Narcotics Anonymous Meetings are being run by the Bloods Gang in New Jersey Halfway House called Bo Robinson Treatment Center. They are dealing drugs in the NA meetings and violence is typical in the NA meetings. Some inmates are so scared they ask to go back to jail! There is so much drug dealing going on in the NA meetings, the younger crowd who typically scorn AA/NA meetings attend to get drugs.
These people are in a halfway house to aid in integrating them back into society. Once released and still on probation many are required to attend Narcotics Anonymous meetings or Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. It is this demographic that is co-mingling with minors and young adults in outside meetings. For AA and NA, the more the merrier. Just like the state government and owners of Bo Robinson, AA and NA turn their back on the sexual abuse, drug use and violence in 12 step meetings. Yet they zealously pursue our children to come to these dangerous meetings.
At a Halfway House, Bedlam Reigns

He said Narcotics Anonymous sessions and other counseling sessions sometimes included over 100 inmates and often turned raucous, with inmates shouting, arguing and throwing things, or else sleeping.
At one point, Mr. Watkins said, he discovered that many of the younger inmates who usually scorned these meetings were eagerly attending. When he learned what was happening, he said, he was stunned.
“An older resident comes in my office; he wants to see me,” Mr. Watkins recalled. “He sits down and he says, ‘Mr. Watkins, I’ve got to tell you something, but it’s got to stay between me and you.’ No problem. He said, ‘The Bloods are running the N.A. meetings.’ I said, ‘Excuse me?’ ”
“Instead of drug and alcohol talk, they were talking gang stuff.”
I went to one AA meeting that was controlled by associates of a prison gang. Crazy.
Thanks for commenting! Some people think we are making this stuff up, but it is all true! There is no one considered too dangerous to send to AA meetings.
All hell is probably breaking loose in New Jersey in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Govenor Christie has approved the mandating of felons to Drug Court. It is big money for them.

HERE’S A GOOD ARTICLE FROM “THE NEW YORK TIMES” FOR POLICE CHIEF BARKER OF HOLLY HILL FLORIDA TO CHECK OUT!
He and those under his direction have discredited citizens who have asked for help in regard to harassment, threats of violence and even death from members of these groups in our local parks and playgrounds. The citizens, who have NO POLICE RECORD, get blamed and re-victimized by Police Chief Mark Barker of Holly Hill Florida, who hardly ever goes to the park yet insists there has been no trouble from the felons who gather by the playground and “ASSURES US THAT THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR CONCERN.”
(This is a well-written, in-depth, three-part NEW YORK TIMES investigative report, This article being part 2.) BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE RELATING ARTICLES,( PART 1 AND 3) BY CLICKING ON THEM AT THE TOP OF THIS ARTICLE ! !
WATCH THE VIDEOS TOO ! !
This investigative reporting shows what happens in unsupervised situations like NARCOTICS ANONYMOUS and ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS meetings.
Repeat offenders and felons, are simply being released at an alarming rate of increase through a revolving door of Drug Court and other Courts, due to overpopulation in our jails and prisons. SCARY but true !
To comply with the terms of their release, they converge in huge numbers at non-accountable AA/NA meetings in order to get court papers signed by a nonprofessional, addict volunteer! ? These gatherings, of mostly released inmates, have no security, no counselors and no supervision of any kind! This is a fact that groups do not deny.
When one of their members commits a crime at a meeting all efforts are made to COVER IT UP AND SWEEP IT UNDER THE “ANONYMOUS” RUG TO “MAINTAIN THE ILLUSION OF FUNCTIONALITY.”
The courts and related law enforcement DON’T WANT ANYONE TO REALIZE just how dysfunctional and dangerous these unsupervised sessions are becoming !
Many people have experienced all kinds of abuse from attendees at AA/NA meetings only to find that no one will help, including law enforcement.
No one is responsible or accountable !
KEEP ON RAISING AWARENESS ABOUT THE TRUTH,( FOR ALL WHO CARE ABOUT WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON !)
Well its about time the New York Times is reporting on this story!!!
Great coverage here as well. I will put it up on my blogs as well.
