DECLARATION OF MARY TABAYOYON
I, Mary Tabayoyon, declare as follows:
1. I became a Scientologist in 1967. I became a member of the
elite Sea Organization (Sea Org) in 1971. I remained in the Sea Org
until I left Scientology in December 1992.
2. One of my first positions in the Sea Org was receptionist under
Heber Jentzsch, at the Celebrity Center in Los Angeles, run by Yvonne
Gilliam Jentzsch.
3. In 1972, I was transferred to the Flagship Apollo. While on the
ship, I was on the personal staff of Mary Sue and L. Ron Hubbard in the
household Unit ("HU").
4. In March of 1973 my husband Andre, and I were transferred to the
Advanced Organization Los Angeles (AOLA). We were transferred because I
was pregnant and children were not allowed on the ship. I spent
approximately 10 years at AOLA.
5. In July of 73, our son Casavius was born. He has been in
Scientology and he was ever since birth. He now has disconnected from
us due to the fact that we left the Sea Org and are no longer in
agreement with several of the tenets of the Sea Org.
6. In late 1984, I was transferred to the highly confidential
location in Hemet, California, commonly referred to as "UPLINES." Sea
Org members who work at this location call it, "the Base". The Sea Org
units that were at the base were Golden Era Productions ("Gold". Golden
Era Productions produces all of the Scientology films tapes, E-meters,
music and promotions), Commodores Messengers Organization International
(CMOI), Watch Dog Committee (WDC), Religious Technology Center (RTC),
and Commodores Messenger Org Golden Era Productions (CMO GOLD). I spent
the last eight years of my tenure in the Sea Org at this base in Hemet.
BEGINNING IN 1986, MEMBERS OF THE SEA ORG WERE FORBIDDEN TO HAVE
ANY MORE CHILDREN IF THEY WERE TO STAY ON POST AND THE HUBBARD
TECHNOLOGY WAS APPLIED TO COERCIVELY PERSUADE US TO HAVE ABORTIONS SO
THAT WE COULD REMAIN ON POST.
7. On September 28, 1986, Gillaume Leserve, the Executive Director
International ("ED Int"), put out an order binding on all Sea Org
members. Within the Sea Org, these binding orders were called Flag
orders. The September 28, 1986 Flag Order No. 3905 forbade Sea Org
members from having any more new children. The reason given by ED Int.
was that the Sea Org simply did not have the time, money and resources
to raise children properly. In the event Sea Org members elected to
disobey this Flag Order, they would be exiled to a non Sea Org
Scientology organization of the Class IV level until the Child reached 6
years of age. Once the unauthorized child achieved 6 years of age, the
parents could return to the Sea Org.
8. On April 3, 1991, an addition to this Flag Order was issued.
Part of that supplement provided that anyone who did get pregnant would
be sent to a non-expanding Class IV Org. The Commanding Officer of
CMOI, Marc Yager, endorsed application of this supplement to all crew at
the base and added to it. It stressed that Sea Org members were the top
echelon of the Sea Org. As such Yager admonished us that we had the
