I was at GCS from 1968 to 1976. The animals there were taken care of better than us that's for sure. I remember Zagarella too. He was a bastard and I'm glad he's dead. Also I wonder where Richard Hill is living...??
I read this on line - two men who raped and killed went to Green Chimneys and their names are Philip Zagarella and Eric Napoletano. It was a long time ago that they were there, in the 1970s. Brutal RTCs like Green Chimneys and the ones you see in this film make people like them even worse. No more hiding your head in the sand and protecting abusers like Dr. Samuel B. Ross Jr. and others who abuse kids and who excuse it by not saying anything. Many survivors are now talking.
"History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people." MLK Jr.
Green Chimneys of Brewster NY is another abusive RTC. Kids have been beaten; food witheld and some kids were so injured they had to go to emergency. Why is it bad to maltreat animals there but they maltreat kids? Cruel people acting with impunity...sick programs defrauding public.

If we refuse to open our eyes and our minds, murdering kids in residential placements will continue with impunity.
So sad!
