Civil Action No. 1 OA28641-2
PLAINTIFFS' MOTION TO COMPEL AGAINST NON-PARTY
Plaintiffs have filed a Motion for Sanctions against N arconon International. In
that motion Plaintiffs explain that Narconon of Georgia (NNGA) produced a document
entitled "Things that Shouldn't Be" on September 13, 2012. Ex. A. This document
references communications between Mary Rieser, Maria Delgado and the local Atlanta
Church of Scientology regarding the operations ofNNGA and Delgado Development.
Accordingly, Plaintiffs served a Subpoena on Deb Danos, who is the Director of
Special Affairs (DSA) for the local Scientology Org., and asked for documents related to
the operations ofNNGA and Delgado Development. Ex. B. Apparently, compliance
with that Subpoena was overseen, in part, by the same law firm that has represented
Narconon International in this case. Ex. C. (email from Rick Moxen to Ga counsel
regarding Subpoena.)
In response to the Subpoena Ms. Danos filed lengthy boilerplate objections and
provided certain redacted documents. Plaintiffs counsel wrote to counsel for Ms. Danos
and asked whether any documents were being withheld pursuant to the various claims of
privilege and if so which specific privileges were being asserted. That request was
ignored. See Ex. D.
Plaintiffs have sent a valid Subpoena in this case. In response, Ms. Danos has
refused to specify whether any documents are being withheld and if so to identify those
documents on a privilege log so that Plaintiffs may determine if the privileges appear to
be properly asserted. Moreover, this is not a situation where a disinterested third party is
being asked to comply with a non-party Subpoena. Compliance here is being
orchestrated, in part, by N arconon International's own lawyers. N arconon International's
lawyers certainly know the rules and should be required to abide by them.
Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court compel Ms. Danos to specifiy which
documents are being withheld pursuant to a claim of privilege and to identify those
documents on a privilege log so that Plaintiffs may determine whether further
involvement of the Court is required. Further, Ms. Danos has produced a redacted
document that does not appear to merit a privilege under Georgia law. Ex. E. Plaintiffs
request that the Court compel Ms. Danos to produce an unredacted copy to the Court en
camera and to specify the particular privilege which is being claimed to justify these
redactions.

14 August 2008
I am sending a box of infonuation that is somewhat of a chronicle about events between
Narconon of Georgia and Delgado Development (a company that has provided
supportive housing for N arconon of Georgia out patient students - all their clients have
come from Narconon). The point of this report is to delineate what has transpired as a
result of management lines into Narconon of Georgia becoming crossed, confusing and
off policy. It is as much a report about me, the ED who allowed it as those who helped to
perpetuate it.
The information is important because date coincident with these occurrences, the student
body was cut in half (it is going up now) and the cash bills became crossed by $100,000
more_
In June of2007 Narconon of Georgia was finally granted the right to deliver the Sauna
program by the state of Georgia. This was after a five year battle with the state. It was
no small feat to get full licensure for all portions ofNarconon delivery as it meant
recognition by the state. Coincident with this has been continuous increased PR with the
Governor's office and the legislative body- of obvious benefit to all LRH delivery
facilities in the area
A month later, the company that had been delivering the Sauoa program before we were
licensed to do it (Puro-Cleanse), knowing that they were on their way out demanded huge
amounts of money before returning our sauna to over to us as well as the keys to where it
was being delivered. This was the place that was licensed by the state for delivery, so we
had to deal with this - and we did. It was damaging financially, but because we were
expanding, I intended simply to make back qnickly.
At the end of August I learned that Don and Maria Delgado were getting a divorce, and
this is really where the chronicle begins relating to this box of papers. The point that is
important about this divorce is that in the process Maria managed to walk off with the
assets of two housing companies- one that had recently closed down (W estCo) and was
in the process ofbeing transferred to someone else (of my choice) and one that was
already in her name that had been originally started by Don. (This company was l/3 the
size ofWestco with ahnost no assets.) I was told about this at the org in a chaplain's
cycle and this was the first of several incidents of bypass by ontside tenuinals regarding
Narconon business. It was apparent that this divorce was wanted by org terminals but I
am sure that there was no understanding about this asset that was being taken and what
the ramifications would be to Narconon survival. I knew and that is why I heavily
protested. I was promised a mediation later, which never occurred. I did not own
WestCo, but had been delegated by the previous owner as the person to determine who
would take it over. This was not really Maria's decision to make, but because it was a
j.

