THE DUTY OF CARE BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA OWE TO YOUTH

From camping trips to other activities, the Boy Scouts allow adult leaders to have copious access to young boys. If that leader is a sexual predator, the damage to the young boys under his supervision can be tremendous and unforeseen. Many victims describe being “groomed” for sexual abuse and being told that sexual contact was part of their training.

When it comes to sexual abuse allegations by youth in the Boy Scouts, not only is the perpetrator the only person who can be targeted for a civil lawsuit, but also the entire BSA organization. The Boy Scouts of America as a legal entity has the legal obligation to take all reasonable steps to keep youth under their care safe, including making sure young people in the organization are not sexually abused by adults under their supervision.

Most civil lawsuits involving Boy Scout sexual abuse involve:

• Compensatory damages for physical harm
• Mental trauma
• Pain and suffering
• And even punitive damages
