I received the following letter by certified mail today. I called Stephen Jory who agreed that I could post his letter regarding his role in the Dorian matter after I explained that it could add much needed comic relief to ars. The OSA flying circus attempt to frame him and/or Stuart Harris or possibly turn them into pawns against the Scientology reform movement is a continuing OP by OSA.

Text of Jory's letter to Minton
===============================

January 27,1999

Dear Bob:

Most of the information Wallis posted about me on the website was either false or misleading. It is true that he poked his head over the gate and said he wanted to talk to me about Ralph Dorian.

Since it was raining and I was interested in learning more about Ralph Dorian, I invited him in and we talked for quite a while at the kitchen table. He had a fat briefcase that he laid on the table and after a few minutes of conversation it became apparent that it was a fishing expedition for information about me. After seeing what he posted on the website, I regret talking to him. I let him use the bathroom before he left, which was also a mistake. I assume now that my house is bugged and that the C of S now has my voice on video tap [the briefcase]so that they can spy on me and edit the tape to have me saying whatever they want me to say. Illegal, of course, but it wouldn't be the first time the C of S has resorted to illegal actions.

I'm sorry I didn't follow your script more closely regarding being a decoy. I apologize for screwing up and telling Wallis that I had met you. I'm not an actor and I did the best I could. It's no fun being a decoy for Ralph Dorian. I feel very uncomfortable knowing that there are people out there thinking I am Ralph Dorian. I've got better things to do with my life. He doesn't need my cover. The church will never find him anyway. All they'll ever find are the decoys he puts out. Incidentally, Stuart says that if I don't want to be a decoy, he doesn't want to either.

Also, the phone interconnect thing I did for you to provide complete anonymity for your phone calls may have been a mistake. I'm glad you switched to using the phone card. I wish the earlier calls could be erased. The C of S apparently has obtained phone bills [again, illegally] listing calls made to my number. They apparently also have my bills including the times I called Stacy for instructions. There are other calls that they conclude were made to me personally. You told me they would do that but now I'm having second thoughts. I want to say I didn't have anything to do with it. As you know, when a call came in, all I did was confirm that the code matched the code that came in to Stuart by e-mail. I'd never know who was on the other end of the calls. I did hear your voice a couple of times, but for all I know, after I pushed the conference call button it could have been Michael Jordan talking with the King of Egypt or Monica Lewinsky and the Pope. All I was was the connector. It's a drag. It makes me look like I was involved or whatever. I wish you would get another decoy.

I couldn't care less what the Church of Scientology does or how much money its parishioners contribute into its coffers. As I told Wallis, they get what they deserve.

As to Ralph Dorian, I really would like to meet the guy. From what I've read on the website, he sounds like a really fascinating person. When I was in the Church, [that was fifteen years ago], I always had the uncomfortable feeling that Ron Hubbard was not telling the whole truth and that he was actually decieving church members. For instance, a big fuss was made over the difficulty Ron Hubbard had in getting through what they call "The Wall of Fire". Why would he have any difficulty? He wrote the thing.

Anyway, this guy Wallis was a real pain and I told him not to come back.

Sincerely,

Stephen Jory