floating asset at the time it looked like something she could take. Part of the deal was
that who ever got this company was sopposed to buy the van that came along with it- at
$20,000 and some furniture which was much cheaper. I had to buy the van, as there was
no living without it and Maria made payments on the furniture. With Maria taking over
this conglomeration, which she had not created, came extra expense forme. I bought the
van, paid all vehicle insurance (which I was not doing before) and paid fur more gas than
I ever bad. It may seem peculiar that I would pay for all these things, but obviously I had
started to go effect of this original bypass, done at a time when Narconon slats were high.
It should be understood that all financing of promotion is done byNarconon for students
that go to housing and Narconou. We do the websites, blogs, press releases, bulk mail,
videos, etc. The Narconon regges sell the program and housing too. We are responsible
to the families and we are a customer of Delgado and so are the students. From our hat as
customer and as representatives to the families, we have always felt that we had the right
to demand good service from the housing.
The divorce was final at the end of September. Our total nmnber of students had
increased steadily since we opened in 2001 and had increased bit more quickly after the
win with the state. At the beginning ofNovember 2007 the number of students started
going down and for the first time since the inception ofNarconon the trend itself went
down for 8 months, though it would remain stable, as though by force on occasion and
would start down again.
Maria had Don Delgado run the housing company for many months while she got
auditing in Mexico. The relationship between Don and Narconon was good. Things
would stabilize and then destabilize, depending on who was running what at the time. A
constant issue seemed to be lack of discipline at housing and a great deal of time at
Narconon daily was spent on what happened at housing the night before. l got so
embroiled in the day-to-day flaps, refimd handlings and the stresses that occur when your
money is dwindling away that l did not get exterior enough to the situation to fully handle
it. I always knew though, that a lot of the chaos had not been on the lines previous to
Delgado takeover. In my stressed-out state 1 was unaware of a way out as it seemed that
any resources to start another housing company were beyond my reach and had been
eaten up by the eclipse. I also had ahnost constant attention on the fact that Delgado did
not have insurance at all. Westco had insured the van, had workman's compand liability.
Delgado had none (I paid all van insurance). Maria was told several times where to buy
insurance and of the necessity of getting it.
In March, Anonymous was heavily on attack in Georgia, both with Narconon and the
Church. In an attempt to ensure that tech was in at Narconon and that legal rudiments
were in at housing and Narconon, so as to proof up against attacks, I called a Board of
Investigation to investigate certain points. For some reason Maria was upset from the
moment the Board was called, even though it was an impartial board to get data I
learned third band that she had put it on org lines and was upset- it appeared she did not
get the point of what we were doing.
Desmond-D-GA-18746
Out tech was found in fue saliDa and course room aod corrected. There were some legal
ruds out at Narconon and we did our best to get them in. Housing was noted as not
having insurance (a point fuat was demanded in an Urgent Directive). General neglect
was found at housing aod Executive Court ofEthics was suggested. The Board of
Investigation took a while (wifu requests for additional time). During this time, nothing
seemed to improve at Delgado. There was additional noise on fue lines - so much so that
the Board concluded that perhaps it was in ao attempt to cover up and sent a
co=unication fuat fuey were going to ask for a non-enturb, iffue noise did not stop.
All of this - the Board of investigation, the findings, evidence and notstions by fue board
are included in this box. In fact, fue incident below happened before fue B ofl findings
were published.
In late March I ordered that Narconon be on high alert during a specific weekend.
Anonymous had been making threats. The org was also on high alert also. Don Delgado
was asked to watch guard all night at the org by Maria. I asked fuat he not do fuis, as he
was the one who would handle situations in fue middle offue night at Delgado, including
taking people to the ER for bumps and scrapes, etc. I thought with our big field that
Narconon could handle its own security and the org theirs. I really had no one else to do
those fuings thai Don was doing at the time. (since resolved)
Don did do security on Saturday night at the org and stayed up all night, sleeping in for
much of Sunday. On Sunday night Maria started to send enturbnlaiing text messages to
me that she was going to fire one of her staff, Allison. I was simply interested in whether
the students were safe or not and kept asking this (this is also part of the documents as I
saved the entire text messages on my blackberry), Maria was mainly interested in
complaining about this girl. In the middle of all this nonsensical text messaging between
us, a student at housing took some heroin, passed out and had to be taken by ambulance
to fue hospital. Don was not at housing as he had been up the night before and Maria was
so busy firing Allison that she did not know that she only bad one staff member on duty
on a night when there should have been more. One of her staff had not even shown up
and fuere were riot enough staff supervising. Don went over to housing and the hospital
and everything turned out OK. The next day, Don and I handled allfue families who had
heard about the incident and hired a security firm.
