I still hate him. I hate the fact that he hurt a lot of kids, even though he was plugging his ears in his office at the time and didn't hear it, and he never ever said sorry. You'd think someone who ran the place would come out and at LEAST have a crap shit press conference "We have fully investigated the matter, fired people," etc, etc, but no, it was all lies, always lies they told the media. LIES while children were, in the full legal, international sense of the word, BEING TORTURED.
Mel Riddile sucks as a human being. I hope he can manage at least some kind of pathetic apology before he dies, but he is a loser and if I really thought about the girl I think about who was in there for TWO YEARS while Mel Riddile had a big executive office, and she got "spit therapy" and marathoned in a closet with violence and other girls screaming in her face because in the wierd cult we were taught that we had to care, and if we cared we would do anything to/for anyone else including hurt them psychically or yell in their face, to save them from otherwise doing drugs and all the cliche things that would happen to us if we did. all in the service of a wierd cult in which she couldn't have a bedroom of her own, and time alone to wake up and go to sleep and the whole middle of the day too, some sunshine and some birds for a poor girl who was crying for her mom, or really, who forgot how to cry for her mom, but she was just rocking back and forth on the carpet. I am really uncomfortable thinking about Mel Riddile and thinking about this girl at the same time, plus the people who killed themselves after Straight because of Straight's thoroughly illegal thought control program exacted on them, if I think about everything I am really sick thinking about Mel Riddile, really sick. I can't even think about him, it makes me so sick. And if you don't know what I am talking about then you suck, so go figure it out.
