From L.A. Times article on Scientologist Reed E. Slatkin and his alleged
swindling of fellow Scientologist investors:
"More than 80 investors attended a second creditors' meeting Monday at the Santa Monica offices of Slatkin's securities lawyer, Gerald E. Boltz.
The meeting included representatives of a group of Scientologists who had invested more than $250 million with Slatkin, attorneys said.
A lawyer for the Scientology investors, Michael A. Sherman, said Tuesday that he had no comment about the case or whether his clients would sue Slatkin.
Boltz confirmed that Slatkin was a member of the Church of Scientology, a
religion founded by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard and adhered to by a
number of Hollywood celebrities."
