In the lore of their gang it's said that each member swore a blood oath promising to free other members from their prison cells – even if it meant they, themselves, were apprehended or killed while trying to spring a fellow associate.

Prison, say modern historians, was nothing more than, quote, “just another occupational hazard.”
