Sons of Anarchy saw a bunch of beloved characters die, and season 2 had one of the most shocking and heartbreaking deaths when prospect Half-Sack was stabbed to death – but why was Half-Sack killed off so soon? Back in 2008, Kurt Sutter took the audience into the world of motorcycle clubs in Sons of Anarchy, a crime-drama TV series that was praised by critics and viewers from its first episodes. This success allowed Sons of Anarchy to live on for a total of seven seasons, coming to an end in 2014 after a lot of betrayals, fights, and some truly tragic events.

Leading Sons of Anarchy was Jackson “Jax” Teller (Charlie Hunnam), the club’s VP and son of one of its founding members, who eventually became the President of the MC.

This, along with other conflicts, sends Jax on a personal journey that makes him question his path, role in the club, relationships, and more. Through Jax, viewers got to see how the club worked and met some of its most notable members, among those Half-Sack (Johnny Lewis).
