In the dead of night on June 11, 1962, three cunning inmates (Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin) pulled off the most daring prison break in American history from the seemingly impenetrable fortress of Alcatraz Island.

With nothing but crude tools made from spoons, a stolen drill motor, and fierce determination, they spent months chiseling through the thick prison walls, hiding their progress behind cardboard façades. Using over 50 stolen raincoats, they ingeniously stitched together a life raft and life vests.

Slipping through a narrow utility corridor, they climbed up plumbing pipes, made it to the roof, and vanished into the icy, treacherous waters of San Francisco Bay. Despite a massive manhunt, they were never seen again. Authorities claimed they drowned, but no bodies were ever found, fueling decades of speculation that the impossible escape may have actually succeeded.

A man of chilling contradictions — known in his community for spending time with male sex workers, drug users, and petty criminals. His efforts appeared sincere, often offering guidance and support to help them overcome addiction or escape lives of crime. He even served as chairman of the local Crime Prevention and Neighborhood Association in the early 1980s, actively encouraging neighborhood watch patrols and community vigilance. Yet beneath this facade of civic responsibility and compassion lurked a disturbed predator. Just a few years later, Robert would begin a reign of terror as a serial killer, luring vulnerable young men under the pretense of help, only to subject them to horrific acts of rape, torture, and ultimately, death — all while maintaining the appearance of a model citizen.

In the 1980s, a cunning and elusive killer slipped through the cracks of the justice system multiple times. Known to police for petty crimes— drug possession and assault—he was arrested on several occasions but never held long enough to uncover his darker deeds. Each time, authorities saw only a repeat offender, not realizing they had a serial murderer in their custody. It wasn’t until years later that the horrifying truth surfaced: they'd had the killer in their grasp more than once—and let him walk free.

For two relentless years, a serial killer terrorized the gay community, averaging roughly one victim a month. His weapon of choice was always a knife, and his attacks were brutally personal—each stabbing carried out with a frenzy that suggested both rage and ritual. The victims were found discarded close to interstates, each scene marked by the same savage violence. The cold consistency of his attacks made one thing terrifyingly clear: he wouldn’t stop until he was caught—or dead.
