Alcatraz Escape: In June 1962, three inmates—John Angland, Clarence Angland, and Frank Morris—successfully escaped from the notorious Alcatraz prison, a feat previously deemed impossible.
Mysterious Letter: In 2013, a letter claiming to be from John Angland was sent to the San Francisco Police Department, prompting a renewed investigation into the infamous escape.
Escape Plan: The escape involved creating human-like dummies to deceive guards, digging through cell walls, and constructing a raft from over 50 old raincoats.
Fate Uncertain: Despite extensive investigations, including a 2015 documentary, the ultimate fate of the escapees remains unknown, with theories suggesting they may have drowned or successfully evaded capture.
Inconclusive Evidence: The FBI’s analysis of the letter from Angland yielded inconclusive results, leaving the authenticity of the claim unresolved.
Survival Theories: Some researchers suggest that water currents on the night of the escape may have favored the inmates, providing a slim chance of survival despite the frigid conditions of San Francisco Bay.
