Official preview with my next guest, Meg Appelgate. @megappelgate

@VUsuxballs @ShawnRyan762 For sure

@ShawnRyan762 @megappelgate Seems like the world runs on the abuse and blood of children. 🤬

@se59512 Thank you! I see you, survivor.

@megappelgate I’m still listening and I am so pissed off at what was done to you! I’m so sorry. I am also a survivor of CSA (not intitutional) and adopted.

Thank you for your support!

They Strap You Down and Inject You With WHAT?! 😳 Continue watching the FULL episode with Meg Appelgate at 12:30 PM CST. @megappelgate

“It’s prison straight up, there’s what we call the QR. It’s the quiet room. It’s a padded room with a door that locks from the outside and a bulletproof glass that’s this big. You misbehave, they take you down in a restraint. They pull down your pants, they stick a needle in your a** and shoot you up, and make you completely pass out. … If they didn’t calm down, the nurse would just come over, pull their pants down, and give them what we called booty juice.” @megappelgate

@ElizCPhillips @ShawnRyan762 Thank you for your support!

This one will be another must-watch. Thank you @ShawnRyan762 and @megappelgate for bringing this information to the public so survivors’ stories are heard. Time for a reckoning in the troubled teen industry. Parents pay attention 👀

@karmaGFY @ShawnRyan762 Oh wow, thank you for doing that work! Exposing them is so crucial!

@ShawnRyan762 @megappelgate Thanks Shawn. It’s so prevalent in these facilities. Local governments support and fund these horrible facilities. They help the CEOs and management. I did investigations at these facilities - two big ones in PA. It’s unbelievable.

@that1gurl2025 @ShawnRyan762 Yeah there are MANY in Utah

@ShawnRyan762 @megappelgate Utah had a program similar to this. May still have it. Idk. Ship the teens off to a wilderness behavioral camp.

@Emmy101263 @ShawnRyan762 It is!! I see you survivor

@ShawnRyan762 @megappelgate Is this on the troubled teen industry?! I went to CEDU Rocky Mountain Acadamy 1998-2000. Would love to talk

@Algorithmknows @ShawnRyan762 Oh wow, yeah I bet there is a lot of similarities!

@ShawnRyan762 @megappelgate At the start of that, I thought she was talking about my experience in Marine Corps boot camp. #SrmperFi!

@TSaravanos123 @ShawnRyan762 I see you survivor

@ShawnRyan762 @megappelgate I went to academy of ivy ridge and it was the worst experience of my life

Super honored to be featured on @ShawnRyan762 last month!

The proprietors of a now-shuttered Southwest Missouri boarding school are facing a new lawsuit by a former student alleging trafficking across several states, coerced labor, isolation and sexualized punishment while she was underage. #moleg #mogov missouriindependent.com/2026/04/08/law…

Well, would you look at that...I got my account back! 🙌 Now if @Meta would only give me my account back they stole for no reason, that'd be lovely...20 years of memories vanished. #metasucks #facebooksupport #help

I notice a surprising lack of coverage into the tragic and very preventable death of Biruk Silvers. He was an innocent teen who spent his last months in an abusive Troubled Teen Industry "treatment program". They recklessly placed him on Lexapro against his parents wishes knowing it increases risk of suicide in the first few months. Worse of all, they could see his warning signs of suicide for months and did nothing. Shut down the facility, ban SSRI prescription to minors and increase safety standards for future facilities. #JusticeForBirukSilvers

@wolfiecomedy @unsilenced_now @ParisHilton I see you survivor 🫶🏼

@unsilenced_now @ParisHilton @megappelgate I went to discovery academy and this doesn’t surprise me

This is Biruk Silvers. He was sent to #DiscoveryRanch for help. Instead, he lost his life. Here's what we know: 🔹 Staff allegedly knew about dangerous games like “Space Monkey” but allowed them to continue. 🔹 His parents voiced concerns, but intervention came too late. 🔹 Biruk’s medication was recently changed, possibly impacting his mental and physical state. Biruk deserved a safe space to heal. It’s time to hold the #TroubledTeenIndustry accountable. Share his story. Demand accountability. #JusticeForBiruk @ParisHilton @megappelgate

@unsilenced_now @ParisHilton My heart breaks for this poor boy and his family!
