OUTAGAMIE COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) – Cash bond has been set at $750,000 for a 58-year-old Appleton man accused of killing a woman who lived with him.
Johnny Scott is charged with First Degree Intentional Homicide and Second Degree Recklessly Endangering Safety for allegedly shooting Annie Ford multiple times early Thursday.
Officers responded to the house three times that night, reportedly due to an ongoing argument over money. Scott allegedly claimed Ford stole $800 from him.
Ford’s 15-year-old son was home at the time and reportedly heard the gunshots, seconds later finding his mother on the floor.
Scott allegedly also threatened Ford’s son with the weapon.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for September 28.
