On the evening of Wednesday, December 21, 2022, deputies responded to the Suburban Studios Hotel on West Lucas Street in Florence, South Carolina, after reports of a shooting. There they found 37-year-old James Quashone Shon Scott, a Darlington resident, suffering from a gunshot wound. He was transported to a local hospital and later died of his injuries.

James Quashone Shon Scott was born March 11, 1985, in Florence and grew up in the Darlington area. A member of the Darlington County Public Schools class of 2003, he was described by those who knew him as loving, caring, and giving, and was a father to four children.
