Scott Nelson Cadle[2] is an American politician and a former Republican member of the West Virginia House of Delegates representing the 13th District from 2012 to 2016 and again from 2018 until 2020.
Cadle made national news in 2016 for sharing and drinking unpasteurized milk, after voting for a law that legalized it in West Virginia.[3] Cadle claimed that any illness from consuming the milk was a coincidence.[3] He was later reprimanded by the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources in connection with the incident.[4]
In 2018, Cadle was named as an assistant majority whip by Speaker Roger Hanshaw.[5]
In 2020, Cadle voted against the creation of an intermediate court of appeals.[6][7] Later that year, Cadle joined six fellow Delegates in a letter to Governor Jim Justice, expressing concern over the use of emergency gubernatorial powers during the coronavirus pandemic.[8]
