Mrs. Therese Minton
Dear Mrs. Minton:
Last Sunday I had a short letter delivered to you in
the interest of opening up communication to resolve matters
in which we share a mutual concern.
Though I did not hear from you, within hours my letter
to you had been characterized on the Internet as a 6-page
letter reportedly containing statements I did not make. The
posting by Bob is attached in case you have not seen it.
Among other things, it includes a rather unpleasant threat.
You are probably under considerable stress and you need
to understand that my interests at this point are similar to
yours. I want to inform you of facts and assist you, and I
think I am in a position to do so.
Neither I nor anyone in the Church of Scientology has
ever had any intention to interfere with your life and
happiness. For reasons unbeknownst to me, your husband set
upon a vicious crusade against my religion. He gallantly
stated on national television that when you said you'd had
enough, he'd stop. It is ironic that in this same show Stacy
Young referred to him as an angel who came out of nowhere
into her life.
It's a well-known fact that people have had violent
reactions when their hidden secrets are revealed and this
appears to have been the case after Bob's affair with Stacy
Young was inadvertently exposed. As you may have learned, he
fired shots at people who saw him and Stacy together at your
home in Sandown. I would imagine that at this point you have
had enough, yet he is clearly not stopping and, in fact, is
now going to dangerous extremes.

I reiterate the request of my earlier letter. I wish
to make you aware of information through a face-to-face
meeting at your convenience. Again, I believe that if you
were aware of all the facts you would not support what is
happening.
You can contact me at 213-960-3500 or by fax at
213-960-5308.
Sincerely,
Mike Rinder

Mrs. Minton, I have never met you, and your only
information about me is what you have heard from your husband
and Stacy Young who would have nothing but the worst things
to say about me.
