A bankruptcy filing that could spell the end of the Boy Scouts of America is imminent, sources told The Post.
Crippled by thousands of child sex-abuse claims in multiple states and with more victims coming forward every day the bankruptcy case could reach into the billions, said one lawyer who represents 1,800 men who allege they were molested as scouts.
The filing, expected in Delaware, could come any day or in the next couple of weeks, sources said.
Its going to be a mess. If it takes a long period of time, its an open question whether the Boy Scouts will have any resources to keep operating while the bankruptcy is pending, said attorney Tim Kosnoff.
Any bankruptcy by the Boy Scouts would be historic given the breadth of the organization. It is active in every state and territory, and has seen millions of boys move through its ranks since its inception more than a century ago. The group kept files on thousands of abuse allegations made against leaders since 1944.

Thanks Rex.
Who would have thought that allowing homosexual men to be boy scout leaders would result in this?
Leftist homo pedo freaks ruin everything.
So how did caving in to the homos and the liberals/progressives work out for ya?
I thought they were Scouts BSA. Last time I saw them selling mistletoe in front of our grocery store there was a woman scout master and three girls and two boys in scout uniforms.
Yeah. Who would have thought?
I guess they want to get their money, before the Left manages to legalize pedophilia.
So sad.
Faith-based organizations need to take over the lead in this area and have dependable boys and girls groups that parents can trust. The secular 57 gender community destroys children and spits them out upon society.
Mission accomplished.
Libs don’t care if churches survive their hostile takeover or if the congregation just leaves.
Same here.
They want the real estate and the “foundation”.
They’d do it to political parties too if given a chance.
Good, the org as it is now, needs to be completely destroyed.
Rebuilt to what it USED TO BE.
NO LIBTARD PC IDIOTS.
NO HOMOS.
NO girl members. Let them fight and fix the GIRL SCOUTS instead of demanding the boy scouts take them in.
They went from Boy Scouts to scouting for boys.
Oh and backto its Christian roots for its morals and behaviors.
Mainline Protestants, ChikFilA, Holyweird moguls, BSA etc etc. I guess getting woke won’t save you after all.
They were one of the most sued organizations in America. Every liberal group lined up to take their shots. The purpose was always to take the elephant down. I wonder how many here who are championing their demise donated to the BSA. Yes, they did make concessions, but that was to buy time before being sued to death.
My father was an Eagle scout in the late 30s and a scoutmaster in the early 60s.
He must be turning over in his grave with the perverted crap the BSA has morphed into.
I was always proud to say that I AM an Eagle Scout. It is with a saddened heart that I will now have to admit that I WAS an Eagle Scout.
If you had asked me on the day on my Eagle Scout award, Will homosexuals be able to invade and destroy BSA in the next few decades? I would have looked at you like you were from outer space. (At the time, I was not sure what a homosexual really was.)
In retrospect, Scouting years were the best of my young adult life. I am so sorry that so many young men will not have a similar experience.
It is truly a sad day for America.
Scout: 1964-1971
Eagle Scout:1969 Bronze Palm (Award signed by Richard Nixon)
Adult Scouter: 1996-2008
Son, Eagle Scout: 2007 Gold Palm
I was a boy scout, very proud to be a boyscout.
Eagle.
When Romney and the PC gang sold out the organization, however many years ago, to admit gays, it was all over.
Shameful.
Another example of get woke, go broke.
