4. T-Bag - Prison Break

FoxTheodore Bagwell, also known as T-Bag, was never going to be a model citizen. Conceived through his father sexually assaulting his own downs-syndrome afflicted sister, T-Bag also suffered sexual abuse from his the despicable Bagwell patriarch. T-Bag€™s father was also responsible for his mastery of language €“ a trait which is often seen in psychopaths. In his youth Theodore was forced to digested entire encyclopaedias and dictionaries in the hope that he would someday become President €“ though some might argue that the two aren€™t so different, T-Bag would quickly begin a life of crime. As a youngster he was in constant trouble with the police for vandalism, torturing animals and even attempting to set a teacher€™s house on fire. This tendency towards crime certainly wasn€™t a €˜phase€™ Bagwell went through in his youth either. The man we encounter in Prison Break is a fully fledged psychopath. T-Bag is easily the most menacing of the dangerous inmates we encounter at Fox River Penitentairy. We are told that the psychopathic Alabama-native was finally arrested for kidnapping, rape and murder, but it is also implied that he dabbled in necrophilia and paedophilia. It is easy to be fooled by T-Bag€™s undeniably charm and charisma (thanks to Robert Knepper€™s excellent turn) but it is impossible to completely forget how unpredictably dangerous the psychopath of Fox River truly is.
