Click “IV File Detail” to access a PDF of the IV File / Perversion File of a given perpetrator.

While lawsuits were filed involving some of these alleged perpetrators, the vast majority of the claims against these individuals have not been fully evaluated in a civil or criminal court. Accordingly, the allegations should be considered just allegations and should not be considered proved or substantiated in a court of law. All individuals should be considered innocent until proven guilty. In some situations, the statute of limitations has expired preventing cases from being heard in a court of law. The information contained herein is an attempt to compile information already available to the public including information obtained from the media, https://spreadsheets.latimes.com/boyscouts-cases/, the Boy Scouts of America’s public statements, and other sources that have attempted to chronicle this information for public use.
