LDS Troop a mother of a previous victim called the BSA “concerning rumors that paul
Jellum had been reinstated in Scouting. She expressed concern that because no
conviction was made that the accused can go on abusing children. She asked if they (the
mothers of abused sons) could intervene in the appeal process. 1 gave her the name of the

because of the charges being brought by the mother of the boy.” This file was also heavily
