LDS Stephen D. Field was placed on the BSA confidential file on June 18, 1971 but even though “the LDS Bishop at Valencia told the Brother-in-Law (who was a Scoutmaster in the LDS Church) not to associate with Stephen Field anymore” Field “continued to work with the Valencia troop after he moved to Newhall.”
“Field was sentenced (in 1988) to state prison.. for molesting two 13 year-old boys…. It appears that this conduct has been going on for an extremely long period of time. Field was asked to leave a Santa Monica Boy Scout troop in 1971 after complaints from boys in the troop.”
“The Boy Scouts of America have a file on Mr. Field, dating back to 1971, containing some complaints that were made about Mr. Field.”
