1
The year is 2000 and the date is December 13.
2
Seven men at a maximum security prison in Texas are just about to perform an audacious, if not brazen, prison escape.
3
They are dangerous men, and between them they are sentenced to hundreds of years.
4
They are not prepared to do their time.
5
In the words of the ringleader of the gang, George Rivas, “I had no parole.
6
I had no good time.
7
I had no incentive to behave.
8
The minimum amount of time I had was 270 years and obviously I couldn’t do that.” He hand-picked his team and what would follow is an escape and a subsequent bloody crime spree.
9
This is the story of the Tex as Seven.
10
Before we describe how these men managed to get out of a maximum security prison and tell you about the horrors of what happened after they got out, let’s first introduce the team.
11
We have that ringleader, George Rivas, and you know he was never going to get out of prison.
12
He was serving 18 consecutive 15-to-life sentences for robbery.
13
That might seem like a lot of time for this crime, but he was convicted of aggravated kidnapping, aggravated robbery, and burglary.
14
It’s said he picked his team knowing he was more intelligent than them, but also because he knew they were dangerous men.
15
Then we have Joseph Garcia, who was serving life for killing a man in a drunken altercation.
16
Randy Halprin was doing time for badly beating a baby.
17
He got 30 years.
18
Larry Harper was serving 50 years for rape and acts of voyeurism.
19
Patrick Murphy had 50 years to serve for aggravated assault, a particularly nasty crime against a woman.
20
Donald Newbury was in for aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and Michael Rodriguez was serving 99-years to life for hiring a man to kill his wife.
21
These are the Texas seven.
22
Rivas picked the team, and at some point the men began meeting at the John B. Connally Unit at the prison.
23
Getting out of such a place was not going to be easy, and some believe the men hatched their plan over perhaps an entire year.
24
On the day of the escape, just before lunch, the guards at the maintenance area sent the prisoners off for their chow.
25
The guards then went for their lunch.
26
Only Rivas, Garcia, Halprin, Harper, and Newbury were left in the maintenance area because they had managed to convince the maintenance supervisor that they had to wax the floors there.
27
They told him that they would take lunch in this area.
28
The supervisor said fair enough, but he would have to stay behind with them.
29
Murphy, working in another area, asked to join the crew and he was given the green light.
30
As for the last of the group, Rodriguez, he managed to join the crew after lying to the guards that he had been told he had to pick up trash there.
31
He wasn’t initially part of the escape plan, but he became so.
32
The men were all together just as they had planned.
33
They then told the supervisor to follow them to a warehouse where they needed something.
34
There they got him down on the ground, stole his clothes, and left him tied up in a small electrical room.
35
The crew found more clothes, but more importantly they got the keys to the room where the tools were stored.
36
In that room they managed to get their hands of two hacksaws, a bolt cutter, wire-cutting pliers, and a utility knife.
37
Over the next two hours they would get more clothes and things they needed after subduing two prison guards as well as other inmates.
38
Some of those hostages would get out of their restraints, but the gang would make sure they couldn’t get out of the room they had been tied up in.
39
With the clothes they had stolen the gang could now pretend to be supervisors, and that they did.
40
They could also make sure the head count was right, although they were of course missing.
41
Around this time things could have gone wrong because one of the hostages in that room set the fire alarm off, but it was taken as a false alarm.
42
The men in disguise then approached the gate, where heavily armed guards were.
43
They told the guards they had a job to do, and that was to install video cameras.
44
The guards let them through the gate, and importantly did not ask for any ID.
45
They came upon another guard at a gatehouse, and this one did ask for ID.
46
But then the gang had been clever, because they had left one guy in the maintenance department.
47
That guy actually called the gatehouse to ask if the men had turned up to install the video cameras.
48
After this, the men subdued this guard and tied him up.
49
Meanwhile Halprin had gained access to one of the towers, where an armed guard was stationed.
50
Halprin later said in interviews that this guard had a lot of weapons on him, so he quickly lunged to grab one of his guns and pointed it at him.
51
He then ordered the guard to open the vehicle gate.
52
After that he gained entrance to the armory, and he would take a lot of weapons from there.
53
The stash of weapons included a 12-gauge Remington pump-action shotgun with fourteen rounds of ammunition, fourteen .357 Magnum Smith & Wesson revolvers with a total of 210 rounds and a .223-caliber AR-15 assault rifle with fifteen rounds.
54
Now these guys were certainly very dangerous.
55
The entire gang left the prison with all these weapons in a stolen truck.
56
After they were well out of sight of the prison one of the tied-up guards got loose and reported the escape.
57
So, now we have seven criminals with histories of violence let loose in Texas, and worse, they are armed to the teeth.
58
The authorities put word out that very dangerous criminals were driving around and they were heavily armed.
59
The manhunt was on, but nothing was going to be easy for the authorities.
60
At the same time the guards found three letters left by the gang, with some of those letters decrying the harsh conditions inside.
61
One of the letters said, “You haven't heard the last of us, yet...” The authorities would take this as a threat, although the writer of that letter would later say that was not the case at all.
