Scotty Nathaniel Sanchez was born on July 31st back in 1974, to two young teens. Peter and Gina Sanchez had met and fallen in love during their freshman year of high school. However, they had fallen within the wrong crowd and became addicted to both drugs and alcohol. During their Junior year of high school, both at their lowest point, Gina had surprised Peter by telling him she was pregnant with their first and only child. 

It was Gina’s choice to go along with the pregnancy, she didn’t want to become a mother but the young woman decided that maybe it was time to get a fresh start. In the beginning of her pregnancy, Gina and Peter were doing really well. The two stopped hanging out with the wrong people, and started to get their lives together. Being only eighteen, it was tough to take on the kind of responsibility they were going too take on,  but the two were doing it. Peter found a job as a mechanic, working on cars while getting his grades back up, while Gina found a job as full time nanny to a wonderful family.

The two had been doing really good, they were getting their life back on track to provide a happy, healthy and loving home for their first child. Sure Gina and Peter were terrified to become parents, but they were going to pull through. On that hot summer’s evening, that’s when the young couple had welcomed their first and only child. Together Peter and Gina had brought Scotty Nathaniel Sanchez into this World.  He was their perfect little thing, and the moment Scotty was placed in Gina’s arms, that was her snap back into reality. That was the moment Peter and Gina realized that loving alcohol and drugs wasn’t worth it. So they both gave it up for good. 

It was for the better that Peter and Gina gave up their old ways, in all honesty it had helped Scotty in the long run. He ended up having a good childhood, they worked hard and cherished him. They took care of him and provided him a happy and loving home. Growing up, Scotty got good grades in school and from an early age he knew what he wanted to do in life. He enjoyed sports, and was on the basketball and baseball team.  The young kid was an active student and was always on honor roll. He enjoyed being on the Yearbook Committee during his freshman year of high school, and even ran for class president. To say he was pretty much the golden boy of his grade was an understatment. Sure popularity was nice but it didn’t mean anything to him, his grades did however so he worked hard. He worked hard and had gotten accepted into Columbia University in New York City during his junior year. Senior year is where he had excelled the most. After graduating, it was that summer where he moved into his own apartment in New York to study at Columbia that changed his life for the better. 

It was at Columbia University where his life began. At least, that’s what he thought. His life didn’t begin until he had met Alyssa Conway.  She was tall, light skinned and beautiful, just his type and Scotty fell in love with her. He fell head over heels the moment they met. The two dated for a few years, but then Scotty had finally got up the courage to ask her to marry him after they graduated. She had graduated from Columbia with a degree in English, while he ended up graduating from the Police Academy and becoming a Detective. 

She of course said yes, but you know the saying. First comes love, then comes marriage and—-, Scotty and Alyssa had welcomed Violet Grace Sanchez. The first eleven months of Violet’s life was perfect. A little right after her first birthday however, Alyssa was driving both her and Violet home from their Doctors appointment when a semi truck had hit her car and the two sadly passed on impact. It had destroyed Scotty, absolutely devastated him. Loosing not only the love of his life, but his daughter as well. Both Alyssa and Violet gone.

Scotty became cynical, hot-headed and a bit of a workaholic. Cracking case after case. Working hours on end. It wasn’t until his main boss had told him to maybe get out of the city, go somewhere new. So he found Castleport, North Carolina and had decided to take the old Sargent’s spot. Scotty has been in Castleport for eleven years and has been enjoying the peace and quiet of town.
