Head of Exxon's shale oil business faces sexual assault charge in Texas
David Scott, 49, was arrested at a hotel in Magnolia, Texas. He oversees Exxon's shale oil and gas production business, a unit involved in merger talks with Pioneer Natural Resources.
The head of Exxon Mobil's (XOM.N) shale oil and gas business, a unit involved in merger talks with rival Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD.N), was arrested at a Texas hotel last week on a sexual assault charge, police said.
David Scott, an Exxon senior vice president who oversees all its shale oil and gas production business, was arrested early Thursday morning at a La Quinta Inn & Suites hotel in Magnolia, Texas, the Montgomery Sheriff's Office said.
Efforts to reach Scott were unsuccessful. It was not immediately clear if he had legal representation.
If only we could arrest people based on soulless, demonic gazes, this could've been avoided.
I don't agree with you, because that's a terrifying precedent, but he looks exactly like I would imagine an Exxon executive would look.
I don't agree with myself either in this case.
They don't just rape the earth it seems
Rooms at the hotel cost about $120 a night.
You know, in case anyone's looking for a room. Thanks Reuters
Honestly though, why was he there? So many nicer hotels that an oil exec can afford
An exec in a $120 hotel room could only be a guy seeing a sex-worker. No other explanation makes sense.
Weird as fuck to see a small town near me to be on the front page lol
La Quinta?
