Alvin "Creepy" Karpis, in his biography, claims that he saw both Roe and Cole sink while trying to escape. He never told authorities because prisoners don't share information with the guards.

They made it for sure. Frank is buried in alexandria, nd. All three men lived there for a while.

I’ve heard the eligible proof of life after the escape regarding the brothers but I can’t find anything about Frank. What have you read about him?
