A tipster passed along something we didn't know: Noted Scientologist Greta van Susteren's sister is a psychiatrist. Or, as Greta's religion would have it, a practitioner of the industry of death, a fraud, a drug-peddler, and a rapist.. We asked her what she thought of her sister's curious views.
Van Susteren (Dutch for from Susteren) was born in Appleton, Wisconsin. Her father, Urban Van Susteren, was of Dutch descent. Her mother, born Margery (Conway), was a homemaker of Irish descent. Van Susteren's father was a longtime friend of future U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy. McCarthy was best man at Greta Van Susteren's parents' wedding. Urban Van Susteren, an elected judge, served as a campaign strategist for McCarthy, although Urban later broke with him. Van Susteren's sister, Lise, is a forensic psychiatrist in Bethesda, Maryland.
