Title: Tranquility Bay
Post by: Froderik on June 18, 2003, 12:20:00 PM

I wonder if there are survivors of Tranquility Bay. Perhaps there should be another Forum?

They make it look like a COUNTRY CLUB. Disturbing indeed...

Jamaica is an excellent location for the Program because it offers the benefits of a foreign site

Benefits of a foreign site... I think I know what they mean by that.  I'm sure it is beneficial to THEM in the sense that they don't have to worry about being shut down by courts in the US.  They don't have to worry about parents snooping around or being tempted to just show up & withdraw the kid.  They don't have to worry about escapees ever finding a way home.

Don't forget the distress and isolation of being kidnapped and taken to a foreign country. That makes the brainwashing easier.

there is something which I haven't read yet about how it took 76 violations to shut down the VA Straight.  I guess in a foreign rehab, they get to stay in business with unlimited violations.

I've never been to one of these places, but I learned of this site through ISAC.  The Observer, an English newspaper, published an article about the facility in Tranquility Bay:

Hope this helps.
