Thousands of pages of once-private records detailing sex-abuse allegations within the Boy Scouts of America from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s were made public per court order on Thursday. Included were reports of alleged child molestations by more than 1,200 scoutmasters and other adult volunteers nationwide.
