The New York Times has picked up on the story.

It is very important to keep pressure on Ashcroft. Anyone with first-hand experience can E-mail the Department of Justice at:

AskDOJ@usdoj.gov

I suggest you put "To Mr. Ashcroft - please forward" in the subject line.

The article is at:

And it reads:

National Briefing: Washington

Published: November 5, 2003

PLEA FOR INQUIRY ON SCHOOL NETWORK Representative George Miller, Democrat of California, asked Attorney General John Ashcroft to investigate a network of 11 behavior-modification schools for troubled teen-agers, citing accusations of child abuse, human rights violations, deceptive advertising and fraud. The network, the World Wide Association of Specialty Programs of St. George, Utah, oversees programs for more than 2,200 young people in the United States, Mexico and Jamaica. It has attributed suggestions of misconduct to disgruntled customers and staff members. Tim Weiner (NYT)
