Continuing the Big List of THOUSANDS of Former Members Who Spoke Out

New forum page, new current total count: 3158 names

The free preview at https://www.booktopia.com.au/the-capital-of-paradise-mark-taylor/ebook/9781087975047.html shows he's a journalist who investigated Scientology, not an ex-member.

The petition is no longer live, the wayback link to it is https://web.archive.org/web/20150710154200/http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopscientology and signatures are 100 per page. There are over 100 pages to look through, ugh

The page says there were 8851 signatures, which my initial spreadsheet also had. So going through all these pages shouldn't be necessary as I did so in 2015.

The page showing the signature for each specific name has to be linked to directly from their entry in the list.

Wait, are you going to add all of them?! I wouldn't do that? But your choice I guess.

ETA might consider just linking to my 2015 post instead if you do

No, which means going through 100 pages to find the one or two names you mentioned spoke out elsewhere. 8-years-ago me would've churned through that many without going "ugh", but then 8-years-ago me was probably the one who enthusiastically ensured all 100 pages of signatures were sent to the wayback machine. It's no coincidence the signature numbers in the wayback copy match the spreadsheet numbers at the time.

Dan Mosqueda

Dan might be short for Dante: https://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/d/dante-guerra-mosqueda.html

Looks to me that the link needed for a specific name can be derived, but I'm not sure yet.

Signatures 1-100 are in the link with a 1 at the end
Signatures 101-200 are in the link with 100 at the end

Looks like the signatures are in the same order as they are in the first spreadsheet. SO might be able to create a spreadsheet with all the names and the corresponding link. Would that be helpful?

Indeed it would!
Also,

Dan is already on the list, added when the total was at 2820.

Here you go. For some reason that I'm too lazy to check out it isn't QUITE what you would like. Some of the entries may be 1 page later or earlier then the generated link.

But I think for by far most entries it's close enough.

Chris Shelton's most watched video apart from 1, Scientology is Coming Apart at the Seams

8 y old. Not that many comments by people also in completions, and to my surprise also people defending scientology. In recent video's I haven't seen that - at least until now.

Would someone who got to OT VI really ask that question and then only answer with a movie reference instead of their own experience? Makes me strongly suspect those completions are not hers.

I thought someone having completions from >40 y ago might use a reference to that movie. But when in doubt...

Except anyone who was in long enough to reach OT VI then got out knows The Manchurian Candidate is the OPPOSITE of the gradual indoctrination that happens in Scientology, especially on a video about someone like Marc Headley born into it.

And here I am thinking this mrs. Palmer is a nice old lady who maybe is remembering things wrong.

Guess you're right.

The following people on the big list are also in the list of names of people signing the tax exemptio petition, but the word 'Petition' isn't in their entry. That may be for good reason though.

Christopher Reeve died in 2004
Dave Adams
john watson
maria pia gardini died 2012. Petition started 2011 I think?
Synthia Fagen
For the others now adding the signature might be rather easy.

Shelise Ann Sola of the YT The Cults to Conciousness channel did an interview with Dani Armando

From the description in the video I go to https://www.rebirthrescueanimalsanctuary.com/team where here full name is mentioned

https://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/d/dani-armando.html

Video content:
- Delphi school
- She lived at Celebrity Centre. She mentions the street name, Franklin, which is LA.
- From age 15 she starts meeting people outside of the COS which starts her pushing back againsts parents etc
- At 15 her mom files for divorce with the court. Mom gets declared.
- Dani's boyfriend at the time broke up with her (disconnection, at 35:23)
- A Sea Org member tells her she can't live with her mom anymore when Dani was 15, but Dani says no. She's done
- But she is UTR - showing up for course like once a year to prevent more disconnections.
- Around 26 (?) she got out totally.
- Sexual assault while still in (not much detail), got asked what she did to pull it in.
- Dani tells about posting a clip from the Aftermath about a COS school on social media. Immediatly people disconnect from her.
- Mention of DM hiding from being served

At 53:55 Shelise tells she acted in a COS commercial.

Have tried the brute force approach for a number of other videos by exes but it looks the well has dried up.

Back to regular programming? Hope I'm wrong.

Guess I was wrong, but I still have doubts about adding these. So your call.

Might be worth to keep an eye on this one. Clip from what I assume is an upcoming episode. From what I understand it was a German woman who was in the sea org. Could also be someone who is already on? Most of the YT vids coming out are with people already on.

Episode 16 of The Frankie Files came out in May last year and is about the lawsuit by Valeska and the Baxters (10+ minutes in). The Frankie Files is now up to episode 46.

Other than Jane Smith (a known common pseudonym like John Smith) which I won't add (unless she writes a comment with the specific course and year matching her one completion), were there any specific names in your previous post you have doubts about? Perhaps the ones like Paul Hughes and Thomas Muller with Youtube profile pics showing them far too young to match the dates of their completions?

Added 6 of the 9 names (minus the ones I mentioned above).

I just did a breakdown of the number of Clears (536) or higher (499) on the list.
If I haven't miscounted then we need just one Operating Thetan more to reach 500 OTs who have left and spoken out!

Yes, 499 OTs:

OT VIII 62
OT VII 115
OT VI 78
OT V 99
OT IV 62
OT III 66
OT II 6
OT I 11

Total 499

In yesterday's Three Amigos video Aaron said he is this week going to release an interview he did with Kellicopter. See to be confirmed thread. Not sure if she will use her full name.

For Tanya Santiago, already on, Aaron did a vid with her with evidence of the sexual assault

(Premiering while I create this post.)

This channel is releasing some great material!

Yay!

I guess I better keep a closer eye out for wiki vandalism now

It's still great to see shoutouts!

Says here it's his first time using his real name. My comment asking if he's the same guy as the one in the video with Tory is under moderation.

It's not just Mike who is posting. For YEARS Karen de la Carriere has copied his posts, Tony's, and I'm sure others, into all kinds of other forums, such as ESMB Redux:

https://exscn2.net/threads/ex-scientologists-who-have-spoken-out.6667/

and MANY others - mostly Facebook groups, as far as I can tell.

My guess is it's not his first time commenting on Mike's blog, but is the first time commenting there using his real name. He even mentions Tory in the comment.
