Louisville police, county attorney's office hide 738,000 records in Explorer sex abuse case

Louisville Metro Police concealed at least 738,000 records documenting the sexual abuse of Explorer Scouts by two officers — then lied to keep the files from the public, records show.

The Courier Journal last year requested all records regarding sexual abuse of minors by two officers in the Explorer Scout program for youths interested in law enforcement careers.

Police officials and the Jefferson County Attorney’s Office said they couldn't comply, insisting all the records had been turned over to the FBI for its investigation.

But that wasn't true, according to records The Courier Journal recently obtained in the appeal of its open records case.

with imprisonments in the general population who know the their cellmate is a kiddie rapist.

Prisons should be filled with the perv catholic priests for child rape, and those who enabled them to continue actively raping kids. Instead, they have been quietly transferred around parish to parish to hide them from their victims families, or promoted to a vatican posting.

Kids must be very disappointed in our child abuse enabling society we brought them into.
