Circumstantial Corpus. Shortly after the police started looking into Evelyn's disappearance, a Los Angeles grand jury indicted Scott on 13 counts of forgery and theft. Jumping $25,000 bail, he fled to Canada. A year later Canadian customs officers arrested him as he was trying to re-enter Canada after buying a new 1957 Ford in Detroit.
