--- Quote from: ""Guest"" ---They were recently sued (July 2006) regarding the death of a boy named Matthew Meyer, who died while attending their program. The boy's mother claimed that the counselors refused to administer his bipolar medication and he exhibited severe withdrawal symptoms. On the day he died, he supposedly laid unconscious and vomiting for fifteen minutes before he was given any medical aid by the staff.
What was the name they used to go by?

Are there any news links to this story, or any supporting documentation so we can add him to the memorial list?

Teen dies after hike at school
SOURCE: From staff reports
DATELINE: ALVIN
ALVIN - A former Alvin High School freshman a attending an East Texas alternative school program collapsed and died after a one-mile hike Friday, officials said Tuesday.
[1 mile? Was that a warm up for the 10 mile? It was 97* with 90% humidity, at 5pm that day.]
Parents of the male student, who has not been identified, withdrew him from Alvin High School on Thursday so he could attend Lone Star Expeditions School near Apple Springs in Trinity County, said Alvin school district spokeswoman Shirley Brothers.
The boy had just finished the hike at 5 p.m. Friday when he said he felt faint and lost consciousness, said Scott Spaw, executive director of Lone Star Expeditions.
An autopsy is being done, Spaw said.

AEG has been pretty busy snuffing kids in their programs recently. I wonder if this fatality made the "stat sheet"? :roll:
In their flagship program, ASR, it has been shown via the Shapiro study that 1 in 153 commit suicide as well. They're just dying to get out I guess...

Its too bad, I had heard about this. The child never really got a chance to participate in the program. He was walking up to meet his group that he was going to stay with when he collapsed. I think it was like a mile or less. No autopsy results have been released nor charges made. Its just one of those unfortunate things that cant be prevented no matter what any of us do.
This is true classic fornits though, we have conspiracy theories “snuffing kids in their programs” and DJ who thinks we should count it as a suicide to help support his high suicide rate theory in TBS’s.
If you look at the facts and hard numbers over the past 5 years close to 7,000 children took their own lives between the ages of 8 and 18 and greater than 7,000 were killed in public schools and at home( that’s 14,000 children). Of the thousands of children who attended Therapeutic Boarding schools ( TBS’s) only 1 managed to slip through the safety net, those are pretty impressive numbers which doesn’t begin to talk about all the kids that were turned around and put back on track.

of course if it was longer than a i mile hike, if there had been previous overwork... theyd be at risk of criminal charges. Of course they wouldnt misrepresent the truth about what they had been dong to that boy...that woul be dishonest and people arent dishonest to stay out of jail. And these authorities sure do a good job of investigating suspicous deaths in program...just look at rpbert reyes at thayler..or that girl Michele who died over a period of 2 weeks on one of those wonderful forced thereputic marches no charges filed of course
