Wanted Sex Offender Who Faked His Death Could Be in Colorado

An accused sex offender, who authorities believe faked his own death, could be in Colorado.

43-year-old Jacob Blair Scott is on the U.S, Marshals 15 Most Wanted list. He vanished off the coast of Alabama in what looked like a boating accident. Now it's believed he faked his death to avoid prosecution for the possible rape of his 14-year-old step daughter. Before he went missing, he took $45,000 out of the bank.

Accusations against Scott were made after his stepdaughter became pregnant.

Authorities says the military veteran is considered armed and dangerous. He may be in Colorado, Nevada or closer to his home in Louisiana or Mississippi.
