Blame The Scientologists

Filed under: Tom Cruise

tommmmm__opt.jpg

David Hans Schmidt, the infamous peddler of celebrity sex tapes, was found dead at his apartment in Phoenix on Friday - the victim of an apparent suicide.

The Arizona man recently attempted to extort $1 million from Tom Cruise for the Scientologist's stolen wedding photos.

We hope the cops look into this "suicide."

Just saying!

    Scientology is really really scary :( i feel bad for people caught up in, there's so many horror stories. ya, the guy was kind of a douche for the celebrity sex tape thing, but i wouldn't be at all shocked at all if they had something to do with it, which would be pretty scary and shitty.

  43. Sara G. says – reply to this


    43

    scientologists are evil, greedy, sick, delusional, murderous psychotics.

    just for this, i hope they find that tom/katie tape. i also hope detectives dig far enough into this mystery to finger those crazy pieces of shit without getting offed themselves.

    As to the subject…………..If it was murder, please don't have the case heard in california, I'm just sayin, they don't have great jury pool record

  55. They always kill people,, it's what they do! says – reply to this


    55

    These Scientologist are nuts,, they are pretty much taken over Clearwater Florida, and there are hundreds of dead scientologist out there ,, and their families all think their religioin killed them,, plus,, when they die,, they are broke,
    I'm sure this guy that died was a scum,, but the Scientologist should not of killed him,, I'm sure they did,, they always make it look accidental or like a suicide,,
    Good Luck to his family,,,

  56. sarita says – reply to this


    56

    this just happened to artist jeremy blake and his girlfriend– they both died and were saying they were literally being followed by scientologists. they used to be friends with beck, a scientologist…..i hope this case is thoroughly investigated.

    How does someone extort money from Tom Cruise when these supposed photos of Tom Cruise are of his "wedding"? Either he buys them or he doesn`t buy them, where does this "extortion" come in? To me it is beyond fishy…COuld it be this guy caught Tom in some GAY situation?

    So now on top of requesting a boycott of Britney's music your suggesting that Scientologist's are now murderers? Someones getting a little big headed. It's about time that you choke on a sandwich and die.

  62. Ange says – reply to this


    62

    Jeremy Blake and Theresa Duncan believed that they were being followed and harassed by Scientologists up to the time of their deaths. Blake also included his allegations of harassment by Scientologists and others in a 27-page "chronicle" he prepared for a lawsuit he planned to file. - Wikipedia….LOOK AT IT!

    THIS ONE WAS NO SUICIDE EITHER!

  63. lefty says – reply to this


    63

    Suicide or scientolgiscide?

  64. Ange says – reply to this


    64

    I think #64 is a scientologist!

  65. Toadygrrl says – reply to this


    65

    Well, I tell ya –I know Perez joking and all that about the guys "suicide" but seriously, over here on the east coast a man washed up on one of our county beaches recently, he'd been despondent over his NY girlfriend recent suicide and police said there had been a diary left saying she was being harassed and hounded by scientologists…..so it IS an interesting theory, also do you know there is a FAIR GAME policy in the cult that says any attacks on scientology as a whole or scientologists in particular, can be dealt with with this FAIR GAME policy which states in a nutshell that any thing including violence, harassment, reputation destruction, false litigation, and KILLING is okay. Check it out on the web, there's lots of these documents out there, plus I have seen this Hubbard Communication Office policy letter with my own eyes when I was doing courses out at CCINT in Los Angeles. (Celebrity Centre). Very interesting.

  66. Freaky says – reply to this


    66

    This is freaky! There is a large number of scientologist and scientology critics that "commit sucide". (i.e.Those two artists in NYC!! , plus so many others) Anyways this is freaky. I really hope the cops look deeper into this. They cant get away with intimedating everyone and killing off their enemies. They even have their own "police". I wish I were joking. That being said, I doubt Tom is even aware it was done by his buddies, he is so fucking beyond lost in their lies. He hit crazy a looong time ago.

    Scientologists did it. No wonder Katie is scared and sad. She is afraid they will hurt her if she gets out of Tom's control.

