We have yet to see any evidence or links to lawsuits where people claimed they were abused. We have ORS reports which are in the hands of one person who was or is presently in litigation with HLA and another who is an ex-employee. So the information we receive isn’t going to be unbiased or even accurate.
Again...Although I initiated this lawsuit, a lawsuit that bears my name, I pulled out long ago because I was not in agreement with NOT citing negligence in the lawsuit; I was NOT in agreement with the settlement, nor was I in agreement with the attorneys for the plaintiffs. HLA was investigated in 2006 not by it's own initiation - far from it. The investigation/ investigations you are citing, are investigations of incident reports turned in from Ridge Creek and HLA, not a full blown investigation as that of 2006. The 2006 ORS investigation of HLA sprung from repeated complaints of neglect,abuse, ethical violations, etc. that date back to 2001( as I am aware) and obviously from the letter/letters Gov. Perdue forwarded to the ORS(when I was initially called by the ORS, they stated my letter to the Governor was before them, and I imagine there were more).
If you seek the lawsuits against HLA, you shall find them...it is in the HLA post settlement disclosure in Ryan vs. HLA. You will find this on Pacer. Any funds paid by out of court settlements, you will not find, as the plaintiffs signed off non-disclosure documents with Buccellato's former attorney's 'Quirk and Quirk", which to my knowledge includes 4 former staff. It was not just the children that were alleged to have been abused.
Again, I stand by EVERYTHING that was alleged in Ryan vs. HLA. I stand by EVERYTHING that was turned over to the GAO. I stand by EVERYTHING that was turned over to the IRS. Frankly, with everything I know, I am surprised I am still standing.
The only reason the ORS licensed HLA was because their back was to the wall, the ORS would have rather shoved it all back under the rug (as the documents prove time and again) along with the rest of the politicians in Georgia( although the Gov. did step up to the plate with the ORS, if just for an email in time).
Are we biased? Yes, because our government was to be "for the People" and their job was to protect and serve - they stood by and did nothing because of politics. Georgia needs to clean house, period. Each and every one of you that closed his/her eyes to what was before you, is just as responsible as Leonard Buccellato. What transpired there was absolutely not only unethical on all fronts, but criminal.
