At a press conference just outside the Capitol, Hilton said, “Today I come here not as Paris, but as a survivor.”
“For 20 years I couldn’t sleep at night, as memories of physical violence, feeling of loneliness, the loss of years rushed through my mind when I shut my eyes.”Hilton said that when she was a teenager, “I woke up to two large men in my bedroom,” asking her if she “wanted to go the easy way or the hard way.”
She said that she thought she was being kidnapped, but she was physically dragged out of her house and being sent to a residential care facility, what she called “the troubled teen industry.”Paris Hilton Says Opening Up For Revealing 'This Is Paris' Was "Therapeutic And Healing" - Contenders TV Docs + Unscripted
“I was sent to four facilities over a two-year period, and my experience at each one haunts me to this day,” she said, adding that she was strangled, slapped across her face and subject to other forms of abuse. She also said that she was forced to take medication without a diagnosis and thrown into solitary confinement. She said that at Provo Canyon School in Utah, she was forced to stay indoors for 11 months straight.
“Every day in America, children in congregate care facilities are being physically, sexually and emotionally abused,” she said, blaming it on a “systemwide lack of transparency and accountability.”
