Stilwell Residents Sentenced For Child Exploitation And Neglect

MUSKOGEE, OKLAHOMA – The United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma announced that Samuel Shane Allgood, age 37, and Shannon Rae Scraper, age 45, both of Stilwell, Oklahoma, were sentenced in federal district court.

Allgood was sentenced to 360 months in prison for one count of Sexual Exploitation of a Child/Use of a Child to Produce a Visual Depiction.

Scraper was sentenced to 60 months in prison for one count of Child Neglect in Indian Country.

The charge arose from an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Adair County Sheriff’s Office.

On May 20, 2025, Allgood and Scraper pleaded guilty to the charges.  According to investigators, Allgood coerced the victim into engaging in sexually explicit conduct with the purpose of producing a visual depiction of that conduct.  Investigators also established that Scraper willfully and maliciously failed to provide the child, who was in her care, with adequate nurturance and affection, supervision, or appropriate caretakers, and failed to protect the child from sexual acts and materials.

The crimes occurred in Adair County, within the boundaries of the Cherokee Nation Reservation, in the Eastern District of Oklahoma.

The Honorable Ronald A. White, Chief U.S. District Judge in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, presided over the hearings. Allgood and Scraper will remain in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service pending transportation to a designated United States Bureau of Prisons facility to serve non-paroleable sentences of incarceration.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Emily Wittlinger represented the United States.
