Mr Black Posted June 2, 2006 #2 Share Posted June 2, 2006 He proberly had people on the outside threatning the warden and guards familys, if he didnt get what he wanted then there would be trouble. Even when mob bosses are in Prison they still run the show. By the time he went to Alcatraz maybe he lost his influence in the underworld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucidElement Posted June 7, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted June 7, 2006 no trust me, it wasnt he was running the show.. that dosent make sense.. espically with the threats.. all i can say is he was probably a great communicator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still say money had a lot to do with it. Pay off the guards and you get what you want. It is just the most logical answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
