Ep868 - Escapee Exposes Scientology’s Abusive, Twisted, Rehabilitation Program - Claire Headley
Escaping the cult of Scientology required detailed planning and courage, but Claire Headley pulled it off and is now living as a free woman. Born and raised in the cult of Scientology, she made her escape at age 30, after her husband evaded dangerous Scientology patrols with the help of law enforcement. Claire is now a business owner and a passionate advocate for bringing awareness to Scientology and its abusive doctrine and lifestyle. She talks about the “rehabilitation” program Scientologists are often assigned to if they step one toe out of line. Claire shines a light on Scientology theology and lays out the chilling impact growing up in an ironclad cult has on the mind of a developing child.
