In this hour-long docuseries, actress Leah Remini turns investigative reporter, she says, to "share the shocking truth about Scientology", the secretive, controversial church that Remini herself was a member of for years. With her personal experience acting as a driving force, Remini - along with high-level former Scientology executives and members - relates shocking stories of abuse and harassment alleged by ex-practitioners who claim their lives have been affected even well after they left the organization. The Church of Scientology, which has made multiple attempts to have A&E Network pull the series, refers to Remini as a "has-been actress" who's exploiting her former religion to make money.