Maria fired the security firm within a few weeks.
Maria did lower conditions on this incident and fuey seemed pretty thorough.
At some point after this the DSA offue org pul.Jed Maria and I into her office. I had not
been speaking to the DSA about anything between Delgado and Narconon, so she must
have gotten some information from Maria. The topic of the conversation was the fact
that Maria had a right to hire whomever she wanted at her company. I protested this, as
her company was housing Narconon students and I fuought that we should at least be
coordinating on this point. My protest was looked as "acting defensive" and I honestly
feel that the facts were not presented at this conversation. Don would no longer be
Desmond-D-GA-18747
I
I
I
working at Delgado, which in my mind was a huge mistake. The DSA was in agreement
with what Maria wanted and obviously did not have all the data. Though she is very
bright, there is no way that she would have enough information to understand the whole
dynamics and ramifications ofleaving me out of the loop. Obviously, if Maria legally
owned a company, she wonld have certain rights. However, I can see no circumstance
where these rights were supersede service to our students and this is the point of view that
I would be coming from- and all of this would affect viability. Maria had been gone for
much of the year and Don had been running housing with a lot of help from the side from
me. Allison was also doing a great deal. Now Don and Allison were going to be gone
and I was not in agreement with this decision. Things had been tough enough under the
circumstances and now the two best people were going to be gone.
Sometime in April, a badly needed recrui1ment Mission came to the org. The ED ABLE
came along with them, but from another hat (from what I could tell.) I know that first
morning they were there, Maria went and spoke to the Mission and told them that the
only way she could be on staff was to continue to run housing. She told them that she
needed the money also to support her daughters in New York. I do not know what else
she told them. To the degree that she relayed any information that had to do with
Narconon affairs that would affect their a<;tions towards Narconon, to that degree there
was the possibility of wrong information and mixed up command channels. My
command channels go through NNEUS. I do know that the first communication with the
ED ABLE was about the fact that she had heard that the DED of the orgworked at
Narconon. I do not know where this came from, but it was asked a few times, even after
I stated it was not true. This later was straightened out.
The Mission recruited Mark Web (Maria's fiance) to be the temporary PES. This was
good, because we need a PES. However, his coming on staff somehow became
contingent on his working at Delgado. It appeared he was replacing Don. I was not
informed of this until after the fact- though if the Mission understood the circumstances
and the fuct that Narconon had been burdened with dropped housing hats, then I am sure
they would have wanted a discussion about this for the safety of the students. They were
obviously getting their infOrmation from somewhere else. Our public are definitely quite
different than org public and it takes a bit to learn about their general tone level and to
confront them. The purpose ofNarconon and housing seemed to have become to support
org staff. If we had enough resources, I would not mind. However, nnderthe
circumstances and the already heavy Ideal Org debt it was not possible without more
exchange from Delgado. The exchange was simply nat in enough to make the scenario
viable. Maria was making money during a year she barely worked and I was paying for
most of the transportation and having to run over frequently to handle her company.
Maria left town for her training as the OES and gave the hat ofthe housing to Mark.
This decision was based on what was needed at the org, which was fine, but Narconon
was left out of the loop. Mark often would work late at the org when he was supposed to
go to housing. He seemed eager to give good service when he had the time, but he was
not hatted and not often available. A bad situation at housing started to get worse. I was
expected to be helping at the org more with the Mission there, yet I was constantly PTPed

about the events that were occuning at housing. I would frequently go to the org after
work at Narconon and then run by housing late at night. A few times I found liquor and
drug paraphernalia. I called the cops about a drug dealer who was dropping off heroin
and I was on the prowl around several apartments looking for dealers. I felt the students
were in danger and felt pretty alone at handling a dangerous scene. The places were
getting very messy. I would try to get them cleaned up in the limited time I had. (These
are covered in K.Rs.) Finally, we decided atNarconon that it was an overt to sell the
program and the slats started crashing. Tracy and I felt it was not ethical to sell the
product and I did not know where to go to for help. When I asked WISE about
mediation, I was told Maria did not need to be a WISE member because she was org
staff. I was not allowed to get her ethics in because she worked for a higher org.
