‘TRAVOLTA & ALLEY’S CULT HID MURDER, TORTURE & BRAINWASHING SECRETS’: The controversial Church of Scientology – which claims John Travolta and Kirstie Alley as members – has come under scrutiny for murder, torture and brainwashing.
In thousands of pages of files, the FBI called the religion a “cult,” and said it attracted “perverts, hypochondriacs and curiosity seekers.”
A March 1981 document revealed cops reported church member William Fisk was “shot to death before members of the group in the Seattle headquarters in the Church of Scientology” on Sept. 11, 1963.
The “premeditated killing ” was triggered by an enraged husband who felt his marriage was imploding because William and the church urged his wife to dump him.
The files a lso described church founder L. Ron Hubbard as being “hopelessly insane” and suffering from “paranoid schizophrenia.”
Hubbard’ s wife, Sara Northrup, accused him of physical and psychological torture thro ugh “denial of sleep, beatings, strangulations and suggestions that she kill herself,” the files said.
In another bizarre incident, officials in New Jersey accused the church of practicing surgery without a license and conducting “scientific torture experiments.”
The FBI raided the church’s offices in Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles in 1977, and arrested 11 members, including Hubbard’s third wife, on espionage and conspiracy charges.
Hubbard was labeled an “unindicted co-conspirator” and went into deep hiding.
He died at age 74 in 1986.
A representative for the church said the claims made in the FBI documents “all have been proven to be false and evince the harassment of a new religion in its formative years.”
