The escapees planed to get out of there cells by going throw the air vent in the back of there cells. And to fool the guards the wood make dumies out of the old rotten rock from the air vent. And for a even bigger problem was to go through the cold freezing water that can numb parts of your body instenly. So the escapees planed to barow as many rain coats as the could. And then one of the escapees who had privledges of the closemaking shop. So one of them sewed the raincoats together so it could be a raft. and then they would use the wood shelves in there cells for a paddle. one of the guards toled the warden that Frank Lee Morris was talking to Allen West a lot. So the warden Said to split them both up in different cells that were not next to achotheir. and the warden said to split them up the night that they were leaving with the Anglins. On the night When they were leaving through the air vent they Had to stay for the head count so they because their plan was to seave when they go to sleep. So when all of the guards were done with the Head count they put some pillows underneath a blanket so it looked like their bodies were in the blanket and then they put the dumy heads on the pillow and the Nead of the dumy was underneath the blanket. Then all of the escapees left out the air vent. Then they put a cardboard replica air vent with the colors on the walls after they got out of the air vent hole that they dug. And then they noticed that Allen West wasn't with them so they went to his air vent hole and said ''why aren't you coming'' ''because I don't want to come with you guys''. so they left him behind and got their life jackets and paddles and then go. When they left to go to the roof they Jumped up one by one through the medel bars on the ceiling. There is a broken bar because all week they worked on the test run because they needed to know what kind of tricky path they would run into. Then that led them to pipes and after that the pipes led them to the roof. After they were on the roof they went to a long poel that is proksemently 1000 yards down. Then they had to run to the Sanfransisco bay. When they got there they inflated their boat they maid out of raincoats. And then they put their life jackets on and then went out in the bay. Wile they were in the escape plan Allen West changed his mind that he wanted to be in the escape plan so he went to the back of his cell and turned off his light and then kicked the air vent open and then he went out of the cell and then got to the medel bars to get to the pipes that run to the roof. And then Allen couldn't get up on the medel bar because he needed help. So Allen just gave up and got back to his cell. When the other escapees were in the bay the life vest didn't work. The next day
