I wouldn&#x27;t say it&#x27;s &quot;hard to believe&quot; that no bodies were found.  The bay currents generally tend outward; and Alcatraz Island sits basically right in the middle of the outward flow, not too far out from the Golden Gate Bridge.  It&#x27;s pretty much a straight shot out the bay, actually.<p>Meanwhile Scott Peterson seems to have made the mistake of dumping his wife&#x27;s body somewhere around Richmond, where currents are more stationary.  Her body was also dismembered, increasing the chance that parts of it -- such as the fetus -- would eventually be found.
