Jackson, who attended a different reformatory school in the U.S., told the magazine, “I went through some very, very similar experiences with those kind of teen places.

According to Hilton’s testimony before a Utah Senate committee, during her 11 months at Provo Canyon School, staff members beat her, forced her to take medication without a diagnosis, watched her shower, and put her into solitary confinement without clothes.

Jackson applauded Hilton for showing the “importance of setting a good example as a strong woman, and being able to uplift other women.”
