I received the following letter by certified mail today. I
called Stephen Jory who agreed that I could post his letter
regarding his role in the Dorian matter after I explained that
it could add much needed comic relief to ars. The OSA flying
circus attempt to frame him and/or Stuart Harris or possibly
turn them into pawns against the Scientology reform movement is
a continuing OP by OSA.

Text of Jory's letter to Minton
Most of the information Wallis posted about me on the website was
either false or misleading. It is true that he poked his head over
the gate and said he wanted to talk to me about Ralph Dorian.
Since it was raining and I was interested in learning more about Ralph
Dorian, I invited him in and we talked for quite a while at the
kitchen table. He had a fat briefcase that he laid on the table and
after a few minutes of conversation it became apparent that it was a
fishing expedition for information about me. After seeing what he
posted on the website, I regret talking to him. I let him use the
bathroom before he left, which was also a mistake. I assume now that
my house is bugged and that the C of S now has my voice on video tap
[the briefcase]so that they can spy on me and edit the tape to have me
saying whatever they want me to say. Illegal, of course, but it
wouldn't be the first time the C of S has resorted to illegal actions.
I'm sorry I didn't follow your script more closely regarding being a
decoy. I apologize for screwing up and telling Wallis that I had met
you. I'm not an actor and I did the best I could. It's no fun being
a decoy for Ralph Dorian. I feel very uncomfortable knowing that
there are people out there thinking I am Ralph Dorian. I've got
better things to do with my life. He doesn't need my cover. The
church will never find him anyway. All they'll ever find are the
decoys he puts out. Incidentally, Stuart says that if I don't want to
be a decoy, he doesn't want to either.
Also, the phone interconnect thing I did for you to provide complete
anonymity for your phone calls may have been a mistake. I'm glad you
switched to using the phone card. I wish the earlier calls could be
erased. The C of S apparently has obtained phone bills [again,
illegally] listing calls made to my number. They apparently also have
my bills including the times I called Stacy for instructions. There
are other calls that they conclude were made to me personally. You
told me they would do that but now I'm having second thoughts. I want
to say I didn't have anything to do with it. As you know, when a call
came in, all I did was confirm that the code matched the code that
came in to Stuart by e-mail. I'd never know who was on the other end
of the calls. I did hear your voice a couple of times, but for all I
know, after I pushed the conference call button it could have been
Michael Jordan talking with the King of Egypt or Monica Lewinsky and
the Pope. All I was was the connector. It's a drag. It makes me look
like I was involved or whatever. I wish you would get another decoy.
I couldn't care less what the Church of Scientology does or how much
money its parishioners contribute into its coffers. As I told Wallis,
they get what they deserve.
As to Ralph Dorian, I really would like to meet the guy. From what
I've read on the website, he sounds like a really fascinating person.
When I was in the Church, [that was fifteen years ago], I always had
the uncomfortable feeling that Ron Hubbard was not telling the whole
truth and that he was actually decieving church members. For
instance, a big fuss was made over the difficulty Ron Hubbard had in
getting through what they call "The Wall of Fire". Why would he have
any difficulty? He wrote the thing.
Anyway, this guy Wallis was a real pain and I told him not to come
back.
Sincerely,
Stephen Jory
