Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / I need more information

There is videotape of these records having been abandoned-- either from VA or MD Straight, I can't remember which.
It was done, as I recall, by a Florida TV station in response to Richard Bradbury's efforts at exposing Straight after some runaways came directly to him. The tape showed boxes of abandoned, clearly medical records in an empty building. As I recall, the reporter expressed outrage that this private information was simply left for anyone to find it.
I imagine the next stop for it was the dump. The tape gave the impression that people had left the building as though someone-- police? regulators?-- had been chasing them and hadn't been able to dispose of the records properly.
If this is the Straight you were at, I do not think you will be able to get the records even if they now wanted to give them to you.
To the person who posted about having a copy of a letter from Dr. Schwartz, would it be possible for you to PM me? I would love to see a copy of that.
