Forced-labor and trafficking lawsuit

In 2023 and 2024, Wyoming news outlets reported on a lawsuit by former residents alleging that Triangle Cross Ranch used forced labor and trafficked boys placed there years earlier. Cowboy State Daily reported that the ranch denied the allegations in court filings (Powell Tribune, Cowboy State Daily).

Earlier K2 Radio coverage described related allegations against Triangle Cross Ranch and Trinity Teen Solutions, two northwestern Wyoming youth treatment programs using Christian and wilderness-ranch models (K2 Radio).
