Former students share harrowing stories of life inside Alabama's worst religious private school

5. This is seriously horrifying on every level.

This part says it all though on how the scumbags were able to get away with it:

"The case has become a glaring example of how it's possible to exploit the loophole in Alabama law that allows church schools to operate without regulation or oversight. As the trial looms, several former students of Restoration Youth Academy and Saving Youth Foundation have given AL.com extensive accounts of abuse they say was rampant."

That loophole needs to be closed. These religious assholes cannot continue to get away with the shit they get away with, and especially get tax exempt status at that. It's truly fucked up.
