The Scandal of Scientology by Paulette Cooper
Requirements: EPUB Reader, 364 KB
Overview: This book is a critical expose of the activities and beliefs of the Church of Scientology. Writing it got her in a lot of trouble with the Scientologists: Through the years as she continued to expose the Church, Paulette Cooper was the target not only of litigation but of several harassment campaigns including a Scientology campaign known as Operation Freakout, the goal of which was to deter Cooper from criticism of Scientology by having her “incarcerated in a mental institution or jail or at least to hit her so hard that she drops her attacks. In a previous campaign titled Operation Dynamite the church sent itself forged bomb threats, purportedly from Cooper, using her typewriter and paper with her fingerprints on it; further plans included bomb threats to be sent to Henry Kissinger. The Church’s campaign was discovered when the FBI raided Scientology offices in 1977 and recovered documents relating to the operation. The Church finally agreed to an out-of-court settlement with Cooper in 1985 in exchange for her discontinuing her legal actions against Scientology.
