Paris Hilton returned to Utah Friday to host a rally, calling out alleged abuse at Provo Canyon School and similar youth treatment centers along with other survivors.
You're so proud of her yet you have no idea what other stuff shes done in her career. Do you know shes supported more charitable organizations than the Kardashians? Paris has done so much more yet it's sad you finally recognize her when shes out with a sign on corner and a speaker phone. So to get your attention people have to protest?
@@joebates2368 when you're known for sliding on a car with a cheeseburger, wearing a shirt that says stop being poor and your documentary was "how to live like normal people" it's hard to know you've done anything good in your life.
@@michellemabelle6531 the burger commercial is just a way to get paid, shes a known name, so they used her to grab attention, and the shirt thing was part of her "persona" she made after she got out of this torture school. not the best persona ill agree, but she was hiding her past, tryin to get away from it. shes grown up
@@michellemabelle6531 oh shut up you know nothing about her. You just listen to the tabloids portraying her as a dumb blonde. And FYI Michelle her shirt said stop being desperate.
this comment section is literally so disgusting I can’t even .. she’s fighting for everyone who’s been through or still going through the same sick traumatic things that she’s experienced. How are people so full of hate just because she’s “pretty and famous” I don’t get it
@Moab Man why would you come here to say that when ppl in that school hurt many other children, she's raising awareness for more than just herself. You must love the idea of hurting children
Probably because tons of children get bullied including me but so broke and no one care while a famous rich person have struggle they have to complain and people say aww poor them. I rather be rich and bullied than poor and bullied and no where to run away can’t even buy a phone( im using an old friend phone as a gift which im grateful to it) do you see the privilege of those rich celebs suffering compared to no bodies like us
@@desertmoonlee6631 I would love it if the reality that poor people and other victims of bullying and abuse were centered in public more, in a productive way that addresses how we can stop some of that. However it's a shame you've adopted your own form of bullying trying to center yourself on a post about other victims, who are all children and helpless to defend themselves. Children of rich people still experience abuse and we can make the world a better place by understanding what these behaviors are and working hard not to adopt them ourselves....I'd hate for someone like you to become like the ones who made you that way
I was sent there and I can tell there a long drive way till the campus you can’t just park without being noticed and you can only see the kids when they let me Out for 1 hour once a week
This is hard to listen to . When I was teen I was really skinny. My older brother was bigger ( 6’4”, 300lbs ), and took out all his penned aggression from football and school out on me, literally beat me constantly. He was the football player my parents took up for and bragged about, so they did nothing to stop him. I stayed away from home on my bike and then car until early morning and then wouldn’t go to to school because I was tired from not sleeping. My dad was a judge, and had U.S. Marshals come in my room in the middle of the night, put me in a caged prisoner transport car and take me to an out of state “ re-hab “ with chronic drug abusers, alcoholic kids, etc. , and the Dr. diagnosed me with paranoia and depression ( I was getting the shit beat of me at home ), of course I’d be a nervous wreck. The Dr. there would diagnose whatever the person’s insurance would pay for, and say you’re ready to go home when the insurance ran out. So going back to the same situation, it was a repeat cycle of this FIVE times. I finally got my GED and joined the military at 17 just to get the hell out, and prove to myself I wasn’t crazy, but the middle of the night snatching me up, has severely affected me in the military with insomnia and fear of going to sleep when it was crucial that get rest to continue our missions. My parents fuckd me up bad mentally doing that shit, and it was almost like they thought it was the thing to do to label me as mentally ill because didn’t go to school, never addressing I was getting beat up, so I stayed away from home until morning and then slept through the school hours from exhaustion. The hardest thing is one time when I was a teen, my dad went to a car dealer friend’s business, and the guy asked my dad “ this isn’t the football player, this is your trouble son ?” . How in the fck would you feel as a kid knowing that your parents had said that about you to their friends? It’s like they are promoting you to become a trouble kid, or convincing you to think you’re crazy. I can identify with this %100, and yea the Army became a closer family to me than my own. It fcking suks. . .
I'm so sorry. You didn't deserve to be treated so cruelly. I pray for you to have peace today and for you to feel the love from people like me, whose heart breaks for people like you. I don't pity you, I respect you. For getting past this shit and facing the day. That in itself, is truly commendable.
Damn dude! If I was your 3rd brother I would have protected you from all that shit! Your brother should have done that instead of what he did do! You dad abused his power and perhaps your mom just went along with that shit. But look at you now. Bottom line is you have a past to overcome. You can't hold on to this shit forever. Let them live with what they did to you. Leave the last there brother man.
Thank you for sharing your story. I'm sorry sorry you went through this. Parents can be so manipulative to get their kids to be a certain way rather than allowing them to be themselves. Future generations are learning from their parents mistakes including gen z, we honestly are approaching mental health so differently. Health over school 100%
This is not uncommon of group homes and foster care abusing kids im glad Paris Hilton is speaking up alot of those kids ended lost in the system or Out grow system into adults.
