Title: Straight National - St. Pete
Post by: carolemclea on September 25, 2002, 04:51:00 PM

Anyone know what happened to Bill Oliver who was CEO of Straight National when it formed in St. Pete, probably in 1983?  Hope his fate followed Miller Newton's.  He is a diabolical person which was not commonly known by the general population at Straight.

Yeah, he went on to be the exec dir, I believe, in Virginia and then founded a couple of organizations; PANDA and PRIDE (Parents something, something, Druggie... whatever)

I vaguely remember him visiting Atlanta Straight. Seems like when those high-up executives visited, everything would get all tidied up and swept under the carpet, sort of like when the Joint Accredidation people visit hospitals...such incredible hypocrisy

A man high on the totem pole. We're talkin one of the main dudes in the scam of things. Better get ready for a long open meeting because I think the whole entire room is full of shit. Bill Oliver and the Miller gang are up for the dues that they deserve in my opinion.

PRIDE= Parent Resource Institute Drug Education led at one time by Terry Hill whom also had a couple of children in KIDS.

Bill Oliver- the definition of full of shit.  For years, he may still be doing it, he would do speaking engagements and preach the gospel of the virtues of a drug-free family and life style, when his daughter(Peggy) relapsed.  What a fucking hypocrite!  Does this man have no conscience?  Did he learn nothing from Straight (LOL)?  I ran into his wife a few years ago and she owned an antiques store.  She didn't speak about Peggy.  Guess BO puts the fun in dysfunctional!
