything (like abused spouses). Those who are “out” don’t have to worry about getting the shit kicked out of them by a midget, so they speak out about it (like abused spouses).
Comment by David — April 28, 2008 @ 11:04 am
Bravo Terryeo, state two completely obvious opposing viewpoints and see what sticks. And who are these “common” people you speak of?
Of course Scientologists believe DM is the greatest thing since LRH. The fact that you like DM and think the man is a decent human being is your reality, and no matter what anyone says that will always be true for you.
I have to give credit to you Scientologists (and maybe you’re so indoctrinated you don’t realize you’re even doing it) but you guys are quite good at
misleading, misguiding and misdirection.
Fortunately, it doesn’t work like that out here in the real world.

I got out of Scientology in 1978 after having been part of the subject since 1959.
I never was part of the current leadership & what I have read about them makes me tend to intensely dislike them.
Scientology from a very long distance from where it was led appeared to me to have been the final solution for humankind.
I was proud to have been part of its functions such as the Sea Org not having really understood how it had become established.
Only recently have I been enlightened about the true nature of the late Ron Hubbard & the actual goings on within the so called religion that I had followed from a great distance to its chore.
I am very happy that I am out of the subject & no longer indoctrinated by its very many superstitions & science fantasies.
I am still though interested in knowing the real truth that can set the spirit free.

Pingback by GlossLip » More Details Of Sadism From Scientology Church Leader David Miscavige — April 28, 2008 @ 2:51 pm
Let’s be logical for just one second, shall we?
DM runs a secret underground base that is essentially like a miniature city unto itself. He has goons and thugs doing his bidding, which is why Marc says he didn’t hit him back.
I have two questions.
Number one, why didn’t Marc call the police and/or launch a civil suit for assault? I cannot conceive of letting someone punch me repeatedly without either getting a couple good punches of my own in before the bodyguards break it up, and/or calling the cops on him afterwards. If it came to a trial for criminal assault, DM would probably win, but it would sure harass the hell out of him - and that ain’t bad.
Number two, if DM is as evil as they say, I don’t understand why all these people lived to tell their stories. There’s nothing stopping DM from putting these people in irons in his secret S&M dungeon. (Some people even think Church President Heber Jentzch is being held against his will.) Honestly, I just don’t see DM letting this guy walk, knowing he has the power to potentially bring down the house of cards. Same goes for all the other people who tell horror stories.
It’s not that I disbelieve that DM is capable of the horrors, but for that very reason, I question why he didn’t just make these people disappear when he had every opportunity to do it.

