Wikipedia: The United States Disciplinary Barracks on Alcatraz was
acquired by the United States Department of Justice on October 12,
1933, and the island became a federal prison in August 1934. Alcatraz
was designed to hold prisoners who continuously caused trouble at
other federal prisons. At 9:40 am in the morning of August 11, 1934,
the first batch of 137 prisoners arrived at Alcatraz, arriving by
railroad from the United States Penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kansas
at Santa Venetia, California, before being escorted to Alcatraz,
handcuffed in high security coaches and guarded by some 60 special
FBI agents, U.S. Marshals and railway security officials. Most of the
prisoners were notorious bank robbers and murderers. The prison
initially had a staff of 155, including the first warden James A.
Johnston and associate warden J. E. Shuttleworth, both considered to
be "iron men". The staff were highly trained in security,
but not rehabilitation.
During the 29 years it was in use, the jail held some of the most
notorious criminals in American history, such as Al Capone, Robert
Franklin Stroud (the Birdman of Alcatraz), George "Machine Gun"
Kelly, Bumpy Johnson, Rafael Cancel Miranda (a member of the Puerto
Rican Nationalist Party who attacked theUnited States Capitol
building in 1954), Mickey Cohen, Arthur R. "Doc" Barker,
James "Whitey" Bulger, and Alvin "Creepy" Karpis
(who served more time at Alcatraz than any other inmate). It also
provided housing for the Bureau of Prisons staff and their families.
During its 29
years of operation, the penitentiary claimed that no prisoner
successfully escaped. A total of 36 prisoners made 14 escape
attempts, two men trying twice; 23 were caught alive, six were shot
and killed during their escape, two drowned, and five are listed as
"missing and presumed drowned". The most violent occurred
on May 2, 1946, when a failed escape attempt by six prisoners led to
the Battle of Alcatraz.
