Accused Indiana Child Molester Caught In Escambia County

June 12, 2015

An accused child molester from Indiana was captured in Escambia County Thursday.

The U.S. Marshals Florida Regional Fugitive Task Force captured Scott Edward Culver, 51, who was wanted on a two-year old warrant alleging he molested several young children under the ages of 12 and 14 while living and working in Indiana.

The U.S. Marshals in the Northern District of Indiana contacted the Florida task force two days ago with information that Culver may be living in Escambia County. Officials said it is unclear as to exactly how long Culver may have been hiding in the Pensacola area, but reportedly was employed in a local restaurant.

Early Thursday morning the Task Force and Pensacola Police Department officers went to a house on the 5000 Block of Springhill Drive and arrested Culver without out any resistance.

Culver is wanted on a March 2013 warrant out of Elkhart County charging him with four felony charges of child molestation, one felony charge of child solicitation and a misdemeanor charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

    This alcoholic scumbag is my step brother. The Goshen police released him AFTER he confessed, to go home and make arrangements. He did. He sold everything that wasn’t nailed down and left his parents destitute. I arranged to get my blind, demented mother down here and into a nursing home where she finally got medical treatment that the State of IN refused to get her. She lost everything, her home, business and property, all to vultures that swooped in. He apparently has done this many times before, as he had a video arcade with a secret room. I telephoned the media and police several times to try to help catch him, no one bothered to call me back.

    It is astonishing the lengths these perverts will go to so they can continue their sick acts. Need to make sure he hasn’t molested any children in this area before he is released to go back north.

    Now let him have his day in court; don’t mess up the prosecution; convict him; THEN stick him in jail and throw away the key!
