Steven Scott, 49, was found dead on his own porch in Poplar Bluff, Missouri after a domestic argument in November 2018. He was discovered face-down with a knife in his hand; the death was initially presented to investigators as a defensive shooting after Scott allegedly confronted 55-year-old David Morgeson with a knife and a rifle discharged during a scuffle.

Butler County investigators say that account did not hold. Scott’s wife and Morgeson later admitted the scene had been staged: Morgeson shot Scott and the knife was placed in Scott’s hand after he was already dead. Morgeson was taken into custody and charged with second-degree murder, held on a $500,000 bond.

Are there readers who knew Steven or who have information about what happened that night?
