{"product_id":"human-trafficking-by-the-us-steven-lee-douglas-9781500506841","title":"Human Trafficking by the US Church of Scientology: From Russia to America \/ From Freedom to Slavery","description":"In the late 1990's, the Flagship US Headquarters of the US Church of Scientology had a problem. How to find menial laborers from within the Church's Community. Where could they find Scientologists willing to be gardeners, maintenance workers, laundry and housekeeping staff for their hotel. Tom Cruise and his fellow Scientologists of the US Church were not going to do it. They could not hire outside laborers since their code of silence would become exposed. So, where could they find Scientologists to do the menial labor?The US Government repeatedly approved the issuance of R1 religious worker visas (or R2 for children under 21 and spouses related to the R1 recipients) to unknowing Russian Scientologists in the mid to late 1990's. In the case of the Russians who went to the Church of Scientology, the US Government made possible a transnational crime that would inevitably take place each time one of their unknowing victims would arrive at the Church of Scientology's Flagship in Clearwater, Florida USA. This book includes interviews with two Russian Scientologists who were convinced to leave their local churches and travel to the world headquarters of Scientology where they would receive training allowing them to return to their home churches as successful Scientologists. What they found was nothing short of menial labor. All promises were broken.Also included in this book are interview with government, media and trafficking shelters in Russia with additional sad and horrific stories of other Russian trafficking victims. One interview with an anonymous Russian police Captain explores how young women are trafficked from Russia and why it remains difficult to impossible to find missing victims once they have been trafficked.CreateSpace eStore: https: \/\/www.createspace.com\/490202\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Lee Douglas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1500506842\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781500506841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.21d","brand":"Steven Lee Douglas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44715561025791,"sku":"9781500506841","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b337fbba-cfa6-4648-9c35-634e7092e4b1.jpg?v=1705672722","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/human-trafficking-by-the-us-steven-lee-douglas-9781500506841","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
