Director Revokes Bail License

On June 21st, the Director of DIFP ordered the license of Ozell Scott be revoked. A disciplinary hearing was held earlier in the week. Scott did not appear. Department staff recommended that Scott’s license be revoked, and that recommendation was adopted by the Director in his order. In March, the Administrative Hearing Commission ruled that Scott was subject to discipline. His license was issued on August 28, 2001. On March 22, 2006, in the Circuit Court of St. Louis County, Scott entered an Alford plea to resisting arrest, a Class D felony, and pled guilty to unlawful use of a weapon, a Class D felony. The court suspended the imposition of sentence on the resisting arrest. On the weapons charge, the court found Scott guilty and sentenced him to three years in prison, but suspended the execution of sentence. On each count, the court placed him on probation for three years.
