Cold-Hearted Criminal
A woman in Muncie, Ind., called police to report a man she knew had offered her $750 to have sex with him if at least one of her children watched. “She gave us the location of the motel and the time,” a police official said. “We had officers meet him there and apprehend him.” Robert Scott Troxell, 34, told officers the sex offer was a joke, but when they arrested him they found $750 in cash and a motel room key in his pocket. After he was charged with several sex crimes he resigned from his side job; less than a year before, Troxell, a funeral parlor owner, was elected county coroner.
