Relatives have ‘proof’ Alcatraz escapees are still alive

Alcatraz officials have long stated that the men drowned, maintaining the prison’s bragging rights of no escapees. But now, more than 50 years later, new leads are being presented by the Anglin family, who are cooperating with authorities for the first time.
They claim that not only did the brothers survive the escape, they were alive and well up through at least the mid-1970s — and may still be alive today.
The evidence is offered up by the Anglins’ nephews David, 48, and Ken Widner, 54, who are featured in “Alcatraz: Search for the Truth,” a History Channel special airing Monday. The evidence has pumped life into the cold case, and has investigators lining up new interviews and planning to search South America for signs of America’s most notorious escapees.

And, why would we believe the “Alcatraz officials”?
Like with murder cases, it’s very hard to convict without a body.
And, from time to time, we hear of folks who have disappeared completely.
Personally, without proof, all we have is assertions and presumptions.
