Drug Czar of My Dreams
![]()
Hey Matt,
I came across your article for Huffington Post just now. That rez just keeps getting better and better. I’ve been busy. I hadn’t looked over the reform sites, or anything else much lately till now. They’re all about the diversion. I’m in ARD in a rust belt town now. Believe me, it’s a life changing experience! Public transportation here is not good. It’s a 12 hr+ round trip to the county courthouse where I have to report and costs me $20 in fares. Add to that around $900 in fines, another $300+ in service fees to MADD, County Diversion (for a Miss Cleo style ‘assessment’) and drug and alcohol classes. Oh, and 60 hrs of community service. There’s not a lot of work around here in walking distance that doesn’t require a vehicle. I’m practically homeless for the first time in my life.
I’ve had just about all the help I can stand. This might drive me to drinkin’! Please find me a drug czar who will quit being so damned helpful. I wonder what Ron Paul is saying.

Michael Palmer is reportedly in Fort Dodge, Iowa. According to information obtained by ISAC, Palmer is calling himself Dr. Michael Palmer, recently purchased a large building, and is interested in buying a vacant church.
Additional updates will be posted as information becomes available.
Victory Christian Academy is a locked-down Christian boarding school for girls in Jay, Florida.
Girls as young as 10 are accepted at the facility.
Victory Christian Academy is also using the name Lighthouse of Northwest Florida.
The owner of the facility, Brother Michael Palmer, was a long-time associate of Reverend Lester Roloff.
Roloff was notorious for paddling pregnant girls in his homes for “unwed mothers” as well as declaring that he preferred “death or jail” to state licensing of his facilities.
Victory Christian Academy used to be located in California but Palmer and his wife moved the facility to Florida after a California judge ordered the facility to close and banned Palmer and his wife Patty from EVER working at another unlicensed facility in the state.
At the time, Palmer was on probation after being convicted of operating a community care facility without a license.
Palmer also owned Genesis by the Sea, located in Mexico.
Mexican authorities raided Genesis by the Sea on September 10, 2004 after finding evidence of abuse, neglect and a “punishment cell.”
Officials gave the program 48 hours to remove all children from the facility.
Several students and many of the staff members have been moved to Victory Christian Academy.
Palmer has been accused of sexual battery by a former student and reportedly is not allowed to be alone with any of the girls in his care.
Victory Christian Academy is presently accredited by FACCCA (Florida Association of Christian Child Caring Agencies).
The current Vice President of FACCCA is Michael Palmer.
For more information regarding the Florida Association of Christian Child Care Agencies, please see our FACCCA page.
Michael Palmer’s son and son-in-law are both deputies for the local sheriff’s department.
Michael Palmer’s son reportedly transported students to Genesis by the Sea.
Palmer was listed on the Board of Directors for Palm Lane Baptist Academy, which closed earlier this year after numerous allegations of abuse against the school and its sister-school, Mountain Park Baptist Academy.
Mountain Park closed as well and information obtained by ISAC indicates that employees of Mountain Park and Genesis by the Sea are now employed at Victory.
For more information regarding Genesis by the Sea, Palm Lane, and Mountain Park, please see our Archives page.

December 8th, 2008 12:12 am
Sunday, December 7th, 2008
A series of emails have been released by the
International Survivors Action Committee about the current status of operations taking place at the Milford, Ohio branch of Pathway Family Centers, known as Kids Helping Kids. According to emails from Jim Lapczynski, (a legal representative employed with ODADAS, Ohio Dept. of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services) Pathway Family Centers has decided to close their Milford, Ohio location of Pathways.
This decision comes to light after over a month of emails and reporting, as well as, investigating of this particular issue.

