Beulah Man Charged With Molesting Preteen Boy
June 18, 2024
A Beulah man has been charged with sexually abusing a preteen boy over a period of several years.
James Craig Schultz, 70, was charged with sexual battery molesting a victim under 12-years-old by an offender 18-years-old or older, a life felony.
Schultz allegedly sexually molested the boy since at least about 2015, according to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office. The report states a relative walked into the child’s room last week and saw Schultz exposing himself to the child.
The victim said Schultz had been “engaging in sexual acts with him since he was 10-11 years old”, according to the arret report.
The relative and the boy had been living with Schultz for over 10 years, and the victim viewed him as his grandfather, although they are not related, according to the report.

@give me a break, it’s sad that you have no clue. I don’t know your name but God does so I will add you to my prayer list.
If this man is tried and subsequently convicted, he should be locked up forever.
No exit but toes up.
CCHGN:
Again, this is my point: your manual of life (the Bible) contradicts itself in multiple places and the best that adherents can do to justify it are quote a contradictory verse.
So it’s just like “pick and choose” and I am not submitting to your rules.
I don’t have to. It’s the very 1ST Amendment to the Constitution.
Good grief:
What I did was lead you into the box canyon of your beliefs. Through a simple series of posts it was shown that those following the Bible pick and choose the verses that suit them to the detriment of those of us who don’t adhere to your faith.
Keep your faith in your house of worship. It has no place in the governing of this country.
And prior to anyone getting all up in arms over my post I do not condone any form of violence on a child or anyone else for that mattter. Simply questions. I’ve known this entire family for decades….. my own children grew up around them. My now adult children have nothing but wonderful things to say about the Offender. The details appear blurred.
Give Me a Break: The Bible also says “An eye for an eye”, what do ya suppose that means? BTW, FYI, it IS “thou shalt not commit murder”. Apparently killing was commonplace back then, so…Moses spent 40 years out in the desert, getting the “Shalt not kill”, then God directs them to go right into Canaan and kill every man, woman, and child. How do you reconcile that?
YOU said:”But it surely seems that whenever a conundrum like this occurs, believers of that particular book find a way to subvert it to their own desires in offense to the rights of non-believers.” SO, it seems that way huh? What does that mean, exactly? Either it is or it is not. So what rights did that kid have?
Jack5: Slaying is killing , plain and simple.
@Bob please read Matthew 18:6. There’s your answer.
Pretty sure that everybody who is for the death penalty would like the execution carried out in a swift manner – not being dragged through the court system for 30 or more years costing an exorbitant amount of money to the tax payers. Naysayers to the death penalty conveniently overlook that aspect and state a death penalty conviction is too expensive.
How many dangerous people who give absolutely nothing back to society should we feed and house for the rest of their lives? You can’t enforce work details because work is considered cruel punishment by the courts
@ Give me a break, how was that ever your point? You were the one that brought up what you thought the Bible says. Nice back tracking!
… where y’all going? To the train station… where else?
And just in case anyone misunderstands me:
If this person is found guilty as charged, then he should never see the outside of a prison cell.
Ever.
Good grief:
This is exactly my point. I don’t require your book or trying to ‘divide the truth’ to live my life. That’s my 1st Amendment right.
But it surely seems that whenever a conundrum like this occurs, believers of that particular book find a way to subvert it to their own desires in offense to the rights of non-believers.
@ Give me a break, just stop! If you aren’t going to divide the word of truth as we are called to do then please just stop. Everybody wants God’s Word to say what they want it to say instead of what it says. STUDY!
I’m fairly certain that strapping someone to a gurney or a chair and ending their life with purpose is the very definition of murder, no matter when it occurs.
And if our government does so in our name for “justice,” then all of our hands are stained.
@Give me a break. While I dont agree with killing him. You are wrong on a different point. When the King James was written 400 years ago, the word kill is what we define as murder today. The word slay is what we think of as kill today. David slew Goliath he did not kill him. And if you believe in the Bible what did God tell his people to do when they entered Canaan. Did he suspend the commandments. No, they slew the people of Canaan not killed.
