Thank you for trying to shine some light on this dark subject. It seems still very few are aware of this. How a modern civilized country can allow the torture of it's children like this is just beyond me.

With this information, parents should take more time in choosing the best treatment center and program to help for troubled teens. This step is very critical in the recovery of your troubled teens.

Troubled parents need to be very cautious in choosing an option for teenagers, as there are various types of troubled teens options choosing a specialized teen option with the help of professional educational consultant guidance is helpful.

Military school for teens is providing many beneficial educational programs; they also offer many other additional innovative programs to train them towards many useful activities. The school provides education with proper discipline and manners.

As the 2008 elections are upon us, many people are discussing the various candidates' records and statements. I encourage you all to be informed voters about Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney by visiting the following site:

I hope that you will all make a well-researched voting decision.

2007-09-15T22:34:00.000-06:00

I am also a Libertarian, as all Christians should be, however I have learned from Jesus to not judge by surface appearances or surface issues.

Looking deeper, Romney's heroism and heroic outlook are apparent. He deserves a deeper look.

Did anonymous ever contact you about her son at Cross Creek? I know her... she might not have read your response after posting. She's been doing research, trying to find a way to help her son get out of there. If not, and you still want to talk to her, I can tell her to e-mail you...

2007-06-28T18:28:00.000-06:00

First of all, Ryan, you need to modulate your mock outrage.

Denying someone political support is hardly punitive, much less a crucifixion, and I can't think of a political candidate whose viewpoint and character are so transcendently pure that he deserves to be free-associated with the One who perished on the cross.

Secondly, if the links between Romney and the teen torture industry are so trivial, why doesn't Romney simply cut Sembler and Lichfield loose?

The answer is obvious: They're key members of his fundraising apparatus. In Sembler's case, the connection is pretty clear, because Romney reached out to him specifically. And Sembler is the godfather of the teen torture racket.

In politics, money creates a bond far stronger than love or kinship. That is not a tenuous connection.

The Edwards campaign had to jettison a blogger who had written some very offensive things about Catholics. Giuliani has his hands full with obscure campaign officials, as well.

Why should Romney be exempt from the same scrutiny, particularly when 1) we're discussing an ongoing enterprise of torture, and 2) Romney has made torture (albeit cloaked in euphemism) one of the policy touchstones of his campaign?

Your link between these allegations of torture and...

2007-06-28T18:16:00.000-06:00

Your link between these allegations of torture and Mitt Romney are so tenuous that it is almost laughable. Why are you so intent on linking Romney with something that he has no direct affiliation with? If you were to judge every candidate running for president based on the actions of people who support their campaign there wouldn't be enough crosses to support the crucifixions.

2007-06-26T20:49:00.000-06:00

Thank you for this. My son is in one of these facilities currently (Cross Creek) and I am desperate to get him out. I have been fighting for weeks to get someone to hear my cause. Noone will listen to me about the abuse he has suffered and witnessed. Not the local authorities, not Utah authorities.. not the legal system in my own state, Arizona. I am heartbroken and it seems noone has cared or believed mee.. so thank you for showing me that someone does care. I hope somewhere out there the right person hears your plea, and mine... and the countless other victims whos voices have gone unheard .. and puts an end to these places for once and for all.
Thank you thank you thank you

The blogs of Will Grigg, under the paternalistic view of the JBS were analogous to studio recordings of your favorite musical artist. The Will Grigg - on his own is mcuh closer to Will Grigg Live or Will Grigg unplugged. Belting out the Truth with no restraint - Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!

2007-06-23T13:51:00.000-06:00

Having read all the remarks made and having followed the links suggested, seeing that Mel Riddile is a parasite at many taxpayer financed "education" venues is just so typical. People need to admit they can find these types of sadists working in most government schools. And various brainwashing programs are part of all schools. The scandals involved in these "wilderness" programs are just the tip of the iceberg. Wake up, people. Your government schools, that you are being bled dry to support, are destroying your kids, your country and your way of life.

