NECN quoted Madden as saying, "He would fondle me. Pull my pants down, things like that."

Madden said she told the camp directors about the abuse after her father died in 2009 and left his estate to the camp. In February, after U.S. Sen. Scott Brown revealed he had been abused as a child at a Christian camp on the Cape when he was 10, Camp Good News confirmed Brown had been a camper at the facility.
