Karen,
Do you know anything about Lisa Hoden?
I ask because she is originally from here in Chicago. I knew her when I first go in and in fact she helped to get me in by coming to pick to me up and bringing me to the org for auditing.
I really liked her. She is a singer and so when she joined the SO, she went to Gold. This is Lisa:

Anyway, I did read that she got sent to the RPF at one point. Okay, the reason I ask is that prior to me exiting the C Of S for good, I went to my last IAS Membership Officer Conference at ASHO and I ran into Lisa. She was working the Canteen at ASHO. Anyway, she was a nervous wreck.
She looked horrible. She was frantic, cowed, and looked almost terrified. It was eery and I thought to myself (and this is while I was still toeing the line), "Some bad stuff happened to this woman. I wonder what the hell it is".
She was not herself AT ALL.
Do you know anything?
Hello Sindy,
Lisa Hoden spent several years at INT base, and the demeanor and look you saw on her is the *NORM* for someone who has been battered, abused, punished, given significant sleep deprivation and Oliver Twist slop.
Her husband Ken Hoden was the whipping boy for everything that ever went wrong at GOLD/INT Base. As "General Manager" of the base, or internally "Port Captain" he was always blamed for everything, even an Anonymous protest.
When he was RPFd for not getting Highway 79 shut down, that would have been the end of their 2d. It is normal for a spouse of a newly RPF'd Sea Org member to divorce their spouse.

David Miscavige has ordered and ordered and "ordered" that Gilman Springs Road to be shut down. I believe this has been going on for some 20 years.
Some Sea Org Members who could not get it done, suffered Drachonian punishments.
DM demanded that the Sea Org member "over rule" the Riverside County planning commission and get the road CLOSED.
It was reported to me that Ken Hoden, "Base Captain" was sent to the RPF for years and years and years for not getting Gilman Springs Road shut down.
350-400 Sea Org members that live in lockdown, on INT base ~~~Riverside County's own private Guantanomo Bay. They are prisoners in the State of California.
DM wants more privacy ~~ of course.
It would definitely make it harder to blow (flee). Tom de Vocht former CO CMO CW made it over the fence, even though he injured his leg. The scenario of the road shut down means it would seal it off from the world.
One particular punishment bothered me.
DM complained how the trucks driving through disturbed his sleep in his palatial mansion.
As Ken Hoden and Muriel Defresne had not achieved the shut down of Gilman Springs Road , he ordered them to stand on the road from very early morning til breakfast to watch and "hear" the trucks go by. The trucks that were disturbing DM's sleep.
This 4 hour stand-on-the-road from 4am or so onwards was to be complied with til they got Gilman Springs Road shut down !
This went on for months. They had SLEEP Deprivation while they stood in sleep time on Gilman Springs Road to "hear" the trucks that was interfering with DM's sleep.
It was cruel and unusual punishment for not complying with DM's orders to GET GILMAN ROAD SHUT DOWN
This is only really real when one experiences 4 hours sleep and has to stand in the cold Hemet desert on the road in the early hours of the morning week in and week out.
SLEEP DEPRIVATION is first in line of punishment with DM's orders. I think it is dark and despicable that a "Church" leader can order sleep deprivation to those who do not comply with his whimsical and sometimes impossible orders.
Ken did a long RPF. Lisa was RPFd too, but have no info as to why and not as an overlap with Ken Hoden's RPF. I will check to see if I can get an update on her for you.
This is a nice little mind control mechanism used by the CULT to trap people to do slave labor! If there are any lurkers out there - why does David Miscavige get a nice villa to live in while the rest of you live in dorms and no luxuries or even a car. Why is he more important than a staff member in a Class 5 Morgue dedicating their entire lives to the Cult? Ever ask yourself that question? That would be enough for me to get OUT!
