In March 2018, Jim Albright, the last guard of Alcatraz, shared captivating insights with San Francisco’s ABC 7 on the 55th anniversary of the prison’s closure. When asked about the infamous escape, Albright offered a unique perspective. “It depends on whether you’re talking to me or their mother,” he mused.

With a solemn tone, he firmly believed that the escapees had met their demise in the icy waters surrounding the island. Yet, Albright speculated that the enigmatic letter-writer, seeking attention for his cancer treatment, might be breathing new life into the mystery. Alcatraz, a place of legends and secrets, continues to intrigue.
