      Also The Program on Netflix. It’s a really well put together documentary made by one of the students at a similar school.

      Ho. Lee. Shit.

      I’ve been reading this over the past few days since you posted it, I’m on chapter 69, and just wanted to thank you for sharing it. This is the most insane mind-fuck, eye opening read I’ve ever read. Even just experiencing this story 2nd hand through the words of the author is absolutely soul crushing. I can’t even begin to imagine what these kids have gone through.

    The problem wasn’t the lack of checks, it was not following up on the vomiting. Tbh q15min checks visualizing the face with a flashlight throughout the entire night should be considered an act of cruelty.

      Does it mention using a flashlight? I just read they’re supposed to check that she’s breathing.

        “As a result of Duenez’s death, Vive said it would re-train staff to observe three breaths for every client every 15 minutes and to “carry flashlights for checks at night” to ensure “head and neck are visualized” during those checks.”

    Reminds me of Paris Hilton’s experience in Provo where she dealt with assault. Apparently these places are so unregulated, that there’s basically no regulations.

      these places are so unregulated, that there’s basically no regulations.

      Isn’t that just “unregulated”? “Completely unregulated”?

        I mean sure, if you wanna split hairs. Maybe underrgulagted was a better choice, but that’s harder to mobile swipe / type.
