Tranquility Bay - WWASP Behaviour Modification Cam

TRANQUILITY BAY

Exotic school names like Tranquility Bay and Paradise Cove and

beachside locations in countries like Jamaica, Fiji and Western Samoa suggest that troubled-teen students will find an idyllic and understanding academic paradise where they can reform. Instead the pupils behind the schools' barbed wire fences have been subjected to abuse and half of the schools have been forced to close.



Tranquility Bay looks at the private reform-school industry for

wayward American teens and the unhappy parents who are increasingly speaking ut about the practices in these institutions. It is a growing industry and affluent parents pay up to $25, 000 a year in school fees.



The World Wide Association of Specialty Programs (WWASP) is the

leading provider of behaviour modification programs for American

teens. At the helm of a company which earns $95 million per year is Robert Browning Lichfield, a Utah resident and Mormon, who has built his fortune through the numerous WWASP programs that are located throughout the world. He is in charge of a virtual empire of schools where complaints of physical and sexual abuse are allegedly ignored by American authorities.
