*Content warning: distressing topics, child abuse, death, child sex abuse, psychological and physical violence of children, cultic abuse, Institutional child abuse, ‘troubled teen industry’, TTI, suicidal ideation, murder.  Season 24 of Something Was Wrong shares the harrowing truths of international Institutional Child Abuse (often called the ‘troubled teen industry’) through powerful interviews with survivors of wilderness therapy programs, therapeutic boarding schools, and other institutions around the world.  These firsthand accounts expose an alarming pattern of abuse, neglect, and trauma disguised as treatment, alongside testimony from parents who entrusted these programs with their children. With expert insights from leading voices in the children’s rights advocacy space and adolescent mental health, Season 24 explores how programs have operated in the shadows for decades and why their harmful practices continue today.  *Free + Confidential Resources + Safety Tips:  somethingwaswrong.com/resources    *Sources: Former student at Utah school for troubled teens backs claims of abuse made by Paris Hilton, FOX13, News Utah https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CSYxaQq8OE  Trails Carolina camper's death ruled a homicide, FOX8 WGHP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm97SeyZ8xg  Troubled teen school facing lawsuit over employee’s alleged sexual misconduct, ABC4 Utah  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CD0a1PdiQU  Five Facts About the Troubled Teen Industry, American Bar Association  https://www.americanbar.org/groups/litigation/resources/newsletters/childrens-rights/five-facts-about-troubled-teen-industry/   What You Need to Know About the Troubled Teen Industry, The Law Offices of Lisa Kane Brown https://lisakanebrown.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-troubled-teen-industry  *SWW S23 Theme Song & Artwork:  Glad Rags: https://www.gladragsmusic.com/  The S24 cover art is by the Amazing Sara Stewart Follow Something Was Wrong: Website: somethingwaswrong.com  IG: instagram.com/somethingwaswrongpodcast TikTok: tiktok.com/@somethingwaswrongpodcast  Follow Tiffany Reese: Website: tiffanyreese.me  IG: instagram.com/lookieboo
