Nantucket resident Thomas Johnson, 38, built a 136 square foot underground three room dwelling eight feet below ground beneath a Boy Scout camp. Police flagged code violations and eviction now underway with a 90 day timeline. Johnson, who says secluded life brought peace, has tied histories to multiple underground homes across the U.S. and a prior Italian drug conviction.
