Why Scientology is threatening Diane's life...

1) Diane Richardson is a librarian/researcher of the highest caliber. Not only does she have enormous data bases at her finger tips, she is dogged and thorough investigator who allows very little bullshit to get passed her. This puts the Church of Scientology at a great disadvantage, and so they would like to silence her, evidentually permanantly.

2) Diane is a close personal friend of Dennis Erlich, and Dennis is causing the cult enormous problems by beating the pants off Helana Korbin and Earle Cooley in court. Like other authoritarian regimes, the Church of Scientology knows that by putting preasure on an enemy's friends, the target -- in this case Dennis Erlich -- will frequently yeild, to save loved one's from coming to harm.

These are my best guesses as to why Robert Marcus has issued a threat against the life of Scientology critic Diane Richardson.
