Lawsuit Claims Midwest Academy Abused Troubled Students
Six former pupils and their parents filed in South Lee County District Court accusing Midwest Academy and its director Benjamin Trane of physical and sexual abuse, coercive confinement, and a dehumanizing regime. They assert false imprisonment, neglect, and educational malpractice, noting CPA findings of past abuse and a harsh OSS isolation box regime with limited food. Federal and state warrants were executed January 28 at the Keokuk campus and nearby facility after a hotline report alleging abuse.
