I just got this word on Tom Padgett:
Tom is in the Madisonville holding tank with hardened criminals as this PM
on Monday 8/7/2000. Please get the word out. The Court would not appoint
Tom an Attorney, and Tom would not talk without an Attorney so in jail he
went. Please get the word out that Tom is in the Madisonville County
jail, in Madisonville, Ky.
I think some people in Madisonville could be contacted, no? Let's see what
can be done.

An additon I received (some stuff deleted):
Tom is being held in contempt of court. [..] He requested an attorney
today in court and denied one. He was taken to jail with no bond allowed
until next Monday. He has since been given a public defender named Mike
Ruchelle to represent him.

Madisonville County Jail telephone is (270) 821-6704
Civil court telephone is 824-7502
Madisonville News paper 824-3300
Chamber of Commerce 821-3435
There was no 'district attorney' listed, the civil court would have
those numbers though.
the jail will have the most people curious enough about this mess to
want to hear what you have to say. Rest assured that whatever you
tell any person there will make it back to the court, the DA and every
attorney in town.
When I was detained at the instigation of a cult supporter, there were
24 telephone calls to the hospital. The calls had a stunningly
marvelous effect.
When I was first deposited they looked at me with great distain, then
after a couple of hours people began looking at me with a bit of a
puzzled look. then after a few more hours they were being slighlty
defferential. My the time I left the next morning they were calling
me Mr.Scott and telling me thier own stories about the cult.. and
telling me they got 24 calls about my welfare and never had anything
like that happen before.
They got calls about me 24 hours a day from around the world. ... many
of the calls they put through to a hallway telephone where I could
talk. Trust me. A phone call at a time like that is priceless.
The calls make a difference. But need to be professional, decent, and
mentioning heavily the cults tactics of framing people for crimes.
then leave some URL's for the people to look at.... and I recommend
one have on hand some of the judges quotes from Arnies web site.
www.lermanet.com.
I'd say about half of the people you contact will want to hear all
you have on the cult :).
Then Tom will be treated very well. Also you can leave messages for
the prisoner and they will have to deliver them. I got a lot of
moral support that way, and it made a **massive difference in how I
held up. it is a stressful situation Tom is in.
I recommend anyone calling leave their real name and phone number or
at least a return phone number and nick name so Tom can call if he
wants and so the officials don't catagorize your call as a crank call.

Posted by Joe Nickleson on August 08, 19100 at 11:46:21:
A fellow I know, Tom Padgett, was put in Hopkins County Jail today (Aug 7,
2000) because he was unable to produce some documents requested at a
hearing (child custody/child support case). He apparently had no legal
representation present and asked for legal help before he could answer the
question as to where the documents were. Hopkins Circuit Judge Charles
Boteler sent Tom to jail with no chance for bail for one week, so Tom sits
in Hopkins County Jail until his bail hearing next Monday (Aug 14). The
Hopkins County judge and district attorney (Massamore) appear to waging
war on Tom on behalf of his ex-wife and $cientology. This behavor
distasteful... and the local press has not bothered to pick up on the
abuse of Tom Padgett.

Here's what I sent:
<my own address and phone # snipped>
Tom Padgett
Hopkins County Jail
55 East Center St.
Madisonville, KY 42431
Dear Tom:
Hang in there! Lots of ARS regulars and lurkers are pulling
for you, writing letters, making phone calls, and just generally
raising a ruckus! At the very least, theyıre not going to do
this to you without pulling in a lot of noise and hassle for
themselves! Rest assured, you are not alone.
To anyone who may be screening this letter, listen up: Youıve
got the wrong party in jail.
Sincerely,
Colette D. Marine
On the back of the envelope, I wrote "FREE TOM PADGETT". Might
I suggest letters sent for the express purpose of moral
support do the same? Scores of letters with "FREE TOM PADGETT"
on the back would send a pretty strong message.

Got the following on Tom:
Tom is still in jail. He has to go back next Tues. the 22nd for
senticing. It does not look good for Tom. The rumor is that the other
side wants to come to a settlement, but that remains to be seen. The
money was there yesterday to pay for the minor child's future child
support, but that was not what the Ct. wanted. They apparantely said that
Tom did not live up to his diversion plea. All I know is hearsay at this
point. Tom needs all our support and prayers now and thru the next days.

Some more on Tom:
He also wants to thank everyone for the letters and clothing, which
is really coming in handy. He'll be in confinement until next Tues.
for sure and after that we just don't know. Did I tell you he is
being held on a 50,000 bail in maximum security? Can you believe it?

I am totally flabbergasted.
