The FBI started monitoring those addresses and wiretapping those phones with no results. Prospects didn't look good for the three escapees. Considering it was both practical and sentimental, the packet seemed too important to jettison. If the brothers weren't holding on to these mementos, that must mean they drowned.

The public quickly came to terms with that theory But behind the scenes, there was a different story, at least according to former San Francisco police officer Robert Checke.

Suddenly, a beam flashed from the deck. Chucky realized a man was shining a flashlight into the water, but he didn't understand why. He watched in confusion as the boat took off into the darkness.
