[Screen: Scientology denies that Serge Gil performed student auditing with any adults.
Scientology also denies having minors audit adults about subjects of a graphic sexual nature.
After leaving Scientology Serge Gil filed an official statement with the Clearwater Police Department about his experiences.
“The Church is aware of a 2017 Clearwater police investigation based on Mr. Gil’s …report. The matter was closed out and deemed ‘noncriminal,’ no charges were ever filed, and the documents are confidential due to the allegations relating to then-underage persons.”
(Church of Scientology letter 08/13/2019)
“…accusations with respect to the Church’s alleged abuse of children are outlandish, offensive, and unsupported by a single shred of credible evidence…Law enforcement has never accused the Church of failing to fulfill its legal obligations with respect to children.”

Chrissie Bixler’s accusation that the Church dissuaded her from reporting an alleged sexual assault by her boyfriend of six years is …false. Ms. Bixler never once told the Church about her accusations, and the Church has never retaliated against her for making the claim.”
(Church of Scientology letter 08/13/2019)]
However, in the following letter, sent to Scientology in 2004 the mother of another alleged victim indicates that she and others knew about Chrissie’s allegations.]

Notes
Source: Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath: Waiting For Justice (Season 3, Episode 12), A&E. IMDB. After capturing the Aftermath series using Snag-it software, I produced the footage with an .mp4 extension in PowerDirector16, and then time coded the subliminal sequences down to milliseconds in Avidemux 2.7.3. I extracted several sample still frames from the actual footage. The image files are named with their respective time stamps. ↩
