We first wrote about Tory Christman in 2001, and 22 years later it’s still one of our favorite stories of all time — about a woman who went from one of Scientology’s most reliable foot soldiers to one of its most resilient critics. She was in the courtroom this week at the Danny Masterson retrial, and we were curious about how it compared to some of the trials she had attended as a church operative. We think you’re going to find her observations fascinating.
I gorged Tory's videos when I first fell down the rabbit hole. Tory is an amazing person with a fascinating story. She is a burst of light and colour! ♥️
I’ve known Tory for so many years. She is a bundle of joy, intelligence, discernment and caring. She is articulate and knowledgeable. Fun to hear her observations of the trial.
For realsies, Tony is a hero & Tory is one of my favorite people I've never met. Just total kindred spirit vibes. If ever there is another howdycon imma be following her and Kate Bornstein around with puppydog eyes like the aspiring lil SP I am. 😍
It was so interesting and fun. I am so glad to get some of your court inside info, Tony, and Tory, thanks for all your info about your Scientology experiences.
Any info from Anyone on this:
I had a bad Snr. C/S experience with David Mayo (Snr. C/S INT) when I was at the INT Base. I was told that he had looked over my Sec Check and adjudicated that I was a List One Rockslammer.
I was one of 200+ INT Staff that were offloaded in the uplines' great purge during four weeks in 1982.
Shortly thereafter, Hubbard, personally declared and offloaded Mayo but I am wondering if that was because Miscavige had fed LRH false reports regarding Mayo or has it true that Mayo had become corrupted and out tech.

I agree with Tory. Tony is doing an amazing job of court coverage. His work ethic is admirable.
I so love Tory!
Tony’s reporting & Tory’s observations are a great combination. So great to hear them converse.
