Bonnie Woods

Bonnie Woods is an American former Scientologist and critic of the Church of Scientology based in England. She was a member of Scientology's Sea Org and left in 1982, after which she and her family were monitored by a private investigator. The Church of Scientology spread negative and false leaflets about her around her neighbourhood. She sued it for libel, and it filed three libel suits against her in response. Her case eventually reached the High Court of Justice where, in 1999, Scientology admitted that its claims about her were false and paid her for costs and damages.
