In her book, LeClair claims that government investigations into her and her business partner were instigated by the Church of Scientology, a claim the church, as well as an official for the California Dept. of Business Oversight denies.

Michelle LeClair Shares Her Story Of Leaving Scientology | Megyn Kelly TODAY
NOT A CHURCH, not a religious organization. It's a business and it has to start paying taxes.
The rich don;t pay taxes, so why should the phony churches. We working class slaves are the real supporters of this unfair slave class system.
Because they support it,they make money of it too,they too want brainwashed ppl.
@@ivenkrusteva7239 yup
@@garybrunecz7785 yup
It’s a disgusting Cult!!!
why does Scientology say that EVERYONE who leaves is a liar.
Warren Moore - Is that an actual question or rhetorical?
Thats their only defence. Numerous people who've left cant be wrong..
Take a look at the witch hunting this pseudo called church has done on Leah Remini
@@seth_5394 does it matter?
@@pain-killeryates5448 Exactly it's the same story of how they treated ppl like slaves and how they want women to get an abortion, etc..so much more horrible things
Complete bias from Kelly. Kudos to Michelle for keeping it real and honest. That's what 100% integrity looks and sounds like.
That's what a good interviewer is supposed to do! Not take everything their guest claims as 100% truth! But I do believe Michelle Leclair is telling the truth!
Mygyn Kelly is not a good person. She can be cruel.
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves”
These poor children are so brainwashed that they believe that Tom cruise is God ? i can't speak for anyone else only that speaks volume to me. Lord help those children who don't have a voice
Word
Amen
Amen, the sad thing is..is that this woman is trying to gain the world and will lose her sou if she doesn't repent. I wasnt a believer until 2 yrs ago when God drew me. Nobody told me, wasn't seeking..didn't go to church. I was convicted and didnt know why. My fiancee I'd lived with for 8 yrs and I could no longer be close at all.. even still.. we both feel it. We have to hug like there's a beachball between us. I thought we just had to marry and studied and prayed about it. Everyone told us it was fine but God didn't let me believe it and answered me 9 months into praying when I could receive it and understand. He was very gentle but clear. He still speaks sentences today to people. As much as I had tried to find a loophole there wasn't one. The only allowance for dating or marriage after a one covenant marriage already is death(Romans 7) and he was divorced with a living ex. We had to split up. God still sees this woman as married and Luke 16:18 and 1 Cor. 6:9-11 is clear that adulterers won't inherit the Kingdom.
Amen
Its banned in germany as a dangerous cult
*eye roll* it's not banned, it's categorized as a cult
Good!
it´s not banned. we have "churches" in Berlin, Hamburg and Baden-Würtemberg
@@ask825 It should be banned. Totally evil!
sadly it isn't banned but since (last year?) it is watched by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution (I think that is the equal description), a big step forward. We hope they will forbid it but I'm not sure if this is realistic. But this control hopefully keeps the small .....
How can people that are intelligent be so blind sighted with this cult? The government needs to go after this cult.
@just Bfree The herd mentality is part of it. Many entertainers get into it because they hope it will give them connections in the industry. Then there are others, like Leah Remini, who are indoctrinated into Scientology as children. I'm glad people are exposing Scientology but they aren't all innocent victims. This woman being interviewed seems pretty shady herself. The state came after her (two separate agencies) for bilking a bunch of investors out of their money in a Ponzi scheme not because Scientologists made them go after her but because she is a scammer. Her partner in crime, who she agreed to testify against, is still is a Scientologist. She's leaving a lot out and making herself look like a victim.
@just Bfree I sure hope you are only referring to Scientology - which is NOT a Church, by the way. True churches are places of acceptance, kindness, respect & loving support; in no way, shape or form do any of them think or act like they are "better than everyone else", as you said. They are there to support you in times of need, celebrate good things with you & join you in simple fellowship. That's it. No tricks, no deception. Just honest, open love for fellow man. I'm so sorry if you have experienced something else.
Not so hard to imagine people being "blind sided" by slick programmers on behalf of an entity li k e Scientology. Look at the millions who were hood winked into believing the FED Corp version of 9-11 and sign off on the global piracy. .
