The date was June 12, 1962 . Three prisoners had escaped from the 'escape proof' prison at Alcatraz. They had left behind dummy faces in their bunks. The prisoners were Frank Lee Morris, John William Anglin and Clarence Anglin. The prisoners were quite ingenious, they had taken rubber raincoats and made a raft. This was the last that was ever heard from these three men. The authorities think they drowned, but did they?

The FBI has released 1757 pages of documents on the case under the Freedom of Information Act. I have included these documents here for your enjoyment. Have fun digging through them. You will need a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat. You can get it HERE for free.
