Two former scout leaders have been jailed within a week for sexually abusing youngsters in the same group.
Philip Levi, 73, was handed an 11-year term last week for 'predatory and persistent' abuses against children at his troop in Harrow.
Yesterday 68-year-old Paul Santon, who had worked at the same north-west London scout group in the 1970s, was jailed after admitting two indecent assaults.
The abuses in the 1970s and 1980s have only now come to light, the Metropolitan Police said.
Paul Santon, pictured outside Harrow Crown Court yesterday, was jailed for 20 months after he admitted two indecent assaults dating back to when he was a scout leader in the 1970s
Levi, who now lives in Ramsey, Cambridgeshire, preyed on boys in his care between 1972 and 1984.
He admitted one indecent assault against a child under 16 and two counts of indecency towards another youngster when he was a scout master.
One of the male victims finally came forward in November 2016 to say that Levi had abused them as a child.
Sentencing Levi to 11 years and three months last week, the judge described him as a 'predatory and persistent offender'.
Parents had put their boys in Levi's trust 'assuming he would be a role model' but he had chosen to systematically abuse them, the judge said.
Yesterday Santon, of St Albans, Hertfordshire, pleaded guilty at Harrow Crown Court to two assaults on a child under 16.
He was jailed for 20 months for the historic sex abuse.

Met Police officer Alyson Suddick said: 'Philip Levi abused his position within the Scouting Organisation to prey on young boys under his care, subjecting them to systematic sexual abuse at a time in their lives when they should have been carefree and enjoying the many benefits of being a Scout.
'Santon abused his position within the Scouts and carried out these sexual assaults.
'We are grateful to the victims for having the courage to come forward and assist police in this investigation.
'All suffered severe psychological trauma as a result of their experience and I would like to commend each and every one of them for their dignity throughout.
'I sincerely hope that the outcome of this case and the sentences imposed bring them a measure of comfort.
'Outcomes of this nature proves that men like Levi will not evade justice no matter how much time has passed.
'We would like to urge any other victims of Levi to come forward with information. All allegations will be treated with sensitivity and in the strictest of confidence.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
