George Scott killed his son and himself

Authorities said Scott appeared to have killed his son with a sharp object before killing himself, according to WCVB. “We are awaiting confirmation from the medical examiner of these and other details,” Quinn said in a statement. Miliote confirmed that Scott is the son of former All-Star Red Sox first baseman George Scott, who spent nine seasons in Boston in the 1960s and 1970s.

Courtney Colombo, 34, told The Globe that she had lived next door to Scott’s since 2020 with her boyfriend and said he had always been a friendly neighbor. She said that she sometimes saw Dante playing outside. “I was shocked to hear what happened,” she said. “I was not expecting this. I feel bad for the boy, he didn’t deserve any of that.”

Just over two weeks earlier, detectives investigating the disappearance of the boy’s mother, Lisa Hazard, had searched the home, The Boston Globe reported. Her mother has been missing since March 2019. Scott had been named a “person of interest” in the missing persons case, which remains unsolved.
