LOCKDOWN!

I'm so happy to see this article in The Humanist magazine concerning fundamentalist lockdown facilities. The home profiled in this article by Michele Tresler-Ulriksen concerns Victory Christian Academy, what used to be an independent Baptist girl's home.

I am proud to say I played a part in getting this home closed down by bringing together a former resident of victory with a public access producer. We shot the interview, the video was sent to the Department of Children's Services, and it was closed down on Valentine's Day.

The proprietor of the home has been accused of rape, so naturally he's free to start more homes:
