BOISE — Four more men have joined an Idaho lawsuit filed in federal court against the Boy Scouts of America and the LDS Church.
All eight involved in the suit say they were sexually abused by scoutmasters and that leaders in both the church and the scouts failed to protect them.
John Elliott is the only person who has chosen to be named in the lawsuit.
He says telling his story isn’t easy, but he hopes it will help other victims have the courage to speak up about abuse.
