Royal Peak / Royal Gorge Academy News
| In January 2007 Royal Gorge
Academy, previously known as Royal Peak Academy, director, Randall
Hinton was arrested on multiple counts of third-degree assault and for
reckless endangerment. In
Colorado, that means he placed another person, in this case, at risk of serious
bodily injury.”
Hinton was seen on
tape admitting to pepper spraying a child, Kerry "Layne" Brown,
multiple times per day for eight or nine months. Kerry Layne Brown
died June 6, 2006. He suffered for years, dealing with
post-traumatic stress disorder resulting from the months of abuse he
endured during his stay at Tranquility Bay in Jamaica.

UPDATE
A documentary about Tranquility Bay aired
in Europe. The narrator said:
"The man who tortured Layne was Randall Hinton. The
following is an account of what Hinton said in an interview with
reporters:"
 “Violence … as in violent kids? Violent staff? Violent
programs? Ah, ya." ... he was pepper-sprayed by
myself and by Jay Kay. I think we were the only ones who could
actually pepper-spray students. I think I can remember Kerry Layne
being pepper-sprayed more than once in a day. I know he was
pepper-sprayed more than two times in a day. I don’t think it would
have been more than three times.”
“... And from somebody on the outside looking in I would say
it was abusive. For somebody that stayed with him 24/7 I would say I
received as much abuse as he did as a staff. But that’s what we’re
getting paid to do.”
“Restraints could be used - mechanical devices could be used
- pepper-spray could be used to gain control of your child. It’s
just a job that, that helps people. Instead of the pizza coming to
you we’ll come and pick the pizza up and take it and let it get cook
for a while, in a sense. Until it’s ready to come home and then you
get a brand new hot pizza.” |
