How Scientology Deviously Protected Danny Masterson | Aaron Smith-Levin

it was supposed to be where Danny was supposed to come in and he was supposed to apologize to janeo one and this was being organized because Jane one was like all I want like if he would just apologize and the fact that the scient that the office of special Affairs even attempted to facilitate something like this is proof to anyone in Scientology that the office of special Affairs determined that Danny Masterson committed but you on your Channel Growing Up in Scientology you cover all the current events with this stuff and it's really good coverage by the way because Cuts right through the noise you're on YouTube every day you're going through basically anything that's happening around the cult that is Scientology and one of the one of the earliest stuff I saw you cover was back as this whole Masterson thing was like unfolding I think there was like a mistrial first and they had another trial with all that that was after you were on Danny's show and I had Tony in here to talk about that cuz he was covering as well for his blog but you know the fact that Scientology was so almost like overtly involved in the in the legal defense that they made themselves a part of the case I thought that was a huge miscalculation because it also put them on trial no I agree with you I in some ways the way they behave is like they can't it's like they can't help themselves yeah yeah it's a great way to put it um and one of the reasons I covered that second trial I think in the first trial I was probably just doing videos about whatever it is that Tony was writing on his blog but for the second trial I was in LA for every day of the trial because Scientology is so specific in its experience and I'm talking about like the terminology the language the procedures a former Scientologist just has can just from a conversation with the Janos hear what they went through explaining it the way a Scientologist would explain it and you go oh there's no question they're telling the truth like it's like the reason I covered it the way that I did is because I wasn't undecided on whether Danny did it I knew Danny did it the way Jane what Jane do went through the what Scientology put her through and how it was subjected to these various procedures proved Scientology knew Danny did it there's certain way there's certain things Scientologist or former Scientologist would take away from the information that was shared that people that were never in Scientology would never take away the fact that there was a civil settlement between Danny and Jan do one you go oh people settle things all the time just to put them to rest not in Scientology not in Scientology oh they don't they control you not doing that you're not allowed to sue a Scientologist you can get expelled you can get expelled also there is zero social benefit and I hesit I have to use the right language here because I'm let me know if you know what I'm what if what I'm saying is clear in Scientology there is zero benefit to falsely accusing someone of any type of sexual assault you're not going to get attention you're not going to get headlines you're not going to get sympathy you are going to be subjected to rigorous interrogation it is not or AC accuse people's going to rush there's all survivors in Scientology it's the of that yeah I mean if anything it's what did you do to pull it in what what it there's no sympathy in mean there is no with within the Scientology um social ecosystem there is nothing to gain and everything to lose by accusing any Scientologist much less a celebrity of sexual assaults so first of all you just have the fact like that's not a thing in Scientology to have false ACC it's just not a thing yeah okay then you have the ethics officer jumps in and the sex Checkers jump in and the Auditors jump in and their job is to find out who's lying that is their job and they really want to know so so one um they really do want to know if someone committed sexual assault they're not hold on a they're not going to report it to the police but they really do want to know but why did they let's play their game of [ __ ] up immorality why do they care about something like this which we all agree is horrible but these are the same people who tell you your own son is not your son or your own daughter is not really your daughter so you know what's a little sexual assault then I know there there is a lot of um contradictions and inconsistencies in what they seem to care about and what they seem to not care about like why do they care if anyone's gay if we're not our bodies who cares why is Scientology so homophobic if we're genderless Immortal Spiritual Beings who are only temporarily occupying a body it doesn't even make sense for them to care about whether someone's gay or not but they completely homophobic like but it doesn't make sense but it is that way okay okay so on the on the on the sexual assault stuff it's not that they very singularly care about whether people commit sexual assault it's that they really care about finding out if you're doing bad things they're infatuated with it in fact no matter hold it over you yeah that you're they're going to hold it over you they're gonna you're gonna have to make up the damage you're gonna have to do your lower conditions maybe