Episode 07 : The White House : Marianna, FL
Schools are typically perceived as a sanctuary for young minds to flourish and prepare for adulthood. Children devote their time and effort to learning, hoping to become the best version of themselves. The responsibility of guiding and nurturing their growth lies with the faculty, who are entrusted to act in the best interests of their pupils. Sometimes though, the teachers become the enemy.

Crimes against minor children should never have a “statute of limitations” 💔
So that's over a hundred years of kids being abused and murdered and nobody did anything.
So many generations before us were taught to say nothing, to report nothing, to act as if violence against children was acceptable. This is to our detriment - we have made little progress. TY Jiles for keeping this history alive.
Never Forget. 💪 😤
If you don't do anything about a bad situation, you can only expect more of the same.
Well said.
I know from the moment I saw the first few seconds of this video it was about Dozier. What kind of adults could do these horrible things to children and not one employee blow the whistle. So sad.
The staff might of had fear of retaliation, they were afraid of suffering the same fate as the kids did...no excuse, but it's possible. It IS very sad...
Back in those days this went on everywhere! Catholic schools were some of the worst offenders. Any people existing outside the "norm" were free game to use and abuse!
All I can think of is retribution. It’s no excuse but it might explain why. This is extremely sad.
@@fanaticat1I very much agree.
I can’t remember hearing of this one! I thought , dang, I can’t believe I missed this in all these years. Im glad I know, but wish it never occurred. Tell you what!
FLORIDA may be the number one mentioned state in the majority of CRIME HORROR WEIRD stories!
Jiles, you always do such a great job shining light on these atrocities, while paying homage to those affected. Thank you so much for all you do!
My uncle spent a period of time at this school. He has some really dark stories. He just visited us after going back down there for a reunion with some of the surviving boys and touring the memorial that was built. He’s also participating in a book that’s being written on the school (as a source) along with some other survivors. If you met my uncle, you’d never think he spent time in the Dozier school, he’s a super positive glass half full type of person. He has always said he was one of the few lucky ones.
He said the old, industrial style fans were so loud when they were operating, it would drown out the screams coming from the boys when they went to the white house.
Wow! Your statement about kids being our most precious resource was so right. Wonderfully put.
This place was hell on earth for these boys. I can’t believe it took that long for these boys to be saved & protected.
I heard the movie Sleepers is about this school.
This one has always broken my heart. I can't believe it took so damn long for the state to do anything at all.
It's about boys and male youths.
I can believe it. Typical. Just like the State Ran CPS... it's like they always go after the wrong people... and the real abuse gets brushed under the rug
Ikr, opened in 1890 and state only took over in 1994. Over 100 years 🤯
Yeah like that is so crazy to me
The fact that they knew things were going on there, something should have been done a long time ago
This eats at me, knowing they haven't done all they can do to recover the bodies. I still don't understand how everyone responsible for the safety of these children have not been held accountable, thats a long list.
They didn't compensate the survivors or their families either. Horrific.
This was hell house Jiles. Corporal punishment is getting a butt spanked. Not being beating bloody. I so can't believe this awful place was open so long.
This reminds me of that movie SLEEPERS. That is a great movie I think I'm going to watch that tonight
How is it I've never in my 38yrs heard of this horrifying happening that was still in existence in 2011? I swear this country hates kids
I’m 70 and have followed this type of horror all my life, AND I missed this one! 🫣 I’m ashamed. I can say those years were bad for me, but that’s inexcusable!
The tragic stories taking place in Ireland are very similar, so our country isn’t the only one. Hope you can find the Irish shame on YT.
One of the most toughest country hard core artists that ever pick up a guitar was David Allen Coe...many of the songs & lyrics that he wrote, diffently makes sense now. In one of his songs he mentioned about the industrial schools that he was held in.. I was raised in a foster home my self, I personal seen what comes out of them, and also I can recall many times the Alduts would threaten to send boys up to McLaren home for boys in Oregon. That's all it took to change a attitude.
Oh we talk the talk about caring about kids but we don’t walk the walk.
@@numberone5680Yes, there are several TH-cams on those gawd awful “Magdalene Homes” and yes, the abuse was horrific and yes, the Catholic Church has a hella lot of blood on their hands. SHAME ON THEM!
Thank you Jiles for covering these tough cases for your viewers. You do an Amazing job
I read the Nickel Boys and it was gut wrenching. You do an amazing job, capturing the emotion of the story.
It's unbelievable that no one has been charged for the abuse and murders committed.
You are a gift to us!!!
