This is certainly a day we’ve been waiting for here at the Underground Bunker. Luis and Rocio Garcia filed their federal fraud lawsuit against the Church of Scientology back in January 2013, alleging that they had been lied to in order to get them to donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to Scientology’s building projects […]

We told you last week that Scientology pulled a bit of a fast one in the Garcia federal fraud lawsuit, submitting a substantial “bench memorandum” with just days to go before tomorrow’s big evidentiary hearing.
There’s so much at stake in this hearing, which will decide if Scientology can […]
We have another uncut interview leaked for the first time from Channel 4’s excellent 1997 documentary, Secret Lives — L. Ron Hubbard, this time with Hubbard’s former medical officer, Jim Dincalci.
The documentary is one of the better ones made about Scientology, and it contains numerous short clips of people who knew Hubbard. A source is […]
It’s that time of the week again, when we share with you some of the Scientology communications that our great tipsters have sent us.
We also have a couple of emails that some members received. And we have a new video from Chris Shelton, as he looks forward to Alex Gibney’s documentary airing next month on […]
Where’s Clark?
On Monday, we told you about the latest adventures of our friend Mark Ebner, who once again stumbled across some things Scientology had abandoned.

Judge James D. Whittemore
Federal Tampa district Judge James D. Whittemore has been preparing in a very methodical way ahead of a February 18 evidentiary hearing that could have a huge impact on the Church of Scientology.
He’s already held one live hearing on this important preliminary matter, and in anticipation of next week’s event, […]
By now you’ve probably seen Danny Masterson’s interview with Paper magazine, which was posted online Wednesday evening. The piece is getting a lot of attention because Scientology’s celebrities are usually very reluctant to talk publicly about the secretive organization.
The last time an actor said so much about his involvement in Scientology, and as aggressively, it […]
During our time at the Village Voice one of our readers’ favorite features were the “OT Phenomena” we dug out of old copies of Advance! magazine.
Jefferson Hawkins, who at one time edited the magazine, told us that “OT Phenomena” was the most popular feature in the publication. It featured the tantalizing tales of superhuman abilities […]
On Wednesday, we told you about the startling admission by Mike Rinder in his January 6 sworn deposition that Leah Remini, who defected from Scientology in 2013, has been in talks to join a federal fraud lawsuit against the church.
Now, we’re going to post the entire deposition for you to examine, and we think you’ll […]
Clark Carr, where’d you go?
One of our better sources said it to us several months ago, and it was so startling, we really weren’t sure what to make of it.
“Narconon International is being dismantled,” he told us.
Hang on. Narconon International, the Scientology umbrella group that oversees and licenses all Narconon rehab centers around […]
