alex was raised in poor conditions, his mother cited spousal abuse against mahone's father, but he still managed to hold onto custody of alex, therefore only living with his father, who often abused him. according to richard sullins, his father beat him "like a harp seal for the next four years." due to his lack of options in the work force while in adulthood, he decided to join the military.after leaving his abusive home-life, and not having many other options, mahone joined the military. when the problem of the gulf war arose, alex was quickly transferred to special ops. his unit was one of the first on iraqi soil and he was awarded the medal of honor. later, he became a high ranking special agent of the federal bureau of investigation.at some point during his career as an agent, mahone attempted to capture an escaped prisoner named oscar shales, who made the chase almost like a game of cat and mouse, which alex would later admit would’ve almost been fun, if not for the fact that the escaped prisoner was terrorizing and killing people along the way and kept evading him. unknown to anyone, however, alex did eventually manage to track him down, though instead of bringing him in, alex killed him, and buried him in his own back yard.this is an action alex would become traumatized by, and he became addicted to a drug called veratril, to help calm him down.after another prisoner named michael scofield successfully orchestrated the escape of eight prisoners from fox river state penitentiary, alex was assigned to spearhead the task force assembled to bring in the fugitives. however, alex was also approached by a secret organization called “the company”, which threatened to reveal to his peers the truth about oscar shales if alex did not capture and kill all the escaped prisoners. with the threat of not only losing his job, but ending up in prison hanging over him, alex started doing as he was told, and managed to kill two of the escaped prisoners, both instances traumatizing him further, to the point where alex attempted to back out of the deal, no longer caring what the company would do to him.however, as the company began threatening his ex-wife and five year old son, alex was forced to continue following their orders. however, along the way, as michael and his brother escape to panama, alex comes up with a plan to frame the brothers of murder of one of the men working for the company, a man named kim.keeping michael’s brother at gunpoint, alex calls michael and tells him he wants the money they stole and their boat, and refrains from telling them he’s also called kim and told kim to meet him at the same address because he’d caught michael and his brother, all in order to frame michael and his brother for kim’s death, as alex intended to kill him before leaving. however, his plan fails, and he’s only able to get the money and the boat while kim still lives.sailing away, alex is soon arrested, as it turned out, michael had set up his own trap for alex and planted a large amount of drugs in the boat and tipped the cops about it, leading to alex getting arrested and taken to sona prison. michael, however, ends up getting imprisoned in sona as well during different events shortly after.starting to experience withdrawal symptoms, and knowing that there was no way he would get out of prison unless he found a way to escape, alex attempted to convince michael to let him in on his plans of escaping, as he knew michael planned on escaping. finding his withdrawals to become too much, alex became addicted to stronger drugs that he got his hands on in prison. however, he eventually managed to fight his addiction and escape with michael, along with a man named james whistler, whom michael had been forced by the company to break out of prison, lest his girlfriend gets killed.after escaping sona, alex then joins whistler and gretchen in making plans on how to take down the company, which has screwed with all their lives and seemed to be behind everything bad that has happened in all of their lives. they start working with homeland security to destroy the company. alex later contacts michael and tries to convince him to join them in taking down the company, needing his expertise to help steal 5 different cards from the company which is believed to contain all of the company’s secrets. however, mid-way of explaining everything, one of the company’s men, named wyatt, shows up and kills whistler. michael escapes. so does alex, only to come home and find his son has been killed by the company, by the very same man that killed whistler. still wanted, alex gets arrested immediately as he arrives at the crime scene of his son’s death.michael, knowing alex’s expertise will be a great asset in taking down the company, pulls some strings to have alex secretly released from prison to join them in finding the company’s cards so they can finally bring down the company and regain their own freedom. alex agrees, though affected by his son’s death, he sets out to find his son’s killer as well.
