# Paul John "Frankie" Carbo

Alcatraz register no. 1568. The warden's notebook page records receipt from the Southern District of California on 24 May 1962 under a 25-year sentence for obstructing interstate commerce by extortion, and a transfer on 6 February 1963 whose destination the page and the catalog give differently.

The notebook page lists "Aliases: 'Frankie'" in its social summary. Its criminal-history box is a staff account of his record and of evidence at trial and is not reproduced here. The case file, about 1,000 pages, is described in the catalog but is not digitized. The role and family fields are left empty because no record cited here states either. Offenses are given as the notebook form prints them; the "Reason for Transfer" boxes are staff opinion and are not used.
