As the gang continued to commit crimes, Bonnie and Clyde grew closer together. In 1934, the gang managed to organize a mass breakout at Eastham prison in Texas. During the escape, the gang killed Major Joe Crowson, and then things turned into a full-blown manhunt. From then on, the Barrow Gang narrowly avoided any capture or death. Along the way, he killed many police officers.
