An Exxon Mobil executive faces a second-degree felony sexual assault charge after his arrest at a hotel outside Houston, authorities said on Monday. David Scott, 49, of Spring, Texas, was arrested early Thursday at a La Quinta Inn & Suites in Magnolia and is being held on a $30,000 bond, the Montgomery Country Sheriff's Office said Monday in a news release.
An employee of Exxon for more than 26 years, Scott is a senior vice president of the oil giant's upstream shale business, according to his Linkedin page. Exxon is reportedly in discussions to acquire Pioneer Natural Resources in a bid to ramp up its shale business, but Scott's role in the deal potentially worth as much as $60 billion was not clear.
