The man carried signs at the corner of Oradell and Forest avenues saying "BCHS IGNORES VICTIMS" and "TEN SEX VICTIMS AWAIT JUSTICE."

NOTE: It is unclear if the man is claiming he is a victim. Daily Voice is gathering more information.

Nearly one year ago to the day, the all-boys high school reached a settlement with 21 men who accused staff of sex abuse in the 1960s and 1970s. The victims shared the $1.9 million settlement money, NJ.com reported.

The following October, eight more men came forward also claiming sex abuse at the school.
