Tenure Summary
Elizabeth Scott's documented GDC career spans two decades and three facilities. Per Georgia Department of Corrections position and salary records compiled by GPS, she entered as a Correctional Officer at Telfair State Prison in 2006, returned to Telfair as a Corrections Officer (WL) in 2015, and moved to Montgomery State Prison as a Correctional Sergeant from 2016 through 2019. She was listed as a Correctional Lieutenant in 2020 and 2021 and a Correctional Captain in 2022 and 2023 in postings with no facility named in the records, then re-appears at Montgomery State Prison as Correctional Captain, a role she held through July 30, 2024, before being promoted to Deputy Warden there on July 31, 2024. In January 2025 she is listed as Correctional Superintendent at Treutlen Probation Detention Center, and from June 1, 2025, as Superintendent there, with a further single-date Correctional Superintendent entry at Treutlen dated August 27, 2026.
One death is attributed to her leadership tenure: Dante Todd, 50, at Montgomery State Prison on July 12, 2026, recorded with the role of Deputy Warden at the time. All attributed deaths in her record — one of one — occurred at Montgomery State Prison; none is attributed to her Treutlen superintendent tenure. The records list no lawsuits naming her as a defendant, no news reports naming her, and no intel reports or intel events dated within her leadership tenure at either facility.
What happened on their watch
Montgomery State Prison — Correctional Captain, then Deputy Warden (through July 30, 2024; Deputy Warden from July 31, 2024)
Scott's progression at Montgomery runs from Correctional Sergeant (2016–2019) through Correctional Captain (listed through July 30, 2024) to Deputy Warden, a post the records show with no listed end date. During the Deputy Warden period, the record documents one death: Dante Todd, age 50, died at Montgomery State Prison on July 12, 2026. GPS records carry a cause-category code and no public narrative for the death, so no cause of death is stated here. Scott is recorded as holding the Deputy Warden role at Montgomery on that date. The structured records contain no intel reports or intel events dated within her leadership tenure at Montgomery, and no lawsuit naming her as a defendant in connection with any Montgomery death.
Treutlen Probation Detention Center — Correctional Superintendent / Superintendent (from January 2025; superintendent listing from June 1, 2025)
Scott's move to Treutlen Probation Detention Center places her in the facility-lead tier. The records attribute no deaths at Treutlen to her tenure — the single death attributed to her leadership service is the Montgomery matter above. As with Montgomery, the compiled records include no intel reports or intel events dated inside her Treutlen tenure, and no news coverage naming her in connection with that facility. Her position records at Treutlen include a Correctional Superintendent listing for 2025, a Superintendent listing beginning June 1, 2025 with no end date, and a separate single-date Correctional Superintendent entry dated August 27, 2026.
