Thank you for all of the feedback and input. We received the letter. It is from our local council SE. It references the allegations and indicates that they will inform of any change to his status.

There have been no prior accusations, issues or incidents involving my son. No one from the troop spoke with my son or asked him what happened, or even if it happened. Our first indication of an issue was a phone call several days later telling us that we would be receiving a Cease Participation letter via certified mail withing the next day or two. We were told that the investigation would
