Jess Dunn served as warden of the Oklahoma State Penitentiary from 1938 to 1941. Dunn was killed in a shoot-out that resulted from an attempted inmate escape on August 10, 1941. Four others killed in the shoot-out included a sheriff's deputy and three of the four inmates involved in the escape. The remaining inmate was later executed for Dunn's murder.
