Although Leah Remini has never specifically called out Bijou Phillips, it’s clear from the statement made in the wake of Danny Masterson’s rape conviction that she holds all Scientologists accountable for helping him to get away with his crimes for so long. After attending the 30-year sentencing of the “That ’70s Show” star, Remini, one of the most outspoken former members of the church, tweeted, “While Danny was the only one sentenced, his conviction and sentence are indictments against Scientology, its operatives, and its criminal leader, David Miscavige … These women not only faced the living hell of being raped, having their rapes covered up by the very organization that promised to protect them, but they have also faced ruthless and criminal harassment by Scientology and its agents since they came forward to law enforcement.”
Remini left the religious organization in 2013 and later filed a lawsuit against its leader, David Miscavige, for emotional distress and harassment. Phillips, who stood by her husband during the initial allegations and the trial itself before announcing she wanted a divorce, is said to have become a Scientologist after she started dating Masterson, whose close family are also members, in 2004.
