Six Cape and Islands cases of possible sexual abuse by Boy Scout troop leaders and volunteers were listed in a Los Angeles Times database. The database includes incidents covered by the "perversion files" released by the Boy Scouts of America Thursday as well as other accusations and documents gathered and released in various court cases.
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.
Here is a list of the 6 cases on the Cape and Islands, according to the L.A. Times files.

| 2003 | 3564 | Cotuit | Mass. | 52 |
