AMERICAN BOY SCOUTS - Sexual Abuse Response

"Lawyer calls Boy Scouts’ response to sexual abuse scandal ‘grossly deficient’" PBS NewsHour 4/24/2019

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  For decades, the Boy Scouts of America maintained a confidential blacklist of staff and volunteers accused of sexual abuse.  The magnitude of that list, known internally as the perversion files, is only now being realized.  John Yang talks to Jeff Anderson, an attorney who represents abuse survivors, about the “grossly deficient” response from the Boy Scouts and why the files should be made public.
