From the article: In the suit filed in San Francisco Superior Court, three brothers claim the church ignored their complaints about being molested by their Silicon Valley Boy Scout and Mormon youth leader in the 1970s and 1980s...One of the plaintiffs was still a devout member of the church, and two have served as scoutmasters.
From the article:
The lawsuit filed in Portland on behalf of a man who is now 46 claims a Mormon youth leader abused him between 1974 and 1977. The suit claims the abuse was reported to a church bishop but never communicated to law enforcement.
What did we Mormons ever do to you to get you so full of angst and anger?
I’m curious as to what the basis is for suing the Boy Scouts of America. The BSA does not select unit leaders nor does it supervise them.
Gays attacking boys - no surprise.
It is why most of us in the Boy scouts do not want gay leaders - to keep them from access to our sons.
The 1st amendment does give us freedom of assembly - we are allowed to pick our friends and whom we associate with.
Course any father in San Fran leaving their son with anyone should be child abuse.
Regarding the article:
there is no excuse for this type of behavior. May justice be served.
Regarding Colofornian:
A quick review of your posts and it is obvious Mormonism is your Moby-Dick. Don’t let it consume you Ahab.
Hey queers you lost prop. 8 too. At last count you queers are 0 for 31. Doesn't that tell you something? Get back into the closets you pedophiles.
It will be interesting to see how this one ends up. Seems like the allegations would be hard to prove and it would be difficult to convict the abuser after all these years.
Isn’t there a statue of limitations on these kinds of frivolous suits? Realistically, how can one subpoena testimony from someone about something that happened 40 years ago? How reliable will any of that testimony be?
Playing devils advocate here.
How the heck would anyone be able to prove their innocences some 30 years later? Imagine that you are now 60 years old and someone said you raped them 30 years ago. How can even possibly prove that you didn’t do it? Heck, I would have to look up where I was 30 days ago.
WOW!
They must have grown some balls since the 1890's; when they rolled over like a whipped puppy and gave up GOD's Etermanl Covenant of POLYGAMY because they were AFRAID of what the GOVERNMENT would do to them!
