Quote from: "Guest"Notice the style of writing in all those reports against Diamond Ranch are the same. All the reports were written by the same person with nothing better to do then story writing. It is amazing how far people will go to discredit a place trying to help children.Just like ISACcorp, HEAL retains the originals on file but keeps the named and signed declarations (under penalty of perjury) private. That's their right. Considering your threat, it's probably also a wise decision. If you claim they were never signed and were all written by the same person, you're implying heal to be complicit in the deception. If that's the case, why don't you sue HEAL. Go ahead. Make Angela's day.
Disgusting.
Notice no names were given because they didnt have any and if they did add them they would have been sued for slander. So there is no way to verify the info, no newspaper articles or police reports.
i have personally spoken with or have exchanged emails with three of the statement writers. They are all real people, believe you me. All those kids needed was someone to care enough to ask about their experience. DRA is no Tranquility Bay, but the indoctrination model of crediting the program for your "sanity" is our philosophical objection. We know Brendan needs help, but not at the price DRA and his parents want him to pay. Adolescence is not a disease.
