| I'm John Riley, Short List✨ editor, and these were just a few of the most-read events this week in USA TODAY🔵. With so much going on, some great stories can easily get overlooked. So here are some of the week's must-reads you may have missed.📰 |
| ►Wilderness therapy horror stories: In brochures and online, wilderness therapy programs look idyllic, touting a nature-based healing opportunity for children struggling with a myriad of behavioral issues. But former campers paint a different picture . They tell of being abused by staff and of fearing punishment at all hours. They describe living in filth. Of the dozen former campers USA TODAY spoke to, all described their experience as negative and traumatizing. |
| ►A wall of water: A possible rogue wave generated headlines around the world last week after it broke windows on a cruise ship off Argentina, killing a woman and injuring four others. Such freak accidents may seem rare, but they aren't: 432 incidents were documented internationally between 2005 and 2021, according to the Russian Academy of Science's Institute of Applied Physics website. Rogue waves, which are large and unexpected waves, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, occur on cruise ships, cargo vessels, oil platforms and beaches — and some research suggests warming temperatures are making them more common. |
