Ex-Boy Scout leaders involved in pushing over ancient rock charged - CNN.com

The men likely wouldn't have been charged if not for the Internet -- specifically, the video Hall shot inside the sparse state park and posted to YouTube, then linked up on Facebook.

In it, Taylor is seen behind one of the many unique, ancient rocks in the park, his arm outstretched.
"Wiggle it, just a little bit," sang Hall, the cameraman, mimicking a pop song.

Soon after, Hall yells out "boom" then "yeah" as the rock tumbles down.

Well, of course, they would not be charged if there was no evidence.

I personally think it was enough to boot them from the Boy Scouts. The Boy Scouts acted diligently and correctly.

But I can't say that I'm upset that they will be facing the legal consequences for their actions that they are due.

If I recall correctly, wasn't the 'pusher' also exposed for being on 'disability' (bad back, I believe)?
