I don't doubt it for a second, hence my RoboCop reference, but it's still not right what they are doing.

This CYA attitude is what may have led to this once-respected organization's downfall, Reminds me of the corporate culture of OCP from "Robocop" . This attitude that everyone is guilty no matter what the courts say is ridiculous and even though this is a private organization they still should allow for due process , I believe that if a person is found responsible in a court of law then they should be removed from the program, but if there are only accusations and unfounded criminal investigations then the person should be allowed to resume their Scouting activities.

Thank you, just need to get things in place to start the process

This is the article that I was referring to The only difference between my situation and his is that I was accused by a former romantic partner and not somebody in scouting

I did some research and there is precedent of scouters being reinstated as recently as last month for being falsely accused of misconduct I just need to find an attorney that will pursue legal action I'm not looking for compensation just reinstatement

This happened to me 4 years ago just as the COVID pandemic began. After being a member of the BSA for 39 years I was summarily dismissed based upon a false accusation of sexual misconduct from a former romantic partner in retaliation for ending our relationship. She was found guilty of perjury in another matter and there was a criminal investigation by the police and nothing came of the investigation. Now IF it was PROVEN in a court of law that I was responsible for criminal sexual misconduct that would be something I would accept, but just an accusation is not a good enough reason to be removed from the organization, especially given the context surrounding the accusation. This whole situation sounds like what happens with red flag laws.
