Plea deal for ex-school operator

She agrees not to run another rehab facility in Juab

By Linda Thomson
Deseret Morning News
     
The former operator of a therapeutic school for troubled youths who has been kicked out of Mexico and accused of starving horses in Canada has agreed not to run another rehabilitation school in Juab County.
      The agreement in Cheryl Sudweeks' case was reached this week as part of a plea bargain in a hazing incident involving students at the now defunct Whitmore Academy in Nephi, once operated by Cheryl Sudweeks and her husband, Mark.
      Sudweeks, 51, pleaded no contest to four charges of attempted hazing, all class C misdemeanors. She was originally charged with six counts of child abuse, class A misdemeanors, and two counts of hazing, one a class A misdemeanor and the other a class B misdemeanor. A no contest plea is not an admission of guilt but is treated as such for purposes of sentencing.
      The charges stem from claims by four teens that they had been abused at the facility, where investigators insist there were instances of physical abuse, as well as medical, educational and environmental neglect.
       The grandmother of one of the victims is furious over the plea deal reached ? insisting a child abuser got off easy. Even the prosecutor is muted in his praise for the outcome of the criminal case, calling it the best he could get under the circumstances.
      "These kids made some allegations of abuse and I completely believe them. That's why I filed the case. But the fact that I believe them is one thing, whether a jury is going to believe is a whole different question," Juab County Attorney Jared Eldridge said.
      The plea bargain allowed Sudweeks to enter a "plea in abeyance," which means the case will be closed in 12 months and the charges dismissed as long as she complies with the court's terms.
      Those terms issued out the 4th District include completing 50 hours of community service and payment of a fine. Sudweeks also signed an agreement promising to never run a youth program in the county for the rest of her life.
      "After discussing this case in the office and with other prosecutors I know, I felt this was a good way to resolve this case," Eldridge said. "It addresses some of the concerns I have ? not all of them ? but it resolves Mrs. Sudweeks to a be a law-abiding citizen for a year. Even if we got a conviction, that's all the probation she would have been given anyway. It requires her to pay a fine and do community service.
      "And it shuts her down, at least here in Juab County, so they can't do business here. I believe it effectively shuts them down in the state of Utah," Eldridge said, adding that he forwarded the plea agreement to state officials over licensing.
      Susan Schacherer, grandmother of a girl who was Sudweeks' boarding school for about a year, is convinced her granddaughter was repeatedly abused and humiliated.
      Schacherer said the plea bargain is a slap on the wrist that sends the message that Cheryl Sudweeks can rough up minors and face no consequences. "For all intents and purposes, she got away with it," Schacherer said.
      Sudweeks' lawyer, James Merrell, thinks otherwise: "Cheryl Sudweeks has had her life destroyed by the actions of some gullible people who work for the government who believe the words of kids that have a long history of lying and manipulating."
      While the criminal case has been resolved, the families of four young people have filed a civil lawsuit against the Sudweekses seeking financial compensation.

"Cheryl Sudweeks has had her life destroyed......"

Now isn't that just one lovely, little, warm, fuzzy statement?

Anyone think Cheryl Sudweeks can actually be a law-abiding-citizen for a full calendar year?  Now that's a lot of pressure for this woman :exclaim:  :o

Eldridge seems right about one thing, the Suds are "effectively shut down in Utah," so they need to move-it-on-down-the-road!!!

Sell that little "dream facility" they were building in Juab County, and spread that money around to the parents in the civil case, along with any proceeds from the dear ole Whit Mansion.
Sell...sell...sell.... then pay...pay...pay!!!!!!

sure like reading that part about where "Cheryl Sudweeks's life was destroyed......."  Guess she has a tiny, tiny, tiny bit of the same feeling some of those abused Whitmore kids had after she got through tormenting them, huh?

But no one's feeling sorry for that bag of shit.

A "CORRECTION CHERYL SUDWEEKS" in the Deseret Morning News on September 27, 2006 states that:
 "Chery Sudweeks pleaded no contest to four class C misdemeanor counts of hazing........"
It goes on to say:  "A Sept. 22 article included incorrect details about the dispositon of the case and the number of charges."

NOT attempted hazing!

Big difference there folks!