Nothing is alleged, she told her story what happened. What sick person is going to tell someone what they are saying what hurt them is not true. That's the biggest problem.
I’m an Court Appointed Special Advocate for children in foster care, I have heard first hand from a child who was sent there that he was abused there. He had been attacked and lost a tooth. When I would call to check on him, the psychologist was always there and he could not tell me what was wrong. There were times when he woke up in the morning and would find someone who had crawled into his bed. Provo Canyon needs to close down ! What happened to him was pretty recent. This is ongoing.
@Moab Man Moab learn to be a gentleman. Kids are being abused. This woman is standing up strong to do something about it. Be a part of the solution not the problem.
It's not easy being famous and having someone sell your private life to the internet. She's no pronstar to me. She's a good person to stand up even in the face of people like you giving propaganda scrutiny. Shes using that fame for good bringing this abuse to awareness...I'm always gonna remember that..what really makes a person . I see there strengths over weakness. Try to water that sir. Moab learn to be Moab gentleman
Funny how God is all powerful and could snap his fingers and free all those kids. But he sat and watched all the children go through the school. And let their abusers continue. Even though he can simply blink and fix all of this in a split second But he chooses not to
No fame no Paris. She doesn't know any different. But the problem is not the school but aging has finally caught up with Paris. God can only take so much of her shit. She must learn it happens to everyone and must be grateful. How about helping people instead of bathing in wealth and fame. It makes u look shallow
I never understood why a parent put their child into a boarder school, they should bring a parent and not put their child away, I feel sad for Paris and all the others, it explains a lot of her behavior in her younger years.
I totally agree with you! Parents should be taking care of their own child. I don't understand how these type of schools are legal. It's heartbreaking.
@@illuminatibody3439 I also wanna spread awarness to the people who have been forgotten in there because their was supposedly a kid who held the “record for basement time” it was .....2 years.......
@@Spida_Chapplliinn Omg...that is horrible. 2 years? I don't have words, I can't even begin to process that... The systematic cruelty and behind the scenes cruelty must be punishable and condemned. While cruelty and evil people may always exist, these people who hurt others should never be in a position of power over anyone's life. Paris Hilton's story caused me to look up other videos trying to hear survivors stories and as hard as it is to hear the stories, it's the least I can do...to listen.. and show my support. And be there in person when the time comes for everyone to come together in a really big way.
@@Spida_Chapplliinn While hearing this stories are quite hard on me in many different ways, I was in an abusive relationship for 7 years with my boys dad. I finally escaped, took my kids and never looked back. I got lucky. Not many women get so lucky. I have PTSD but it has gotten a little more bearable over the last few years and I am able to finally speak openly about sensitive topics without getting too many flashbacks myself. That's the hard part for me, the flashbacks that take you away for a few mins and then in turn, generally ruins the whole day. But every morning when I wake up, it's a new day. I try to remind people of that. It takes courage to survive and make it out. It's not easy and won't be easy after.
I hope Paris continues down this line of activism and also puts her resources towards helping vulnerable children and teens. No child deserves to be abused.
As this was going on i was at the girls campus at Provo canyon school in Utah they forced and demanded all windows to be fogged because we held out help signs on the windows while we saw protesters around the school they had us stay in our rooms and were not alowed outside because drowns flew over the cottages and courtyard and on my cottage Provo lightening each time we saw them setting up the drones by the creek we asked to go out side so we could show the true "PCS" and scream for help each time the sate called on the tablets we would shout "fake for the state" and ever sense that the staff have been quitting fast and kids are being pulled out by their parents and that school is at the last strike and are barely able to stay open because the dont have the legal amout of staff working there i just want to say thank you so much for speaking up and helping us the ones who are and were there now there was a manager lorna and she was the most disgusting person she told us she was there for the pay and told us it was our fault we were touched by peers and staff she later quit in october
Well done all of you my god I could feel all your pain mead me cry . I pray they close down them schools here our kids voices bcoz our voices where not here’d ❤️🙏🏼
Thank you, more children will now hopefully be spared from abuse. So many correction schools in Utah need to be shut down permanently. One thing I didn’t get is when the news reporter said, “Hopefully these practices will be stopped today”. I’m sorry, since when is sexually, mentally and physically abusing children a practice. Last time I checked these are illegal crimes in the USA. And sadistic, disturbingly and down right evil.
I hope more students will come forward. God protect all abused students and justice be served. If this was Paris D.J party more people would've attended for party, meet and greet but here I don't see thousands of people to support. Those people who came forward to speak their truth I respect them. Hats off to Paris for her courageous action. Lots of love, respect, healing and peace to Paris and all kids who were abused. ✝️💖✌️🙏
I was there in 2014 I was punched In the face by a grown ass man I was restrained by 3 grown men because they where piling on a fucking 10 year old kid named edwardo I was locked in a room for 2 because of that shit if you love your kids do not fall for the school districts tricks pcs staff striped me naked like I was a prisoner and had to cough and squat in front of grown men it’s like there preparing you for prison life ...
