Whether others are held accountable, I think, largely depends on the media

If the media doesn’t push the “what the **** kind of school was that” angle it’ll die

I doubt anyone from the board of education or code enforcement wants it portrayed as anything but depraved parenting and psychopathic behavior. We’re always going to occasionally get these Ted Bundy type of stories. The difference here is Ted Bundy’s House of Horrors wasn’t listed as a “school” on an official website. From what I can see the media isn’t hyping up how insane that is.

I imagine that some religious organization or other has a vested interest in downplaying criticisms of homeschooling, so that might also be a factor. That's just conjecture obviously.

Several neighbors recalled an incident several months ago in which a number of children were out in front of the house late at night working under floodlights to put sod in the yard.

“That was kind of weird, all four of them were on the ground rolling out sod,” said Wendy Martinez, 41, who lives around the corner from the family. A woman who appeared to be the children’s mother was standing in front of the home, in an archway, watching, Martinez recalled.
****ing Christ that’s straight out of the Munsters. I’m not a detective but I figure they might want to check what’s under there.

in Cali a way you can home school is to file your house as legally a private school

the state doesn't oversee private schools, they probably should to some capacity

but anyway that's why it's listed as a "school"

I guess you’re right.

I got a little manic there.
