The Ruth Home Sokun Home now defunct unlicensed "boarding school". Refer to People vs. Lee Sokun Thach ,Los Angeles Superior Court Case No. NA045117, Long Beach, California

Sokun Lee Thach preyed on first generation immigrants dealing with assimilation of their American-raised daughters who strayed from Southeast Asian cultural norms, promising a private school education and instilling cultural roots. Many young teenage girls went through physical, emotional, and psychological abuse at the hand of Sokun Lee Thach under the guise of religion, while she reaped monetary gain. The location of this place is no longer a makeshift "boarding home", which consisted of 3 bedrooms which housed 40+ girls.
Thach accepted a plea bargain without paying restitution to the victims. The victims in this case went through professional psychological counseling though the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office Victim - Witness Assistance Program.
