Leah Remini on Tom Cruise and Suing the Church of Scientology!

Leah Remini has sued the Church of Scientology, in a wide-ranging lawsuit that includes claims of harassment, stalking and defamation and she could end up calling on Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise to take the stand as a witness.

Remini, who has labeled Tom Cruise as “essentially being second in command” in the church, alleged that she was held at a Scientology facility for 4 months and “psychologically punished” after asking where David Miscavige’s wife, Shelly Miscavige, was at Cruise’s 2006 Italian wedding to his ex-wife Katie Holmes.

The complaint names church chairman David Miscavige and the Religious Technology Center, which allegedly manages policing operations and enforces punitive measures. Remini seeks unspecified damages and a court order requiring the group and any entity it controls or funds to “cease and desist its harassment, defamation, and other unlawful conduct.”

The suit details internal church policies, operations and units — including the Office of Special Affairs, which allegedly handles punitive measures against people and groups critical of the church — that were established by Founder L. Ron Hubbard, according to the complaint. Under the church’s rules, directives originating from Hubbard cannot be changed, the suit says.
