It might be the straw that breaks the camel's toe.

Their only conceivable defence is the Chief Engineer's line, namely that Hubbard didn't say asbestos was dangerous so they didn't worry about it. That line won't wash in a criminal prosecution or civil suit, but it might work as a PR defence, although swearing blind that you're unbelievably stupid isn't the best of PR options.

Hopefully it'll be there last year and not just a bad one. For Sure! It's all comin' out now And so fast!! There's somthing in the air.. All the newbies here all of a sudden, all the bad PR, the real truth is a hairs whisker away.. bring it on
I was reading that if asbestos is enclosed it's OK and a check a few years ago said it was OK. It's probably the renovations that brought this about. I'm doing some more research.
Contained asbestos is probably fine in a building that doesn't constantly move.
But what about a ship that is in constant motion? What about times of heavy seas? Don't you think there would be a certain danger in those particles shaking loose?
How about the exposure to asbestos of those who initially worked on remodeling of Freewinds. Asbestos was floating all over the place at that time and nothing was done about it even when the situation was brought to attention. When non-Scientologist workers objected to it, Scientologist workers were brought in by the management because they could be controlled.

Bullshit and speaking as a Scientologist, this is totally avoidable!BUSTED!
This may be a connection between Co$ upper level grads & high rates of cancer.
Oh God yes!
I am looking at how they are going to cover this up - or try to. I really don't think they can this time.
Excellent call! Thank you for that look inside their operations.
This shows that even when they are officially shut down for asbestos, they STILL aren't informing the public about it!
I looked around on Google and found Lawrence Woodcraft's affidavit, where this situation was first officially exposed. That affidavit was dated January of 2001.
So for more than 7 years, the CofS has been covering this up and continuing operations, exposing their public to deadly blue asbestos, while charging them heavily and telling them that they are sending them on a trip to health and sanity.
I so hope that law enforcement becomes involved on this.
Please, please, please do something about these lying frauds!
Especially if lots of picket signs say "Google 'Freewinds Asbestos'".

Message boards are abuzz with the news that the Freewinds, the church's massive cruise ship and floating top secret training compound, has been sealed by Caribbean authorities....
