  • Inside Scientology's Secret Prison: The Dark Truth of the RPF (A True Crime Podcast)
    Oct 14 2024

    Email us and tell us what topics you would like us to cover.

    What if the so-called path to spiritual rehabilitation was a labyrinth of control and punishment? Join Sandi McKenna and Abraham Aurich as we expose the hidden world of Scientology's Rehabilitation Project Force (RPF) and challenge the Church's narrative. Hear firsthand from actress Leah Remini and former Sea Org members as they uncover the harsh realities of forced labor, isolation, and stringent re-education behind the Church's facade of a voluntary and transformative experience. Listen to the powerful stories of courage and defiance from Claire and Mark Headley and Laura DiCrescenzo, who faced legal battles against the Church over allegations of abuse and human rights violations. These accounts not only question the RPF’s practices but also highlight the broader issue of how religious freedom can sometimes shield organizations from accountability.

    As we navigate the murky waters of the Church's controversial practices, we also shine a light on the ongoing impact under David Miscavige's leadership. Despite the RPF's quiet discontinuation due to public scrutiny, reports suggest similar oppressive measures continue. We call for greater transparency and legal oversight to protect those within these systems, urging societal action to prevent further abuses. This episode demands we reconsider what we know about Scientology, the power dynamics at play, and the struggles faced by those seeking justice against a backdrop of religious protection. Prepare to confront the chilling realities of the RPF as we advocate for change and accountability in the face of religious freedom’s complex challenges.

  • Uncovering Narconon: The Controversial Rehab Linked to Scientology (A True Crime Podcast)
    Sep 26 2024

    Email us and tell us what topics you would like us to cover.

    What if the very rehabilitation program you trusted to save your loved one from addiction was built on controversial and unverified methods? This episode pulls back the curtain on Narconon, a drug treatment program with deep ties to Scientology, founded by William "Bill" Benitez after being inspired by L. Ron Hubbard's teachings. We scrutinize the origins and operations of Narconon, questioning the safety and efficacy of its practices, which are often administered by staff members lacking proper medical training.

    Join us as we uncover the questionable practices and troubling statistics behind Narconon rehab centers. From inconsistent success rates to flawed studies and misleading data, we leave no stone unturned in exposing the program's dubious credibility. We investigate the failed attempt to establish a facility in Bouquet Canyon, California, and the regulatory violations that came to light, further casting doubt on the integrity of Narconon's operations.

    What happens when a family’s deep-rooted faith collides with mental illness? Join us as we uncover the harrowing story of Jeremy Perkins, whose mental health struggles and his family's unwavering belief in Scientology led to a devastating tragedy. This episode takes a critical look at the Perkins family's decision to shun traditional psychiatric treatment in favor of the controversial practices endorsed by their religion, which ultimately set the stage for an unthinkable act of violence.

    Explore the life of Ellie Perkins, a compassionate woman whose dedication to Scientology and her artistic endeavors left an indelible mark on her community. We'll recount her journey from the vibrant counterculture of the 1960s to her successful glass painting business in Western New York. However, her tragic death at the hands of her son raises profound questions about the intersection of faith and mental health. Through first-hand accounts and investigative insights, we aim to understand how a different approach to mental health could have perhaps altered the course of events.
