According to the AP, the Oregon Supreme Court has ruled that 20,000 pages of the Boy Scouts’ so-called ‘perversion files’ must be opened to the public. The files, compiled from 1965-1985, were used as evidence in a lawsuit against the Boy Scouts in which the organization was found to have failed to protect a man molested by an assistant scoutmaster in the early 1980s.
