At 17, he left home and was later disconnected by his family.[4][5] He spent seven years homeless while using and dealing drugs[2] before attending community college.[1]

Mace-Kingsley Ranch


At 8 years old, Rich was sent to the Scientology boarding school, the Mace-Kingsley Ranch in Palmdale, California, and then again at age 14.[3][2] Rich alleges the Ranch was an abusive environment, with punishments including being scrubbed with a metal fence brush and paddling from the staff.[1][2][3]


Documentaries


In October 2017 Rich appeared in episode 17 of the U.S. documentary series, Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath.[1]


Personal life


Since moving to China, Rich has started a video blog sympathetic to the People's Republic of China.[6][7] Among the views he holds are that those who had taken part in the Hong Kong protests were "terrorists" and "right-wing",[8] and that Taiwan was an integral part of China and could therefore not be a state.[9] He has also commented on the China–United States trade war[10] and China's handling of the coronavirus pandemic.[11]
