In October 1982, Miscavige required Scientology Missions to enter new trademark usage contracts which established stricter policies on the use of Scientology materials. Over the two years following the formation of the RTC, Miscavige and his team replaced most of Scientology’s upper and middle management. A number of those ousted attempted to establish breakaway organizations, such as the Advanced Ability Center led by David Mayo, a former RTC board member who had also been Hubbard’s personal auditor. The Advanced Ability Center closed in 1984, two years after opening.
In 1982, Miscavige set up a new organizational structure to release Hubbard from personal liability and to handle the Scientology founder’s personal wealth through a corporate entity outside of the Scientology organization. He established the Religious Technology Center (RTC), in charge of licensing Scientology’s intellectual property, and Author Services Inc. to manage the proceeds. Miscavige has held the title of Chairman of the Board of the RTC since the organization’s founding. The Church of Spiritual Technology (CST) was created at the same time with an option to repurchase all of RTC’s intellectual property rights. In a 1982 probate case, Ronald DeWolf, Hubbard’s estranged son, accused Miscavige of embezzling from and manipulating his father. Hubbard denied this in a written statement, saying that his business affairs were being well managed by Author Services Inc., of which Miscavige was also Chairman of the Board. In the same document, Hubbard called Miscavige a “trusted associate” and “good friend” who had kept his affairs in good order. A judge ruled the statement was authentic. The case was dismissed on June 27, 1983.

In 1976, on his sixteenth birthday, Miscavige left high school with his father’s permission to move to Clearwater, Florida and joined the Sea Org, a Scientologist religious order established in 1968 by Church founder L. Ron Hubbard. Some of his earliest jobs in the Sea Org included delivering telexes, groundskeeping, food service and taking photographs for Scientology brochures. Miscavige then joined a group of young Scientologists called the Commodore’s Messenger Organization (CMO). The group started with running Hubbard’s errands, but as they grew into adolescence, Hubbard increased their influence.
Similar charges have been reported in previous years. In 1987, the BBC Panorama program Scientology: The Road to Total Freedom? featured an interview with former member Don Larson, who described Miscavige’s physical violence towards a staff member. In a 1995 interview for ITV, Stacy Young, Miscavige’s former secretary and the ex-wife of Hubbard’s former spokesman, Robert Vaughn Young, asserted that Miscavige emotionally tormented staff members on a regular basis. “His viciousness and his cruelty to staff was unlike anything that I had ever experienced in my life,” she said. “He just loved to degrade the staff.” In an incident also witnessed and supported by Amy Scobee, Jeff Hawkins, a former marketing guru for Scientology, claimed to have attended a meeting where Miscavige “jumped up on the conference room table, like with his feet right on the conference room table, launched himself across the table at me—I was standing—battered my face, and then shoved me down on the floor”.

Since Miscavige assumed his leadership role in Scientology, the press has reported accounts alleging illegal and unethical practices by the Church or by Miscavige himself. A 1991 Time magazine cover story on Scientology described Miscavige as “ringleader” of a “hugely profitable global racket that survives by intimidating members and critics in a Mafia-like manner”. Miscavige stated in a 1992 interview on Nightline—his only live televised interview to date—that the publication of the article resulted from a request by Eli Lilly, because of “the damage we had caused to their killer drug Prozac”. According to a 1994 article in Regardies magazine by journalist Patrick J. Kiger, Eli Lilly’s public relations agency Hill & Knowlton, which is owned by the British conglomerate the WPP Group, was pressured by Eli Lilly to drop Scientology as a client just before the Time article was published. After the Time article, Miscavige stated that, “Eli Lilly ordered a reprint of 750,000 copies of Time magazine before it came out.” Scientology filed a suit against Lilly, J. Walter Thompson, Hill & Knowlton and the WPP Group. The case was settled for an undisclosed amount.
