[edit] History
Michael Scofield robbed a bank in order to get into Fox River so he could break his brother, Lincoln Burrows, out before his exucution. Ten inmates (the escapees, Charles Westmoreland and Manche Sanchez) eventually were escaping. However, Westmoreland died of a wound and Manche was caught. Haywire, Tweener and T-Bag wound up alone while the other five missed the plane that was supposed to take them away and had to run. They ultimately went their own ways (except for Michael and Lincoln) although they met again while searching for Westmoreland's money stash. FBI Agent Alexander Mahone killed Abruzzi, Tweener and Haywire and C-Note was put in the witness protection program for protection against Mahone. Michael and T-Bag got put in a prison in Panama, Sona. Michael later escapes and Fernando is put into Sona. Lincoln has been cleared of all charges and is living in Panama. Three days after Michael escaped Sona, T-Bag and Sucre escape as well, being the three escapees to continue to elude authorities, without death or exoneration like the other five. In the end, Michael and Sucre are exonerated after Scylla was handed over to the government, and T-Bag is tossed back at Fox River. Michael later died within the next four years, leaving Lincoln, Sucre and C-Note the only free members of the Fox River Eight that are alive.
