| Sask.,Canada, Many people were mistreated while they lived in residential schools aboriginals. After many years and a court battle thousands of people who were involved received settlements, did any of these victims ever received anything for there suffering or were they replaced and forgotten |

| @Silver Fang - The Pennhurst residents were relocated and many are still alive - some living independently. That announcer is John Facenda. He worked at WCAU Philly, but achieved his greatest fame as the voice of NFL Films. His voice was great. |

| I wonder what happened to all those people filmed in this report. The youngest ones could well still be alive. Also, who was the commentator in the last installment? |

| My uncle was a patient here until he was 15. My grandfather, against my Grandma's wishes, put him in Pennhurst. He was physically challenged but his IQ was above average for his age. All because he couldn't walk, he was sent there. |

| @Stephane - depending on their level of function, they were transferred either to community living situations or other institutions. The other video here With a Voice comes Understanding talks a bit about that. |

| do we know what has happened to all of these poor children now? I first heard about this from a TV Show called Ghost Adventures. I saw one patient talk about her time there. |

| My mother was born in 1964 with epilepsy. My grandfather wanted to place my mother in this facility against my grandmother's wishes. I can't imagine what would have happened to my beautiful, intelligent mother if she had been condemned to this hell. |

| As a child I visited Pennhurst in the early 70's. I was left in the parking lot with my father as my mother and cousin went in to visit a family friend's son that was placed there after his mother died and his father could not care for him. My memory includes screams from every building..horrible |

| At the age of 7-12 in the early 60's I was a patient at Traverse City State Hospital, in Travese City, Michigan. As an Adult I have been interested in comparing what went on behind closed doors at Travese City Satate Hospital with other state intitutions. |