Jim Jones......
Maybe the government is part of this cult 🤔🤔🤔🤔
I was 14 when jehovah witnesses came to my door. I was brainwashed for 24 years. It's horrible how they hold you back so I totally get this
I had similar experience yet I am proud to say my dad told them I wasn't interested... glad you got out and sorry for the 24 years u waisted.
Scarlett Hoxie Jehovah's witnesses come to my house a lot also but I'm not brainwashed because I know my bible they cant tell me anything I dont already know about the bible not saying I know everything but I know enough not to be deceived Jehovah's witnesses are taught not to accept any other religions tracs from other religions so I didn't except their watchtower even tho I have read it I got one from my bible teacher any way no one can brainwash u if u study your bible for yourself with the aid of the HolySpirit.
@@truthteller7228 My dad knew the bible as a work of literature. They brought young Jehovah Witnesses to practice to see if my dad could talk them out of going on with the religion. He gave them tea and blasted their bible interpretations. So funny.
Truth Teller that’s a bit weird. Although I left the JW’s a long time ago, when I was a kid I went with my dad at door to door and a woman had a priest with her. My dad end up talking with the priest with a bible. After awhile the priest said “that’s in your bible” and my dad close the bible and said “this bible is yours” the priest freaked out. I left but not because they don’t know the bible, they follow the bible more than anyone else, that’s why it’s a nightmare.
Srfotog I’m sorry, I’m not even with the Jw’s, I grew up on it and I left and maybe is the Jw’s in USA or something but Why would the Jw’s bring new people to someone out of their religion to “practice”? I’m not saying to follow them but I just hate this type of lies to belittle their knowledge.
The IRS is to blame ! They should be held accountable!
True...Fred Goldberg...Director of IRS...was a complete coward....and rolled over for them
Megan Kelly threw so much shade in this interview and this woman came off as completely credible and honest! I believe ever word she said
Seriously!!
Megan kelly gives a really bad interview. She gets this good guest and she's given a good script by the writers to ask but in the side she puts her own bad opinion. Give the interview and stop putting the commentary. She got hired to be a host because she's good looking. This shows stays on because of the good writer and great guest.I wish they put on a new host with better personality
I can't believe this is the first time this is mentioned! This lady has been through enough already & in an attempt to share her story she has to put up w MK eluding to her guilt & encouraging her personal responsibility. It's clear this woman is intelligent, classy, professional & clearly a victim of scientology's 'fair game' practice.
Marcus Barton-Sconiers definitely shade going on there.
Megan Kelly was mean and all the time tried to downplay the effect Scientology had on the guests life ,plus much as she says she was cleared ,Megan kept saying it’s a lie,you would have thought she got a Cheque from Scientology church to defend them .
She's drop dead gorgeous.
Calm down Leo, you don't have the rights parts. She's on my team...Team girl love. Megan is all yours though...we absolutely don't want her any where near our community. LoL
Jax Bah...
Nose job!
@@JacquelynNhi 😂😂😂👏👏👏❤👍🏳️🌈
She is a beautiful lady
Scientology, "If I can't have your money, nobody can. Including you."
I would of been gone they get thousands out of these people who get brain washed I don't think I could get brain washed
I love to see strong women like her , who, that no matter how hard the" bad people " try , she will Not be broken.
💙💙
Beautiful, intelligent, talented woman. So glad she is free.
Definetely glad. But not because of her beauty. because she is a human being.
Women are drawn to people with more money, lots power and God like Guru like status. Something about hunting for the alpha male sperm whale!
@@theimplacableauthoritarian2938 - Ah, so that is why Tom Cruise is the most ardent advocate of Scientology and Nicole Kidman left her marriage to Cruise because she detested Scientology. That is why John Travolta is also a member. Sounds like someone is spouting the same old sexist drivel. Comments about the female guest being 'a 9' tend to reinforce the view that this is just tired and tiresome misogyny being rehashed. Tedious, boring, unoriginal. It's comforting for some people to put half the population of the planet into a box and label them because this way people without too many resources find women easier to deal with. Sad.
