Those posts Whooter wrote about RB's show how full of it he is. I attended Cedu during RB's tenure. So have others on this and other fora. I can attest to the veracity of these occurrences. I personally know people who went to CEDU before during and after my time who would verify this. (Several have in this forum as well.) I was fortunate he didn't emotionally terrorize me as much as others. (I'm a girl.) But these disclosures were COMMON amongst staff. Nothing was off limits... to disturbing, inappropriate details. In the RB case, right down to the contraption. For Whooter to deny all this - well. It shows exactly how ignorant or malevolent he is. Ignorant if fooled. Malevolent if lying.
How does Whooter propose we tell? The phones are locked in offices. We are in the mountains. Our calls and letters are monitored. It is their words against ours'.
In fact, I distinctly remember when asking my parents --when they came in person every three months for a few hours on campus--to release me from that place. I did not give them any details because I knew it would come back to haunt me if they refused. Not just a little bit, but severe emotional trauma via raps. I may as well wear a bull's eye.
After parent visits, some would waffle. Thus, parents' were reinculcated with the "deadinsaneorinjail" lie after the visit.
There are some funny stories about older students acting as tour guides to parents and the big BS show they were expected to give. Inside, they were screaming, "Run for Your Lives!"
