Blown for Good - Marc Morgan Headley [105]
Then there were the internal staff issues. The guy that designed the electrical distribution for the building had placed the high voltage panels for the entire building directly behind Dave’s personal shower in his office. Dave was not too keen on that. The electrician was sent to the Rehabilitation Project Force somewhere and the electrical plan and existing wiring had to be redone.
Then there was the Gold engineer that was making sure that the water pipes in the building were properly tested after being installed. I will not get into details, but I can guarantee you he brought a whole new meaning to laying pipe! After this was discovered, he was shipped off to some faraway place and never seen again.
When the furniture for the building was being done, a carpenter from PAC, the Sea Org base in Los Angeles, was brought to the Int Base. He was a master in his own right and was brought there to make the main desk for COB’s office. After months of working on this desk it was shown to COB. Dave said that it was the most heinous piece of crap he had ever seen. Shorty after this occurred, the carpenter was killed in a freak motorcycle accident on the highway while leaving the base to go home for the night. Even though he had been riding motorcycles all his life, he crashed on the road that leaves the base and was pronounced dead on the scene.
This also just happened to be around the same time that a girl was killed on the highway by a piece of heavy equipment that was crossing the road. It was late at night and it was dark and the girl drove her car directly into the bucket on the front of the loader and she was instantly decapitated. Her mother was following behind in another car. When the mother got out of her car to check on the daughter she screamed out in horror. It happened right next to the road at the Castle and I could hear the mother screaming for what seemed to be at least an hour.
Then there was the girl that was electrocuted to death in a power transformer vault at the Int Base near Building 50. She had been trying to go see her parents and husband in LA and was told she could not go and that she was PTS. One Sunday morning, she went into a power vault and was instantly killed by electrocution and the power to the entire Int Base went out. The Port Captain at the time, Ken Hoden, told the police investigating the accident that she was going into the vault to save a squirrel. There was quite a bit of controversy over this whole thing at the base. The girl Stacey was not stupid and no one went into power vaults on the base. I worked there for 15 years, was on the electrical team for years and never went in to one ever. Stacey had only been at the Int Base for a short while.
It was also odd that shortly after her death, the guy who told her she was PTS was sent to the Rehabilitation Project Force. And that Ken Hoden, the security guard that responded to the outage and the person who supposedly saw the suicide note Stacey left all disappeared from the base for undisclosed reasons.
Three people died in three weeks at the base. Many more went to the RPF or were offloaded and declared during the construction of Building 50. So it was odd that after all that, it was not filled with people and only Dave Miscavige and his personal staff would occupy it.
Anyway, we would often be called up to meetings at Building 50 and Dave would lecture us and lay out the entire future production and international event releases for the next ten years.
The only difference between today’s meeting and yesterday’s meeting, or last week’s meeting or last month’s meeting, was that Dave had figured out a few more ways how we had all screwed something up that was already released years prior and now he was explaining to us how, once again, he was going to have to figure out a solution or work around our latest screw ups and swoop down and save the day in the end, as always.
Somehow, even
