Annie Broker (Annie Marie Tidman) died 7 months ago

Annie Broker was one of those to whom Hubbard had entrusted the leadership of the cult. When David Miscavige made his coup, she were assigned to eternal RPF. She managed to flee in 1992, but were intercepted by Rathbun, using John Travoltas privat plane. She were returned to Gold, to eventually died 20 yers later, age 55. It appears she died from lung cancer at Gold. Untreated, it is a nasty, brutal way to die.

It was revealed by Marty Rathbun. Karen De La Carriere and him (and I guess Rinder) found out, and was the ones to eventually bring the news to her family. According to Rathbun (i.e. take this with a pinch of salt) the receptionists at Gold had said she could not come to the phone for the last months.

Did she spend much time onboard the asbestos contaminated Freewinds, or was she just chainsmoking like many cult victims?

Seems like a LOT of $cientology victims dying of lung cancers. Way more than average.

No, I don't think she spent much time there. Living on substandard food, working too long hours and sleeping on a cold mattress will wear down your immune system though.

All it would take is ONE trip on the Failwinds.

Breathing asbestos means 99 percent chance of developing cancer in the lungs.

Failure to declare a death, illegal, right?

Poon Hemet coroners and try to get info on cause of death?

Post mortem info must be out there.

Lawfags?

The fake ship at Gold has got blue asbestos in it, too.

When one dies at Int Base, do they just chuck you in the pond, or do they process the dead body for food?

No. Soylent Gold is Wogs!

I laughed at the posts on Marty's blog saying that this sort of thing was all due to the Midgetcabbage. (Not telling the family, etc.) Sure, like it never happened on the Apollo in Hubbard's day. (Susan Meister)

A bullet in the forehead would have been more mercyful.

I appears her death eventually ended up outside, perhaps she even died in a hospital bed. She left a paper trail that De La Carriere eventually picked up. Anyone want to bet she was not cremated at earliest convenience?

Well, yeah, you can't die within the confines of the Int Base. That'd give the law an excuse to enter the premises.

The cause of her death would seem to be something not requiring a criminal investigation, cf. Hubbard's.

The Scientologists have very odd ways of dealing with the dying and the dead.

wow this is sick
I was just talking about her the other day believe it or not.
Someone asked about DM taking over. I was telling them about Annie and Pat Broker and that I thought I read somewhere that someone had said that last time they saw Annie Broker she was really out of it. (this was written MANY MANY YEARS ago after DM took over)
And how terrible and listless she looked and was talking to herself? And that they really "broke her"
I can't remember where I read it.

Such a pretty young picture of her. RIP Annie Broker.
COS can't hurt you any more.

I recall reading same. ^^^ I'll hunt around.

Was it Tory Christman who said this??

How old was she?

I found this , but this wasn't what I read. Although it was prolly what happened before hand?


"attempted suicide
#81 on page three of the January mailing had no last name. The name is Mario Brigliatto.
Broeker, Annie
psychosis
xxxxx Case Supervised Annie Broker when she had a psychotic break in auditing. When last this staff member saw Annie Broeker she was being audited quite a bit. She remembers a lot of screaming and yelling coming out of the auditing rooms on a daily basis, and she sensed something was wrong.
She was last seen being held under armed guard at the Gilman Hot Springs RPF (Rehabilitation Project Force) by Blake (last name withheld at his request), a former Sea Org staff member who currently lives in Los Angeles and is in communication with Joyce Stephenson, Secretary, Cult Awareness Network of Los Angeles."

found it
It was Robert Vaughn
Robert Vaughn Young (September 2, 1998)

"While I was on the RPF, a directive came out from Miscavige saying the supposed final message from Hubbard that named Broeker was a forgery by Broeker and it was being canceled. That same day, Annie Broeker appeared on the RPF. This was not the Annie I had come to know. What stumbled into the RPF was a completely broken person. She was pale and hollow and her eyes were empty. There was no mistaking it. She had been broken and only now was she being thrown away into the trash heap called the RPF. Even then, she was kept under guard, just to be sure."

"Who was there at the Creston ranch when Hubbard died?
* Pat Broeker - MIA.
* Annie Broeker - broken, under their control.
* Two Scientology ranch hands. While trusted to"

Eer - wasn't there something with OT III? Maybe in the end ... we all get a terminal illness of our lungs?

Soon the only one who knows the real truth about Hubbard's end will be David Miscavige.

this would be a great story to run
story line?
She was present at Hubabrd's death. Her and her husband were slated to take over for Hubabrd, but DM stepped in.
How does a person that was trusted by Hubbard die 7 months ago and who was missing for years stay so quiet?
COS needs some 'splainin' to do?
Tony O to the white courtesy phone

yeah whats true for him

/derail
Is Shelly Miscavige the next one we hear about, postmortem?

55

from Marty's blog

"Irrespective of what Annie may have been coerced to sign prior to her passing, I’ll always remember her for what she stood for twenty years ago. When I intercepted Annie during her 1992 attempt to reunite with her then-husband Jim Logan, we flew alone across the country overnight in John Travolta’s private jet. Annie, in the inimitably vague manner in which such prohibited thoughts must be shared within corporate Scientology, communicated in so many words the following, she was returning to the Int Scientology base for one reason alone: to protect LRH’s legacy from David Miscavige."

So......
she was being intercepted from reuntiting with her husband. And he claims she said that she was returning to Int base was to protect LRH's legacy?
I ain't buying it.

and hey JT! did you know what they were using your jet for?
No?
you know/have known! What do you have to say about that Johnny?

Very very sad. So young.

Also fuck Miscavige for not telling her family. Wonder what that twat did with the body? Something unnatural I would guess.

if she died outside of COS, then he himself did nothing. you know they had nothting to do with it.
But I would imagine that cremation would have been the choice?

So she was denied caner treatment and suffered all those years.
Claire Reppen OTIII also died of cancer. One of the last pictures of her was of her setting up a Christmas display in Florida. She looked terrible. All people setting up looked terrible. Pictures were taken by Tildman

;et me clarify
when I said "you know they had nothing to do with it"
I was being sarcastic

I got ya.

From the ESMB seems that she died outside of RPF and Gold. That makes sense since they offload anyone old or infirmed.

Marty helped do her in, which is the part he's withholding from saying. Typical of a known professional accessory.

He knew she was being held there and I'd guess he knows of others. His total lack of action to help these people is unforgivable and I wish criminal.

Sad but I'm not surprised.

From the comments on Marty's blog - this person says she wasn't informed when her mother died either but then goes on to post this:

Lynne,
Right on!
Mind you I saved my mother’s life once applying a Scientology assist when she had a heart attack. Later on, when giving her a nerve assist she said “that cannot be a bad church”. She never said anything bad about Scientology from then on.

I don't even.....

Actually, he did talk about it in one of the segment of the Truth Rundown series with the (then) St. Petersburg news. She had blown Gold (she must have been 35 at the time) trying to reunite with her husband. Rathbun, being flown in in John Travolta's private jet, intercepted her. He described how her shoulders slumped when she saw him, and she came without any arguments. Reading it, I get a strong feeling he feels bad about it.

Rathbun have said she indicated she was coming with him with the intention to outlive Miscavige and repair what he had broken (she was a through and through Ronbot, being born in). She lasted 20 years in the RPF.

Whatever real compassion Rathbun might have had was audited out of him long ago.

Rathbun reported (para 2) that when? And who corroborates it? The other witness to the purported statement is now dead. Plus, there was an entire generation of SO members who knew Miscavige only, and had never heard of her, only seen her running around in boilersuit.
