TRANSCRIPT:
In truth, Lois is the black sheep of the family. We’re a very large, very close-knit family. And over the last 36 years, Lois has on countless times tried to break up the family.
For at least 36 years I’ve had very little contact with Lois. She’s on and off had contact with the rest of my family. But the majority of my family is all in South Africa. That’s where I have two sisters, a brother, my mother and father were there—nine nieces and nephews. We’re very, very close. We visit each other. I visited them in December. In fact, they themselves have no interest in seeing Lois because they don’t trust her. There’s not the same affection she displays. She doesn’t do things for her nieces and nephews.
Lois has been in the United States. And there’s been very, very little interaction. A couple years here and there, couple visits here and there. No attempt on her part to have any association with me and from her own heart, desperately, in any way, trying to have any communication with me. In fact, I am the one that has, at different times, attempted to help her, attempted to reestablish any kind of communication and say, “Hey, you know, let’s get together.”
It’s like I’ve tried to see her in 2010. Her son was getting married, I offered to come to the wedding. She didn’t want me to come. She didn’t want me to come there. And that’s just two hours away.
Very recently, even as of just a few months ago, she herself sent out letters to all of the family that said she no longer wants to have any communication with any of us.
And this is really by her own decision for not…for removing herself from being associated with us, and creating such upset within our family. And we have a history of such potential trouble that she has tried to create between all of us. It started out in about 1982, 1981, when she was first dismissed from the Church of Scientology.
In the ensuing years, there would be constant strife created between different siblings—my brother creating trouble or having trouble, upset with one of my other sisters. And it was all amongst each other until we finally realized that the person that was actually creating this trouble, creating this enormous amount of upset between all of us, was Lois.
But that’s more current. What actually—before all of that, my mother tried helping Lois many, many times. She would call me—my mother called me many times to tell me, “This is what’s happening.”
She married this man—my sister married this man who was involved in extramarital activities at least on 10 different instances that I have been made aware of. My mother desperately tried to get her to see that this was a very—not a good situation for her and tried to help her out, over and over. She refused to take on any of that help. My mother’s heart was broken. My mother called me one time, all the way from South Africa. She was crying because she was very, very upset about Lois and how she felt like she could not help her.
And I have a sister, Louveigne, who came all the way from South Africa, went to San Diego, visited with Lois’ family. And while there, she was attacked verbally by Lois’ husband, Gary, while he was drunk, several times. He was very, very racist. And this really upset Louveigne. And she called me to try and get some help because she couldn’t under—she didn’t understand what was happening. She was extremely upset. And here we are—she’s a South African who helps many races—she has a church which she helps and services all races that are there in South Africa. And this is her brother-in-law who is telling her how wrong she is for helping other races. And you can imagine how unbelievably upsetting that could be. And that’s just an example of what Lois’ associations are.
One of her sons has sent life-threatening emails to me. That’s not a member of the family. That is—I actually don’t even know her son very well. So I don’t even know how he would be—have any information to threaten me with anything. Threatening me with, okay, he’s “packing heat.” He’s—life-threatening things. And things he said that I would not repeat. And that comes from Lois. There is no one else that he would’ve spoken to or anything. His mother is behind that. She has one son that himself is trying to lead his own life in a good way. Another son that is on drugs, not doing well, and going along that path. And she in no way, in no way, is at all trying to help our family out and be with the family.
