Escaped Alcatraz or Died Trying? (Episode #34)

Alcatraz Prison, deemed inescapable during its 29-year stint as an American federal prison, was situated on an isolated island surrounded by cold, rough waters. Despite 13 other escape attempts by dozens of other inmates (including 2 who tried twice), Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin may have successfully escaped on June 11, 1962, evading capture through meticulous planning, deception, and ingenuity. Their fate, whether they survived and lived as free men, remains a #mystery.
