When did frank morris die?
That is one of life's mysteries. All we do know is that Morris, a career criminal, escaped from Alcatraz prison in 1962. Such an escape was dangerous, and also rarely successful; but in Morris's case, he was never seen again, nor was his body recovered. (Note that some people have claimed to see him since 1962, and various TV shows have advanced a number of unproven theories, but at this point, we still do not know with certainty what happened to him.)
Were the people who escaped Alcatraz island alive made it to shore?
Even though the 62' Escape trio was officially believed to have drowned, several factors have concluded that they could have survived. For example, in 1962, John Paul Scott escaped from the prison and swam successfully to the shore around Fort Point. Might I add that he nearly died from the severe shock from the cold water. He was later taken from the hospital and returned to Alcatraz. Also, in an episode of Myth Busters, it was confirmed that the party of 3 could successfully row a makeshift raft to the shores of the Marin Headlands. So yes, it is entirely possible that the escapees could have survived.
