About the Book

Civil Escape is a personal account by a survivor of California's 1996 civil commitment law for sex offenders. Using a fraudulent treat and release scheme the program has warehoused over a thousand men and women under the ruse of therapy. After 16 years in forced therapy the author was released after two concurring psychologists found that he no longer met criteria. Civil Escape is a thorough investigation and insight into sex offender treatment, judicial corruption, and therapy malfeasance. The book peels back the layers of deceit and the behind-the-scenes immoral conduct by California counties to keep men incarcerated for life despite the premise of therapy completion. Does sex offender therapy have any validity and is it effective? Are therapists who work for the Department of State Hospitals really these mavericks of mental health? Are these offenders really sexually violent predators? Discover the lies of a system out of control and the political football that no one wishes to address. Why do 80% of staff quit after they discover that they have been tricked into thinking this was a viable program to assist sex offenders? Civil commitment laws are America's new premise to lock men and women up for life for what they might do in the future. Where will this all lead and are you the next person to discover that your foible classifies as a pseudo mental illness that requires forced therapy. A shocking, true account of psychotherapy that is easy for society to turn a blind eye because sex is a subject few people are comfortable with, let alone having empathy for someone who is the pariah of the community. Take a closer look and find out who these men and women are, and then examine your own human nature and sexual habits.