  68. SUICIDE - MY ASS!!!! says – reply to this


    68

    The Scientologists DEFINITELY got to him!
    Scientology is an underhanded group of thugs and extortionists who should ALL be locked up.
    They had better look into this suposed 'Suicide' and put the blame where it REALLY belongs!!!
    Tom Cruise is a fuckin tool…

  69. Sarah says – reply to this


    69

    I AM TELLING YOU HE WAS KILLED! There is no way…he is in possesios as of right now.. a sex tape of eva longoria. And a sex tape of screech from saved by the bell. They had the family take care of his ass.

    The Scientologists are just as bad as the Mormons. They hate women, want them to suffer horribly during childbirth and have no control over their lives. Also, what happened to Tom's nose?

  72. Anon. says – reply to this


    72

    Katie is scared. She's afraid she'll end up "committing suicide" too…you know how those new moms can suffer from "depression"…he already has a built in reason the media would buy and maybe Katie knows that…she'll never get to leave him with that baby.

    Bryan E. Smith (July 16, 1957 – September 21, 2000) was the driver of the vehicle which hit the author Stephen King on June 19, 1999. He was brought before a grand jury and was indicted on two counts: driving to endanger and aggravated assault. He said that he was distracted by his dog, which was loose in the van. [1] [2] He pleaded guilty to driving to endanger, the lesser charge, was sentenced to six months' imprisonment (sentence suspended), and had his driver's license suspended for a year (he had nearly a dozen previous infractions on record). In an interview with Dateline NBC on November 1st, 1999, Stephen King had commented that "There isn't really anything that he's got that I want except his license. Unfortunately that's a paper that's very hard to get away from anybody in any state."

    On September 21, 2000, Smith was discovered dead in his trailer in Brownfield, Maine. Coincidentally, September 21 is also Stephen King's birthday (he turned 53 that day). His cause of death was listed as an accidental overdose of the painkiller fentanyl, according to toxicology reports. Smith had suffered from a back injury and was prescribed the painkiller not long before his death.

    Stephen King publicly responded, stating, "I was very sorry to hear of the passing of Bryan Smith. The death of a 43-year-old man can only be termed untimely." [3].

    This would not be the first person the degenerates at Scientology murdered. That have a proven track record or threats, intimidation and mysterious deaths surround their cult. That is the main reason Germany calls them a cult! Let these pig's rot in the hell they have created. Better yet, when Xenu comes back maybe he will be soooooo pissed he will obliterated these imbeciles from the face of the earth. ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

    Now, I'm really worried for Katie, guys. How can you explain a young Hollywood actress deliberately dressing like an old lady in the span of 2 years. Her face is always pale, and she seems so "little" compared to what she looked like before Scientology. She used to always have rosy cheeks and actually looked happy. Now she has this tolerant smile (no teeth showing) whenever you see her. This doesn't strike me as a woman in control of her own life. Seems as though she has lost her free-will. Scary…

    82

    I`ve heard rumors from sources that that Tom Cruise is involved with the mafia,..now, that said, he is in a cult and we all know what cults are capable of if they are being threatened..and seeing how Tom is a pro-Scientolog.. well, put 2 and 2 togethter and you`ve got a hired killing on your hands..

    Re: dean – he had the Cory bernstein sex tape, though neither ever mentioned it again and it never was made public. Bernstein should be worried along with the rest of the characters whos tapes he purportedly had.

  96. kamp says – reply to this


    96

    THANK YOU FOR HAVING THE GUTS TO SUGGEST THAT IT WASN'T SUICIDE!!! If this guy committed suicide it was because of the intensity of the threats that were waged upon him by the scientologits. But I don't believe it was suicide. I believe he was murdered. Scientology is not just some lame punchline. It's a very dangerous, organized crime cult. There's nothing funny about it at all. It's time for our government to wage war on them. Enough is enough.

    no way did this guy commit suicide. plus if he has sex tapes of eva longoria and cory bernstein along with others, with the Tom C fiasco happenings, it needs to be investigated, he wouldn't have done it he was too narccisistic.
