This week, we begin our three-part series in which Alcatraz will be covered at length, from the torturous conditions of the prison to the infamous escapes — both successful and failed.

We're kicking off the series by talking about the types of people who ended up on Alcatraz, starting with one of its best known prisoners: Robert Stroud AKA "The Birdman of Alcatraz".
