Recently (a few days ago), a student referred to HLA by Martha Kolbe freaked out, ran away, then got physical with the cops who were sent after him, tried to grab a gun, and is now reportedly facing several felony charges.
When his dad went there to collect his belongings, the kid's counselor didn't even know the boy had been arrested. The family is devastated.
What does it take, one might wonder, for consultants to wake up? Dr. Kolbe has always been HLA's leading referral source.

What does Dr. Kolbe think about this tragedy? Why would she continue to refer kids to a facility that clearly is not properly staffed and the kids not properly monitored? How many more ruined lives is it going to take before people wake up to Ed Conning and unregulated, unlicensed "treatment" facilities?
Can anyone flesh out this incident? People should understand how something like this can happen and the devastating effects these unregulated businesses of Ed Conning and Behavior Modification programs.

--- Quote ---Quotes taken directly from a court filing on February 2:
"I am more than eighteen (18) years of age, under no legal disability, and I make this affidavit based upon my personal knowledge.
"As mentioned in more detail in my declaration of December 6, 2006, Hidden Lake Academy ("HLA") has suffered a sharp decrease in enrollment, primarily due to the decrease in referrals from educational consultants.
"My understanding of this decrease in referrals is that the educational consultants fear legal action against them, which fear arises from the allegations in plaintiffs' complaint implicating educational consultants.
"As set forth in more detail in my declaration of December 6, 2006, HLA has suffered significant loss of revenue due to decreased enrollment. Enrollment has dropped from over 150 students in September to 102 as of this date. Since September 1, 2006, 42 of the 120 employees of HLA have been terminated due to decreased revenues.
"Despite reductions in the number of staff and reductions in the salaries of those who remained employed by HLA, HLA's revenue is insufficient to cover its expenses (mortgage, payroll, utilities, etc.) each month.
"Due to the dire financial situation faced by HLA, further reductions in the number of staff employed by HLA or closure of the school is imminent.
"It is important to note that this situation affects not only the employees of the school, but also the 102 students currently enrolled at HLA who have completed approximately two-thirds of their academic year. Further staff reductions will result in a decreased quality of service to those students.
"Even more troublesome is the imminent threat of closure of HLA, which I reasonably believe will have devastating effects on the currently enrolled students, whose mental health will be jeopardized by such instability.
"HLA cannot afford a continued delay in the prosecution of this litigation and will not likely survive the two months that plaintiffs' counsel has requested to conduct discovery prior to a decision on class certification."

"educational consultants fear legal action against them"
I would too if i were in Dr. Kolbe's position.
Look, Dr. Kolbe (and any other Ed Con reading) HLA is not a safe environment for children!
How much plainer can it be said? Stop referring kids there and warn your clients about the dangers!

How much plainer can it be said? Quit your job and find something more respectable to do, like selling crack on street corners!
