Capt. Anthony M. Scott was appointed Monday to serve as the 21st superintendent of ISP. Scott was born and raised in Rush County, Indiana. He graduated Rushville High School in 1992 and then earned a bachelor of science degree in accounting from Cumberland College.
According to a news release, Scott was accepted into the 54th Indiana State Police Recruit School in July 1996. He was appointed as a trooper and assigned to the Versailles Post in December 1996.
