SALT LAKE CITY (CN) -" Hundreds of parents claim a group of boarding schools tortured their children: locked them in dog cages, forced them to lie in feces and eat vomit, masturbated them and denied the troubled teens any religion "except for the Mormon faith."



The Utah-based World Wide Association Of Specialty Programs and Schools and its owners - Robert Lichfield, Brent Facer and Ken Kay - went to great lengths to hide the "torture," which began in the mid-1990s and continued for a decade, the 357 plaintiffs claim in Salt Lake County Court. The plaintiffs say that 59 schools and owners tied to the company "jointly promoted, advertised, and marketed defendants' residential boarding schools as a place where children with problems could get an education while receiving instruction and direction in behavior modification for emotional growth and personal development." But they say the children were subjected to physical, emotional and sexual abuse at the schools including, Cross Creek Center for Boys, Brightway Adolescent Hospital and Red Rock Springs. They say the abuses inflicted upon some children for years "could be accurately described as torture."



According to the complaint, students were locked in boxes, cages and basements at the schools, denied medical and dental care, and forced "to carry heavy bags of sand around their necks or logs throughout the day over many days." They were sexually abused, "which included forced sexual relations and acts of fondling and masturbation performed on them," according to the 119-page complaint. Students were "forced to eat their own vomit ... bound and tied by hands and/or feet ... chained and locked in dog cages ... forced to lie in, or wear, urine and feces ... forced to sleep on cold concrete floors, boxspring, or plywood," and put to forced labor, the complaint states.


Children were "kicked, beaten, thrown and slammed to the ground ... forced to eat raw or rotten food ... poked and prodded with various objects while being strip searched ... denied any religious affiliation, except for the Mormon faith ... and threatened with severe punishment, including death, if they told anyone of their abuses and poor living conditions," according to the complaint.

2. Stories about WWASP camps are legion on the internet.

VERY abusive and coercive. There needs to be a federal law closing the loopholes that allow these places to exist.

3. What the hell? That is overwhelmingly sad.

Someone needs to off this trio - Robert Lichfield, Brent Facer and Ken Kay.

7. The defendant company still operates residential centers throughout. Where's the justice?

" The defendant company still operates residential centers in Utah, South Carolina and Costa Rica, but has faced school shutdowns in Mexico, Jamaica and Samoa amid child abuse investigations, according to the complaint. It says that more than 2,100 students were enrolled in its schools in 2003.

The plaintiffs filed a similar lawsuit in Federal Court in 2006, which U.S. District Court Judge Clark Waddoups dismissed in August for lack of jurisdiction.The parents seek punitive damages for fraud, gross negligence, false imprisonment, assault and battery, and breach of contract, and a protective order to prevent spoliation of evidence..."

9. psychopaths protect each other

Sociopaths seek power and do anything to place themselves in power,so it is very likely the court system is stacked with them so justice never happens.People outraged have to put up with injustice if they let a corrupted psychopath court dish out penalties to people they sense like doing shit the judge likes too.

So when will citizens learn what a psychopath is and get the courage to start defying the corrupted laws,start physically removing psychopaths from power and removing psychopaths from our lives..There has to be an answer. Psychopaths do not change they cannot be cured they are abusive and a danger to anyone as long as they live.
Why do we elect these creeps? Because they can look so upstanding,they charm us lie to us tell us what we want to hear,that is their mask..See underneath and you will realize just how disgusting and dangerous psychopaths ARE and they can NEVER be trusted or believed or safe.


Sociopaths are found in groups as small as a family, or as Executive Directors of organizations, all the way up to Supreme Court Justices. Wherever there is any possibility to assume power over other people, Sociopaths will be found lurking. A very common place is as an Officer inside State and Local Political Parties, known as the Big-Fish-in-a-Little-Pond syndrome. Becoming a Judge is an automatic career hideout. It's entirely possible that half the sitting Judges at any point in time are certifiable Sociopaths.

They are everywhere.

6. When 1 in 4 people are psychopaths

There is no suprise anymore when this shit happens in this miserable world.Justice as it is is an attraction for psychopaths so it is inadequate.

We need to start killing psychopaths that are caught raping torturing,abusing adults& kids.Quit falling for their flattery&charm.Quit trying to fix the un-fixable.Cut down on their numbers ,less sociopaths,less suffering for innocent kids and adults...I see no other solution.Yes you could babysit these monsters in jail,lock them in a cell for 23 hours a day for years and make them crazy and psychopath, and let them loose on society after the half the actual sentence is over. They can fake lie charm anyone so they can do crimes again .Wonder why recidivism for ex prisoners is pretty high?..or we could simply kill them.In a grave they cannot escape,charm people to make victims of them,or hurt anyone again.
Death penalty is in my opinion a tool to stop psychopaths from hurting people,they must be stopped and if jail is no deterrent what can we do?
Crimes like what happened to those kids are perpretrated by people that are psychopaths.In a grave,they can hurt no one.

How can someone DO something like run a torture camp for kids disguised as a school? Read this.

“Sociopaths will take advantage of others whenever they can, whenever they sense individuals involved with them show great respect for them, are naive – or fear them,” Cangemi and Pfohl write. “The recipient must expose the conscience-less predator for what he/she is – face-to-face. No excuses. The sociopath must be exposed and must know the individual is aware of what is going on and is not afraid.”

Millions of men, women and children are impacted daily by the sociopaths in their lives. Sociopaths can cause great pain, anxiety, terror and humiliation. They can make a good impression when needed and often portray their victims as the culprits.

Later when I'm explaining how psychopaths always mask themselves when seeking positions of power, it will help to remember the following: If a rational person tries to apply their logic while trying to understand the reason for an objective or act of a psychopath, they will fail. This will be explained in more detail later. Likewise, when a rational person hears of the possibility that a massive lie has been told to a population by a trusted leader, and they attempt to use their logic to determine weather or not such a lie is possible, they will usually not believe the truth (that they have fallen for a huge lie).

The reason for this is that although most of us can identify with small lies, we find it difficult to conclude that such a massive lie is possible. When I use the term massive lie, I don't just mean a complete falsehood regarding a major event, but also the scope of its influence (global) and the amount of people that have fallen for it.

\“Bravo!” was my immediate thought. But why? Isn’t this a sign of the evil in our society? Weren’t the fire-bombings of synagogues a few years ago something to grieve and feel the weight of shame? Should not the public take responsibility for the psychosocial disease in its midst? Why doesn’t the community protect this congregation?

Because the community doesn’t care.

How many sociopaths does it take,,and how much abuse by sociopaths does it take to have a society cowed to much ,and too fearful of authoritarians to fail protect each other, to create a culture without care,safety,or justice?

Child abuse has been with us as long as psychopaths get away with it.

10. Haven't clicked the link yet, but this part sounds fishy:

" denied the troubled teens any religion "except for the Mormon faith."

I don't doubt instances and abuses like these exist, BUT--the inclusion of this sentence leads me to believe there may be a religious source behind the story: a competitive faith.

Will read later and apologize if I'm wrong.
