It was approximately two months before the inception of our blog that Christie Michelle Bray Scott murdered her older son Mason, a six year-old first-grader in Russellville. We're not using the word "allegedly" here, since Scott was convicted of the crime:
Scott resided in Franklin County with her husband and two sons, but was the daughter of a Winston County insurance agent. By all reports, she had the experience, contacts, and personality to be a very successful insurance agent herself. This is exactly what she was for ALFA when she murdered her son.
At the time of Scott's indictment and arrest two months after the crime, her face still adorned several billboards in Franklin and Marion Counties. Those who knew of the crime had for weeks asked ALFA in Montgomery to remove the advertising from the area, but to no avail.
Those who complained were not given even the courtesy of a response - sound familiar? The billboards remained until it was time to renew their lease. Only then were they replaced with something less offensive.
If ALFA thought so little of the life of Mason Scott, why should we expect the insurance leviathan to worry about the many animals who freeze to death each year in Alabama?
