David Miscavige is the worldwide leader of the Church of Scientology. He is also the chairman of the board of the Religious Technology Center, which owns the rights to the ideas expressed in L. Ron Hubbard's Dianetics.
In October 2009, four former high-ranking Church of Scientology members alleged that Miscavige was violent and hit staff members. Scientology spokesperson Tommy Davis denied the accusations.http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/scientology/scientologists-level-accusations/story?id=8792417
