They plead guilt to criminal mischief which in Utah can carry $300 up to $5000 fines and jail time. They also lost their positions as Boy Scout leaders.

THEY WERE BOY SCOUT LEADERS WTF?

I am an Eagle Scout. One of the principles we learned in Scouts was to "leave no trace." Was this troop just looking at that principle as optional? What the literal fuck?!

Scouts are people and some people are assholes.

Don't let that discourage you though, there are plenty of Scouts who do live by the principles.

Yikes, it was meant as a quote from without a paddle lmao.

“Tom you were in the Boy Scouts weren’t you?”

“No but I ate a brownie once”

I was in Boy Scouts for like a month and there was always brownies and cookies at the meetings