Also, it was explained to me that Mark was my senior because I was running the OT
committee (by default) and he was the PES. My key hat is that of ED Narconon and
again, I have my command channels. Rather than as a customer, being able to demand
good service from housing which I felt Narconon was totally supporting without much
exchange, I was having to take orders from Mark from another hat. The comm. lines
were getting all mixed up and the student numbers were dwindling to what lhey had been
3 years prior. Narconon was virtually becomjng non-existent and I was bypassed so
much I was becoming non-existent and even if we had wanted to support the Delgado
family, there was no way to do it.
During this time 1 was trying to exphtin to lhe Mission Second about the situation and she
explained to me that I was not allowed to give orders to housing. I know that I did not
explain the scene to her correctly and she obviously had data from somewhere else.
There is no way that anyone would have allowed the circumstances to become what they
were. Stats were crashing and NN Int became aware of the actual situation. Eventually
there was an order to get another housing company to start providing services for our
students. The stats reverted that very week, but the bulk of the students were still at
Delgado.
An example of cross decisions and orders is the case ofBrad Taylor. Brad Taylor had
been sentenced here for a year at Narconon and was working at Delgado. However, there
was suspicion that he had given drugs to students, stolen a credit card and broken
confidentiality. He was already fired from Narconon, but continued to cause trouble on
the lines because he was at Delgado. I told ethics to get him out of the area and told
Mark Web that I did not want him anywhere near our students. I did not say this in
passing but emphatically. By this time, it had been made clear to Mark and Maria that I
had no authority and perhaps that is why I was not listened about Brad Taylor. In fact,
Maria called Brad's father in an attempt to "handle" the upset that I had created by my
edict and Brad was allowed to stay. Even getting him out ofNarconon took some worlc,
but ethics eventually listened to me. However, regrettably, this did not occur for housing.
On Jnne 1 ow 2008 a student was watching a basketball game late in the evening with
Brad in his apartment. They consumed tequila and the student gained access to his cash
which was supposed to be locked in that apartment. A sad thing happened later in tl1e
Desmond-D-GA-18749

I
evenmg. Two days later we drug tested Brad and he was dirty for methadone, PCP,
cocaine and methamphetamine.
Additionally, Brad Taylor was kept in the loop about everything that happened that
evening, by Maria without coordination from me. While Don and I were able to handle
the flap earlier, this went out of control and wound up all over the web. Brad was
constantly on his blackberry, knew how to blog and was angry at me for attempting to
kick him out. It is logical that he would spread the untrue entheta over the web because it
would not be to his advantage for the truth to be known.
At Narconon we have not taken our responsibility in this matter lightly and writing this
report is part of taking full responsibility.
I am reporting these events only so it can be understood that we must apply standard
etlrics and admin to our LRH activities and in the long run, it will be of more benefit to
the ideal org.
After this eveni occurred, the Board of Directors met and detennined a policy that would
set exact gnidelines for any housing company that. Narconon would be affiliated with.
Insurance is required and the new company bas it
The ethics officer was removed from post.
Tech inspections and crams were done on tech staff. I have done frequent tech
inspections, written instructs and FESed the folders of students who did not make it
through the program during this enturbulating time at Narconon. We have been calling
these students - some report they are doing OK and we are working on getting the others
Ill.
We have also worl<:ed very hard to handle entheta on Youtube and have been able to
move some of the en theta down and some off the first page. There is still more work to
do.
We have done onr best to keep the integrity of the command channels in.
As head of the OT committee, I have gotten products and will continue to. However it is
a separate hat. I have helped to get a sauna for the org, gotten out I 0,000 OCAs in the
paper, newspaper ads and have sold books. I have also helped to bring the CF project
further along than it has been in years and worl<:ed on recoveries. It is not enough and we
need more help, but I do wear this hat as I can.
Our goal at Narconon of Georgia is to flourish and prosper and help as many people as
we can as we Jearn from our mistakes against a background ofLRH tech.
At t\le same time, from my bat as OT committee chairman I am dedicated to helping the
Atlanta org go ideal.