Not to take away from the tragedy these children experiences don’t forget there are still “reform” schools & wilderness camps that are torturing “troubled” kids to this day. Even those these kids are “troubled” Don’t mean they’re not still our babies!! Stop torturing kids in the name of reform! Nothing good comes from these places. Signed, a formerly troubled child.
I watched a documentary in which 2 former residents (inmates) of the Dozier School for Boys were interviewed regarding their experiences. The stories of abuse they recounted were nightmarish, sexual abuse from both the teachers, older boys and stronger boys. They showed an area where they claimed the bodies of the victims of the school were buried but to my knowledge the area still has never been examined nor any attempt made to exhume and identify bodies buried in that area.
It’s my understanding that the parents of some boys sent there never saw their child again and no explanation was ever give regarding their fate, which in my mind means they have no record of death and no headstone. No one cared so the administrators were free to inflict whatever harm or punishment they wanted. Absolute power…and we all know what absolute power leads to!
What concerns me, are there such places of horror operating today?!? 11:00
I fucking LOVE this channel so much, Its definitely in my top 3 all time TH-cam favorites! I've learned SO much IMPORTANT history watching it..... This kind of stuff needs to be included in high school and even middle school curriculum. It's hard to understand why today's social problems exist without knowing about things like boarding schools and towns like Rosewood. Erasing that from history, separates the problem from the cause in the collective minds of society. You can't fix it if you aren't looking at it correctly. To think things like poverty and class, and their consequences like crime, are the fault of the victims, is just continuing abuse.
You should look into Generational Abuse. I think it's be right up your alley..
VERY well put!! 🎯🎯🎯🎯👍🏾
I live in Florida and I have been following this story since the white house boys became a group and told what was going on and what happened to them!
I hope the families and survivors get some closure! Any staff that's still alive should be jailed!
This, is so horrific and truly disturbing that NOBODY was ever prosecuted!!!
Just terrible 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬!
From everything I’ve read and heard about this place it was a hell hole and the fact no one did anything for so long shows how corrupt the system was. It’s my sincere hope all remains are found and put to rest properly so the families can have closure then I hope they level that building to the ground as I believe it’s still standing. Just horrific!
Mr Jiles telling us all about somewhere sinister to help us get through that dreaded midweek hump. 🙏🖤✌️
Right! What did we do to deserve him??! ❤😊
No offense to many of your listeners, the minute I heard you say Florida, I knew it was going to be bad so I tightened my seatbelt and hung on for a bumpy ride! I actually saw a documentary on this place with interviews with some of the adults who had been sent there. Thanks Jiles for shedding light on stories that need to be told or retold! By the way, if you think THIS is bad, you should do some research on the Florida, Alabama, Georgia etc, Industrial Schools for COLORED boys! Those make this school look like a posh boarding school!
Those stories would be very sad but need to be told. Poor children that went through the horrendous life there. Yes please if you could Jiles this would be a good story to shed more light on.
Australia 🇦🇺
People seem to assume every awful story is from Florida. "Florida Man" has become a common term.
What many people fail to realize is that Florida has what is known as the Sunshine Law. This allows details of all arrests, etc. to be made available to the public.
Most states do not have such a law in place, and therefore information is limited and "headlines" can't be driven like they are in Florida.
We all know the rest of the 49 are just as bad as we Floridians, but y'all have more privacy laws.
Leave it to government to be like, “We investigated ourselves and we found nothing wrong.”
In the beginning the story reminded me of Lake Alice here in New Zealand where children and vulnerable adults were subjected to absolute misery, but even thjat pales in comparison to Dozier, my god.
It reminds me of the Magdalene laundries in Ireland, except it was girls and young women being abused and treated as slave labor. Absolutely horrific treatment.

@@chellebrown7086 ❤
Thank you for bringing honor to the victims. They should be remembered and this should never happen to children anywhere! Great coverage as always.
So many places like this got away with murder and it was all legal
This one only closed in 2011 🤯🤯
We have technology now that can help solve and recover bodies if they wanted to $$$
The dozier school for boys in marianna was always such an imposing and eerie place. I remember driving by it as a kid and just knowing that bad things must have happened there. I was not surpriaed at all when news broke out about the unmarked graves and the stories of abuse told by the whitehouse boys broke my heart. The buildings are still there...looming and harsh in comparison to the green lawn and moss covered trees. Thank you for covering this topic!
Psychopaths always seek positions of power, especially over the powerless. Anybody in charge of an institution like this is suspect, unless they've been vetted thoroughly. Ideally, there should never be any ONE individual in charge of anything, but rather a committe, from schools like this to whole countries.