Here is an email that I received yesterday morning from an apparently cowardly and anonymous source yet to be named. I say to the source,” If ye feel so strongly in your opinion then show yourself and personally stand by your convictions. As for the website or anyone that is involved with the website being even remotely involved with the organization HEAL(Human Animal Earth Liberation), it is simply not true. Although, we do not refute HEAL, we also do not condone or endorse HEAL either.
Without any further procrastination, I give you the email that I have received:

Dear PFC “Exposed” :
It is obvious that you’ve decided to join forces with HEAL and bombard the internet with propaganda against Pathway Family Center. It’s very amusing that you’ve tried to “distance” yourself from the others and create a “show” of dischord when everyone knows you all work together to fight the “bad” program called Pathway Family Center.
Pathway Family Center and its staff are not fooled by your online “disagreements” with “WDTony” and know exactly what kind of game you all think you are playing. You can create as many websites against Pathway Family Center as you wish. It won’t work. You are weak and foolish children playing online games and no one is buying it.
You only make yourselves look more idiotic by playing these games. Leave Pathway Family Centers alone. You did not close Kids Helping Kids. It was closed in order to consolidate and strengthen the Indianapolis and Chicagoland facilities. You may have noticed other successful and good treatment centers, such as Aspen Education Group, have done the same thing in these troubling economic times. How dare you claim that your actions over the last few years closed down a good program. It did nothing. You are weak and you will never achieve anything more than chasing your own tails.
I hope everyone looking for a good program sees how you and your “friends” operate and fool the public with games of argument on your little fornits pages and elsewhere online. Who cares? You all look like idiots. Stop the bullshit and come clean about what you are really up to, you drugged out freaks. Everyone at Pathway knows you are only trying to make money and give the “finger” to people who’ve done nothing to harm you. Get over yourselves.
In All Sincerity,
Rusty

This just in …..
We have received official word that Kids Helping Kids, a Pathway Family Center is not in fact closed here in Milford, Ohio. The International Survivors Action Committee(ISAC) has officially released word that the Ohio facility is not closed and that the program is still using the facility in Ohio as an asessment center and marketing hub. This announcement comes to us after an official email released to ODADAS(Ohio Department of Drug Addiction and Alcohol Services) by program director Monica Mertens stating that
“Pathway Family Center no longer has a treatment center in Ohio. We only do assessments and
marketing at our site. Hopefully, new funding will be received and we will be able to open back
up.”

![]()
This just in…….Several eye witnesses have observed that Kids Helping Kids ( a Pathway Family Center) located at 6070 Branch-Hill Guinea Pike in Milford Ohio, has had no clients at the building for a total of four days now.
Apparently, a few days ago the President of the International Survivors Action Committee (ISAC), William Earnshaw, reported this fact to Mr. Jim Lapczynski, a legal representative of ODADAS (Ohio Department Of Alcohol & Drug Addiction Services), and Mr. Lapczynski knew nothing about it.
William Earnshaw is also reporting now that a program parent has indicated that Kids Helping Kids( a Pathway Family Center) in Milford, Ohio has been shut down. When a source called The program to verify that the program is in fact shut down, the program denied that they are shut down, and are now claiming that they are using the Milford, Ohio branch as an assessment program.
Dear Kids Helping Kids, a Pathway Family Center,
I just would like to personally know which option it really is: a.) Shut the fuck down? or is it option b.) assessment facility? You people cannot have it both ways.
An email was sent to the president and CEO of Pathway Family Centers, Teri Nissley, to request verification of an answer either way. As of yet the email has yet to be returned with an answer.Also another thing, always remember this: one down …two to go! Protesters are not going away anytime soon.
love ye!