you'll make a big donation here do a big thing here they really are infatuated with controlling Behavior oh it's all just controlling money and so no matter what they find out you've done they're never going to report it to the authorities but they are going to get to the bottom of it and they are going to make you pay in their own internal way the fact that they even allowed Danny to do a civil Financial siment with Jane do1 is evidence scient ology verified he actually did this the settlement was done just to make jane1 legally to make her go you would believe it and I'm not saying you did I definitely think he did it but you would believe their system to getting to the bottom of finding out if he actually did it because you know it's kind of they're very good at that they are yes it the Emer doesn't the eem meter is full of [ __ ] um Scientology auditing does not give you the gains that they promis it's going to give you but they are very good at getting to the bottom of things because scient olist at least believe that the eer the eer uh reads indicates things that it it's even more aware of you than you are a VI so if I'm the auditor and I'm trying to get to the bottom of something you did and I ask you a question and you're like well I I don't have an answer I'd be like well take a look there yeah and what's that what is that now you know I'm using the e- meter I don't have to sit here and go I'm using the needle of the eer to indicate where I want you to look but you know CU you know how auditing works that's right I'm what what's that what is that what is that what is that right there right there what are you not telling me what is it what what is it and eventually you did did you can I can I be really vulgar in this so I don't want to like oh of course be like did you did you murder a baby did you kill someone did you uh did you did you uh have a hit and run you know did you did you rape a child like it's called the murder routine if you're doing an interrogation you accuse them of things so much worse than what you're hoping they'll admit to that they're like oh Jesus God I didn't do that okay yeah okay so so so yeah so so so she was unconscious and I had sex with her I don't think it was rape though like that's kind of how an auditing session might go it's literally an interrogation and Scientology is very good at it so for should hire them [ __ ] I know for them to even allow Dany to enter into a civil civil settlement with Jane do one means the Scientology authorities David mavage already determined he did this we need to put this to rest now remind me of the timeline here because the accusations came out publicly in I believe 2017 the first trial I want to say was like 2022 the next one was in 2024 was that pretty that was pretty recent right um no the trial was 2023 so he's been in jail for like a year yeah something okay so the accusations though were from the early 2000s right Jan one and Jane do 3 came forward to the Scientology authorities at the time it happened yeah so okay that was what I was going to ask so they came forward at the time meaning these invest these internal investigations had happened a decade and a half before this even came to public light which means this entire time that he's a Scientologist and they're propping him up and all this they know he did this that's right and there was a very specific meeting that um see see I've already had I've had private conversations and then I also sat in on the trial and sometimes I can't remember which information what information came from which in other words uh not everything is allowed to be present presented to the jury on the stand right right here's what I'm talking about there was a meeting that occurred um with Jane do1 Danny Masterson alfredy Johnson who's a public Scientologist um and some people from the office of special Affairs it was almost like a summit it was supposed to be where Danny was supposed to come in and he was supposed to apologize to J one and this was being organized because J one was like all I want if he would just apologize and the fact that the scient that the office of special Affairs even attempted to facilitate something like this is proof to anyone in Scientology that the office of special Affairs determined that Danny Masterson committed this rape and they were just trying to smooth it over so that it didn't go legal and it didn't become a big flap in a big bad bad PR for Scientology and what happened is Danny masteron came into that that meeting and he couldn't just be sincere he was cracking jokes he was laughing he was insulting and it was actually one of the scientologists who called an end to the meeting said that's enough that we're not this is too much get out of here wow and what's crazy about how the whole Danny Masterson thing ended up rolling out and him getting convicted and in prison is that at any step of the way the scientologists involved were willing to settle it internally if it was just handled correctly to their satisfaction and this is what I mean when I say Scientology over and over again turns its own members against it by just refusing to treat people with Humanity thank you for watching the video guys if you haven't already subscribed please smash that subscribe button and check out this clip's full podcast Episode by clicking here or
