Scientology tried to 'derail' star's rape trial by harassing prosecutor, suit says; church calls claim 'false'
Nearly six months after actor Danny Masterson was convicted of sexually assaulting two fellow members of the Church of Scientology, lawyers for his victims filed a document that contained a stunning new allegation against the faith.
Submitted in a downtown Los Angeles court as part of a years-old civil lawsuit against Scientology, the document referenced a purported effort by the church to “derail” the criminal proceedings against Masterson.
“Defendants and their agents engaged in a campaign of harassment and intimidation directed at one of the prosecutors assigned to Defendant Masterson’s trial,” the declaration from civil attorney Simon Leen read. “That prosecutor’s home and car windows were broken, the prosecutor’s home electronics were tampered with, and Defendants’ agents surveilled the prosecutor.”
You can just hire cops to be private security, no tax dollars necessary. The neat part is that even if they aren't acting in an official capacity, they can still use police resources (like squad cars), wear police uniforms, and they're still police (with all the same privileges, lack of liability, and license to murder).
The filmer was active in their municipality and was calling sergeants out by name.
Good, they're public servants. Their identities should be clear for all to.see.
Lemme guess: Clearwater, FL?
They also use police funds by claiming it as overtime.
I like the NPOV there.
