Escape From Alcatraz: Did the 3 Men Really Survive?

On June 12, 1962, Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin vanished from Alcatraz, leaving dummy heads made of soap, toothpaste and real hair in their beds. The FBI concluded they drowned, but the U.S. Marshals case is still open and new evidence keeps surfacing. In this full investigation: the spoon-dug tunnels, the accordion trick, the 50-raincoat raft, why Allen West was left behind, the FBI manhunt and its 1979 conclusion, the buried Marin County police reports, the 2014 Delft University tide simulation, the 1975 photo from Brazil, and the 2013 letter signed "John Anglin". Which theory do YOU believe? Comment 1, 2 or 3: 1. The raft failed and all three drowned in the bay 2. They landed at Horseshoe Bay and vanished inside the United States 3.
