I don't know about rape in LIFE - never heard anything about it.
Beaten and tortured - affirmative. I had my hair pulled for refusing to motivate, and saw several times someone being taken to the floor by at least four people for some mysterious reason.
Phone taken away - so you couldn't tell you parents that they were pulling on your hair, or the fact that some 80 pound 12 year old was taken down by several large guys over the age of 16. That's helpful.
No TV - that prevented you from learning the truth. It kept you from asking questions about the bullshit they tried to feed you. If we had access to the news, we would have known the Armageddon Rap was total bullshit.
Dogs loving cats - hey, it happens. Love is love, guy :grin:

Yes, staff would casually walk up to a random individual and quickly YANK their hair (for fun). Happened all the time. I saw it daily. They also gave wedgies and wet willies at random.
This would qualify for "beaten and tortured".
As for the "taken down" - you had to have blue eyes and blond hair to be taken down on Tuesdays. Brown hair, green eyes on Thursdays, and black hair, brown eyes on the weekends. Occassionally staff drew names out of a hat for the one to be "taken down", yea ... that's the ticket. (It had NOTHING to do with the kid kicking or punching the other kids next to them).
Phones were eliminated from anyone associated with the program. None in the buiding, host homes, etc. Phones are EVIL and cause evil. (at least until 4th Phase)
As for no tv. I think you should check into the statutes of limitations on that. I smell a LAW SUIT. You're just like a holocaust victim being refused TELEVISION. What horror. I am simply appauled by this. They might as well cut off your hands and feet while they were at it! Seriously now. How DARE they. Certainly your parents took action as SOON as they found out you were denied television, right?!? Someone call MONTEL back, and get Oprah on the phone too.
