Funeral Services Set For Michael Scott

CHICAGO (AP) ― Funeral services have been set for former Chicago Board of Education President Michael Scott.

Visitation and a private service will be Saturday at Holy Family Church in Chicago. A public memorial will be Sunday at the Chicago campus of the University of Illinois.

Scott's body was found earlier this week partially submerged in the Chicago River. A .380-caliber handgun was nearby.

The Cook County medical examiner's office has ruled the 60-year-old's death a suicide. But a group of community activists have said they don't believe Scott killed himself.

Chicago police continued their investigation, but haven't found evidence Scott was the victim of a crime.

Scott, who's been called lifelong public servant, was appointed to the school board three times.
