"She could hear TJ screaming in the background and saying 'I'm not putting up with your kid (expletive) in his pants anymore. He's 4-years-old. He's a little old to be doing this.' Amber said 'just clean it up' and 'I'll take care of it when I get home,'"kathryn Averitt, coworker.
Scott's coworker says the little boy then told his mom he got "whooped real bad." The coworker says not too long after that phone call, Amber Scott got another call at work about a car accident in North Las Vegas and that her little boy was dead.
The two other children who were living in the home are still in protective custody.

I know Amber. She is a good person and a responsible, loving mother. I hate how the media is acting like she had a part in this. She is a loving mother. The only thing she did wrong was put trust in that guy. Im sure the guilt from that alone is killing her. I love you Amber and Trenton,I hope you make it through this. -Mandy

Love Mandy.