Why take him out of his misery?? Let him live with it like the rest of the Family and the Victim has to! Let him rot in jail! JS!
@Shadowclad
Personally, I have this crazy idea that human life has value, and that we shouldn’t murder people unless there is a really good reason.
So far, I’ve heard a lot of people advocating for killing, but no one has been able to give me a good reason *why*.
@Mike
If this guy is guilty, he absolutely belongs in prison. I’m asking why we should kill him *instead* of putting him in prison.
Life in prison is cheaper, does just as good a job of protecting the community, and acts as just as much of a detriment to crime.
@Northender
“Make sure they don’t do it to another child” – which can also be accomplished by life in prison.
“Save taxpayers money” – ignoring the fact that killing people for $ is pretty messed up, that’s not even true. Capital punishment is significantly more expensive than life in prison.
So again, what are the benefits?
All of you advocating for the death penalty seem to be forgetting Commandment #6.
It does not say “Thou shalt not kill (except when you feel like it).”
It states: “THOU SHALT NOT KILL.”
That’s ironclad instructions from the big guy…
As surviver of rape I agree with most of the comments. 95% who get out of prison reoffend. I pray for healing for the victims; they have a hard road ahead of them. May God be with the victims and their families.
Put him on a horse!
Castration plain and simple and it’s not done with knives; though it should be with NO anesthesia but pill form given every day by a doctor and police officer watching to make sure this despicable degenerate lowlife gets the dose he deserves. How can anyone do such perverted acts??? Disgusting trash.
2 adults with every child everywhere might stop some of this abuse. No, it’s not impossible.
@Bob
And I posit to you what good is keeping this monster in a cage as opposed to not existing at all? Would you say the same to someone who tortured, raped, and killed a loved one of yours? I sure hope not. God taught us to forgive but even he had fun ways of dispatching people. Why fill up cages? If you can’t coexist and follow our laws why be here at all? Ever wonder why in the Middle Ages they didn’t have massive jails filled to the teeth with criminals? This is why.
Sound like someone needs to check bobs browser history
Bob you’re absolutely right we should just let this guy off and he can live with you and yours. Don’t worry if he tries anything with any of your family because it’s not a big deal right.
How about peace of mind Bob knowing he’s in jail or dead and he can’t hurt kids any more.
@ BoB. What “benefit” do you get from eliminating them from society? If these people are caught in the act, they need to go. #1 You make sure they don’t do this to another child….because they will. It’s not something that can be rehabilitated out of someone. #2. You don’t waste tax payer dollars on them that could be well spent somewhere else.
we got one at the County Jail that Raped at least 3 same girls over several years. Pieces of crap. People knew and did stop it. sick mostly men and the ones that knew!!!
Seriously?? He doesn’t deserve heaven. He sexually molested someone who looked at him like a Grampa…He doesn’t deserve heaven, leniency, forgiveness or anything like it… He’s scum and has ruined this childs life
I’m praying hard for the victim. I pray he gets all the therapy available to him as a victim. This monster will have his judgement!
@Jay @JTV
*sigh*
I always ask the same question every time I see bloodthirsty comments advocating for killing people, and no one ever seems to have an answer: why? What possible benefit would we, as a society, get that we wouldn’t receive by locking this guy up for life?
There’s still time for him to repent and go to heaven. Let us all be good Christians about this we can’t judge.
Someone needs to put this sickO out of his misery!!!!!
This individual will pay dearly for what he has done to this child. He will regret the day he was born when in jail the inmates will eventually get to him. This was the main reason he allowed them to live with him. I wish the parents of children would stress the importance of speaking up immediately when things like this happens. He should be at a local funeral home now.
It’s always someone you know.
Right in the head,Bam….Sick individual,..
Hang ‘Em High
Monster!! You deserve far more than you will probably receive! There is a special place for you! I promise it will be spicy!
