Escaping Alcatraz
According to the Museum Collection at The Rock: Alcatraz Island Golden Gate National Recreation Area there were no trace of John Anglin, Clarence Anglin, and Frank Morris, who broke out together on June 11, 1962, was ever found. The next morning on June 12, 1962 sailors on a merchant freighter reported seeing a body floating in the bay, but the body slipped beneath the waves before it could be recovered. Their fate remains a mystery. Their remains were never found, and there is also no evidence they survived. Surveillance never detected them in their hometowns or at any family gatherings. Laura Sullivan on September 22 2009 in an artical Mystery Still Swirls Around Alcatraz Escape part two of a two part series reported that the strongest lead may be this: In half a century, there has not been one single, credible piece of evidence that Morris and the Anglin brothers ever set footy on dry land-even for an hour. Laura Sullivan also quoted what U.S. Marshal Michael Dyke said. He said "To this date, [there's] nothing concrete that they're alive or that they even made it"
