I have been following the horrible happenings at the Judge Rotenberg Educational Center in Canton since 2007, when Mother Jones News did a cover story on this place.
I invite you to call them up and ask for a tour. You'll get a 'dog and pony' show, but at least it will give you some context.
Several follow-ups to the cover story were made during this year.
Here is a set of links for the shocking stories of the inhumane practices in this place, licensed by the state of Ma. I thought we were through with torture when we quit dunking the old ladies for being witches, and pressing the old guys with stones for being warlords.
