I had placed my son there on Mother's Day, 2003. My husband drove our son there while I sat home second guessing our decision. I began searching the internet for anything I could find on this place or it's owner's Herman Fountain or John Fountain. I found all kinds of allegations of abuse and torture on the kids. 3 1/2 days later we were back down there rescuing our son. He was covered in bruises inlcuding a black eye. Because we showed up unannounced he was able to smuggle out the names and numbers of three other boys. We also called their parents. Within 5 days the other three boys had been rescued also. We all met with the Attorney General's Office (Mike Moore). We were assured they would open a full blown investigation. A week later the state went in and removed all the children with visible signs of abuse to the face or neck. That is the only part of the body they could see. Two weeks later another 16 boys ran away. 8 ended up in protective custody and the other 8 ended up at a former drill instructors house. All with stories of abuse and torture, sleep, food and water deprivation. Three days before our Court date to testify (August 26th, 2003) we get a call from the Head of Crim. Inv. that the State worked out yet another deal with Bethel. Bethel will no longer use electrical shock for torture, will no longer make the children go to the bathroom on themselves, will feed them three times a day, will not slug them in the face. I could go on and on. We parents are now filing a Class Action Lawsuit. We will name the State of Miss. and Bethel Boys Academy.
If you were ever a student or parent of a student at Bethel, please e-mail me direct. This abuse and torture chamber has got to stop.

This woman runs the forum circuit spouting crap continually about Bethel.

I do not believe her, and if you do you are a gullible american that wants to believe the worst about everyone.

I guess she does not have ANYTHING constructive to do with her life otherwise.

Which woman? Which forum? Can you give us a link?

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of it's victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busy-bodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those that torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Why do you doubt this lady? She's saying the same the same things everyone else is.

Real criminals walk free every day to rape, rob, and murder again because the courts are so busy finding consensual criminals guilty of hurting no one but themselves.... To free cells for consensual criminals, real criminals are put on the street every day.

Thanks, I appreciate the added publicity.  It's the only way I can continue to find more victims of Bethel Boys Academy and Bethel Girls Academy.  Our lawsuit is "power in numbers".  One child lying.  Maybe two, three, four or five.  But 50?????  They weren't even there at the same times.  Nope.  Blows Bethel's defense right out the window.  Again, thanks for the free publicity and assistance in helping more victims sue Bethel.

Here are some more sites I have been popping up on.  Bethel's webmaster is doing everything in his power to stop me.  He has threatened websites to remove my posts.  I am not doing anything wrong by posting the facts as they happened to my son.

Go Girl!!
Rampant talking. Parents need to hear ALL stories, not just those designed to recruit.
Good luck with your efforts.

I am certain Bethel's webmaster was probably brainwashed and under mind control. That operation over there is a weird place. I know people that have worked there. Herman is an abolute power stroking monster. He demands you loyalty or you are gone.

I mean, where else do you know of a place being run by an exconvict that is keeping children for God's sake!!

That fact alone is insane!

Whatuduen is right about Bethel. I believe one day whoever that poor smuck is that is Bethel's webmaster is going to wake up and regret going after everybody in the name of Herman!

There is too much smoke to not have a nice little fire burning underneath it.

Bethel is dirty, and the truth will come out!

Everybody encourage whatuduen. She needs it. Herman turned his trained dog, aka webmaster loose and sent him after her and others that were simply telling the truth about Bethel.

I feel for that poor webmaster. I hope he is not too badly brainwashed. Herman has that affect on people.

Mind you, I'm entirely uncredentialled. I consider myself a professional because, over the years, I've learned enough about net communications to be able to make a living at it.

That said, if you want to open a forum and keep it somewhat insulated from brute-force censorship, shop outside of the mainstream and outside of the US for a hosting provider. The exchange rate for Canadian or Finish currency will also work to your advantage. A small but competent hosting provider will not fear unjust reprisal so much as a big company because they have no assets worth going after, they value every customer as an individual and, maybe most importantly, it's the principle of the thing. They are the first to recognize that they live and die by actual freedom of speech.

Of course, if anyone wants a forum or web page on Fornits, I'm always happy for new business and generally give deep discounts to "good samaritan" efforts that are unlikely to make a lot of money. But that's sort of like putting all your eggs in one basket. So go forth and find/create new niches. This issue's time has come.

Everybody's lost just waiting to be found. Everyone's a thought just waiting to fade.
