On the 16th of December, [[Robot universe#1937|1937]], [[Theodore Cole and Ralph Roe]] attempted escape through a wash-house window. After parting ways and diving into the icy waters, the two men were never seen again.
 
In [[Robot universe#1946|1946]], inmate number 548, [[Joseph Cretzer|Joseph 'Dutch' Cretzer]], led a mutiny with five other men. Two warders were killed, but Cretzer's plan was to treat them as living hostages to exchange for their freedom. Military troops were brought in as reinforcements; after Wardena Johnstonprison higher-up commented his belief the hostages to be dead, the troops breached the criminals' stronghold. Cretzer and two of his cohorts, [[Coy]] and [[Hubbard]], were shot dead during the assault.
 
The surviving mutineers were tried, their lawyers paid for by donations from fellow prisoners. After a unanimous guilty verdict, [[Judge Goodman]] sentenced [[Shockley]] and [[Thompson]] to death in the gas chamber, and life imprisonment for [[Carnes]], a Native American inmate.
