Details about Scott’s disappearance have been slow to surface. Montana’s Department of Justice confirmed Friday that it issued a “missing or endangered person advisory” on Dec. 26, the day the FBI requested one, which was nearly two weeks after Scott went missing.

The advisory ended Dec. 27. Local, non-federal, law enforcement officers weren’t familiar with the specifics of the report Friday.
