Twenty-five years ago, on June 25, 2000, Stacy Moxon Meyer took her own life at Scientology's secretive Gold Base in Gilman Hot Springs, California. She was just 20 years old. In this powerful and emotional conversation, Claire Headley is joined by former high-ranking Scientology executive Tom DeVocht to uncover the truth behind this tragedy and expose the organization's elaborate cover-up.

Claire and Tom take listeners deep inside the oppressive world of Scientology's Sea Organization, where Stacy had been separated from her husband for nearly two years, forced to work at a location so secretive her own spouse wasn't permitted to know where she was. The night before her death, Stacy had desperately sought permission to visit her husband in Los Angeles but was denied – a routine occurrence in an organization that systematically restricted members' movements and personal freedoms.

What followed was a calculated deception. Scientology officials, including Warren McShane (described by David Miscavige himself as "a professional liar"), concocted a story that Stacy had been electrocuted while chasing a squirrel into an electrical vault. Claire and Tom methodically dismantle this narrative using police reports and firsthand knowledge, revealing how statements to law enforcement changed throughout the day as the cover-up was coordinated.

Both hosts share their personal connections to the case – Claire was on the property that day and witnessed the aftermath, while Tom observed David Miscavige's cold reaction to the news while on a yacht trip. Their insider perspectives illuminate how Scientology's leadership, particularly David Miscavige, maintains absolute control over every aspect of the organization, from who could leave the property to how tragedies are hidden from public view.

This episode stands as a memorial to Stacy and a powerful indictment of the conditions that led to her death. Through their testimony, Claire and Tom ensure that Stacy's story won't be forgotten and continue their mission to expose the abuses that persist behind Scientology's walls to this day.

Marc Headley unveils the grueling daily schedule of Scientology's Sea Organization members, from early morning musters to midnight cleaning sessions, and everything in between.

• Sea Org members work approximately 100-120 hours weekly for about $50 ($45 after taxes)
• Basic schedule runs from 9am to midnight daily, with additional all-nighters expected at least once weekly
• Members perform "Chinese School" at musters, reciting Scientology definitions and policies in unison
• Saturday "renovations" require all members to perform construction, maintenance, or landscaping regardless of their regular position
• Food budget for Sea Org members is approximately $1 per person per day
• Sea Org members receive less compensation and time off than prison inmates or factory workers in developing countries
• Members develop creative strategies to catch sleep, including hiding in auditing rooms where disturbance is prohibited
• David Miscavige's inspections create "chaos machines" resulting in additional work, reassignments, or punishments
