I've been there, it's so cool to walk around and look at the reefs
I forget not everyone speaks Spanish so I had a " you don't say moment not too long ago" when he said that the island's name means turtle
Seeker Stories That's a pretty misleading title considering it's:
a) Not a prison now, nor originally built as a prison.
b) There were in fact prisoners housed there, but only in the same regard that you'd house prisoners of war at any military fort.
It was a prison at one time, nothing more irritating then
a misleading title.
I've been there a few years ago. It was a long boat ride from Key West. Beautiful marine life, and a very interesting fort. It was interesting how parts of it still feel incomplete to this day, despite becoming a prison.
So far i've discovered prisons on abandoned island.
1) Pulau Jerejak, Penang, Malaysia
2) Alcatraz
3) Dry Tortugas
4) Croation Prison in England
If you know other prisons on the islands, please share with me. Thank you :)
Fort Jefferson was not built as a prison
Big Island prison Brazil
Anchieta Island, Brazil

He was pardoned by President Andrew Johnson. His family fought to fully clear his name for over 100 years.
What's really special to the American people? Prisons.
+Skye ID Another "fun" past time for the U.S. government is putting black people in those prisons. Well, the ones that they don't kill...
Skye ID I hope you realize that there are alot of white people in Prisons too. Seriously you have no idea what you're talking about. Being black doesn't make you go to prison
+Sgt. Rex Power Colt This was made by Spaniards, so is Spanish pride not American
It was not built as a prison
Wow! definitely an amazing place to visit!
I am related to Dr. Mudd via my Fathers side of the family. I remember as a child visiting The Mudds as my parents called them, when we would travel to Sacramento,CA during the summer. I think I was around maybe 13yrs old the last time I saw them.12 cousins in one family.
+Shaye Kisitu Just because you have the same last name as someone, that doesn't mean they're in your blood.
I am by blood related to him on my Father's side of the family. Who are you? The family relative by blood "Gestapo"?
The Cyromaniac Furthermore, I posted a very harmless comment in the first place, so I am unsure of what point you are trying to make here with your comment. Nonetheless, I thank you in kind for commenting anyway my friend.
Shaye Kisitu Um. Wha?
Cool! very interesting.
