LAPD hasty closure of Scientology missing persons case deemed highly suspicious
August 9, 2013
The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) has quickly and suspiciously closed a highly controversial Scientology missing person case almost as soon as actress Leah Remini filed it, according to news reports on August 9 by New York Daily News, and on August 8 by TMZ, Celebuzz, and E Online.
The rapid closure of the case by LAPD a day after the case was reportedly filed by Leah is deemed highly suspicious, and raises some serious questions about cult leader Miscavige’s missing wife and about LAPD’s handling of the case involving the Scientology cult.
Actress Leah Remini, who recently left the Scientology cult, filed a missing persons case regarding the extended and suspicious absence of cult leader David Miscavige’s wife, Shelly who has not been seen in public for nearly seven years.
E Online of August 8 reports that hours after news broke that Leah Remini had filed the missing person report regarding the whereabouts of the Scientology leader, David Miscavige’s wife, the LAPD confirmed to E! News that the case was now closed.
Good detective work? Or something suspicious going on behind the scenes?
Many Questions Raised about How Quickly the Case Was Closed
The by New York Daily News states that Los Angeles Police have ruled that the missing persons report filed by Leah Remini was "unfounded."
However, in view of numerous conflicting reports, the news media, former Scientologists, and the general public want to know how that determination was made and many questions are being asked regarding exactly how and why the case was so quickly closed.
According to some news reports, that Shelly Miscavige’s attorney contacted LAPD and said his client is not, and never has been missing.
TMZ reports that LAPD closed the case because they had a face-to-face meeting with Shelly, though it remains unclear whether or not she was being held against her will.
An LAPD source told the by New York Daily News that Shelly Miscavige is not missing and that investigators have made some type of contact with her and the investigation is closed.
A detective informed E Online that although he didn't know exactly when or where, other detectives met with the Miscaviges as part of their investigation and saw Shelly in person.
Still numerous are being raised by the news media, former Scientologists, and the general public, including the ones below:
- Was LAPD’s alleged contact with David Miscavige’s wife made in person, by phone, or by some other means?
- If the contact was in person, was Mrs. Miscavige alone or in the company of others from the cult?
- If LAPD did speak face-to-face with someone claiming to be Shelly Miscavige, did they confirm her identity? How do they know for sure that it was really her?
- How much time did they spend talking with her to determine that she was okay?
- Did LAPD make any attempt to speak to her alone?
- Was any attempt made to ascertain whether or not she was being held against her will?
- Did they take any pictures of the woman claiming to be Shelly Miscavige?
- How do we know for sure that Shelly Miscavige is alive and well? Can LAPD provide the news media and the public with any real proof?
Suspicions about Shelly Miscavige and LAPD’s Handling of the Case
There is speculation that Miscavige’s wife, Shelly is being held against her will on Scientology church property. Others strongly feel she may have met with foul play – especially since members who inquire about her whereabouts are subjected to interrogation as to why they want to know and/or punishment.
One of the main reasons Leah Remini parted company with the Church of Scientology is the backlash she received because she dared to keep asking why Shelly had not been seen in public for so many years.
In view of the media interest and the public hue and cry about this woman being missing for almost seven years, it’s highly suspicious that the case was so quickly closed by LAPD.
Where is the unequivocal proof from David Miscavige, the Church of Scientology, and more importantly from the Los Angeles Police Department which so hastily closed this missing persons case, that Shelly Miscavige is alive and well?

The “church,” as they always do, have turned the Shelly Miscavige missing person report into an excuse to launch more of their patented footbullets.
With a straight face, they are alleging to the Hollywood Reporter and other media that this is “ill-advised, ludicrous self-promotion”? Say what?
Does anyone in the world, other than the most addicted KoolAid drinker, really believe that filing a missing person report is “ill-advised”, or better yet “ludicrous self-promotion”. It is clear from the media reports that the well-being and whereabouts of Shelly Miscavige was something of great concern to Leah Remini. Asking about her in the first place landed Leah in hot water in the church. It has been clear in all the media since Leah departed the RCS that it was something she was very concerned about. And she could NOT get an answer. At all.
Let’s not forget, the church has OFTEN played the “where are the police reports” card…. They have tried to discredit whistleblowers about abuses within the church by saying “if this is really true, why are there no reports to law enforcement”? They have hidden behind this smokescreen MANY times. Now someone files a police report and they claim its “self-promotion”?
