I think that this is it. The one instance which is the topic of this thread and the one additional instance cited in the mini-"documentary" linked by TB of "Scientology-induced" psychotic killing rage are isolated and poorly understood.

Scientology is still of course evil, and there are plenty of other reasons to take action against it.