@@thumbprint7150 Well, his nature shows in his name. All authoritarians are like this.
She was always free to leave at any time.
I don't care what anybody has to say, but I noticed that throughout the video whenever she said I fell in love with a women her face brightened and she smiled. To me that's beautiful I wish her the best of luck.
i saw exactly the same thing. It's hard to not see.
@T. Zappa typo i hope
I don't agree. And those are MY beliefs.
Landon Fise and at the end of the day her happy is what matters
Ikr? I’m proud of her (not just for that but of course).
She is absolutely stunning, naturally! My goodness! I am also happy she escaped for her life, children, and partner!
I agree. Very beautiful.
Credible, believable, authentic!
You should be proud of the way you handled this interview. Authenticity and honesty will always shine through IF it is there. 100% is was there!
I believe her over anything the "cult" says anyway.
She's good. She conned you in 10 minutes. Scientology is a cult and she is a con.
Watch who you trust. I saw through her instantly.
Or what the government says
Do your own research.
I wish all the elderly victims of SCIENTOLOGY would initiate charges against them.
I make up a T-shirt that says just that but I don't know if I could find a Scientologist to wear it in front of.
Michelle Leclair Thank you for bringing your story to the public. God bless you and your partner.
I believe her. Atleast she's living her life now free.
Hopefully her best life❤️❤️
Leah Remini was spot on. I watched her series on A&E, heartbreaking stories even ending in some tradegy.
Cookie Tee I’m surprised she didn’t get to her first ahahah
Agreed
tragedy
Season 3 has been even more horrifying. Criminals! Should have their tax exempt status removed immediately and arrests and convictions for Miscavidge et al.
Cookie Tee I have not seen this! I’m going to look it up and watch! I’m surprised they haven’t got rid of her!😳😤
Good for her!!! Scientology is nothing but a CULT. It is so disheartening to hear these people's stories, and they are all similar!! The shame, the guilt, the push & the ultimate control that organization - it is NOT a Church - pushes onto people is simply staggering. God bless this woman for being brave enough to leave it! I only wish her the best!!

You are 100% right. Sci is a cult but so is Christianity, LDS, Judaism, Islam, Hindu, Buddism etc. etc. All cults with very minimal differences really. Everyone thinks everyone elses religion is fake but their's is the only real one. Seriously. No religion can prove one scintilla of what it believes and demands of its parishoners. People love their religion but don't lose sight they are all a scam. Funny side note. I was in a Marriot hotel. JW Marriott was a Morman so the hotels have the Book of Morman. They may also have the KJV Bible. I looked inside the Book of Morman this week in the Fairfiled Suites. Some fine Christian wrote "Liers" inside the Book or Morman spelled just that way.
I went to a scientology meeting over 50 years ago, and walked out thinking it was a cult or something like that. Why would you put yourself through this, I would have told them to take a hike.
You should watch Leah Remini documentaries on this. Idk if you have narcissistic or sociopath tendencies but if not, then you should be able to aquire some level of understanding.
That's what almost everyone does. They count on high traffic.
There should be a concerted effort from the general public to have Scientology banned. The IRS giving them a religious identity should be challenged in court.
Scientology is about money and control. It really is that simple!
Daniel Villalobos. Hinduism the best.
Exactly
Religion is about money and control. It really is that simple!
So pretty much most "religions"
@@danielvillalobos4265 Don't blame the religion; blame the corrupt followers. A lot of the time, the religion and the beliefs are fine or is fine on a whole. It's the followers who twist the words to justify things like slavery or abuse or monopolization and dictatorship.
She has to be the most incredibly beautiful woman I've ever seen. It's her attitude and self presentation that illuminates her outward beauty. Her intelligence, honesty, and kindness is absolutely captivating.
She’s beautiful for sure, but not THAT beautiful, really. I agree with the rest of what you say.
@@heavencanwait421 then why comment, just cause you dont see that Michelle sees? So lame
She sure looks great considering what she's been though .
LV the hair sly 😜🤗
She didn’t go to jail bc she’s blond and attractive.
