Line 6:
** James Robson, the right-hand man of Schillinger, is possibly worse than him. Malcolm Coyle also falls squarely into this category when he reveals he stabbed a baby for fun and raped the mother, and laughs.
** Timmy Kirk left a baby to die in a dumpster filled with rats, and is one of the series' complete sociopaths.
** William Cudney who murders the son of the doctor who gave his wife and abortion and doesn't have one shred of remorse.
** Not just limited to the inmates:
*** Claire Howell, who sexually abuses many inmates and even kills one.
Line 23 ⟶ 22:
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: ''Hoo Boy..'' Schillinger and Ryan O'Reily both could fit a whole page with this.
** Beecher's manipulation of Aaron (who was a jerk) would normally count, but doesn't because the realization of what he has done causes Beecher to feel genuinely guilty.
** In general, played with. While many appear to have crossed theirs (Keane, Adebisi and WilliamTimmy CudneyKirk being some examples) by virtue of the crimes they committed, the show's themes of morality and redemption work it in such a way that they are not as evil as they may have been portrayed otherwise. While most cross theirs while in prison (Schillinger, Robson and Keller to name a few), they are never expilcitly viewed as beyond any redemption.
* [[Narm]]: Thy name is Cyril O'Reilly, especially in later seasons. The forced tender moments start seeming ridiculous when his death count reaches 4 or so.
** Often Hill's narrations verge on this.