2007-06-23T13:17:00.000-06:00

Thank you for blogging about this all important, and all too often ignored subject. I was an inmate at spring creek lodge and spent almost 30 days in that small room pictured in your article called "the hobbit" and know full well everything you have stated in this article is true, and then some. It is horrible that any candidate would take the money used to torture teens and lure and fool parents into a cult like "program" which includes multiple three day seminars for parents.

I cannot thank you enough for writing such an articulate and well researched article, if only there were more journalists like yourself maybe this industry would be brought to it's knees once and for all.

If anyone wants to read my story click on my username and check out either one of my blogs.

Thanks again, for bringing light to this very dark subject.

This is an excellent job of blogging on these issues. Very well done.

Bloggers, spread this info far and wide please. These maniacs like Sembler, Riddel and their kind must be exposed.

2007-06-23T08:57:00.000-06:00

When my disabilities ended my military career, I came home to find myself courted by a couple of juvenile programs. They started well, I suppose, but fell apart for the usual reasons. While I can't deny there's a huge number of pedophiles among the power elite, as the second anonymous post indicates, I know of a certainty there are plenty of ordinary men and women who aren't.

I did have a chance to review, as a prospective employee, several youth correction programs before it became painfully obvious I was physically incapable of the work. From that limited experience, and my Christian youth work background, I wrote some comments on on my private blog for today. I quote:

As I understand it, the wilderness models were dropped, or perverted, largely because of whining from the staffers. Far too many venal idiots are hired. We simply don't have a strong pool of candidates for the job who can pass bureaucratic muster, largely because our society has struggled hard to destroy that sort of human development. Real people are labeled "trouble" by bureaucrats. Our ruling elites carry an acid fear and hatred for independent thinking and strong commitment to root human values. It tends to make people rise up in armed revolt when the government gets stupid -- as all governments inevitably do.

You ROCK! Keep the truth coming. It's only a matter of time!
My Brother's Story

And be aware in 2 weeks at this very large education conference in DC. Mel Riddile, Principal of the YEAR in 2006 is speaking along with many other highly respected people. only problem is Mel, has a secret and he's done a good job of keeping it quiet while being rewarded. He was director of Straight VA for years. While my family was there. Expose him we must. You can get a bunch of info on him here.

Great post!

2007-06-23T07:53:00.000-06:00

A large percentage of the population are involved in pedophilia. It is widespread. It is condoned/practiced by "nice, respectable" people. I stumbled across this sick revelation when I lived in Leesburg VA in Loudoun County which, by the way, has been the playground the well-to-do and well connected from Washington DC for generations. I lived in Leesburg for 10 years. It became painfully obvious that the neighborhood was an organized crime ring involved in, of course, illegal drugs, but also the child sex trade. I was naive and ignorant and reported the activities to "law enforcement", social services and school guidance counselors. Nothing was done, except that harassment of me and vandalism of my property escalated and still continues even after moving away. The child sex trade is national and international. It is protected by the "authorities". The town and county "law enforcement" in Leesburg/Loudoun were in the protection racket. The two local governments were as corrupt and perverted as the federal government. It is mind-numbingly terrifying that psycopaths of such magnitude are in control of government.

2007-06-22T21:04:00.000-06:00

When the JBS fired you, it was immediately noticed by this former member. Your blog was pretty much the only reason why I would visit their website. At the same time that I realized ( by stumbling across the Welch report on the net) you had been fired, I was receiving letters from the JBS saying everything is A-OK. They also urged the faithful to stand with them during the Vance Smith crisis. Well needless to say I didn't. Since that time both my subscription to the New American and my membership have lapsed. My rationalization was that if, under the pretext of cleaning house, they were also ridding the organization of talented help, they are probably not an organization that deserves my hard earned cash. In summary thanks to your firing - Will Grigg - I am no longer a card carrying member of the JBS.
