Scientology vehicular assault |
John D. posted the following which had a large duplicate block of text
that I removed. The vehicle driver that was captured was questioned by
police and then released without charges even though the evidence of
his crime was being video taped by the driver himself.

These are late drafts of the documents Keith submitted earlier
today. I will see if the submission form itself is amenable to
scanning and OCR. If it is, I will post it as well.
The documents were submitted as attachments to the "Information", a
sworn statement Keith made before a Justice of the Peace.

In my statement of allegations in support of a criminal charge under
the Criminal Code of Canada, I WILL SAY.
I came to Canada and applied for refugee status here because I was
harassed and threatened with death by a cult in the US.
In the US I was subjected to years of continual harassment,
including large numbers of hang up phone calls (made from
payphones), being followed by private investigators or cult members,
having private investigators stake out my house and locate and
harass my friends, neighbours and relatives. My parent’s house in
another state was picketed, and my daughter was threatened with
kidnapping (I have a transcript and the police in California have
the tape.)
My home has been picketed; my cars have been vandalized. I have
been attacked several times and once was physically forced into fast
moving traffic by two agents of this cult.
This information can be verified through news stories, Internet web
sites and a running log of the harassment in the Internet news group
alt.religion.scientology.
Since arriving in Canada four years ago I have been stalked a number
of times, especially while in the company of Gregg Hagglund, an
Oakville resident who (with his family) has been subjected to
criminal harassment to an extent equal or greater than mine. The
harassment of Mr. Hagglund may be verified through the Toronto police.
To the best of my knowledge the physical harassment, scam phone
calls, and stalking of both Mr. Hagglund and me were suspended about
two and a half years ago. (There may have been low level
surveillance, but not at an obvious level.)
So it was a considerable shock to have open harassment, what this
cult calls "noisy investigation," resume.
Friday morning, April 28, 2005 I was driving to work. Just after
making the turn from Wayne Gretzky to Elgin I noticed a co-worker
walking to work. I stopped to pick up him up in a wide driveway
used by Stelarc. (Just across from the Brantford Police Station.)
This was within a few minutes of 9 am.
A Grand Caravan, license# ATCR 068 (Ontario, photo #7) pulled in
behind my vehicle, closer than would be expected. My co-worker is
aware of the vehicles of company people who stop to pick him up. He
looked back and realized it was not someone he knew. He then asked
me why the driver was blatantly video taping us?
His words came as a dismaying shock. I was both scared and angry
that the harassment was resuming. I had nightmares about it that
night and the following night. I jumped out of my vehicle and
confronted the person. He was alone, driving with his left hand and
holding a video camera with his right. I stood in front of his
minivan. Still holding the camera the driver backed up into the
driveway. I followed not letting the vehicle get more than two feet
away so that if he tried to run me over he would not have much speed.
When his vehicle was at right angles to Elgin he went forward
hitting me. The vehicle had enough speed to bend me at the waist
over the vehicle’s hood, a fact that could be verified from his
video tape which I believe was still running (if it has not been
destroyed). As my co-worker saw the vehicle hit me he went to the
side of the vehicle and thumped on the window, yelling for the
driver to stop.
After failing to push me out of the way with his vehicle, the driver
reversed and backed his vehicle further into Stelarc’s property in a
half circle with me staying within two or three feet in front of his
vehicle. He stopped when he was almost at right angles to Elgin
again, but pointed away from Elgin. He could not have gone much
further without backing into one of the bins Stelarc uses for metal
scrap.
At the point he stopped I called 911 and was connected to the police
station across the street. Unfortunately there were no police
available so the dispatcher called in some cars.
After calling 911, I called my wife (Arel) and gave her a
description of the person in the vehicle. She made notes (Exhibit
A). He continued to tape during most of this time alternating with
calling on a sliver coloured cell phone.
When the police arrived (in two cars, Officers Billone, Oliver, and
third whose name I did not get but is pictured in Photo #8) I told
them that the person I had at bay who had been video taping me was
probably a PI. I also said I had been harassed by PIs and cult
members a number of times before.
I also told the officers that he had hit me with his vehicle and
that I had a witness to the event.
A minute or two after the police drove up, my wife came over from
home with a camera. She photographed the entire scene. Photos 1-3
are of me talking with the officers, 4-6 are her attempts to
photograph the driver through the windows of his vehicle. Photo 7
is the license place of the vehicle. Photos 9-11 are of one of the
officers talking to the driver. The driver’s face is clearly
shown. Photo 12 shows where my vehicle was parked.
One of the officers talked to the driver determined that he was
working for a PI. The police identified the driver, but would not
identify him to me. That is why this information is sworn out
against the unknown person in the vehicle depicted in Photos 9-11
attached.
The police did provide me with the name and phone number of the
company the driver (PI agent) told the police he was an agent for.
It is:
Solutions Security & Investigations
119-2550 Argentia Rd.
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario
L5N 5R1
(905) 819-9058
Executive Director: David L Brewer
When the police gave me this number, I immediately called Mr. Brewer
up from my cell phone and inquired if he did have an agent in
Brantford that morning. (I have had experience with PIs lying about
whom they were working for.) He was at first not cooperative so I
handed my cell phone to the police who talked to him. Apparently
Mr. Brewer verified that the driver of this van was his agent.
After talking to this PI agent, and his boss one of the officers
informed me that they would not arrest the PI agent.
The officer told me that I could lay a private charge with the
Justice of the Peace if I was dissatisfied with their handling of
the situation. The officers would not tell me if I was the target
of this PI agent.
Photo 17 shows the PI agent leaving the area.
Half an hour or so later I called the PI’s agency and talked again
to Mr. Brewer. Mr. Brewer would not admit or deny that I was the
target of his agent’s blatant aggressive behavior citing client
confidentiality. He implied his agent’s behavior might have been
because my car was similar to someone else they were investigating.
