This reporter was unaware that Federal Prisons can no longer hold prisoners, & the only possible recourse is to put The Rock back in business. The only recent escapes from Federal Prisons? Low-security, minimum-risk inmates leaving satellite camps, to quote a robot.

And a human:
Peterson noted that escapes from minimum-security facilities, like halfway houses, are much more common than those at jails and prisons. Federal data shows escape offenses accounted for less than one percent (0.4%) of all federal offenses between 2017 and 2021.
Think of the hundreds of convicts Trump pardoned. Maybe Alcatraz will be reserved for all the Democrats, "antifa" & others he keeps saying should be locked up. This reporter will not be taken alive.
