THOSE WHO OPPOSE SCIENTOLOGY
For more than a decade the FDA would remain obsessed with the E-Meter. With other government agencies, it would repeatedly infiltrate the Church with agents and informants, employ bugging devices, place a “cover” on Church mail, and obtain confidential Church bank account information.
It went nowhere. In 1969, the Washington, DC, Federal Appeals Court ruled the Church a bona fide religion protected by the US Constitution, and that the E-Meter had not been improperly labeled or used.
Still, it was not until 1973 that a reluctant FDA finally returned those stolen Church materials: 5,000 books, 2,900 booklets, and the E-Meters.