He did say he knew whom he was working for and denied that he was
working for a "religion." If he was working for Scientology, their
lawyers or one of their many fronts this is a true statement. They
have been denied religious charity status by Revenue Canada and are
a criminally convicted corporation rather than a religion in Canada
Ruling of the Supreme Court in Canada in Hill v. Church of
Scientology, File no. 24216, (Paragraph) 194
"In summary, every aspect of this case demonstrates the very real
and persistent malice of Scientology."
Mr. Brewer also threatened to sue me if I posted any libel about his
firm. I told him I would email him [DL_Brewer (at) hotmail.com] a
draft of what I was going to post about my encounter with his agent
and did. (Attached posting, Exhibit B)
Later that morning Mr. Hagglund also tried to talk to Mr. Brewer
about the legal pitfalls of working for the cult. Mr. Brewer was
not willing to talk to him.
I have every reason to believe that this was a blatant attempt to
harass me and scare a co-worker. It is consistent with a
long-standing pattern of criminal harassment for the following reasons:
1. Openly taping someone is not ordinary PI behavior. It is
however part of the "noisy investigation" (intimidation) policy of
this cult. I know other PIs and it is their professional opinion
that this was not an ordinary investigation.
2. The minivan was rented from Enterprise Rent a Car. (See Exhibit
C attached Ontario "Used Vehicle Information Package." The PIs
working for this cult have frequently used rental cars for stalking.
(Exhibit D) Canada’s privacy laws make it impossible for a citizen
to get information about the person who rented this minivan.
If I had not involved the police, I could not have found who was
behind this harassment even with the license number. One wonders
why the agency would go to the expense and aggravation of renting a
vehicle if the intent was not to commit an unlawful act.
3. That very day, April 28, 2005, Gregg Hagglund reported his trash
had been taken. Several years ago this was done on an almost weekly
schedule, a few times Mr. Hagglund even saw cult members or PIs
taking his trash. This time he found his trash was gone but not any
others on his side of the street.
4. Other people on the cult’s hate list (Exhibit E) have reported a
recent upsurge in PI activity. (Three people on this list are
Canadians, Gerry Armstrong, an ex member who lives in BC, Kady
O’Malley a journalist covering Parliament in Ottawa, and Dr. Steven
Kent, a professor at the University of Alberta.)
The charges:
Assault
Accused #1 did unlawfully commit an assault upon Keith Henson,
contrary to the provisions of Section 267(b) of the Criminal Code of
Canada. (Alternately Section 267(a) if the vehicle is considered a
weapon.)
Criminal Harassment
Accused #1, #2, and #3 did, without lawful authority, knowing or
being reckless that Keith Henson was harassed, did engage in
threatening conduct directed at Keith Henson, thereby causing Keith
Henson reasonably, in all circumstances, to fear for his safety or
anyone known to him, contrary to the provisions of Section 264(2)(d)
or other applicable sections of Section 264.
Conspiracy to commit Criminal Harassment
Accused #1, #2, and #3 did unlawfully conspire to commit criminal
harassment against Keith Henson contrary to the provisions of
Sections 465(1)(c) or 465(1)(d) or 465(4) depending on circumstances.
The police made the argument that harassment has to be repeated.
This is not so, in some cases one hostile act is enough. In
addition, this is part of a long-standing harassment campaign.
There is also no doubt that the law applies in this case. From A
REVIEW OF SECTION 264 (CRIMINAL HARASSMENT) OF THE CRIMINAL CODE OF
CANADA . . . (1996)
"The criminal harassment provisions of the Criminal Code of Canada
came into force on August 1, 1993. The main intention of the new
section 264 was to help protect women in Canada from physical
attacks and harassment. . . . The legislation is also available as a
potential tool against . . . harassment practiced by some members of
politically motivated groups , or harassment related to business or
personal matters not linked to violence against women."
There is no doubt scientology is a "politically motivated group."
"Somebody some day will say 'this is illegal'. By then be sure the
orgs say what is legal or not."
-- L. Ron Hubbard
HCOPL 4 January 1966
(HCOPL--Hubbard Communications Office Policy Letter)
" . . . without a public incredulity we never would have gotten as
far as we have. And now it's too late to be stopped."
(Hubbard, "Scientology Review", HCO Bulletin of 29 July 1963)
Hubbard was wrong: the cult had perhaps 2000 members in Ontario
before they were convicted in Ontario for criminal breach of trust.
"On June 25, 1992, the Church of Scientology of Toronto and
Jacqueline Matz were each convicted of two counts of breach of trust
contrary to s. 111 of the Criminal Code, R.S.C. 1970, c. C-34 (now
R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46 , s. 122) following a trial before Southey J.
and a jury. The Church of Scientology of Toronto was fined $250,000
and Jacqueline Matz was fined $5,000. The Church of Scientology of
Toronto appeals both the convictions and the sentence. Jacqueline
Matz appeals the conviction only."
Citation: R. v. Church of Scientology of Toronto, 1996 CanLII 1650
(ON C.A.)
Date: 1996-08-21
Docket: c13207;C13047
Both sentence and conviction were upheld. Most of their locations
were closed and today membership is not more than 200. But the cult
is still an awful nuisance with far more influence on government
than is safe for a democracy.
There is a small possibility this bizarre business might not have
been orchestrated by the cult or aimed at me. In the case that
investigation demonstrates this as fact, I will apologize to all
concerned, including this court.
Postscript Tuesday morning
Yesterday a Toronto police officer (who has investigated this cult’s
harassment for several years) tried to find Mr. Brewer. "Solutions
Security & Investigations" turned out to be in a "rent an office"
place. Mr. Brewer was not there, and the office people said he
would not be in this week.