Well a wispy beautiful lesbian ... Needs a few steak dinners, chicken, fish, taters, get a little meat on dem bones.
After watching this, I am flabbergasted by the fact that The Church of Scientology does not pay taxes. This is actually a business. A Corporation. They need to pay taxes.
Proud to be a suppressive person in the eyes of Scientology!
I'm so proud of Michelle! It's hard enough for regular people to leave the psycho Scientology cult but being famous or speaking out publicly on a large scale like this is even more dangerous for them. I wish you all the very best!
I am happy that she left the CULT . Great job Michelle
Back in 83' my roommate was a preacher and went under cover in the church if scientology for a college paper as an expose piece. He exposed it as a cult.
That lady seems so darn sweet! I just wanted to give her a hug, I support her I hope she’s still doing good 😊❤️ screw those scum scammers. Smh
Amusing quote from the *Scientology church* when responding, "...LeClair is peddling fiction...", just laughable. The whole of Scientology is fiction that they are peddling. The founder wrote science fiction and the entire background to the *religion* is like something from a science fiction film.
Lol that’s true
Xenu's gonna getcha for that! 👹
Xenu is a science fictional character, created by certified whackjob, L Ron Hubbard. Lol!
Holly Elsie MUAH classic projection 😂
It's mind boggling how none of them can "clearly" see how insanely relevant & ironic that fact is. He wrote the most # of fiction books in history, still as of today .....and nobody sees that as relevant to the theory of Scientology ??
What are you Doing? How much money are you donating? Working 15 hour days, Being monitored by soup cans🤔 sounds like a cult to me.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 "being monitored by soup cans"
But the tell everyone they are Mmmm Mmmm good.
jackbquick123 😂I'm old enough to get that one.
HA HA HA!
I agree 100% Definitely an occult!!!!
I was sent to a boarding school a huge one started by L Ron Hubbard. I was 8 years old and lived there full time for almost a year. A bunch of strange lost people and a crazy school for accepting an 8 year old.
Knowing first hand how that Church treats excommunicated members I believe her 100%. They probably did report her and caused all the legal problems.
It's a cult, not a church.
It's a long list Meghan?Maybe you should have ended by telling the audience about it.Good for Michelle for clearing that up at the last moment,that the majority of the people affected are on Michelles side.
I got an ad against her in the middle of this video. This “church” is demented
Really what was it about
There is something wrong with this woman
@@kevinerose No, there's something wrong with this cult.
@@kevinerose maybe you don't want to see that there might be something wrong with you...
Be Nice shes a criminal and there IS something wrong about her
This woman is so brave well done lass so proud of you
She hit the nail on the head. When does a liar every admitted to lying? Never.
At 14 yrs old I read Dianetics. When I got to the part of "auditing", sharing all my secrets to a stranger, who would write it down and keep it, I thought, "BLACKMAIL."
With Jesus Christ. He forgives and forgets. I decided to stick with the SON OF GOD!!
Nope. Not worth my time!!😎
That's good. I'm Pagan and we deplore that cult. Forcing abortions treating ppl like slaves. Lies and harassment. The point that you just can't leave is frightening
MaryAnn Williams ... yes Sister, ❤️ Jesus is the way, the truth, and the light...He is my Friend too,
Yeah, telling your secrets to a non-existent person would be the best way to keep secrets safe.
@@maryannwilliams9912 Sure, but it is sad that you feel the need to hold weird beliefs in order to live a happy fulfilling life. But as long as you´re not hurting anyone.
You are SO Courageous & Brave, Michelle!! Respect and Love to you
Wow, the church is soo weak that when somebody is leaving instead of understanding and agree with this they attack people...this is cheap, coward and very low level...
Michelle is a simply beautiful woman who didn't deserve all the backlash. Thank God she is doing well.
She is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.
People in Scientology need to realise they can get professional therapy for less money and less degradation.
I can't wait to buy this book. . I believe her 100%.
You know it's wrong if you can't love who you do... Stand strong!
Wow, she is so pretty!
gorgeouss
Literally my first thought, she is stunning.