"Cheryl Sudweeks has had her life destroyed by the actions of some gullible people who work for the government who believe the words of kids that have a long history of lying and manipulating."

That quote there is the truth. I went there for a year and the abuse those kids say happened didn't. Stop posting shit you don't know a damn thing about, the best year of my life was there and i would trade 10 of my years now just to do it again. Cheryl is a good person so get a life and go discuss something you know the facts about.

Think Cheryl still lives there in Utah, right?
You're free to go right back there an live with her--LONG AS YOU AIN'T A KID AND SHE AIN'T IN JUAB COUNTY...so head right on back up there, kiddo.  Who's stopping you?
Oh, that's right---someone would have to pay up another $40,000 or so right??? for you to enjoy another wonder year with this woman.
Good grief.

Oh God, finally someone with some SENSE!!!  It makes me sick to my stomach that people like Cheryl try and profit from and take advantage of parents and kids who are termed 'troubled'.  Absolutely stomach churning......I agree!!  Thank you for your support!!!

I simply cannot have someone speaking in favour fo Ms. Cheryl have the last word.

This woman has destroyed lives in 3 counties that we know of.  Perhaps the family will move to Europe to start a new following.....wonder if the Mormon church will support them there?.....not likely not that they have been shut down in the  western countires.  And good luck if you decide to set up shot in Europe - their citizens are simply not as forgiivng as North American are.

Cheryl....karma is a bitch...she's catchs up with you... recall what you've done in the past that hasn't been caught...God sees all...in the end we all answer to someone.  I'd love to be there when you are answering but I trust in my faith to know that you won't past the entry test.

Good karma to all of those who have suffered and trust that same karma to make the sinners pay.

Think maybe Miss Cheryl might just hear some "final words" when she goes to court in the civil case.

She will have to answer lots and lots of questions under oath.
Understand she and her lovely whiny husband have given their depositions--so there should be lots of "ammo" available to nail her lying butt, IMO.

Think Markie Boy will take any of the falls for abusive Cheryl this go-round? Guess it is wait-and-see, huh?

Don't know much about KARMA, but do have faith in justice catching up with these fine folks in a court of law

I hope the Suds are out of the teen help business for good.  I'm curious though if anyone else referred to this program besides PURE such as any educational consultants.  Anybody know?

In October 2004, Tim Lowe, the Therapist and "Acting Admissions Director" stated that 100% of the placements at Whitmore Academy came through PURE.  Can't think of any reason the man would lie about something like that.

The self-admitted-abusive Cheryl Sudweeks and her whiny husband just gave their depositions in the pending civil case. Perhaps this was a question they had to answer in their depositions; and, of course, they would tell the-truth-and-nothing-but-the-truth, right?

i dont know if anyone remembers this, but when we took our trip down to mexico in whenever how shitty it was? well anyways when drew matt scott luke and robert got caught smoking do you remember their punishment? to sit in the bathroom of the bus TOGETHER on the ride back? after 2 days everyone got to leave the bathroom, but robert was judged still bad and had to stay in the bathroom for the entire trip back. surviving solely on the punch that was left in there, and the bags of chips he found on the ground, and only being able to urinate in the empty bottles of juice that he had just drank.

then when he got out of the bus, he was ordered to make pancakes for everyone, not only did he get yelled at for not making them right, because there wasnt enough fucking propane because marks cheap ass didnt grab anymore, but cheryl yelled in front of everyone

"do you really think we want you to handle our food? and besides what were you doing in the bathroom alone the whole time, jacking off? thats disgusting robert" then when he finally decided to try to stand up for himself he got shut down, by the rest of the kids.


just another example of the verbal abuse and neglect that really did happen.

Seems like things always got out-of-control on these "travels" with the Suds!
Your posting is another example of the abuse the kids at Whitmore suffered at the hands of the Sudweeks.
Cheryl's vile statements screamed at this young man are her standard way of speaking to the kids, isn't it?
It's just the same, sickening story: seems these people do not know how to treat kids--it matters not if they were traveling to Mexico, Canada, on a cruise....or running about the U.S.
Thanks for posting

And Cheryl Sudweeks was allowed to "cop a plea?"
Some justice for abused children in Nephi, Utah, HUH?
