"The Disposition Agreement led to judgments that the defendants were guilty of a conspiracy to obstruct justice with respect to their involvement in the illegal entries. The overt acts alleged as evidence of the conspiracies included handcuffing, gagging, arresting and kidnapping Meisner and imprisoning him under guard when it appeared he was on the brink of surrendering to federal authorities, and harboring a fugitive from justice. These are not placid crimes. Substantial force was used in confining Meisner. In a letter of June 3, 1977, Mary Sue Hubbard told Henning Heldt "to utilize resources to figure out a way to defuse [Meisner] should he turn traitor."
Indictment P14 (45) (J.A. 140). The word "defuse" is not defined, but in light of the hostile acts already directed against Meisner, a reasonable interpretation could include severe bodily injury. Indeed, the search of Scientology's [**102] Washington headquarters turned up a loaded gun." United States v. Hubbard, 493 F.Supp. 209, 232 n.20 (D.D.C. 1979).

215 U.S. App. D.C. 206; 668 F.2d 1238 Question: how many people think that as "Rear" Admiral David Miscavige testified 15 years ago that these criminal abuses no longer occur in the Church of Scientology and how many people think that David Miscavige was a liar and is personally behind abuses occurring to the present day?
That's what I thought.