Oh am I glad to have you back on track! ❤
Glad to see you back doing these Giles , as much as I love TIM these are a good change of pace with somewhat similar subject matter to keep my interest, keep up the fantastic work
May I ask What is TIM?
what’s even sadder is that there are plenty of places like this i believe to be still open … hard to believe any different when places like this got away w their actions for so long, even to this day
I'm surprised RONDON wants to look more into the graves. HE doesnt seem to care much about history, nor the rights of children.
You are absolutely correct. I was caught off guard when he said that. Ronnie seems much more concerned about wokeness and preparing to run for president than anything else.
"There was no evidence the deaths were caused by staff because we didn't bother looking for it".
I've heard this story...How Terrible and Evil.
Jiles!
Native American boarding schools… video idea ;)
Thanks!
Thanks so much!
Binge watching Somewhere Sinister & This Is Monsters for a few hours now.... totally enthralled, certain times with mouth open, jaw dropping to the floor.
Both channels are terrific btw🤩
Im so glad my great great grandma got her family out of Sanford when my mom was still a baby
I believe a lot of these horrific actions were founded upon (or what gave the excuse from) the ideology of Eugenics which was extremely prevalent in the United States in the early 1900s. Which would also be another layer upon classism. These children came from the lower classes of society and from impoverished backgrounds and in the mind of those elite who were indoctrinated by eugenics such as the founder of Kellogg’s and many of the elites of that time period, would view these children as a waste upon society for being of weak dna and worthy of such treatment. It’s just a thought that came to me while listening to your excellent narration.
Me one minute in: Ah! Florida! Welp- there ya go.
Your explanation is probably more accurate.
@@poutinedream5066 haha yeah I’ve heard of how crazyiness abounds in Florida. 😂
Next time I'm in Atlanta, I'm not drinking the tap water.. The thought of those graves....Thanks for the history and the warning.
Oooh, a new episode!
Did none of the parents ever visit their sons who were living in this hell on earth? I'm not saying they were to blame; it just seems odd that no one cared enough about them until the survivors made it public. I am honestly so disgusted by these revelations, like it wasn't enough to beat them, they had to rape them, too. WTF is _wrong_ with people? 🤬
Mostly the kids that were there were juvenile offenders that were sent there through the court system or whatever version of CPS existed in Florida at the time. I imagine visitation was limited or strongly discouraged maybe
Most were not around
They all need identified. What a horrific story! Great reporting my friend 🤘
The movie Sleepers is a good example of this topic.
This is the most unreal story I have ever heard. It's a nightmare factory
Oh no, just minutes before the announcement of Arthur Dozier I got the hint this was the birth of Dozier School, I can't 😢This is one of the biggest US government oversight failures and exactly why we have to keep exercising our First Amendment right audit our tax dollar expenditures and public staff. Too horrific.
I can't believe it stayed open for so long. Most of the places like this were shut down by the 90's.
That’s still way too long
Oh wow I used to work at this place! Glad to see it getting some coverage!
YES!! So excited for a new episode!! 🔥✨
You told this story well, thank you!
Wow! Thank god nothing like this happens anymore and all of our Juvenile Detention Centers are rarely used and the staff are caring, nurturing, and focused on rehabilitation and not punishment. Pretty sure 99% of all teen trouble makers NEVER reoffend or get arrested ever again. And even if they do, adult prisons are non-violent places of trade learning, mental health awareness, and attention to inmates needs at every level. Yup, ya did good Florida! ( walks away whistling in the dark)
I just saw the interview the author of the "White House" His brother and uncle were there.
I know of a story that happened here in Canada that involves Indigenous children and residential schools run by priest and nuns and funded by the Canadian Federal Government. To date more than 3200 bodies of these children have been found on the school grounds in mass unmarked graves. Not all grounds of these schools have been searched and NO-ONE has been held accountable since the discovery was made in 2018. There are so many shocking discoveries about this and the media in Canada say's very little on the subject due to the shame of Government and their lack of responsibility. More than 150,000 children attended Indian residential schools which many never returned home. First school was opened in 1831 and by 1880 the federal government had adopted an official policy of funding the schools across Canada. They ripped these children from their families put them in these schools to teach them to live like a Canadian white person, and no parent had any choice in the matter. 1,953 of the kids have been Identifies, 477 additional investigating is required and 1,242 students names are not yet known. One of the grounds had the remains of more than `1000 people discovered in just 3 mass graves at 3 locations. Many of these schools are in western Canada. The last school was closed in 1998. The story has so much more to it and I this you JILES would be the perfect person to report on this.
Yep there’s natives coming together to sing and dance to send the souls
They didnt even exume the bodies and yet determined their deaths hadnt been caused by any abuse? Total cover up
Wow as a Canadian this case ! Never heard of this! Thank you Jiles for sharing this ❤
"The good old days."
