What happened to the prisoners when Alcatraz closed down?

Today it's a National Park site, visited by 5,000 people a day. The federal prison closed down in 1963 because it was too expensive to maintain. The island sat idle until 1969, when a group of American Indian activists from many tribes occupied the island in an act of Civil Disobedience until 1971. In 1972, it became a National Park site.
