Scott graduated from Augustana College in 1989 and went on to the USD Law School in Vermillion where he obtained his J.D. in 1992.

He moved his family to Wagner in 1993, when he was hired by Wipf and Cotton Law Firm. He did general legal work and criminal defense.

Scott served terms as State's Attorney from 1998-2008 and again from 2015-2016. He served terms as Deputy State's Attorney from 2013 -2015 and 2017 -2019.

Scott was well known, liked, and respected in his legal profession. Many have said that he had a brilliant mind and was a talented trial attorney.

During Scott's 27 years in Wagner, he also served on numerous organizations and committees. Labor Day Committee, Centennial Committee, Abate, and Lion's Club were some of his favorites.

Scott had a unique style and sense of humor.  He was a man who wore many hats!

The family is sure many have an amusing "Pod story" they can tell.

He will be dearly missed by his family, his friends, colleagues, and loyal dog Sophie.
