I wanted to share some news with you.

Two years ago, I learned that there was a possibility I could acquire the domain ShellyMiscavige.com.

Shelly Miscavige, of course, is the missing wife of Scientology’s ruthless, violent, and criminal leader David Miscavige. Shelly hasn’t been seen in public in nearly 20 years. She hasn’t been seen by anyone outside of a few handlers in 17 years.

It took me two years, but a few months ago, I was able to acquire the domain.

First, if you’re the praying type, I hope you’ll pray for me.

I have been a target of Scientology for eight years, but this will enrage David Miscavige more than anything else I’ve done.

The fact that I was able to acquire this domain is stunning news, given that Scientology has a team dedicated to overseeing these matters.

Shelly Miscavige photographed with her friend Leah Remini in 2004. This was one of the last times Shelly was seen publicly.

What’s known as the “internet unit” inside the Office of Special Affairs, Scientology’s global intelligence agency, oversees the acquisition and management of domains that are critical to Scientology’s mission.

Whether it’s the protection of websites like davidmiscavige dot org or the many websites they register and own in order to attack anyone who has been declared an enemy, Scientology has perfected the process of domain acquisition and management.

Except for ShellyMiscavige dot com.

There’s no doubt that members of the Sea Org (Scientology’s workforce) who oversee this process for Scientology and the Office of Special Affairs will be punished severely for what is known in Scientology as a “flap” — in this case, a situation that causes a public relations problem for Scientology.

Their punishment will likely include some Sea Org members being sent to the Rehabilitation Project Force (RPF), Scientology’s prison labor camp, where Sea Org members have to work under the hot sun, dressed in black clothes, run everywhere, can’t be spoken to, do hard labor for 20 hours a day, and eat literal slop. Some Sea Org members spend years in the RPF for what would be deemed in the real world as minor infractions. They may not leave the RPF and are chased down and held against their will if they do. Over a decade ago, a federal judge declared the RPF as religious punishment protected under the First Amendment.

For now, this website directs to my 2023 story about how the LAPD and Scientology colluded to undermine Leah Remini’s missing person’s report on Shelly.

If you haven’t read the story, I hope you will.

In the future, ShellyMiscavige.com will be more robust.

Over the years, so many of you have been supportive of my investigative work on Scientology, and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for it.

Reporting on Scientology is not for the faint of heart, and I couldn’t have done it without you, and I can’t continue to do it without you.
