Aspen Education's Systematic Child Abuse
Whooter:
--- Quote from: "Dysfunction Junction" ---There's no evidence of this other than your Aspen PR report. The fact is that MBA is gone. They're closed. If they did nothing wrong, wouldn't they still be operating? I think we all agree that they would be. But they aren't. Not sure what "trial" you're referencing since there was a settlement already that resulted in MBA being out of business.
Actions speak louder than words and Aspen's action was to close up shop which doesn't jive with their PR spin. Sorry, but you just have no credibility on this issue, Whooter, since you already admit being an Aspen fiduciary. No offense, but you can't be believed.

Sorry DJ, but again you can think what you like. The state of Oregon backed off. If you want to refute their statements and Aspens statements in the news release then that is your right. But myself and many other readers will rely on what the State of Oregon and their local news media reported on the case.

Whooter, that's nothing more than a press release from Aspen Ed. I'm asking you for the original citation where you say that the State 'revised' their original statement. Can you or can you not provide that?
--- Quote from: "Whooter" ---A statement from Phil Herschman, President of Aspen Education Group, on behalf of Mount Bachelor Academy:
We are pleased that the ongoing legal dispute between Mount Bachelor Academy (MBA) and the State of Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS) has finally been satisfactorily resolved. The DHS has agreed to withdraw or modify all of its actions against MBA and MBA’s former director. The DHS’ withdrawal of its order suspending MBA’s license supports our position that they did not have justification for that order in the first place. The DHS has acknowledged with this settlement that in fact there was additional evidence no abuse had occurred.
As we have repeatedly stated throughout this process, our fundamental disagreements with the DHS' original allegations and consequent actions were strong and deep. We had collected abundant evidence that disproved those allegations, particularly the most egregious ones.
Despite the tragic circumstances of Mount Bachelor’s closure, we hope to open a new, even more successful school on the MBA campus in the future, and wish to publicly thank our skilled and dedicated employees who touched the lives of thousands of troubled teens for more than two decades at MBA, and the loyal alumni and families who steadfastly supported us.

Dysfunction Junction:
You haven't shown a single shred of evidence to support your position other than an Aspen PR release. Do you have documentation from the State of Oregon? Do you have any source documents? No, of course you don't. Not to mention, MBA is CLOSED. If they did nothing wrong, they'd be OPEN.

Then provide the citation where the State backed off of their original statement.

If you read the newspaper article it covers what the state of Oregon had to say on MBA and what Aspen Ed had to say in the same article. I have to go with what the news media in Oregon reported on the issue for now. If you want to believe something else that is fine. I am just reporting the facts and I provided links to support my point of view.
