Fredrick Scott Trial Set to Begin | St. Louis News

After nine years of waiting, the trial for Fredrick Scott — accused of six brutal murders in Kansas City between 2016 and 2017 — finally begins this Thursday. Victims include Mike Darby, whose brother Bob describes him as a kind soul who helped others without seeking recognition. The case, one of the prosecutor’s oldest and most high-profile, has been plagued by delays, including Scott’s July 2024 courtroom outburst that led to his temporary mental health commitment. A jury is now selected, and opening statements are set to begin — offering families and the community long-awaited closure as justice inches closer to being served.
