Utah revokes license for boarding school where Paris Hilton says she was abused

Utah has revoked the license of Provo Canyon School, a boarding facility where Paris Hilton alleged she was abused as a teenager. State regulators cited multiple noncompliance issues, including unnecessary restraint, aggressive physical contact, and instances of neglect, stating the school "failed to provide applicable health and safety services for clients." The school's residential treatment license has been cancelled, and all services at the campus must be terminated by August 6. Hilton, who spent nearly a year at the school in the 1990s and has since become a vocal advocate against the "troubled teen industry," stated that the facility "failed the children in its care." The school said it is considering an appeal against the decision. Health officials had previously imposed temporary restrictions on the school's boys' campus in June following an inquiry into a fight where a boy was injured.
