PODCAST: Auditing Mary Sue Hubbard while Scientology kept her on house arrest
Yesterday, we posted another great piece by former Scientology auditor and Sea Org member Bruce Hines.
This time he had a bit of a bombshell for us. It turns out that in 1993, he was sent to a house in Los Feliz, California to audit a particularly special person in Scientology’s long history.
And that’s Mary Sue Hubbard, the third and last wife of founder L. Ron Hubbard, who had died some seven years previously.
For the first time, we get some idea what it was like to audit the famous Mary Sue, who went to prison for her husband, and at one time oversaw Scientology’s vast spying network, the Guardian’s Office. What a piece. And we couldn’t wait to ask Bruce even more questions about it.

Mike Rinder book excerpt: Page 187
In November 2002 Mary Sue Hubbard died....the head agent who had been living with her (her daily auditor) Neville Potter flew to Clearwater. I was sitting in the conference roomwith Miscavige and Marty Rathbun when Neville walked in.
He announced to David Miscavige with a smug grin "The witch is dead."
"Finally" Miscavige responded.
An SP is like a magnifying glass. All He need to do is focus on you, and you catch on fire in your life some way. David Miscavige is the SP of Scientology. He is a 7th dynamic Cherub. "A cherub is one of the unearthly beings who directly attend to God, according to Abrahamic religions. The numerous depictions of cherubim assign to them many different roles, such as protecting the entrance of the Garden of Eden." DM is not clearing the planet , but closing in into terror maze for a few. Scientology's goal is not to clear the planet but destroy its; life.
