Ok now I see how I missed the three springs stuff. I just now came from the three springs  thread and I see that most of it was from 2010. I spent the better part of that year in and out of the hospital. So that's on me. But you can be sure I'm gonna' go back  and read.

Well.  Che has been around a lot longer than that.  Longer than I have even.  In any case, please be careful when you're throwing around accusations.  I can't say i'd trust any of the staff members I was in program with (even one who apologized to me) and I get where your distrust is coming from, but please do contact Che and at least attempt to give him a chance.  I can't force you to do that, or even to trust him, but I'm telling you as somebody who has been around here for a long time and has observed him closely that you might at least try to give him the benefit of the doubt.

I almost understand staff that were "graduated" into their positions. But the ones that wound up there because the quickie mart wasn't hiring?

And you think they had an idea what they were getting into?  Even at the program I was in, I fully acknowledge that most of the staff (most of which couldn't get a job at a "quickie mart" because of checkered pasts) wanted to help the kids there.  Most of them had the best interests in their heart. It's easy to think that something is "necessary" to help a person, even if it hurts them.  The vast majority (click that link) of normal every day people will go along with it so long as the experts say it needs to be done.  It's not because anybody is evil.  It's because people are trained to believe and trust those in authority.  The fact that Che apologized and realizes what happened was wrong means not that he's a bad guy, but that he's one of the small minority who eventually tells the authority figure that shit is actually really fucked up, just plain wrong, and tries to do something to stop it.
