33. The “Shocking” Truth - Part #6 - “To Me, It’s an Experiment.”
Manage episode 302418183 series 2866822
The ban, the reversal, and Tobinworld.
Judge Rotenberg Center in Canton, Massachusetts is a day and residential school treating children from as young as five, all the way through adulthood with intellectual disabilities, psychiatric issues and those on the autism spectrum since 1971.
JRC has been surrounded in controversy with allegations of abuse since it was founded by Matthew Israel.
Something that experts and the United Nations deem as torture. Something the FDA banned but is still being used as a treatment today, the Graduated Electronic Decelerator.
