For nearly 30 years, Alcatraz Island was a federal prison that housed the likes of Al Capone. But it was also home for a select few children whose parents worked as guards. Now some of those former residents are recounting their fascinating experiences to InsideEdition.com. For Chuck Stucker, who grew up on the island, it "was not a whole lot different than people who grew up on a small military base." Leigh Scheps ( / leightvreporter ) has more. #InsideEdition

  • Very cool video! I've always heard and believed that the majority of criminals(especially back then), wouldn't hurt children and can actually be very protective of children...I guess one of the reasons why inmates that have hurt children usually have to be separated from general population so they won't be killed by other inmates. It was probably a joy for the inmates to get to interact with children. These days, with all the crazies in the world hurting children...it would probably be a more scary situation.

  • I worked for the Texas Dept of Corrections and this reminds me of one of the academy sgts who grew up at that very unit, his dad was a warden so he lived in a house outside the gates not far from the unit. He said for as long as he could remember all he ever wanted to do was grow up to work at the prison, for the simple reason that although as kids they could go some places around the unit (he and his brother as grade schoolers would drive one of the farm trucks down to the hog farm to dig worms to go fishing!) There was one strict rule they had to obey. During the time the field crews were turning out and going back into the unit he and his brother had to be inside the house (probably because unlike trustees who also actually lived outside the gates because they had earned that through good behavior , the field squads were the lowest jobs so those guys were either too new to have earned a better job, got I'm too much trouble etc). Anyway the real point of all this rambling was, he described how from the time he was 3 or 4 he remembered watching the big Field crews turn out; a hundred men guarded by two field bosses, and he thought those field bosses were the coolest guys in the world, like superheroes to him because two guards were in charge of all these guys coming outside the gates and working in the fields and from his little boy view from the window "no one tried to run away" he looked at them like they were Gods and all he ever wanted to do was be able to do that job. And yes that little boy who gazed in awe at the field bosses with their crews not only grew up to be a field boss but eventually was a trainer in the academy teaching all the new classes of future correctional officers! Hope you all liked this story!

My partner and I went to Alcatraz in very early September the weather was perfect, clear warm and sunny and I will remember that trip for ever ( dementia permitting!) I can't get enough information about Alcatraz, reading / watching avidly everything I can find. The audiotour ( self guided) is First Class, we took our time, as we went on the first tour of the day it was comparatively quite. The whole place really got under my skin, the presence of both evil and good was tangible. A DON'T MISS experience. Thanks for this video x

    • @@laprietayelguero I think it meant that if the children travelled off of the island with their parents and they got separated from them, the police would believe the children and return them to Alcatraz. The dog tags helped to identify them and provided proof they did indeed live on the island rather than the mainland.
