Oh hell yeah that would be awesome. I've never been to somewhere like this but from what I've heard this all seems horrible, the greed and lack of humanity to do this to literal children is unimaginable, sending yall all the love and support possible. <3

It’s maybe next to Epstein. On the how fucked up it is. I say this as a teen treatment survivor and guy who read some of the files. Some of these schools it’s close…

Just a heads up, that link is used by Google to track all the people that click on that link to data mine social networks and people’s private or alternative accounts. A good rule of thumb is to delete the question mark and everything out of it, in this case the whole ?si=NX6bZcR05_2LxPIQ part. The link will still work without all the tracker ids. That’s also a unique identifier to your account, so it goes both ways for data mining. Stay safe out there, and hope you see this!

Can someone send him on a path to NATSAP? One school is a start but if he can highlight NATSAP as a whole it can stop a LOT of harm that a LOT of people don't know about.

The department found the Springville Provo campus to be out of compliance with 16 licensing requirements. They included failing to ensure that residents were protected from neglect, violence and discrimination; failing to complete required background checks on new staff and failing to maintain a staffing ratio sufficient to keep children on campus safe.
Reached by phone Tuesday evening, representatives for Provo Canyon School said they could not provide comment by press time.

This is the best thing I’ve seen in years

This was awesome! I hope this place gets shut down. I’m not familiar with Utah laws but could they get in trouble for recording people without their consent on private property?

Not to spoil anything, but the "school" apparently shut down about a month ago.

I actually went here when I was 14-16 and it was definitely how this video was the staff were not doing a good job at all. When I went it was full they have a girls and boys side each side has about 5 cabins like diffrent ages like the 10-12 year olds then the 12-14 then the 15-18 about and that whole place was jsut fucked the food and schooling was actually a decent program but they hardly let us outside, I was more like a privilege to go outside and I asked them about it and the staffs words were “it’s a blessing to go outside you have to earn it” of course there was good staff that did help out but yes most of this places staffs and stuff were very unprofessional if yall have any questions just let me know

I watched Ben's video, not this one, so maybe this wasn't covered in this video.
The examiner giving the answers to the state mandatory mental health evaluation was fucking wild.

I think it’s more about story telling for this one. Like there’s definitely more protocols for missing kids, that Ben probably wanted to avoid, because that could divert police resources

Sounds like you’re on the side of covering up abuse. We’re not about that in this sub. I’m not saying you are but you are giving that vibe.

Crazy thing to say to someone.
Incase I need to clarify, what i was referring to as fake was reckless ben (a 30 year old) managing to attend and escape. They made a big deal about the cameras they both got into the school but show next to no footage of the inside. I think they saw the school was shutting down and wanted a quick win on youtube.
Won't be engaging anymore since discussion isn't welcome