@annamal pete you are disgusting
the comment says more about you than anything else
Animal Pete, lesbians love vagina. Not wasted at all.
Every person who pays taxes should write his representives protesting the cult of scientology's tax free status. It is a crime.
Madeleine I agree protest that wicked cult should pay taxes like every body else its not a church .
Michelle, so happy that you had the strength to leave this cult and to lead your own life. It sounds like you had to really conquer a lot of obstacles. Thank you for sharing your story. Let's hope it gives someone else strength.
So you met somebody who knocked you back of your heel goody goody you had it coming to you
This "Church" is so scary how it operates. No doubt in my mind they were behind the initiation of this leagal issue. Whether it was that letter she spoke of or the church started contacting individuals who were wronged after they investigated her and found her illegal activity. She prob deserved some of what she got but its sneaky how it came about. This organization does things and covers their tracks so well. The connections they must have are staggering. Wow.
Their like an intel service.
They take secrets in confessions then uses it against you when you quit? Dude church is free this is wacco!
Okay now that I know who she is, I'm glad that in the end she didn't allow Megan to end on the statement of being a con artist to elderly people in California. I'm glad she cleared that up and said that all her clients came in and supported her, because they believed that she was not guilty of the things being accused of her.
I truly trust this woman and God Bless You!
they dont believe in psichiatry ( "psedoscience") but they believe in E-meter...hahahaha
To be fair: Psychiatry is based on pseudoscience too.
@@ingevonschneider5100 Wow, edgy. Neurology continues to make its impact - which nobody in their right mind would call pseudoscience. How do you think magnet convulsion therapy developed?
@@celticwinter Whoever heals is right.
@@celticwinter Brain science is powerful and cutting edge these days, truly helpful. But psychology, talk therapy is only as effective as the person treating the patient.
@@pennyappellatia uhh yeah and surgery is only as effective as the person treating the patient.
Cannot believe how intelligent people like Michelle & others can get conned so easily by this cult, I just dont get it!
She is a fraudster, why would it surprise you at all?
as she says, she got into it young. many intelligent people are vulnerable and get caught up in cults, Cults are like throwing a frog in cold water, and then slowly heating up the pot. cooked before you know it.
@@Htimez2 What do you not get about "all charges were dropped"? Seems you must put somebody else down to build yourself up. So common, and so pathetic!
m light so true. Indoctrination does not happen overnight. Is is a slow process. Thats how Jehovahs Witnesses work. Wolves in sheep’s clothing.
I’m with you. Makes absolutely no sense at all.. I recall Tom Cruise referring to someone as a SP (suppressive person), as though the whole world should know what that means. They are all in a crazy world of their own. Anyone who gets caught up in this rubbish must be at a very low point in their lives, I can’t fathom any other reason for allowing yourself to be conned like this.
Why hasn’t the government intercede as their is many many testimonies of the hardship, abuse illegalities of this organization?
They have connections
This poor lady! Her integrity was stripped but she was resilient in the long run! Family is key, basic unit oh Gods plan!
I just heard an interview of a Swedish man that left after 50 YEAR in that cult. He specialized on "taking down the enemy" which is ppl that left and then dig up dirt on them.
He was so ashamed and sad and questioned where his life went. it was really heartbreaking to listen to.
I don't understand why Scientology is still up and running. With all of the allegations brought forward, why isn't a special task force bringing charges and arresting people, especially Miscavige. Also, releasing people from Helmet, etc. Like what does it take to dissipate a cult? And who is working at the IRS that they still consider it a viable church?
Michelle LeClair has such perfect voice diction...she should be a newscaster or something.
She definitely comes across as the better presenter here.
She has an amazing look. Impeccable hair and makeup. Respect to her.
I feel very sorry for this woman. She has obviously been framed after all she did for the church, just because she chose reason over their madness. They will do anything to anyone. I hope she is doing well today.