Man-0-man….
Hmmmmm. I think it’s fair to say, once again, where are the feds? WHere is the state police? Why is this not assault? Why is this not an abusive and illegal labor practice? How man people does DM have to assault? How many people have to allege kidnapping and assault before anything is done?
Comment by AnonymousNow — April 28, 2008 @ 3:31 pm
@deeply-bopper.
“Honestly, I just don’t see DM letting this guy walk, knowing he has the power to potentially bring down the house of cards.”
Actually, there are so many stories of the same thing happening– DM assaulting people– that under your logic, DM would have to be a mass murder in order for you to believe that he “assaults” those people. That’s not great logic.
Rather, logic dictates that if DM did outright start killing people, rather than assaulting them, locking them away, driving them clinically insane via an “introspective rundown,” or driving them to commit suicide, as is his modus operandi, he would have been brought down a long time ago.
You entire post is silent to the COS “Fair Game” policy, and the policy of disconnection. Both of these are used to systematically silence opposition, to great effect. Thus, your failure to acknowledge them is curious, or in the least, uninformed.
Also, you seem to miss the part wherein the victim stated he was about to hit DM back, but was pulled away by his thugs. Your primary premise is that it is unbelievable that he did not strike DM back. Thus, your primary premise fails also.
Comment by AnonymousNow — April 28, 2008 @ 5:25 pm
To deely bopper. It is always hard for those of us not subjected to such abuses to wonder why people don’t come forward and why people don’t report these crimes, etc. From what I have read and heard I would like to offer some observations. One if you read anything about cults in general, let alone the CoS, there seems to develop amongst the followers a sense of “closed society” where you slowly and gradually become cut off from the normal world. Your friends, family and acquaintances are all cult members. You are made to feel only the cult has the answers and the “outside” world is the perceived enemy, they don’t understand, or they are potential sources of trouble for you and the cult. The less contact with regular folks the better it is. Cult members become very suspicious of anything or anyone not of the cult. You could say the cult creates a sense of total dependency on the cult for everything and creates a built in paranoia of anything not cult. Secondly, you invest so much into the cult wether it be emotional, intellectual, financial, physical, etc. etc. you live, breath, eat and sleep cult 24/7. You also have to suspend your critical mind because anyone that questions is soon to be made to feel as they are wrong or a threat to the cult by fellow cult members. Given that the cult members are also your peers and support structure one will soon get with the program because one wants to be part of his/her group and stay in everyones good graces. Also they are probably well aware that “trouble makers” get expelled or shunned by others and in many cases abused physically and metally for their behavior. Cult doctrine usually has reasons for this to explain thier behavior ( he must be possessed, he is PTS, he is deranged, and so on). It’s the old better them than me mentality especially if you have been made to fear or loath outside services such as the police, social services or health professionals. One only needs to look at what is happening to the FLDS group in Texas regarding the removal of over 400 children. Despite having the opprtunity to plead their case to the media the cult members are still reluctant and secretive of speaking to the media about thier beliefs and practices. (Anyone that thinks having a bed in a secret room inside a so called temple where it is considered sacred ground and no one actually lives inside of it as not suspicious needs a serious reality check). And thirdly ( I’m sure there are many other points but these are the ones that stand out for me), Marc Headly still has family inside the CoS. In other words when a member leaves he can be guaranteed that if they speak out they will be disconnected from their family thus DM has had that ace in the hole for a long time. He hasn’t needed to resort to more serious measures. Although there are serious allegations regarding several members such as Lisa McPherson that could show that they have indeed silenced people. With the latest development of anonymous it seems to me, in any event, that more ex scientologist are willing to come forward with their stories despite the problems. It’s as if anonymous has made it safe for them for the first time in a very long time. They use to feel isolated and alone. They were also broke which in our justice system, despite the claims to the contrary, money talks. Now they see others speaking out, people like Jason and Marc who are willing to put it on the record. No offence to the old time critics and scienos, they have done a tremendous job in keeping the fire lit. But now with anonymous, instead of a few candles in the dark, we have a huge bonfire lighting all the dark corners of the CoS. People are drawn to that flame and are willing to stand up for their freedom of expression knowing they have others standing besides them. I wish no harm to the regular scientologist still in there. As Jason said there are genuine nice people in there trying to help. However, there is a deep cancer in the CoS and if the members are not willing to seek “treatment” that cancer will spread and the CoS as it is today will be no more.

I didn’t mention Fair Game or Disconnection, because there was no reason to. The guy DID BLOW THE COS, so obviously he’s just as Fair Gamed now as he would have been if he’d actually punched DM back sooner or later. The Fair Game repercussions for his online whistleblowing are just the same, so he might as well have done it. But he didn’t. Before he left the base, I’m sure he had other opportunities to get his revenge on DM. But he didn’t. And this still doesn’t explain why he didn’t call the cops and/or sue.
If DM punched me, DM would have no teeth himself right now and that’s all there is to it. Not to mention he’d find himself in a very public and very messy legal brouhaha. Some people need to grow some spines, but if they had them I guess they wouldn’t be joining cults in the first place.
Comment by deely-bopper — April 28, 2008 @ 8:37 pm
Deely-bopper,
It’s easy to be tough when you’ve never been in a situation where there were at least ten other people who would readily give their lives to protect the person who just beat you and would lie in a court of law to protect that person.
This is why it’s a cult, it doesn’t play by society’s rules. Marc would have killed David given the chance, but then HE would have been the bad guy. Instead of trying to figure out why people haven’t responded the way you *think* you would have, how about you consider the idea that our country has allowed this type of behavior to exist and rail against that instead.
Disparaging people like Marc Headley or Jeff Hawkins not only makes you look like a jerk, but it’s starting to piss me off. So, I am politely asking you to change the subject to something that’s pertinent to the conversation and that’s dismantling the CoS and bringing DM to justice. All the rest is just chest-puffing and pointless.

First off, you’d have to work your way up to that point, and to do so you’d have to fully believe everything.
Secondly, if you DID punch him, you’d not only have to fight off a bunch of guards, but he’d sue you and likely win. They have the cameras, they have the lawyers, and they have a bunch of witnesses who would testify against you. Your lawyer would get to deal with the entirety of the CoS harassing them, plus you and anyone you know.
Ever hear those stories where someone breaks into a house, gets beaten or shot repeatedly, then turns around and sues the owner of the house they broke into– and wins? Exactly.
