    The Hollywood Bandit: The Absolutely True Tale of Washington’s Most Prolific Bank Robber

    The tale of the infamous Hollywood Bandit seems to be just that, a tale. A tale of high-speed chases, police shootouts, elaborate disguises, unrelenting law officials, double lives, flamboyant tree houses, and adrenaline junkies. A screenplay in the making. And that is exactly how Scott Scurlock liked it.

    With a very lucrative amount of money coming in from drug operations, Scurlock no longer worried about future education. Using this new money, he began designing and building his infamous three story, 60-foot treehouse on land located close to Evergreen. The treehouse itself was described as “Robin Hood land.” Decks meandered on and on, a fireman’s pole led to the lower levels and the ground, the windows were as tall as full-grown men, there was even running water and bathtubs! It looked like something taken right out of a fairy tale. Scurlock continued building and travelling. If anyone ever asked, he told them he worked in construction.

    William Scott Scurlock lived for adventure. Born and raised in Virginia, he moved to Olympia in 1978 to attend school at The Evergreen State College. Studying to become a doctor, he soon became involved with illegal substances. After being granted his own lab on campus (an honor not everyone received), Scurlock would sneak in after hours to make crystalized methamphetamine.
