Officials held a press conference revealing grim details. Sheriff Mike Chitwood condemned Scott’s actions, calling him “a human piece of garbage” and confirming his rightful place behind bars. The timeline showed Scott arrived at the barbershop at 11:30 a.m., finished his haircut around noon, then spent the afternoon drinking at Hanky Panky’s Lounge while Sebastian remained trapped in the car.

Scott claimed the car windows were down, but investigators found only a small battery-powered fan inside. He left the bar around 2:40 p.m. and drove home before making a frantic 911 call reporting Sebastian was unresponsive. Sadly, Sebastian was already in rigor mortis upon emergency responders’ arrival. The case has shocked the community, with loved ones raising funds for the family and legal proceedings moving swiftly forward.
