Robert Leonard Ewing Scott (July 27, 1897 – August 15, 1987) was an American convicted murderer.
In July 1955, Leonard Scott began a relationship with a divorcée named Harriet Livermore.
Having been indicted by a Los Angeles grand jury on 13 counts of forgery and theft, but released on $25,000 bail, Scott fled to Canada.
Rosaire Baillargeon of the Canadian customs authorities stopped him as he was re-entering Canada at Windsor Ontario after a visit to Detroit to buy a car.
Although Evelyn's body was never found, her dentures, eyeglasses, and some of her personal items were found among buried ashes near the incinerator on the couple's estate located at 217 North Bentley Ave., in the affluent Bel Air community of Los Angeles.
