In April 2010, Rinder, who lived in Clearwater, Florida, for more than a year, went to meet his son who also lives in Clearwater but his son refused to see him. Rinder, Rathbun and two others were cited for trespassing by the Clearwater Police. A few days later, according to police reports: “five senior members of its [Scientology’s] California-based international management team – surrounded and screamed at [Rinder] a former Scientology executive. At the time he was approached, Rinder was sitting in his car at a doctor’s office parking lot during a phone interview with BBC journalist John Sweeney. The screaming was so loud, Sweeney was able to record the episode and later aired the recording on The Secrets of Scientology broadcast by the BBC’s Panorama program.
Rinder has said that he was living in The Hole for over two years “when he was suddenly pulled from his prison and sent on [a] mission to London to defend the Church against John Sweeney’s film”, Scientology and Me, in March 2007.
