I would like to know about it as well.  I am one that typically supports HLA on this site.  If this is really happening, I fully encourage you to go to the authorities about it.  I think we can all agree that there is NOTHING okay about making threatening calls, no matter what side of this debate you are on.  Seriously, go to the police if this is happening and find out who is doing it.

These last two posts are in regard to threatening calls I have received from Dahlonega, GA.  I have contacted the State Police and they are working with GBI to investigate.  

I am told that this is a felony.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that their investigation bears fruit and that this deranged SOB gets hit hard.

I'll give updates as I get them.

Although I'm sorry you're having to endure that DJ, it looks to me like they're getting scared because people are daring to pull back the curtain and expose the great and powerful Oz for who and what they are.  :smile:

I'm sorry that my wife has been exposed to this thuggery.

Unfortunately, these threats are misplaced.  I have no interest or ability to shut down HLA and I have stated as much regularly.  The only threat I personally represent to HLA is a potential one regarding their revenue stream.  If prospective customers read commentary here, they may not buy the product.  So what?  there are plenty of sucker with plenty of money waiting in line to be fleeced.  They'll get their money.  No need threaten me with violence.

I had this to say on another thread.  It sums up my position regarding HLA.

"I'm workin' it. It just ain't the same program.

Seriously though, these folks try to treat me as if I'm some scared kid that can be pushed around. I've been flamed, degraded, derided, defamed, harrassed, threatened, you name it.

I recently had threatening phone calls to my house in the middle of the night from a tip-traced line in Dahlonega, GA. My wife was failrly freaked out, and rightfully so.

Something these people are going to have to realize sooner or later is that I can't be sued, threatened, harrassed, intimidated or otherwise pushed off my position and if you fuck around with my family, you'd better be prepared to pay heavy in blood and treasure. I ain't no daisy.

The facts are what they are. HLA is an unlicensed RTC masquerading as a "traditional boarding school," and there's nothing short of obeying the law and treating the kids right that's going to make me stop jumping up and down and screaming about it.

There ARE some good people working there, I know that. I admire Len a great deal also for how he has built his business (business, not program). It's nothing short of phenominal when you look at what we started with there.

That being said, there has to be some measure of accountability, reason and sanity when dealing with young, fragile, developing minds. It would go a long way in my book if HLA just quit being so defensive and entrenched in denial about the real, palpable problems with their "program" (which doesn't work) and staff (that don't help) and put some of those remarkable profits into getting these kids some real help for their real problems.

I don't want to break anyone's ricebowl. That isn't going to happen anyway. Nobody is going to be "brought to justice" or any other silly notion like that. I just want to see these poor kids get what they need and deserve, and it isn't happening right now. And I'm not going to stop talking about it and reporting it to the proper authorities until it does happen."

How in the world this stance can justify threats of violence against my family is beyond comprehension.  It just goes to show the type of people who are in this business.  It's very sad commentary on their morality and principles.

Until you know who placed these calls, do not assume they are coming from any sort of directive by the school itself. Whoever it is, I do hope they are found out, however, I doubt seriously this was an act that the school directed an employee to do. Their way seems to be more along the lines of legal action, not harassing phone calls. I do have a question, however, is your phone unlisted? You may consider having this done, as it is a little harder to find on the internet if it is unlisted.
