I could have sworn I saw the thread title say "Verdict Watch" earlier in the week or last week. Am I remembering wrong or was it an error? What is the status of the trial currently?
TIA!

I took it down because they were still doing closing arguments. People get upset when I put verdict watch during closings.

Jury Expected to Get Case Wednesday in Actor Danny Masterson's Rape Retrial - MyNewsLA.com

Following a prosecutor’s rebuttal in closing arguments, jurors are expected to be handed the case Wednesday in the retrial of actor Danny Masterson, who is charged with raping three women at his Hollywood Hills home between 2001 and 2003. Attorneys for both sides began closing arguments on...

Ah ok. Now I can change to verdict watch.

Yeah I didnt like The Ranch, but loved Malcolm in the Middle. His half sister played Tara in The Walking dead. When I found out she was a Scientologist I liked her less.

Are they all scientologists? It makes me feel differently toward a character in a show, too.

AH HA! OK, thanks for clarifying. I'm not going nuts then, well, maybe not about this anyway...

Yes, they are and so do I. So is Lizzy Moss from The Handmaid's Tale. Kind of ironic...

Laura Prepon was also in the church when she was dating Christopher but she has since quit.

"The defendant drugs his victims to be in control. He does this to take away their ability to consent. This is not about consent. This is not about a defendant confusing their signals. When he drugs them, he wants to be in control. You don’t want to have sex? You don’t have a choice. You don’t want to have anal sex? You don’t have a choice. He makes that choice, and he does it over and over and over."

Powerful words!!!

 

[housewife]

The Masterson's were $cientologists, and I believe they managed to rope in Laura Prepon as well. Laura has been very quiet about it lately, and I believe she is trying to distance herself from the cult (good move for her career). I think Ortega said she might not be attending sessions or donating money anymore, but she is trying to evade the "fair game" hostility by not outwardly declaring to the media that she officially left.

All this to say... Laura wouldn't even have the option of doing this if she wasn't a famous celebrity. The cult really tries to sell itself to celebrities because they make the cult look good. If she were further down the ladder of importance, she would experience much less compassion from the cult.

Good thoughts to Laura and anyone else trying to escape the cult.

What time does the jury begin today and will we know that they have started?

Jurors on Friday are expected to re-watch a video that was played during the trial and review a transcript of the interview — their first two requests since they began deliberations.

The Church of Scientology issued a statement late Wednesday criticizing the prosecution’s characterizations of the church’s actions.

“The church has no policy prohibiting or discouraging members from reporting criminal conduct of anyone, Scientologists or not, to law enforcement,” according to the statement. “Quite the opposite, church policy explicitly demands Scientologists abide by all laws of the land. All allegations to the contrary are totally false.”

This is laughable. They go after people who disagree with them.

Leah Remini has her own substack!

I saw the mother of a Jane Doe wrote a letter to David Miscavage, complaining about how her daughter’s rape was handled within the cult. The letter is important documentation that would help her daughter’s case. But mom is not cooperating with the prosecution and so the letter can’t be entered into evidence.

“Fearing exile from Scientology, Jane Doe #1's mom has declined to be cooperative in the rape trial of her daughter. Instead of protecting her daughter, she is siding with the totalitarian cult she’s a member of. As a result, Jane Doe #1’s mom is obstructing justice”

This cult really does destroy families.

I dont like that they are taking this long.

Yeah, sure they do! (Just like they encourage all members with mental health struggles to see a psychiatrist or therapist.)