No comments Digg thisTwo Days of Protests for Two Different Programs
On Friday and Saturday, if you didn’t notice, the entire world stood still. Two protests against programs occurred in two different locations that were lead by two very different people. The first protest, and the 12th one by Deprogrammed and her legion, took place against the Pathways Family Center in Milford Ohio. The second protest, lead and performed by the solo protestor act.da took place at a Peninsula Village Regional Parent’s conference at the Countryside Inn in Raleigh North Carolina. Despite the geographical separation, the difference in programs, the protests both sought, among other things, to expose to those around them the truth about the danger of the protested programs.
Peninsula Village, a treatment center or so they claim, is located in Tennessee. Survivors of the program have made allegations of physical abuse, mental abuse, and neglect of numerous types. More information about Peninsula Village can be found here http://www.isaccorp.org/documentsnz.asp#peninsula. Another source of information regarding Peninsula Village can be found this interview viewtopic.php?f=52&t=21438. Facing Pegler, one of the administrators of Peninsula Village, and the parents of the children being abused in Peninsula Village demonstrates a turning point in the evolution of the active, but entirely legal, resistance to Peninsula Village. Before Saturday the majority of the resistance to Peninsula Village was internet based. As of Saturday Act.da has demonstrated the willingness to take it beyond the realm of the internet in such away not all could ignore it.
While Pegler seemed content to ignore Act.da, others did not. Act.da managed to capture on film (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p4k5iVz8bc) a parent asking why he was still present after the police were called to make him leave. It is interesting to note that the police did in fact arrive. Even more so it is interesting to note that the police officer who responded was somewhat annoyed that his time was being wasted responding to such a trivial call. The officer was not in the least bit annoyed with Act.da. The police officer informed those who made the complaint that Act.da was in no violation of the law and he, the police officer, couldn’t believe he was being called over one person. While act.da was tightening a noose of truth around Peninsula Village’s neck on Saturday Deprogrammed was once again beating Kid’s Helping Kids with small legion of protesters on Friday.
Deprogrammed, a former resident turned staff member of the Kid’s Helping Kids program, has been instrumental in leading a long series of protests against the KHK programs in their various guises.The KHK program having transformed itself into the Pathways Family Center has a long history of abuse. Please see this link for more information http://www.isaccorp.org/kidshelpingkids.asp. The first protest against Pathways Family Center occurred last year earned local media interest with this article http://www.cincinnatibeacon.com/index.p … ping_kids/. The activities of the protesters have been well documented on blogs, screenplays, and youtube videos.
The lunchpail blog, http://onlinelunchpail.blogspot.com/200 … ation.html, gives a somewhat amusing retelling of an interaction with a program supporter. One can see the intellectual powers of the program supporter clearly were not present at the time. This youtube video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_xHGwyC … re=related, shows one of the protesters signs being stolen. The November 30th protest of 2007 can be viewed here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQenxwq7 … re=related, displays the determination of the Pathways protesters. Friday’s protest had an attendance of twelve participants, including some first time protesters and a police presence.
Like most program protests the police were called. Of course, like most program protests the police left after determining that the protesters were not violating any of the local ordinances. This must have come as a relief to the first time protesters in the crowd due to their age. Deprogrammed reports that these protesters were teen agers who have never been part of the Pathways program, but wanted to speak out. Hopefully they’ll continue speaking out against abuse of any sort in the future as they do not appear to be the atypical teens. The success of both protests can be measured and weighed by one standard.
Television coverage, radio coverage, or newspaper articles not being factored the protests are a success to the people who participated in them. Protesting is the physical act of defying the authority of another. Act.da and Deprogrammed with her small legion are physically defying the authority and power of the programs who’d love to silence them. The programs use the intimidation of calling the police, misinformation given to their clients and parents, and out right intimidation from program supporters to protesters. The programs failed on Saturday and Friday to silence the one thing the program’s hate the most, the truth. This is the standard of success the protesters measure themselves by, their unwillingness to be silenced. No matter how many times the police are called, no matter how many people show up or don’t show up, no matter how many program supporters accuse them of being drug addicts, no matter how many signs are stolen by program supporters, these protesters will not be silenced.

On February 22, 1943 Sophie Scholl, her brother Hans, and Christoph Probst were found guilty of treason against Germany. The three were beheaded the same day. They were condemned as traitors for producing and distributing leaflets titled - Leaflets of The White Rose - the name of their loosely knit group. Those leaflets clearly and passionately explained the crimes being committed against millions of innocent people in Europe and Russia by politicians acting in the name of the German people. The leaflet was the sixth in a series that had been distributed over a period of a little less than a year by various means throughout Germany.
The White Rose movement was intended to trigger an awakening by the German people to their ability to positively influence society to become more humane. Their rallying cry was “Freedom and Honor!” The White Rose advocated that German’s proactively work towards creating such a society by rising up and refusing to passively go along with the government that was staining the good name of the German people. For daring to suggest that German’s act on their conscience instead of mindlessly following the government’s directives, the people of The White Rose were targeted by the German government to be ruthlessly hunted down, In addition to the Scholls and Christoph Probst, Alexander Schmorell, Willi Graf, Professor Kurt Huber and Hans Leipelt were executed.
