Daniels asks: Is it dangerous to take on Scientology? (March 31,

Narconon's Per Wickstrom Libels Vince Daniels In
retaliation for Vince Daniels' efforts to expose the goings-on at
Narconon Stone Hawk, the owner, Per Wickstrom, registered a domain
using Vince Daniels' name, at which he outright libels Vince Daniels.
We won't dignify Per Wickstrom's filth with a link. His reckless and
malicious actions leave him open to a possible defamation lawsuit by
Daniels, and warn his potential customers what Narconon Stone Hawk is
really like: a Scientology franchise run by a desperate
lunatic.

- Excerpts
from the Narconon Withdrawal Specialist Course textbook used at
Narconon StoneHawk.
- 11/21/2006 Memo reminding
staff to turn in their statistics each Thursday by 7 AM. (This is
because all Scientology organizations must report their stats to
headquarters by Thursday 2pm.) Staff who submit late reports will be
"assigned a condition of Liability", terminology that comes straight
from Scientology's "ethics" procedures.
- 12/3/2006 Memo urging
staffers to deliver at least 300 minutes of "assists" per shift, and
warning them that they will be punished if caught exaggerating their
numbers. This was apparently an ongoing problem, as the warning is
repeated in later memos.
- 12/17/2006 Knowledge report
written by Paul J. about verbal abuse and humiliation of a student by
the Withdrawal Admin, and a threat of violence by the student.
(Text version)
- 12/17/2006 Cramming order
written on Paul J. for not doing assists on a patient who reported
aches. The term "star-rate" (abbreviated *rate) is Scientology
jargon.
- 1/12/2007 memo from
John Weisenfluh to all withdrawal specialists, reminding them that
"assists" are to be given only to same-sex students, and that when going
outside with students they must not stray further than the parking lot.
- 1/17/2007 Knowledge report
(KR) describing a staff member, apparently a former addict (thus
likely a Narconon graduate) who is seeking drugs to get high. "TIT"
at the end stands for "This is true", a standard Scientology closing.
(Text version)
- 1/20/2007 Knowledge report
explaining that a drug-test was redone because Narconon "have had some
problems with UAs [urinalyses]". But apparently this was contrary to
instructions.
- 2/3/2007 Knowledge report
describing apparent falsification of a drug test by a staff member.
- 2/3/2007 Memo
reminding staff how to properly conduct a urinalysis test.
- 2/8/2007 Cramming order requiring
re-study of training materials on when to give a student an "assist".
(Text version)
- 2/14/2007 Knowledge Report describing
failure to deliver medication, falsification of treatment records, and use of the "psych" drug Ativan.
(Text version)
- 2/15/2007 Knowledge Report
(KR): three withdrawal staffers rebel against a cramming order issued
because of their failure to deliver enough "assist" minutes to a
student. They argue that chronic staffing shortages make it
impossible to provide proper attention to all the students in their
care. (Text version)
- 2/21/2007 Memo reminding
staffers of the proper procedure for preparing CalMag, Hubbard's
calcium/magnesium/vinegar potion that is supposed to calm the nerves
of an addict in withdrawal.
- 2/27/2007 Comm (memo)
from John Weisenfluh, W/D IC (Withdrawal In Charge), reminding staff
that they are not to sleep on the job, lie about the number of minutes
of "assists" they give per shift, or stop an "objectives" session
("look at that wall; thank you") before reaching the desired end
phenomena.
- 2/28/2007 Knowledge Report
(KR) describing "the ham incident". A staff member and a student fall
ill after eating the ham at dinner. Paul J. thinks "food poisoning",
but the staff nurse dismisses this. (Text version)
- Letter from Kate
Wickstrom to former employee Paul J., making false and ridiculous
allegations, and warning him not to try to contact two of his former
co-workers. (Text
version)

locator operated by the Substance
Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration of the
U. S. Department of Health. A SAMHSA exmployee explained that this is
because they are listed by the State of Michigan as a drug abuse
treatment facility; SAMHSA does not look in to the quality of care
provided by the organizations they list, and does not appear to have a
mechanism for reporting complaints. To (politely) express your
dissatisfaction with this situation, contact SAMHSA's Bob Mason.
