According to Allen West’s claims, the inmates planned to reach Angel Island. The 2011 National Geographic piece revealed that there was evidence of their landing there on that night.

Where Are They Now?

The fate of the three Alcatraz escapees, Frank Lee Morris, John Anglin and Clarence Anglin might never come to the surface. We’re still not sure if police ever made contact with the person who wrote that eerie letter. If they were to be alive today, then Frank Lee Morris, John Anglin and Clarence Anglin, would be 90, 86, and 87 respectively. This is a mystery that still lives on in American history.
