James R. Scott was convicted in November of removing sandbags from a Mississippi River levee during the 1993 floods, causing millions of dollars in damage and closing the only bridge for 100 miles that connected Missouri and Illinois. According to a witness at Scott's trial, Scott, of Fowler, Ill., did it to strand his wife in Missouri "so he could have a party at his house."
