The Deadlock Gang (a.k.a. the Deadlock Rebels) is a notorious crime group.
Background
Early History
The Deadlock Gang was formed by Elizabeth Ashe, Jesse McCree, and two others. Ashe started to make a name for herself with bigger and more extravagant heists.[1] While the gang wasn't the first group of outlaws in the American Southwest, Ashe was determined to be "bigger and better" than the gang's rivals, to "write their names into legend."[2] The Deadlock Gang’s rapid rise to prominence put them at odds with the other criminal organizations in the American southwest; the encounters often became violent. After years of skirmishes and bloodshed, Ashe called the heads of the major groups together. She proposed that the gangs could work together (or at least, not work against each other). Her principles: keep your word, don’t work with the law, respect each other's territory, and always punish betrayal.[1]
The Deadlock Gang continued to operate within the American southwest, where it trafficked in illicit weapons and military hardware. A group of its operatives were apprehended in an Overwatch sting operation. This include McCree, who ended up joining Overwatch.[3]
The gang later planned a heist on Route 66.[4]
