Prosecutor Threatens Death Sentence for an Innocent Man

Regarding Alice Scott’s (no relation to Jeremy Scott) testimony and the subsequent discovery of her unreliability and mental health issues, Avalon appeals to the fact that these revelations were given in a newspaper article and suggested that they should not carry the same weight as a sworn testimony in court.

While she doesn’t leave Leo Schofield or his defense team any room for conjecture, Victoria Avalon freely indulges in it herself, describing reports of Leo’s ā€œunusualā€ behavior following his wife’s funeral.

She continues, somewhat bizarrely, to describe conflicting accounts regarding Michelle's car stereo, stating:

ā€œIn his motion…Defendant further claims that the stereo system was still in the car; therefore, he opines, Mr. Scott’s claim that he removed the stereo cannot be believed. Defendant appears to be resorting to what may colloquially be described as ā€œalternative factsā€ in this claim, as that was resolved adversely to Defendant by the 2010 order, where Judge Spoto held that Defendant himself rendered sworn trial testimony that stereo equipment was missing from the car.ā€

It should be noted that photos of the crime scene have revealed that the stereo unit itself was still in the car, though the rear speakers had been removed. And the location of Jeremy Scott’s fingerprints was not in agreement with his testimony.

Refusing to acknowledge recent findings, Avalon discusses the results of a 2010 hearing in which Judge Keith Spoto stated that ā€œThere was no evidence that Mr. Scott had any connection to the victim as a friend, acquaintance or in any other capacity.ā€

It is common knowledge, however, to those familiar with the case that Jeremy Scott and Michelle Schofield did, in fact, know each other and were in the same group of friends prior to Michelle marrying Leo.

Regarding the same 2010 trial, Avalon suggests that Jeremy Scott’s violent background and criminal history are inadmissible, but discusses allegations of domestic violence transpiring between Leo and Michelle prior to her death.

After filing the State’s Response, Avalon’s office filed a motion to subpoena Jeremy Scott’s medical records, and motions to transport Scott ā€œfor the purpose of an investigation.ā€ This ā€œinvestigationā€ would be a discussion between Avalon and Scott without Leo’s defense team being present.

In various motions debating the State’s ability to hold a private investigation of Jeremy Scott, it was revealed that Avalon’s office ā€œinadvertently had transport orders signed by a different judge not assigned to the case to transport [Jeremy Scott] to the county jail for a ā€˜confidential investigation.ā€™ā€