Shelly Miscavige was no J.D. Salinger. She was a VERY public figure. She accompanied her husband on every trip he made and was at his side for every public appearance he made until 2006. What caused her to suddenly disappear?
Given the recent history withAnnie Broeker — who was also “disappeared” and the church covered up the fact that she was DEAD — even to her family, and Richard Reiss — Senior CS FSO who was also “disappeared” and his death was only disclosed when I went to the coroner’s office and got his death certificate, I would say Leah’s concern was well-placed.
And let’s not ignore the fact that apparently the church is admitting again that talking about their abuses is the preferred method of “self-promotion” in Hollywood these days. They went on to claim ”the entire episode was nothing more than a publicity stunt for Ms. Remini, cooked up with unemployed, anti-religious zealots, such as Tony Ortega, who blog on the fringe of the Internet.” Somehow, if anything is reported by Tony Ortega it becomes a “plot” “cooked up” on the “fringe of the internet.”
By making this ludicrous claim, the church just keeps promoting Tony Ortega. His blog is rated twice as popular as Scientology.org already. If I were a cynic, I would wonder whether the church isnt trying to gain some internet credibility by constantly mentioning Tony Ortega and hoping to cash in on his popularity.
These days, the media run the church statements virtually without comment (and Miscavige pats himself on the back each time “see, when I send something to the media, they always cover it”) as they are SO ridiculously over the top they know everyone that reads them rolls their eyes, shrugs a little and thinks to themselves “those wackos are at it again.”
By the way — if Shelly Miscavige was actually OK, and they were NOT worried that she might scream “Help Me!” — the EASY thing to do would have simply had her make a REAL appearance. It would have put an end to this once and for all.But that didnt happen, so for the time being, she remains a Patty Hearst — reportedly declaring she is happy, though not even in public like Patty Hearst did for the SLA. It begs the question why NOT have her appear in public and be interviewed by some media AWAY from her church handlers? Believe me, Miscavige would love nothing more than to be able to prove Leah Remini and the lunatic fringe of the internet to be totally wrong. It is telling that he could not afford to make the attempt.
So, from the fringe of the internet, I give a shout out to Leah Remini for doing what anyone who was GENUINELY CONCERNED about the well-being of a friend would do. After asking and asking and not getting any response she did what any responsible friend would do. A REAL publicity stunt would have been to allege Shelly was missing in the media and then DO NOTHING.
That is not Leah Remini’s nature. I have known her for a long time. While Tom Cruise famously claims he is a champion of human rights — he has ignored the abuses right before his eyes. Not so Leah Remini.

Leah Remini's Scientology journey, in GIFs
Aug 09, 2013 12:13 PM by Julie Sprankles
ARRIVEDERCI, TOM CRUISE!Mere weeks after breaking up with Scientology, King of Queens actress Leah Remini has filed a missing persons report for the head of the church's wife. While Shelly Miscavige's whereabouts are no laughing matter, we break the tension with a lighthearted look at Leah's history with the controversial religion. When she was recruited by Scientology's Sea Org at the age of 12. When she lost food privileges if she was late coming back to the Org. When she was still all warm and fuzzy about Scientology. When she invited buddy Jennifer Lopez to the wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, aka Tomcat. When she (reportedly) saw church leader David Miscavige getting all cozy with his secretary at TomKat's wedding. When she heard Tom had invited David to tag along on the honeymoon with him and Katie. When she was written up in a "Knowledge Report" for asking to change her seat at TomKat's wedding. When she underwent "sec checking" — intense interrogations while hooked up to an "e-meter" — after asking why Miscavige's wife, Shelly, wasn't at TomKat's wedding. When she found out that an "e-meter" is supposed to tell whether you are being spiritually impeded by past life experiences through measuring electrical resistance of the body's static field. When she realized all that could have been avoided had she skipped out on the TomKat wedding. When the church told her she needed "thought modification." What we imagine that process was like. When she suspected Kirstie Alley was tweeting about getting her disconnected. When she confirmed she had, indeed, flown the Scientology coop. When she vowed, "No one is going to tell me how I need to think, no one is going to tell me who I can, and cannot, talk to." When she filed a missing person's report for Shelley Miscavige. When she told People magazine, "I am not about to shut up." |
