After years of fighting Scientology in the public arena, Leah Remini will take the battle to court with a new lawsuit.
Rolling Stone“After 17 years of harassment, intimidation, surveillance, and defamation, I am filing a lawsuit against Scientology and David Miscavige,” Remini said in“While advocating for victims of Scientology has significantly impacted my life and career, Scientology’s final objective of silencing me has not been achieved. While this lawsuit is about what Scientology has done to me, I am one of thousands of targets of Scientology over the past seven decades.
The lawsuit alleges that the church’s Office of Special Affairs was involved in “monitoring the activities of Scientologists and non-Scientologists and exacting revenge and retribution on anyone who has been declared an enemy of Scientology.” The lawsuit also details “the myriad of ways” that the church’s leaders and agents allegedly “financed and ordered coordinated campaigns” against Remini dating back to 2006, seven years before the actress departed from Scientology.
Remini’s lawsuit seeks a trial by jury to determine compensatory and punitive damages for the decades-long campaign against her.
