Great find and provides a much more complete picture. If he lost those suits, he’d owe about $500k from what I can tell. That’s an immense financial pressure and loss. It certainly paints a more full picture of the strain he may have been under.I’ve been following this case since summer. Information is limited and the above video summarises well IMO the many questions one may have concerning this strange disappearance.
What is missing though from that video is the public information available around financial issues and companies.
Scott appears to be linked to a number of companies that borrowed money apparently early 2024, and then breached the contract. The available public information comes from Trellis Law:

I do not know if these financial problems are linked or not to his disappearance, which seems out of character, but as this is out public info I think it is worth considering.
We do not know if he is missing voluntarily or not. But as the above video underlines, he went out at 8:13, in again at 8:23, but is nowhere in the building so he must have left via an exit without camera, possibly dressed differently, possibly then using another car (whether being the one driving or not).
He did not use his access card in and out, IMO it could be because he just went out to pick sth from his car and forgot his wallet inside.
I leave all other speculation out and agree that this case deserves more attention, but I cannot blame LE for hinting that he may have disappeared voluntarily, at least in the beginning.
I really hope Scott is safe somewhere and that his family gets answers.
Oh dear. This is the first credible evidence that could lead one to surmise that he had a reasonable cause to either harm himself or go underground. I don’t leap to conclusions easily, so by no means am I settled on a theory, but in a case with scarce information, this feels quite important.I’ve been following this case since summer. Information is limited and the above video summarises well IMO the many questions one may have concerning this strange disappearance.
