The story of a man inspired by a movie to carry out 19 bank robberies in Seattle in the 1990s is now being told on the small screen in a Netflix documentary set to premier this Wednesday.Between 1992 and 1996, William Scott Scurlock stole around $2.3 million while wearing a range of elaborate disguises that allowed him to evade police and earned him the nickname 'Hollywood'.
According to the Washington Secretary of State, Scurlock spent a lot of his money around town while also giving it away to environmental causes, thinking of himself as a 'Robin Hood' character.Despite multiple attempts to catch him between 1994 and 1996, Scurlock managed to evade law enforcement until Thanksgiving that later year.On November 27, 1996, Scurlock and his associates walked into the Seafirst Bank in Lake City.
