San Antonio scout case could lead to the release of more abuse allegations

The reports released today reveal the names of volunteers accused of sexual abuse or misconduct from 1965 to 1985. But that law firm out of Oregon now believes a case filed here in San Antonio will help them get a hold of more unreported cases of sexual abuse documented from 1985 to 2011.

@glad1: You calso view youth protection training at: http://www.scouting.org/Training/YouthProtection.aspx if you are interested in the steps the BSA takes today to protect youth. The BSA has really come a long way in training leaders on this subject.

@glad1: Everything you said is already official BSA policy. All adult leaders undergo a background check and are trained in youth protection procedures before they are allowed to work with youth. The two most important BSA youth protection policies are 1: two deep (adult) leadership at all activities, and 2) no one-on-one contact with youth.

Anyone anywhere working with children it should be mandatory back ground checks and no child should be allowed to be with only one adult alone there should always be others in the presence of children , this should be called the Sandusky law. Sick animals anyone who harms a child ,also death penalty should be implemented if sick acts like this occur,my opinion.
