leah-remini-scientology-missing.jpgAfter Leah Remini filed a missing persons report for Scientology leader David Miscavige's wife Shelly, the Los Angeles Police Department has closed the case because they were able to find the woman.

Additionally, Media Relations from the Church of Scientology International released the following statement:

    "The Los Angeles Police Department has already stated that the case is closed and that the report filed by Leah Remini was unfounded. This ill-advised, ludicrous self-promotion and the media inquiries it generated caused an inexcusable distraction for the LAPD in an era when the time and resources of its officers are stretched thin each day. Creating this unnecessary burden for law enforcement was even more irresponsible given the entire episode was nothing more than a publicity stunt for Ms. Remini, cooked up with unemployed, anti-religious zealots who blog on the fringe of the Internet. Sadly, rather than move on with her life and career, Ms. Remini has aligned herself with a handful of untrustworthy, lunatic tabloid sources who obsessively harass the Church to advance their selfish agendas."


Though various reports note that Shelly has not been seen in public for nearly six years, veteran Scientology reporter/former Village Voice editor Tony Ortega claims she's living at a private Scientology compound outside Los Angeles. Additionally, an attorney for Shelly told Us Weekly that she is "not missing ... Any reports that she is missing are false. Mrs. Miscavige has been working non-stop in the Church, as she always has."

I guess that settles that!
