Jesse Prince talks about the grieving after L. Ron Hubbard’s death — and the partying

[Jesse Prince at the 2015 Toronto conference]

You’ve seen the excerpt and read our review of Jesse Prince’s book, The Expert Witness. Now it’s Jeffrey Augustine’s turn to get in on the fun, with his podcast interview with Jesse.

Says Jeffrey: “Jesse Prince describes the events in RTC surrounding the death of L. Ron Hubbard. As Hubbard lay dying at his ranch, David Miscavige and Vicki Aznaran at Int Base called the ranch hourly to ask if Hubbard had died. Hubbard left no succession plan so what happened after his death was what Jesse calls a ‘dumpster fire and train wreck.’ RTC put on the super-serious LRH Death event at the Palladium followed by a secret invitation-only party at a home in Hollywood once owned by Liberace. There was great relief that Hubbard was dead, Jesse says, and the party featured lots of premium alcohol and heavy drinking.”
