Think Progress has the full story.
In a 60 Minutes interview to be aired this Sunday, freshman GOP Sen. Scott Brown reveals that he was molested by an adult male camp counselor while a young boy.
Brown told interviewer Lesley Stahl that even his mother didn't know about the abuse. "That's what happens when you're a victim. You're embarrassed. You're hurt," he said. Brown said the camp counselor had touched him and he had been forced to touch the counselor. He said the counselor threatened to kill him if he told anyone about what had happened. "Fortunately, nothing was ever fully consummated, so to speak, but it was certainly, back then, very traumatic," he said. Brown gave the interview on the eve of publication of his memoir "Against All Odds."Brown also disclosed that his stepfathers had brutally beaten him when he was as young as six years old.
