Note: Ulrich K. Quast, an auto salesman who took L. Ewing Scott and his wife, Evelyn, for a test drive along Mulholland in 1955, was probably the last person who saw her alive aside from her killer. As far as he was concerned, it was an ordinary sales call.

I'd like to extend a special thanks to Sandi Gibbons of the Los Angeles County district attorney's office for granting me access to the Scott material.
