Former troop leader and teacher Gary Stroup was banned from Boy Scouts after being accused of groping 11-year-old boys in 1989 and repeatedly petitioned to get back into the organization.

He maintained his innocence until he was indicted in 2005 on multiple counts of sexually abusing children at two schools where he had worked.

Stroup entered a plea on two counts of gross sexual exploitation and was sentenced to four years in prison.
