Jami alleges that sexual encounters between male staff and residents became commonplace and that she was drugged and molested by Ted Suhl. She also suffered a broken arm and the ranch staff tried to hide it from ever being found out by keeping her in a private home. She alleges she only saw a therapist once. I'm guessing Medicaid paid full price anyway.

In our first interview with a former Lord's Ranch staff member, we get the rare opportunity to hear the perspective of one of the people who actually worked at The Lord's Ranch and wasn't a sociopath.  He talks about fraud, physical abuse, staff breaking children's bones and making it out to be their fault, and staff watching pornography with residents in the staff room at their house.   Ted Suhl refused to believe any of it was true or that anything was a staff member's fault when this anonymous staff tried to remedy the illegal activity. Tes Suhl told the staff member that he was lying and that he was a liar.

Surprise!

We will be doing post-show recaps for every episode this season.  That means we'll discuss each episode on air in the form of a miniature episode. This one was different because we essentially had a conversation about an episode where we introduced ourselves. I believe the recaps from our upcoming interviews will be even better.

We'd also like to interact with our listeners, so be sure to listen to the directions at the end of the podcast so you know what you need to do to get your question/statement read on air during our next post-show recap.

Maurice Collins came from the streets of Chicago. If every allegation about The Lord's Ranch were proven to be true, his life in Chicago would still be more dangerous. Regardless, Maurice went to The Lord's Ranch when he was 14 and the pain has followed him into his late 30s. He spent three years there until he graduated.

While he was a resident, Maurice claims a staff member potentially broke, fractured, or dislocated his shoulder in front of every resident in his unit. At the time, Maurice said he wasn't being a threat to himself or others--which would make it illegal to do. This kind of complaint was common from former residents.

Collins said they refused to take him to the hospital or to even see an onsite nurse. Maurice made a homemade sling out of a shirt for his arm when the staff at The Ranch refused to provide him with any medical assistance. He remembers crying himself to sleep from the agony and crying on his way to church the next day. It was three months before he could use it properly again, he experienced agony for weeks without any medical care. He was not given a reason.

In this episode, Ryan and Sammi share their stories of how they ended up from the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska all the way down in Warm Springs, Arkansas. They share a few stories about when they began to realize this wasn't your average treatment.

Sammi re-enacts some of her original letters that she wrote once she realized the pamphlet she was given wasn't anything like the Ranch appeared to be.

They both share stories of how they beat the system in various ways while they learned to survive in the most bizarre place they had ever been.

Sammi and Ryan talk of their first times getting into trouble, they tell stories about some of the meaner staff during their stays between 2004 and 2006. 

But more than anything they introduce the listeners to The Lord's Ranch in  Warm Springs Arkansas,  and the two cohosts who will be taking you on this unusual.  journey.

Gear up. We're just getting started.

Flaws in the Medicaid system have caused multiple teenagers to suffer illegal abuse. People are committing these crimes with impunity all over the country.

We need to fix this broken system. Stop ignoring troubled teens.

There are numerous sexual, emotional,  and physical abuse allegations coming out of these long-term treatment facilities. Until the alleged perpetrators receive the proper form of justice, this will only continue.

Several former residents and some former staff claim the staff used to utilize corporal punishment whenever a kid was disrespectful or non-compliant. Ted Suhl has vehemently denied this in the past. They claim that they only restrain residents when they're being a threat to themselves or others.

Meanwhile, there are over 40 years of allegations that staff would regularly attack male and female residents when they weren't being a threat to themselves or others. (This includes Ted Suhl) Even some former staff members have said the same thing during this investigation.

In Warm Springs Arkansas, a religion-based adolescent mental health facility was scattered down long dirt roads and behind thick clusters of trees.

Nobody would have ever guessed that a large chunk of the town was owned by one single family. The family owned a residential treatment facility that was spread throughout the larger houses in the town. It harbored kids from parts of Texas, Chicago, and even all the way up in Alaska. Some kids stayed for months--others for years.  Bud Suhl showed us that if you make the right connections, even as a felon, you can talk your way into millions.

Ted Suhl is either learning that lesson now, or after decades of exploiting children, he's financially set for life. I'd lean towards the latter.
