If you dig hard enough what you will find is that there is no cover-up but a childs family that would like privacy.  I don’t think placing the childs picture and name on the web would be in the best interest of anyone, I would respect their privacy.

The report is correct.   You may want to contact Gil Hallows, director of the
program, concerning the death.  His number is 435-836-2472

Hello Mr Callister,

I am contacting you regarding Aspen Achievement Academy and a report that there was recently a suicide there involving a young man who allegedly hung himself.

Given that you are the licensing rep for AAA I was hoping you would be able to confirm or dispell this report.

It might be useful to contact the mom whose son died due to medical neglect in a different Aspen program (Youth Care) in June.
Her posts can be found in this thread. First as anon, then as PitBull Mom.

Or reach her at justiceforbrendan@hotmail.com

What do you know about this? I can't find anything in the media. Why?
Was there an investigation?

Sorry, this wasn’t pointed at anyone specific.  But, believe it or not, there are people who get enjoyment out of posting the details of other people’s lives on the web here at fornits, posting pictures of kids who died, posting their names, kids who are trying to start their careers, posting their pictures and poking fun at them and their families.  There are a lot of hateful people out there who do things for the wrong reasons, enjoying spreading the gossip or some other reason.

Families who have a loved one who takes their own life sometimes like to keep it private.  You don’t see the details of suicides in the paper as much as you would a child who died in a car accident or sports injury, for example, some families like to keep it within the immediate family.  So I was just asking for people to exercise a little discretion and respect the families wishes.  My suggestion would be to contact them first and ask if they mind posting their childs name, story and picture on the internet, if that was part of your intent.
