South Carolina State Sen. John Scott, a Democratic lawmaker who had been an elected leader for over 30-years, has died at the age of 69-years-old at the Medical University of South Carolina hospital.
Scott's cause of death currently remains unknown, though he had reportedly experienced some trouble with blood clot issues earlier this year. Scott was first elected to the state House in 1990, and continued to serve as a state representative until he won the 2008 state senate race, according to The State.“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, son, and brother, Senator John L Scott. Jr.
