You mean you honestly believe that of the tens of thousands of families who have been through some part of WWASP programs, there are like half a dozen critics and the criticizm only goes back to the day Sue Scheff got pissed off at WWASP?
Just keep on telling yourself that :rofl:
Over and over again, these politically correct and politically connected program operators have been able to deflect, bribe, cajole and intimidate regulators and criminal investigators. Just because FBI and the embassy decided not to move on any of it doesn't mean they didn't find anything. It only means they're disinclined, for whatever reasons, to expose this crown jewel of the Office of Faith Based and Community Initiatives.
To expose WWASP and all the other teen gulags would be to undermine the entire industry. There's a whole lot of money captive in this industry and concentrated in a few hands. It goes all the way back to the greedy piss nazis and all the way forward to the prison industries where a lot of the 'beneficieries' of these 'services' finally land up.
Don't worry, buddy, TB is getting to be a household name. The tricky part is that recent survivors have to be the ones to get busy contacting the media, the regulatory agencies and such to get the ball rolling. Very often, they don't want to relive all the hell, are afraid of getting sent back and do not have the support of their families in pursuing action.
Here's an exception to the rule:

Next the statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting the blame upon the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception."