I don’t know if I could go back to the program I was in Utah. I’m already there every single night anyways in my nightmares. That place seems like a cartoon at this point
students and "patients" can leave. Prisoners can not. I was locked in there. I never was convicted of any crime but I had all my constitutional rights taken away. How is this legal to do to someone under 18 but totally illegal to do to someone 18+?
It’s legal In Utah why you think they sent all us california and Washington DC kids there u can ask any kid whose been to jail then go to Provo jail is way better!! Provo doesn’t give you a realse date u can stay there up till 21 if you dnt complete the progress and deemed unfit adult they can send u to adult programs I met kids there where there for 5+ years about to age out the program
These types of places are fu*ked up I was in a National Guard 'Challenge Programs' in Missouri, graduated in 2000, just to get my GED and bypass the 15 college credits required for GED to get in the Marines (I wasnt in trouble with the law) it was crazier than actual Marine Corps bootcamp (which I have also been through). There was stuff at the Challenge Program that would not of been acceptable in Marine Corps boot camp, abusive. There have been several reports of abuse and hazing at Challenge Programs, and the staff (cadre) are ex military. There was waaaay darker and stranger things going on at the Challenge Program I was in that I don't want to say, just think government weird shit, and these are teenagers I wonder how many of these types of places are out there.
@Moab Man are you dumb? She OBVIOUSLY meant the school. Just admit you hate her already we all know what she meant she didn’t need to put the schools full name on the song. Maybe there’s not enough room. Smh
YOU GO PARIS! KEEP FIGHTING! I AM ROOTING FOR YOU! Hey Paris do us a favor and shut down Dr. Phil for even suggesting this CRAPSHOT places. Anyone who supports sending kids to these schools needs to be actual parents to these kids. Half of them could have been friends of mine. Had a friend disappear because his dad threaten to send him to these places because he was gay. I wish I could have turned back the clock and saved my best friend from this kind of hell
does anyone have new information about what is going on there? are the victims being pulled out by their parents? are the staff quitting? anyone recently released from them? is CPS or law enforcement getting involved? Has any LE or state official investigated them? Does anyone have news from the inside?
It’s very hard to get your parents to believe you your already sent there for bad behavior I was there for a year when I was 14-15 I tried telling my parents over and over what was going on and my Therapist would just say that doesn’t happe. I can assure you blah blah it wasn’t till I begged over and over on my 1 hour private phone call after being there for almost a year I was done I begged over and over till my parents finally pulled me from the program that place was horrible I’m 26 now and I still have dreams of that place...
It seems a little like getting "interviews" with scientologists...a closed system thrives on a small group of like-minded "power people" to maintain image & keep negativity squashed...🤷
Abusers!!! I hope Paris does shut them down. They are trying to say different owners ya right! I don’t believe them. I hope they get put under a microscope now and parents wise up to the psycho babble bs.
Well you’re not telling us at all anything about that school nothing. Nothing about what they did to the kids what is this song blocked by RU-vid or something
Someone tell me is USA save Is USA Fit for leaving there People complain all the time about rape, murder, kidnapping, or theft. How can you live in a place you can’t feel safety all the time Thanks god I love how save I feel in my country in my house or outside even at 2 3 clock thank you my government for that ❤️❤️❤️🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦
Its amazing how these women celebrity's like Kim and Paris who lived in popularity for years. . After years of partying. Photos. Posing and showing every part of the body . Now all they have left is the " misery card".. they didn't seem that miserable back then jumping in and out limos going to the next party or photoshoot
I find it odd that she has publicly spoke out about wearing a mask ,but not once was she wearing a mask. I feel for all those in this piece that were in one way abused. I personally feel Paris Hilton is a media glam that will take advantage of anyone to stay relevant.
I was wondering...but figure she can afford to be tested a lot, and perhaps prefers to wear the mask off-camera, knowing people will want to see her REAL face. I'm sure she is taking precautions.
She's had SUCH a difficult life...lol. How did she wind up there? Was she an out of control teen? I'm guessing that her parents okayed it, no kidnapping related police reports?
@paint kitty What a strange assumption...converges on bizarre...I never even spanked my kids...But they did always have rules and ramifications... Thus, they were never as far-gone as the people in this situation.
Survivors? Did anyone die? If yes then why wasnt this place shut down a long time ago? If no one died then why are you using the term (survivors)? I do not doubt that there were some sort of abuse in the school. I was in fact abused in school however that staff has since gone and laws have changed to protect children. Im not going to go stand in front of the school with signs.
Wow. Okay...you asked"if no one died then why are you using the term survivor?" How could a dead person be called a survivor? A survivor is someone who escaped death or survived a traumatic event. A person who has died is a victim, a person who survives is a survivor.
@Don Macuarro Bullshit. I'm on the right and many of us have been talking about it for year, under this administration there have been more done for victims of abuse than any before. Look at how the left major media ignore all the stories.
