The Texas Seven were an infamous group of convicted prisoners who escaped from the John B. Connally Unit, a maximum-security prison near Kenedy, Texas, on December 13, 2000. Over a month later, six of the seven were apprehended between January 21 and 23, 2001. Their capture was as a result of an appeal to the public during the television show America's Most Wanted. However, one of them committed suicide before he could be arrested. The other six escapees were all convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of police officer Aubrey Wright Hawkins, who had been murdered when responding to a robbery perpetrated by the Texas Seven.