Why did the investigators charge her if she was innocent , I wonder
I’m glad I was born catholic. Priests hears your confession and develop amnesia as soon as you step our of the confessional 😂
Queen of the clouds The catholic church molest children no better than sciencetology and the Pope calls himself God and takes Jesus place thats Blaspheme .also the confessional was created by Nimrods wife semiramis she was a wicked queen she created it to spy on people so she would know the plans of others because people would revile a lot of things there that she would us against them .that's happening to this day that is why nations know other nations plans believe it are not a lot of the times its through the confessionals after Jesus death we don't have to confess to a man any more its dangerous any way ,we only have to get on our hands and knees to pray and confess our sins to Christ Confessing to a priest is putting us back behind the veil .
I once saw through the screen that the priest was reading a magazine while “listening” to my confession. I told my mom and she never made me go again.
@Pr.incorporated IKR....they the CC are FALSE DOCTRINE... totally DAMNABLE
@Pr.incorporated She already has!
@Pr.incorporated it seems like she has COME to Christ, otherwise she wouldn’t care to go to confession and clear her conscience from the sins that she has committed.
such an amazing, strong woman
What an amazingly strong & inspiring woman! She did not bury her head in the sand when things got tough! And then to top it all off, she raises money for victims of a scheme, when she is a victim herself! This kind of strength and courage inspires me, if only if only 25% of humanity were this selfless, the world would be a better place!
Miranda - Really? She's a strong and inspiring woman because she *didn't have the mental fortitude and physical strength to learn the ways of Scientology?* Pfft! To me that says *she is weak and an example of everything that is wrong with modern day entitled womanhood.*
I am a 5th Dan scientologist and I have all my belts and we in Scientology harness our core strength - we call it our chi - and *your anti-Scientology negativity is destabilising my chi baby.*
Scientology is an ancient and spiritual art that leads to enlightenment. I myself was taught by the Grandmaster Chuck Norris. *SHOW RESPECT!*
@@galfleming6770 WOW! I'm glad you found your passion and what ignites you! Everyone should seek to follow their own truth to the farthest extent. But you seem to be displaying signs of an SP
"Suppressive Person" I believe is the terms. But hey, it's only my opinion, I could be wrong.
@@mirandab3963 'Suppressive person'? I have no idea what you mean Miranda. It sounds like new age gobbledegook to me. I simply know that the ways of Scientology are ancient and help a person to harness inner power - you should see me smash boards with my feet and hands.
Gal Fleming Why are you watching this if she is weaker than you? Trolling the interviews of former members who trash your faith sounds weaker to me than what Michele is saying.
@@galfleming6770 and history proved the profanity of all these ancient wisdoms, right…? Lol!
Look at the condition this world is in… for ages already. So much for ancient teachings. 🥹🤓😏
Disgraceful. They should be legally liable for their actions.
When children need love, affection and balanced healthy ttention and care and it's not provided in the early years, most likely they would join this kind of organisations. Thank you that this Lady had a divine awakening. Amazing life, a genuine one, onwards. 🌟
I’m so happy I never stopped and did one of their “ stress test” thingy’s.
Poor woman. I am happy that she was able to turn things around and changed her life. Strange ending to this segment though, I felt as though the show host was interrogating her.. Stay strong.. and never give up.
How's these criminals are still not rottening in jail is beyond me
Michelle is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life stunning and classy
The interviewer almost seemed like she didn't trust this lady and seemed like she low-key tried to make her look bad.
Last BoB so true
I don’t agree- journalists are required to get both sides of the story and acknowledge when serious claims are made with no proof. It’s part of journalistic integrity. But I doubt they’d give her a platform if they didn’t believe her
@@Amy-qe8br Really, going to use the words "journalistic integrity" on a show with Megan Kelly as the so-called journalist? Lol!
Michelle is absolutely right about what Scientology believe about homosexuality. Writer paul haggis stated this too in his interview when his daughter came out.
How tremendously refreshing....What a great interview...
Is no one going to address Address the fact that her business partner was involved in scamming money from people?
So sad that they do this but she is telling the absolute truth.
I've only had a small interaction with Scientology. I agree with her and believe your situation based on my own interactions. I was tactfully reminded "they have a file on me". Good on you Michelle for closing that chapter of your life. I'll buy the book because I know how Scientology will manipulate, set up things to protect themselves and they have people who are well skilled and very smart at this. All governments do not accept it as a religion, the US needs to pay closer attention. There was a time where my even writing this would make me a target.