62
The men now have weapons, but they don’t have much money.
63
They do what they know best, and that’s steal cash.
64
At a Radio Shack store they first take a look around but then go back just before closing time.
65
There are still some customers there and four employees in total, all of whom are subdued.
66
What’s strange is the hostages said the gang were very friendly.
67
Later in interviews this gang said throughout the entire ordeal they tried their best not to hurt anyone, but as you will see, that certainly did not happen.
68
We should also state that during the hostage taking in the prison people were held at knifepoint and also hit over the head or punched in the face.
69
They stole thousands of dollars from the store, as well as electrical equipment which included walkie-talkies and police scanners.
70
The team then headed to Dallas, knowing full well that the police would think they were headed to the Mexican border.
71
The group now had money, but they wanted more.
72
On Christmas Eve they decided to rob an Oshman's Sporting Goods store in Irving, Dallas County.
73
They got into the store, bound and gagged the staff, and it’s said stole thousands of dollars as well as more than 40 different guns and lots of ammunition.
74
But while this was going on an employee was outside the store and he noticed something strange.
75
He called the cops and 29-year police officer Aubrey Wright Hawkins turned up.
76
Almost immediately he came under fire.
77
The officer was shot at different angles by perhaps three of the men.
78
Because they were firing from different sides of the car, at least one of the crew was hit.
79
The officer was shot 11 times, with many of the bullets entering his head.
80
He was then run over three times and left for dead.
81
He actually died later in hospital.
82
The officer was married and had a son, and he was expected to celebrate Christmas with his family the next day.
83
Later in an interview his mother would say that his son said all he wanted for Christmas was his father back.
84
The gang then fled in their motorhome which was now packed with cash and guns.
85
They’d even made a gun rack for their many weapons.
86
They later parked this at a Christian community and posed as missionaries, saying they were doing the word of God.
87
This was all a lie, except one of the men, Larry Harper, did attend bible class and seemed to get into it.
88
In interviews the other people living on this kind of commune said the men seemed pretty normal, and Larry was welcomed to the classes.
89
But as time went by the men couldn’t hide.
90
It was Rivas that was first spotted, because someone noticed his face and the fact he had a twitch.
91
The police were called but at first thought it just couldn’t be the gang because no way would they have been stupid enough to stick together.
92
Police soon knew they had their men and believed there could be one huge gun fight, but that didn’t happen.
93
First, Garcia, Rodriguez, and Rivas were arrested while driving around in a Jeep.
94
After that, police went back to the park to get the other men and there they found Halprin and Harper.
95
The former gave himself up, but Harper put a gun to his head and killed himself.
96
He left the bible open next to him on a page about forgiveness.
97
He also left a letter, apologizing to his family and the bible group he had deceived.
98
The remaining two men, Newbury and Murphy, hid out through most of January and then told the authorities that they would hand themselves in if they could make a TV appearance.
99
The authorities agreed, and the two men went on TV and denounced the criminal justice system.
100
They said, “the system is as corrupt as we are.” Newbury told the camera, “The way I see it is I had to make a statement.
101
Our judicial system in the state of Texas has really gone to pits.
102
We're receiving 99 years for a robbery for $68, nobody injured.” He said he’d been set up, that the evidence was flimsy at best, and he got 99 years.
103
He added, “I've done crime -- you've got to face the music.
104
But there's got to be something within reason in the state of Texas.
105
They're giving kids so much time that they will never get to see light again.
106
Their life is gone.
107
Now all they are is a roach in a cage.” These words wouldn’t save him.
108
The authorities and the public had seen how these men had killed a young father on Christmas Eve.
109
People were furious.
110
The men were sentenced to death.
111
In 2008, Rodriguez was the first to go, having said he didn’t want to appeal further.
112
In 2012, the ringleader Rivas was next to go.
113
Before he was executed he said this to the family of the slain police officer, “I do apologize for everything that happened, not because I am here, but for closure in your hearts.
114
I am ready to go.” Newbury was executed in 2015 and Garcia was executed in 2018.
115
Halprin and Murphy are still imprisoned, with Murphy being the only one of the two who has an execution date.
116
He is scheduled to die by lethal injection in November, so by the time you watch this show that might already have happened.
117
The case of Halprin has caused much controversy.
118
He had been scheduled to be executed but then his trial judge was accused of racial discrimination.
119
Halprin is Jewish, and the judge was said to have used racial slurs against him and also said Jews, “needed to be shut down because they controlled all the money.” The Washington Post wrote after that Halprin’s attorneys had demanded a new trial.
120
It got worse for the judge, according to The Post, because other people called him a “lifelong racist” who had vented anger on many occasions against lots of minorities in the USA.
121
The newspaper wrote that this judge had even set up a trust fund for his kids that they would get on the condition of them marrying a straight, white, Christian person, spurring a lot of the American public to ask how this man became a judge.
122
With this in mind, asked Halprin’s attorneys, how could any non-Christian, non-white person receive a fair trial.
123
And that’s where the story of the Texas Seven ends… for now.
124
What we’d like to know is how do you feel about this case?

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
