Le Programme: Sectes, mensonges et enlèvements

This did not expect this documentary to touch me the way it did. I spent 12 month at Casa by the Sea. I Find it funny that another reviewer compared the tactics to the military and so stated it was difficult to be sympathetic. I served 7 years in the Army, with two deployments to Iraq, one of those being attached to an infantry unit. I'm also a firefighter. I've seen a lot. I would rather relive any other point in my life than that program. If you haven't been in it, you can't speak to it. What this documentary does so well, is that it does not whine and say that no one understands why are parent could resort to sending their child to a program. What it DOES to is explain why they are harmful, and usually, don't have the intended outcome. From the lack of credible staffing, programming, mental abuse, physical abuse (which I did not sustain, but I also am not surprised), and financial corruption, this documentary does a great job of fulfilling its intent. To inform.

I heard of this documentary on Joe Rogan's podcast #2148 when guest Gad Saad mentioned it. Fascinating and very disturbing that this has existed for so long and is still an industry today in 2024. The importance of this issue needs to reach as many people as possible. Perhaps Joe Rogan can have Katherine Kubler as a guest. Another criminal industry of child trafficking funded by the U. S. Government. How? Watch this documentary to learn how and be enraged. This three episode documentary is very well made. Katherine Kubler brings her survivor friends along this journey to tell the story of imprisonment, physical abuse and most importantly, life long lasting mental trauma. And, this is still going on today.

If you have ever wondered what being sent to a residential treatment center, Katherine Kubler encapsulates that feeling so accurately, I was transported back to my own experiences in the Troubled Teen Industry. This was so thoroughly researched and thought out. The connections between Synanon, WWASP programs and the Litchfield family and the LDS Church really show how complex and multifaceted this vile industry is. Thank you to the survivors who participated in the creation of this docuseries and to the people who worked tirelessly to make this happen. You will change lives with this. We are Unsilenced!

I would absolutely rate this a 10 out of 10. Aside from the absolute cruelty that has happened and still happens to thousands upon thousands of teens, the filmmaker was extremely well prepared and this was an amazing portrayal of these particular cons, cults and kidnappings. I am very glad that she, along with the others in the documentary series, brought this issue to the fore. Investigative, emotional and riveting, throughout all three episodes. The storytelling was done very well, and as disturbing as it was, it really shines a light on these toxic and dangerous programs. I have a few ideas of how, as a group, we could try to shut these places down, so reach out to me if you'd like. I was a woman, I want to see these people pay for their evils. Thank you for bringing this issue to the public. These programs have been going on for far too long. I was born in the late 60s, and I remember some back then. Parents are also brainwashed into thinking these programs are good. These people are swindlers , sociopaths and con men. I want to see justice. This Netflix documentary will certainly do that.

Documentaries are so alike that we start feel like once we've watched one we've watched them all. There was just something different about this one.. maybe its because it was created by the people who went through these horrid things. It has a personal touch to it that no one else would really be able to shine light upon.

Even though 3 episodes is plenty and there wasn't really much else to be said at the moment, I was left wanting more. I want to know if justice was served or if any of the children there today can be set free.

I hope this show go viral so the people behind the camps can be stopped and all current victims can be saved.
