Pancamo - Character Overview

Character Overview

Prisoner #97P468. Convicted June 4, 1997 - Sentence: 35 years, eligible for parole in 15.

Nicknamed, 'The Enforcer', Pancamo is introduced in the show's second season. He is an Italian-American gangster serving time for tying a woman in a bag and throwing her into the ocean. Unlike other prisoners with flashbacks showing their crimes, it's not mentioned what crime he was convicted of (presumably some degree of murder), nor is any context given for why he committed the crime. Extremely muscular, he is primarily an enforcing member of the prison's Italian gang until he is asked to take over by Antonio Nappa. Pancamo runs the gambling and drug businesses in Oz. He is one of the most feared men in Oz, but makes several mistakes as a leader of the Italians. He is shown to be less cunning than other gang leaders such as Morales and Adebisi. However, he does find a way to come out of each situation on top and is one of the few leaders in Oz to make it through the duration of the show.

    People without firmness of character love to make up a “fate” for themselves; that relieves them of the necessity of having their own will and of taking responsibility for themselves.
