I still am unable to reproduce this problem with a simple document, but having imported a four page rtf document and then running:

tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"
set find preferences to nothing
set change preferences to nothiing
set mystory to parent story of selection
search mystory for "^p" replacing with "^p^p"
search mystory for " ^p" replacing with "^p"
search mystory for "^p^p" replacing with "^p"
end tell

I get a crash every time on the third search. (Would that the first and third were unnecessary, but the styles get screwed up if you don't do that.)
