A Tampa native and lifelong resident of Hillsborough County, he has served the community and country for 25 years, upholding the rule of law in and out of the courtroom, on and off the battlefield and throughout all branches of government.

A lieutenant colonel in the United States Army Reserve, he also serves as a commander in the Judge Advocate General’s Corps.
“Over the course of my 20 years in the military, I have served multiple tours of duty in both Iraq and Afghanistan and was awarded the Bronze Star Medal,” he said. “As a military magistrate, I presided over hundreds of military-commissioned war tribunals and as a judge advocate I helped advance the rule of law and uphold human rights in countries abroad.”
Scionti has held various positions of public trust as a lawyer, soldier and judge and has a proven record in maintaining the fair and impartial administration of justice.
“I have always performed my duties and responsibilities with the highest level of integrity, demonstrated a strong understanding of the law and applied a fair-minded, common sense approach to my decision-making,” he said. “I believe the depth and breadth of my legal and judicial experience has given me the necessary balance, perspective and problem-solving skills to make me an effective judge.”
