signs of the danger the men posed.
In a lawsuit filed Monday against
the Boy Scouts of America, lawyers
said they’ve identified 350 abusers
who preyed on young Scouts. Only two
dozen of their names are in the Boy
Scouts’ disciplinary files, made public
in a previous court case.
The list of alleged abusers, obtained
by USA TODAY, details
molestation ranging
from fondling to sodo-
my. Some of the men
ended up in court or
were punished admin-
istratively for similar
crimes, sometimes
many years after these
newly alleged assaults. Some were
kicked out of Scouting for abuse. USA
TODAY is naming only those who fit
one or more of those categories.
In a statement, Boy Scouts of Amer-
ica said it cares about all victims of
abuse and apologizes to anyone
harmed during their time in Scouting.
A review of the list and victims’
allegationsreveals a disturbingly com-
mon detail: Beyond Scouts, many of
the accused were in positions to pro-
tect, mentor and nurture children.Police officerMichael Nussbaum, 57, is one of

is relative, this is what they mean:
A flash of recognition slipped across
her face before the woman in a black
tank top wrapped her arms around a
man’s neck in greeting. Just nine sec-
onds later, the two were fleeing a gun-
man. It feels as fast as a blink.
Down the road, another pair strolled
toward a street light. They paused just
after the first gunshot. It took six ago-
nizingly long seconds before the two
recognized the sound and started to run.
As police tell it, they were on the
scene and had “neutralized” the shooter
in 32 seconds. But those seconds felt
like an eternity for the people who heard
the shots, realized their lives were at
stake and scurried for safety.
“It’s kind of like the Earth stood still
for a second,” said Erianna Carpenter,
who turns 28 this month. “It was a sur-
real moment.”
