@factsofnews: In 2013, more than 50 years after the famous 1962 Alcatraz escape, a handwritten letter was sent to a San Francisco police station by someone claiming to be John Anglin, one of the three men who escaped the prison. The writer said all three men had survived the escape and offered to reveal his location in exchange for a limited prison sentence and medical treatment. The letter created renewed interest in one of America’s most famous prison mysteries, but its authenticity was never confirmed. The FBI examined the letter, and handwriting analysis was inconclusive. The U.S. Marshals Service later said the claim was without merit, while the FBI’s official history continues to list the three escapees as missing. Their ultimate fate remains unresolved. . #Alcatraz #CrimeHistory #UnsolvedMystery #AmericanHistory #TrueCrime
