Database: Roseville Cases Among Boy Scout Leaders Accused of Past Abuse

As part of the settlement in a multi-million-dollar sex abuse case, 'perversion' files containing information on thousands of possible crimes were released Thursday.

At least two cases of possible sexual abuse by Roseville Boy Scout troop leaders and volunteers are part of the organization's so-called "perversion" files released Thursday to the public.

For decades, the Boy Scouts of America kept the files as a way to keep volunteers suspected of inappropriate sexual behavior away from children. The cases were not shared with parents or police.

The files became public Thursday as part of an $18.5-million settlement between the Boy Scouts and a victim.

The names and details of some cases are sealed, many of them hidden from police and even parents and only discovered through lawsuits, are part of a database created through years of reporting at the Los Angeles Times.

The Los Angeles Times has created a list of the cases by year, city, state and troop number. The newspaper's list includes the time period covered by today's release — 1965 to 1985 — but also other accusations and documents gathered and released in various court cases.

Below is a list of the Roseville cases, according to the Times' files. None of the names of the accused in Roseville were released. 

According to the Times, the accused are identified below by name when files are available and by a unique number otherwise. If the same person is associated with more than one troop or unit, that name or number is repeated. Dates mark when the Boy Scouts created the file, not when the incidents are alleged to have occurred.