Imagine scientology having the gall to accuse someone of "peddling fiction" oh the irony.
What a thoroughly lovely, gracious and classy woman!
People!! The phrase "I could care less" is really "I couldn't care less". Think about it. I could care less means that you COULD care less, but said correctly, I couldn't care less means you can't care any less than you already do. Makes sense. This annoys me so much, obviously!!! Ask any one who has a brain.!!!
LOL this is a pet peeve of mine too.
hahahaha same
Yup!
Marilyn Catalano True! Americans use that version, British English uses ‘couldn’t’ . I thought everyone knew that :)
@Marilyn Catalano - True, but I'd go insane if I tried to correct everyone's mistakes. I'll just do one; your last sentence should read, "Ask 'anyone' who has a brain." : )
Megyn Kelly is a good interviewer but if Le Claire was cleared of any wrong doing, she shouldnt have been re demonised by a random comment made from one official. Either she was cleared or not and she says she was cleared. We in media have to be so careful of not defaming and redefaming people. Great the proceeds of Le Claire's book will go to her trust for her clients. And yes, people do make mistakes. Wish her well.
Disappointed Megyn wasn’t really getting it.
It’s because she didn’t really care. You can tell when somebody cares about something or they’re just doing their job as an interviewer. She clocked in, interviewed this woman, then clocked out. she didn’t really care to get to the truth.
She was probably supposed to throw shade due to the cult's powerful influence on the elite media. I presume they have it since they seem to have power over LAPD.
Well done Michelle.. I was very taken back on how cruel Megyn treated you.
Your first clue about Scientology should have been that L. Ron Hubbard gained notoriety as a "Science Fiction" writer..... As such, he knew that people, for the most part, are like sheep.
Never take a partner. I operate alone in my company, sole owner so no risks of things going on that I don't know about. My grandfather in busienss since about 1907 was the same - never take partners as they can drag you into their mire.
What a beautiful woman,absolutely stunning She is doing a wonderful thing, speaking out, unbelievable it's not a church, great show I'm one of your biggest fans, your truely fabalous.
Jeezus she is gorgeous and very smart! Good for her for getting free and finding true love.
It’s not enough to slander Scientology. Words don’t represent people. Actions represent people. These kind of interviews are great for exposure- Michelle has been through a lot with the legal system yet STILL decided to speak on a show despite the stigma. I believe every word she’s saying- but at the same time, Scientologist are responsible in their lives and exceed at their work. It’s hard to combat that when their actions are so good. This cult is dangerous.
She is soooo beautiful, both of them are pretty. I am happy she is free now.🌹
You look like a Barbie doll! :) In a good way. Lol
outward beauty is meaningless...inward beauty is whats important ..its the only thing you can take with you when you die....we live in a very superficial world full of very superficial people...
I think Michelle is the most beautiful I have ever seen she is hypnotizing absolutely gorgeous
I'm confused here. Where is the spirituality in Scientology? It all seems to me to be a business. No spirituality any place. I have never heard any of the folks who are involved with scientology ever speak about anything spiritual. Am I wrong? Or is this just a business disguised into "getting clear"???
I’m proudly suppressive 🙌🏾
I'm also a proud apostate!
“ I’m a proud suppressive “ would make a wonderful slogan on a T-shirt - I’d buy one.
Poor Michelle. I'm so sad for her. She was SO mistreated by scientology, which, btw, IS NOT A CHURCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So what does Scientology have on Tom Cruise that keeps him smiling about it like a mad man ?
Nothing! In reality, they have nothing on him. He's treated like a king within the "church," and he stays for that royal treatment.
It takes a certain kind of person to join a cult and then stay within it. I also agree with the above comment that part of crazy Tom staying is that he is literally treated like the king of the cult.
This woman is so brave
It’s not a church people.
admiration for this lovely woman....... much
It just baffles me that her own mother subjected her to this horror.
Thank you for sharing. No more religion BE FREE!!!!!!!
