Words from an Alcatraz Employee
In a riveting turn of events, Jim Albright, the final guard to bid farewell to the infamous Alcatraz, decided to spill some beans. To mark the 55th commemoration of the prison’s closure in March 2018, Albright relented to an intriguing interview. The burning question on everyone’s lips – did he think Anglin and his crew had the mettle to survive their daring escape? His response was awaited with bated breath.

“Undeniably, those men were swallowed by the sea,” Albright asserted passionately during the interview. His stance was unshakeable – the notion of their safe escape was implausible. He was convinced that the so-called John Anglin letter was a desperate cry for help, a last-ditch effort by a dying man seeking salvation in the form of cancer treatment through any means necessary.