Thank you Jiles🙏💔 Fabulous intro btw.
Good Morning, Jiles and Fellow Sinisters! 💖
🌞 Good morning!
SHAME SHAME SHAME SHAME SHAME SHAME SHAME SHAME SHAME
I read a book about the white house by Roger Dean Kiser. It is heartbreaking and horrifying what went on there. It may have been a different horrible school.
I love this channel. I'm so glad to see every new video.
There shouldn't ever be a statute of limitations. These people should receive an amount that would last them forever. I know there's nothing that can help with what they went through. If there's anyone who is still alive that worked there they should be put in prison. So they can receive some of the pain and treatment which they had induced on the boys that were there.
How damn sad 😢
riviting..ty sir.
Very good very good very good narrator sharing you to Facebook thank you
I forgot you had this other channel . Have so much to catch up on
Terrific episode. Easy to believe though shocking.
Why haven't they put ground penetrating radar on the site? It would bring up any "recently" dug areas.
The poor kids that went there
So, these freaking pedophiles & murders are just roaming free?
This is an 🤬 disgrace!
Just heartbreaking 😭😭😭😭.
I'm waiting on black wall street to have its story told
It’s coming up.
I shared this on Twitter.
I really enjoy this video can't wait until the next one. I also love your videos on monsters you are a great speaker and the way you present each episode keep up the amazing work your one of my favorite channel's ❤❤❤
Dang! Talk about a failure of justice for these poor boys. How truly horrific. There are real life monsters in this world.
Wow...just wow
Please keep thsi channel up. I honestly like it a lot better than the main channel
Parents should be ashamed of themselves for sending their children there
Somewhere Sinister whoop whoop
Yep like Dr Phil’s ranch . And conversation camps
Places like this still exist, so does the abuse ie: Boys Town
This place is sinister!
A New Episode!
Yes!!
Thanks for entertaining and informing me. Great format..love your work.
I live very remotely, up close (sometimes a little too close) to nature. I’m an antique and in all my years of living with nature I have never seen a paw, a beak, a hoof etc. used by the parents on their offspring to guide or teach them.
Many, many so called “parents” and those acting as parents can’t even meet the bare bones minimal parenting standards set by wild animals. So we learn very early we are not wanted and we are not safe. There is no place in this world that offers us refuge. We have to find it on our own. Peace to my brothers and sisters who have survived a childhood, adolescence, adulthood of abuse and neglect by the very people who were suppose to protect us and failed SPECTACULARLY.
Really a very brutal “school” and life for these kids.
Well done!
is this how florida man was born? ☹️
Two awesome channels - When do you rest, you animal, LOL.
I can't believe you're so many evil people walking amongst us it's so so they must be dealt with 😭
Sounds like what happened at the Indian Residential Schools.
I listen to just about everything at 1.75x. Even 2.0x. But TIM and SS I set at “Normal”. Absolutely love the narration. My adhd brain thanks you for being awesome.
What's tim?
@@ShinigamisBlade this is monsters
@@ShinigamisBlade “This is Monsters” like the other poster said. It’s their other channel If you haven’t found it yet it’s fantastic!
Ditto! This is the only stream I listen to at “normal”, all the others range from “1.5 - 2.0”
✌🏾♥️😊🌈🌎
@@CaptainChadManly thank you!
One of the early versions of "ranches" for young people.
I have heard the stories of this place and other sanitariums, and the very first thing that happens which leads to everything turning bad, is the maximum occupancy being ignored. The very first thing we need to do with ANY facility, regardless of what is going on there, is ensure that maximum occupancy is NEVER tolerated. The Fire Marshall and Fire Chief of the area need to be punished as well because they allowed it to happen and had full authority to enforce maximum occupancy. Secondly, why is it that the only people who work at these places make serial killers seem like nice guys? What is it with the HR folks who allow it to happen? If this is the kind of results we can expect from the people who were actually hired to do the job, we ought to fill such positions with random people from the unemployment line. We'd probably end up with better results than with just hiring people who give Nazis a run for their money.
I’m sure MANY pedophiles were drawn to employment there. They love easy, unfettered access to helpless children. My blood is boiling 🤬🤬🤬
This is why I only swim in pools. Whew, ain’t no way. . .
"The White House Boys: An American Tragedy"
If anyone wants to read more about it.
Thank you
I just get angrier when I try to leave a comment.
May I ask why?
Is it not working for you?
@@onetiredempath I think because they are trying to comment angrily but then the next thing she hears something even more horrible
Am I going crazy or is that intro music the Kahoot music😂
Have you read The Nickel Boys? I cried through 1/3 of the book. Disturbing
