But the FBI also disputed that any agents attended the funeral. The FBI did technically keep the case open until 1979. Their official conclusion, the men did not escape alive. However, the case was reassigned to the US Marshals Service who kept getting new leads. In 1990, one of the Anglins' family friends, Fred Breezy, gave them a photograph he'd been holding onto since 1975.

Allegedly, it showed John and Clarence in Brazil. They had long hair, sideburns, and sunglasses. Breezy said he'd bumped into them at a bar and learned they were working on their own farm. The Anglin family believed his account. U.S. Marshals weren't so sure. Initially, the sunglasses and beards made it impossible to truly identify the men.

But in 2020, an Irish ad agency teamed up with an AI company and ran the photo through their facial recognition technology as a promotion. Their algorithms concluded the men in the photo were the Anglin brothers. We can't know the accuracy of this project, but perhaps they were out there living their lives and maybe they were ready to resurface.

In 2013, the San Francisco Police Department received an unmarked handwritten letter. It read, in part, My name is John Anglin. I escaped from Alcatraz in June 1962 with my brother Clarence and Frank Morris. I'm 83 years old and in bad shape. I have cancer. Yes, we all made it that night, but barely.

If you announce on TV that I will be promised to first go to jail for no more than a year and get medical attention, I will write back to let you know exactly where I am. This is no joke. Reportedly, authorities compared this message to a sample of John England's handwriting and even checked for fingerprints. The results were inconclusive. So they never responded to the sender.

Perhaps they worried what they might find. John Englund, still alive. Proof that the FBI failed to catch three of the most wanted fugitives of all time. Notably, they didn't release any of this to the public until 2018, five years after the letter arrived. In all this, no one ever heard from Frank Morris, just the Anglin brothers.

And it's worth noting that as of 2025, two of the Anglin nephews have published books on the escape, and other family members have given interviews for news media and TV documentaries. But that doesn't mean it's not true. As you may recall, Frank didn't have friends or family on the outside, so if he made it out, he could have lived truly incognito.

There was no reason for him to risk getting caught. And if you believe the U.S. Marshals, there is still a risk. In 2022, the organization released age-progressed photos of the three escapees. they're still looking. In fact, the official statement is that the U.S.
