Boy Scout Internal ‘Perversion Files’ – Child Molesters Named

Since at least 1919, the Boy Scouts of Amer­ica has main­tained “in­eli­gible vo­lun­teer” files in­ten­ded to keep sexu­al ab­users, among oth­ers, out of its ranks. The re­cords have been closely held by the Scouts, which con­tends that con­fid­en­ti­al­ity is es­sen­tial to pro­tect vic­tims, wit­nesses and any­one falsely accused. In all, The Times has re­cords of nearly 5,000 cases dat­ing back as far as 1947, all de­rived from court re­cords. Of those, about 1,900 case files with de­tailed in­form­a­tion about the al­leg­a­tions can be viewed in the data­base. In many of the in­cid­ents de­scribed, no crim­in­al charges were filed, mean­ing the al­leg­a­tions were nev­er heard in crim­in­al court. Case files have vic­tims’ names and identi­fy­ing in­form­a­tion re­dac­ted. READ MORE HERE
