San Antonio Scout leader wrongfully accused of sexual abuse gets his day in court, reinstated in BSABy Eagle94-A1 · Posted
Most Scouters I know do not have a personal attorney, nor can they afford one. As for the CO, most I have encountered are not active. And if they are active, councils tend to give them very little info on the situation in my experience. Heck when I was a DE, the SE kept info from me, and when I called him to tell him something about a situation, was told , " Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you....." And another organization's investigation won't mean squat to BSA. I knew someone falsely accused of sexual assault. There was a criminal investigation, and the evidence they found supported my friend. Even though she was cleared, she was still banned by the BSA. -
San Antonio Scout leader wrongfully accused of sexual abuse gets his day in court, reinstated in BSAThe Charter Representative was even kept in the dark on this whole deal. The Council Executive revoked the membership of the person and then informed the Charter Representative what he did. Gave vague details and then changed them later. The same Executive refuses to provide any details even to the person that was removed. Just vague, generalized charges with no specific information. The information he has provided does not even match up to the information provided to the Charter Representative and Charter Organization. Real sketchy deal all around. -
San Antonio Scout leader wrongfully accused of sexual abuse gets his day in court, reinstated in BSABy Cburkhardt · Posted
Any Scouter who believes he/she is the victim of a false allegation should immediately have their personal attorney request the chartered organization to conduct a thorough investigation of the matter. This is the single best way for a Scouter to obtain a finding of facts that can be used to mitigate the impacts of an unjust accusation. This can be fast and inexpensive -- and the results can be used to inform BSA and legal proceedings. -
