Victory Forge Military Academy is the same as Southeastern Military Academy

In December 2009, Weierman decided to change the name for Victory Forge to Southeastern Military Academy. Nothing about the school has changed, except the name. Even their website is the same (save for a new URL).

Warring

People may want to head over to Wikipedia and see the warring going on between Weirman and the editors at Wikipedia. Apparently, Alan is using the same accusatory and whiny tactics he has used on the police and the regulators to force Wikipedia to change their story on this child abusing facility. What Alan is incapable on understanding is that in this new digital age, his rants will not work. So to stop his cry baby tactics, he has been warned that any additional warring or defacing the Victory Forge article will get his IP blocked forever. Since that threat, Alan has been a good little boy and has stayed away (and has asked Molly) to stay away from Wikipedia as well.

So now if you want to hear the truth, head over to Wikipedia.

Moral and Ethic - Not

Here is an interesting twist on the story we have been communicating to everybody. Apparently Molly and Alan and their kids have been telling the world that Southeastern Military Academy is not the same as Victory Forge. They have even been vocal and threatening towards Wikipedia and their editors since all evidence and information points towards the facts that SEMA and VF are one and the same place. Yet Al has decided to twist the truth (see a common theme here - he does that all the time) and claim that SEMA is not VF. He claims that this is one of the top boarding schools in the country, yet this is not the case. He claims to help parents and students, yet this is not the case.

So Al, you claim to teach the students moral and ethics. Don't you think you should try following it yourself first?

Another Blast from the Past

Very interesting newspaper story published by the Akron Beacon Journal on 3/11/1992. This story shows a pattern of abuse and then hiding it that continues to this day. Reader of this blog will see similarities between this 1992 case and the ones that have been occurring at Victory Forge. Now don't you think that if this abusive and manipulative behaviour has been allegedly occurring for 17+ years, there has to be some truth in it?

BRINKHAVEN KEPT QUIET STARK YOUTH HOME DIDN'T REPORT 16-YEAR-OLD SUMMIT GIRL'S ALLEGATIONS IN `86, AS REQUIRED BY OHIO LAW, WHEN SHE CHARGED SHE HAD SEX WITH FOUNDER'S SON-IN-LAW
DAVID KNOX, Beacon Journal staff writer

Stark County officials were unaware of complaints of sexual abuse brought nearly six years ago by a 16-year-old Summit County girl living at the Brinkhaven Homes for Youth because the homes' officials failed to alert authorities. Such notification is required by Ohio law.

The allegations were investigated by local police in August 1986, about two months after the girl left Brinkhaven and her relatives complained to Summit County Children Services, said Lawrence Township Police Chief Roy E. Mosely II.

The girl charged that she had sex with Alan Weierman, a Brinkhaven staff member, more than 30 times between August 1985 and June 1986, when she returned home, according to Lawrence Township police reports. Weierman is the son-in-law of Brinkhaven's founder, the Rev. William Brink, who is being investigated by a county grand jury because of allegations that he sexually abused two former residents. Weierman denied the allegations during the 1986 investigation. He could not be reached to comment Tuesday, in Fort Pierce, Fla., where he is director of Brinkhaven's home for unwanted children.

Mosely said his investigation found `sufficient probable cause' to prosecute Weierman, including a polygraph test given the girl and a calendar she kept of the alleged sexual encounters. However, no charges were filed because Massillon chief city prosecutor John Simpson indicated there was not enough evidence to corroborate the girl's allegations.

William Brink told police the charges were groundless, saying the girl admitted to fantasizing about Weierman in March, when she was questioned after talking to other residents, Mosely said. Brink also produced letters from residents stating the girl `had made the incident up.'

But another difficulty the investigation encountered was `the length of time that had elapsed' between the girl's departure from Brinkhaven and when police were called in, Mosely said in an Oct. 7, 1986, letter explaining to Summit County Children Services officials why the prosecutor was not filing charges.

That time gap would not have existed, according to Stark County Human Services officials, if Brinkhaven officials, instead of her family, had reported the allegations to authorities.

