Bodog Beat

The New York Daily News is reporting the rumor that Tom Cruise has threatened to "kick the shit" out of some unruly Scientologists.

According to Marty Rathbun, who was once a high-ranking Scientologist and one of leader David Miscavige’s most trusted lieutenants, beatings were used in an effort to intimidate uncooperative Scientologists. Apparently, there is a Scientology compound out in Hemet, California nicknamed "The Hole" and Tom Cruise was scheduled to visit there a couple years ago. Three Scientologists were actually being held captive there for insubordination. Marc Yager, Guillaume Leserve and Ray Mithoff were managers who were "too light in their demands for confessions" and refused to carry out beatings.

“Miscavige berated [the managers] for being far too light in their demands for confessions” from the three, Rathbun alleges in his letter, “because they refused to beat [them] … to pulps. Miscavige said that Tom … had vowed to come to the Hole and personally ‘beat the living [bleep]’ out of Yager, Leserve and Mithoff if the managers failed to do so themselves."

Acoording to Rathbun, the three men were subsequently beaten.

Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis says that Rathbun is lying and that the three men all provided sworn affidavits stating that they were never beaten. No word on weather those affidatvits were signed under duress!
