Could you imagine the uncertainty of not knowing where your family member is for over a decade? That's the painful reality for our guest Sterling Tompkins, who joins us in this stirring episode to discuss the puzzling case of Shelly Miscavige, the wife of the Scientology leader, David Miscavige. Shelly, once an ever-present figure, has been conspicuously absent from public view since 2005, stirring a whirlpool of questions and theories. Sterling, Shelly's brother-in-law and nephew, lends a unique perspective to our conversation as we traverse the complex family dynamics and the enigma encircling Shelly's absence.

This isn't just a chat about a disappearance; it's a deep dive into the intricacies of our shared experiences within the Church of Scientology. We reminisce about our respective families, our upbringing within the institution, and the strains on our relationships triggered by David Miscavige's influence. We recall the memories of Shelley and David and how the aftermath of Lisa McPherson's wrongful death in 1995 marked a significant turn in their relationship.

But our chat doesn't end there. We take a moment to reflect on the present and the future - how our past experiences have molded us, and the importance of recognizing those who've managed to do good despite the Church's practices. We open the floor to our audience, inviting you to engage with us in our ongoing conversation about our experiences and the different perspectives they bring. Join us, as we continue to untangle this complex narrative and illuminate the darker corners of our shared history.
