04.06.2011 – A note from Scott: First I would like to say that I have really enjoyed getting to speak with a number of you as our campaign for Mayor of Brooklyn Park moves forward.

I want to take some time now to discuss something from my past. In the interest of disclosure I want you to be aware of this issue.

About ten years ago I was working for a small business. After nearly eight months of working for this business, a disagreement arose over my compensation. I felt hurt, wronged and cheated. Rather than do the proper, responsible thing, I acted impulsively and committed a serious crime.  I confessed to this crime and immediately plead guilty. I paid a heavy but fair price for my actions. While it will always be a part of my past — it is not a part of who I am now; except to state that is a valuable and painful lesson that I learned.

Honor and trust are personal traits that are invaluable and yet they can be sold so cheaply. I know this first hand.

Like you, I do not take this matter lightly and now find myself in the unenviable position of not only asking for your vote but also asking for your understanding and forgiveness in this matter.
