What if the very rehabilitation program you trusted to save your loved one from addiction was built on controversial and unverified methods? This episode pulls back the curtain on Narconon, a drug treatment program with deep ties to Scientology, founded by William "Bill" Benitez after being inspired by L. Ron Hubbard's teachings. We scrutinize the origins and operations of Narconon, questioning the safety and efficacy of its practices, which are often administered by staff members lacking proper medical training.
Join us as we uncover the questionable practices and troubling statistics behind Narconon rehab centers. From inconsistent success rates to flawed studies and misleading data, we leave no stone unturned in exposing the program's dubious credibility. We investigate the failed attempt to establish a facility in Bouquet Canyon, California, and the regulatory violations that came to light, further casting doubt on the integrity of Narconon's operations.
