Dont know anyone diddled by the boy scouts. I know four who were diddled by priests. Where the is the Class Action against the Vatican?
It was always around - 30 years ago when my Son was active in Scouts, our Troop made a rule that only Fathers of Scouts could be involved. No single older men were allowed to be leaders.
The Council was a different story. Almost all of the full time Council Leaders were single middle-aged men.
My father was molested by his Scout Master in the 1970s. He was not his first victim, but he was the one who lead to his arrest.
Unfortunately, there were people who suspected such and criminally turned a blind eye.

Heck, I know numerous cases of sex abuse in OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS, where’s the class action against the public schools?
Found out a year ago a fella I’ve known for 25 years was one of the diddlers back in the 60’s. Arrested, fined, and kicked out as a scout leader. No one knew until after he died, and googling his name produced page after page from the Perversion Files.
“Dont know anyone diddled by the boy scouts.”
The figure is up to 90,000+. Even back in the 70’s adults were never left alone with any scout at least with my troop.
A scout master in my old troop was sent to jail for 20 years for doing that.
Commercials for that are also around but the BSA lawsuit ones had a deadline date which is about now.
