Background on Jolyon West
- First heard about Scientology during the Dianetics Foundation days (early 1950s), thought it was stupid, and said so
- Pwned an elephant in the 1960s by shooting it with a tranquilizer dart full of LSD. srsly
- Published a journal article about it. Great times, the 60s.
- Did
a bunch of other research
- Kept badmouthing Scientology, was labeled an enemy.
- Dennis Clark, former CCHR head and tough guy who appears in some XenuTV videos, "found" the article about the elephant by looking it up at the fucking library. West's reaction was: "Yeah that was me, LOL."
- Assisted Wollersheim's court case as an expert on cult techniques and Scientology in particular.
- As part of the fair game operations, Scientologists such as Steven Fishman were told to call him in the middle of the night to threaten and scream at him. But you should never do that to a Scientology org staff, because that would be cyber-terrorism.
