A Boy Scout counselor from Laurel has been charged with using his cell phone to take pictures of an 8-year-old boy in an Arundel Mills bathroom.
Andrew Malone Gipson, 32, of the 7000 block of Ashford Boulevard was arrested by Anne Arundel County Police Friday on charges of taking a picture in a private place with prurient intent and being a peeping Tom. He was being held at a county detention center Tuesday on $30,000 bond, police said.
A phone list on the Web site for the Baltimore Area Council’s Four Rivers District listed Gipson as one of 38 merit badge counselors for cycling.
Gipson was found with a picture of the boy on his cell phone after the boy’s father, who went into the bathroom to check on his son, reported the incident to mall security, police said. Security detained the suspect until police arrived. The victim was not injured.

The dude isn't a Scoutmaster. He's a cycling merit badge councilor.

Anybody can be a merit badge counselor, and there's no sponsoring organization to vet his character.
And another adult must be with the Scouts at all times.
Please do peddle your theories elsewhere.
What is it with all of this perversion! I am so sick of it. Have there always been such a large number of perverts in society? Or is it just that our culture has led more people to think in perverted ways?
Methinks we need to return to less civilized ways of dealing with this kind of behavior.
Sssshhhh!
Not a pedophile, but a pederast. Let's see if my son were to be molested, which would be less disgusting and degrading for him?? To be molested by a homo pervert or an oversexed woman. It all comes down to rate of molestation doesn't it. Some homosexuals have molested dozens of boys. Were you aware the homosexuals have a national organization called NAMBLA.org. Check it out for yourself. A national org with the goal of homosexuals raping young boys. What constitutes deviance to you?
Kramer: Did you know it was possible to come out of a coma?
Jerry: I didn't know it was possible not to know that.
the ACLU is sueing the boy scouts just so these animals have access to our sons - exactly like they did to the church in the 70's and look what happened.
The same thing occurred in ancient Rome. Homosexuals actually bought and sold boys and kept them for their pleasure. These poor creatures were called catamites. How little have we progressed in 2000 years never ceases to amaze.
