The media are hunting down details of the tragic but fascinating double suicides of artist couple Theresa Duncan annd Jeremy Blake. According to the LAT's Chris Lee, paranoia about Scientology plus Hollywood disappointment brought the beautiful art-world celebs down.

I know several producers who were quite literally scared of Theresa Duncan. One told me he often looked over his shoulder, afraid she'd stab him in the back.

Anne,
If the LA Times and the NY Post had truely done their job as you describe in your post ("The media are hunting down details of the tragic but fascinating double suicides...." ) the story would be quite different. To begin with, both are riddled with rumors.
The NYC publication VILLAGER did an interview with Father Frank Morales who followed 10 mins behind to meet Jeremy Blake at his apartment the day he found Theresa Duncan as they all had been out to eat earlier that afternoon.
The article is 'Artists double suicide casts a pall at St. Marks'by Lincoln Anderson.

To poster "Mike", you post just like the Scientology staff propaganda SpamBots do over at the usenet group alt.religion.scientology when critics of the "church" post information thatScientology does not want it's readers to know. You are a liar. PROVE what you say right here: Full names & dates.
Betcha won't, coward.

Mary-- I talked to Father Morales for several hours on more than one occasion. While Theresa and Jeremy were indeed very distressed, Father Morales saw no evidence of anyone following, stalking or harassing them. I quoted two people who went on the record about the accusatory emails and letters that Duncan and Blake had sent them--both got lawyers, neither had any affiliation with COS.
I was stalked by members of a cult--Children of God--two years ago, and I'm extremely familiar with what it's like to find random photos of my license plates, my kid's school and my dog posted on a website, as well as threatening letters sent to my workplace.
Further investigation may indeed prove that some of your assertions are correct. But to accuse everyone who has a view of Theresa Duncan that differs from yours does not make them a tool of LRON.
Posted by: Kate Coe | August 17, 2007 at 09:06 PM
Kate, if you spent 2 hours speaking to Father Frank Morales, then where is the evidence of it in any of your articles? Npowhere. Nada. Perhaps the reverend did not give you enough meat to help you shore up your story.
There are many people you did not speak to or perhaps did speak to but you've dismissed as credible because you went into this story to malign the reputations of these two people. Good close friends are not necessary for trash articles like yours and Mr. Lee's. Carol "Christine" Nichols is no better than you for alluding to a professional friendship where none existed anymore. Her's ended years before because she was a lousy businesswoman and was pro-scientology. Interesting how she just happened to be the first mole to speak up badly about the two. You must have been frothing at the bit for the July 31st announcement of Jeremy being ID'd so you could get your trash piece up on August 1st. It's almost as if the thought that these 2 people had good loyal friends, and relatives, had never occurred to you.
Search the internet and you will find those who are calling you out on your coverage of these 2. Here's one for starters:

A Letter to Kate Coe: How You Got the Theresa Duncan Story - Wrong
http://dohray.typepad.com/t/2007/08/a-letter-to-kat.html
Instead of doing the decent thing and getting a balanced story, you with your envious grudge go went seeking those they dismissed as loyal, all the while implying that these bitter losers would make a better story to match you preconceived gossipy article intended to destroy the goodwill they'd created on the internet.
What a glorious moment I am having, being able to finally respond to you, the rabbit who posts trash on others blogsminimizing the largess of these 2 special and well loved people, then running for cover under the after you've heated things up with your rumormongering.
Blake's stepfather knows full well about the intended lawsuit Blake and Duncan were set to begin against Scientology. He probably offered to help them, until he found out just who it was that was to be sued. It's bad enough that Blake's mother is a mental health counselor - a fav target of scientology and it's CCHR front group- but the truth is that Arthur C. Delibert works for the very law firm who provided pro bono representation and lost a major case for their client who was being sued relentlessly by The 'church' of scientology. And Mr & Mrs Delibert probably tried to talk them out of filing their case against such a hyper-litigious and evil organization. This would surely explain Theresa's last blog quote
But you never did your research on the possibility that there was truth to the couple being harassed. Perhaps your own fears from your own experience you mentioned made it easy for you to take the easy way out. Good journalism does not do what you did and failed to do. Shame on you for justifying your lousy articles and selfcentered & myopic blog comments.
If you go down in history for the biased and unprofessional work you did on the life and deaths of this couple, it will be of no more surprise to many. Shame on you.

It would not be the first time that CoS has given paranoid people some grounds for being paranoid. Perhaps this pushed them into becoming more unstable. It is a tactic the CoS specializes in. It only takes an open mind, and a little hard research to figure out how the CoS operates. I wonder why Coe didn't bother?
Posted by: coricancha | August 29, 2007 at 02:07 PM
I have been researching these two horribly tragic deaths and I see no obvious reason that either one of these brilliant people would have decided to just give up and quit. Scientology is obviously a cult...what if it is a cult that pushed these two brilliant minds over the edge?
Posted by: Robert | August 26, 2008 at 03:31 AM
By the way, with regards to Kate and her pathetic assertations, because you were stalked by a cult gives you the right to become a cult expert? At least you acknowledge that Scientology is a cult. I don't give two shits if Brad Pitt or any of the other Hollywood douche bags are preaching its virtues, it's a cult for weak minded idiots. Case in point Tom Cruise and his crazy ramblings. LRON was a fucking idiot and if you don't like his philosophy look up another crazy fuck his name is Joseph Smith.

You might want to explore the possibility she was an alcoholic.