Judee Genetin, chief legal counsel for the department, said Ohio law requires all child care facilities to report `any suspicions' of abuse or neglect immediately. Genetin also questioned why Brinkhaven officials had questioned the girl and other residents about the allegations. `They're not supposed to investigate the allegations,' she said. `We do that.' Program director Ronald Lewis said the county would have been very interested in learning about the allegations in 1986 because officials already were very concerned about the number of complaints of excessive discipline and other problems at Brinkhaven during the mid-1980s.

Jon Weierman Part 2


We have talked about Jon Weierman before. He is one of the son's of Al Weierman and is an instructor at VF. Allegedly, most of the former students we have interviewed have claimed that Jon was the source of a lot of the abuse going on in the school. He supposedly has a very violent disposition and since his Dear Dad runs the school, Jon abuses his status over there. A few former employees also had the same thing to say about this disturbed man. In psychological terms, Jon is very insecure and is on a power trip. Also, it has come to our attention (and this needs to be further investigated), but Jon was also a burnout and a former drug addict. If that behavior is still going on, that would be cause to remove him from the services of VF. We are looking into these allegations and will update as we get more information. Anybody with additional information on this man, get back to us.


Jon, we are watching you.

United States Commerce Association

We have been meaning to debunk another of Weierman's untruths for a long time, but did not get around to it. Well here it is now - better later than never.



Victory Forge and their 3 boosters (yes that is all they have) have been going around and telling the world that VF has received an award from the United States Commerce Association (USCA). Before we jump to discuss what this award really means, here is what the USCA does.

This is an organization which is supported by its members. So VF pays dues to the USCA. In return, USCA promotes its members with public relations, advertising and marketing. They then give out these "Best of Local Business" awards to showcase their members. These awards are given to their members and are basically nothing but marketing ploys. Also, the USCA is a for-profit organization. So good people, do not buy this other lie and gimmick that these folks at VF are selling.

What does this award really mean? It means that VF paid their dues to the USCA who in turn is fulfilling their mission to promote their business. They do this by using the term award, which means absolutely nothing.

Try again Weierman.

VF is hurting

We would imagine that folks have finally caught on to the untruths perpetuated by the Weiermans. Victory Forge, the “teenage prison” which they run been rightly accused of child abuse and other charges. There is so much more they are hiding and continue to hide, but this blog and questions from other potential parents have finally taken a toll on them and Victory Forge.

Now to compensate for this loss, they are opening up their so called program to day students. These are the same types of kids who are in the boarding program, but the difference is that the day kids leave the facilities to go back home at the end of the day.

This opens up a whole new bunch of questions.

- VF has stated that the kids enrolled in the program are “bad” and need to be “locked” up. So the day students would be just as “bad” but they do not need to be locked up? Smells like another money grubbing ploy.
- Why would parents send their kids to this program, which provides no education? Would a recognized high school / junior high not do a better job of educating their kids?
- So when a day student returns home, they are free to do whatever they want, right? So what is the value proposition being offered here?

Parents – beware. This is just another approach by these hucksters to convince you that your child is bad and needs their help. When you are your weakest, they will rip you off by offering you false hope and promises. Do your bank account and your child a favor – stay far away from these child molesters.

Help out a cadet trapped at VF

We have received several emails from concerned individuals about one particular teen who is trapped at VF. Apparently, foster parents get reimbursed by the states for sending their foster kids to this school. From our understanding, these foster parents make money by sending the kids to this place. Reeks of perverse incentive, does it not. The foster parents see a money making idea; enroll their kids at VF in the guise that they are bad kids; make cash; repeat cycle.

So there is one student at VF who has been put in there by his mom in spite of the fact that there is nothing wrong with him. His relatives, friends, and other families have pleaded with the mom to reconsider what she is doing, but the financial rewards are too great for her that she is willing to sell her child to this evil place.

We have approached a parent who has helped us get advice from a few good attorneys. We have asked him to help us get this kid out of Victory Forge. The parent has offered to pass on the information to an attorney who will investigate the law and see what can be done about this kid.

We will provide more details as we receive them. In the interim, I hope more people are realizing this place is more than meets the eye. They are in it for a buck and will take some good kids and instead of stating that these kids do not need their help, will embark on this awful journey with them. These are kids for crying out loud - hell has a place reserved for people like the Weirmans and those who will send their kids to this hell hole for monetary gains.

More to follow....
