On Monday, December 14, 2020, the body of 58-year-old Roy Redford was found in Richmond, Indiana. Redford, a truck driver who lived in Canaseraga, New York, had been shot; authorities in Indiana treated his death as a homicide and opened an investigation that crossed state lines.

Investigators quickly focused on a person from Redford’s hometown. Fifty-year-old Josephine Scott of Canaseraga was identified as the primary person of interest and was located in Belmont, New York. She was arrested on December 18, 2020, and charged with Redford’s murder; New York authorities began extradition proceedings to send her to Indiana to face those charges.

The case attracted notice because both the victim and the accused came from the same small New York community while the killing occurred roughly five hundred miles away in Indiana. Does anyone from Canaseraga or the area know Roy Redford or Josephine Scott and have information that could help clarify what led to this killing?
