It's quite sad. It had a great cast and a lot of very good episodes. More specifically the season finale was great, but it's a shame that we don't get to see what would come next.
At least Nick Santora tried to give some sort of closure:

Cheers,
This absolutely sucks. I loved this show. A&E is only crap reality shows anymore. There exists neither "arts" nor "entertainment" on their network now. Netflix, time to step up and rescue BoK. We should at least get a 2hour special movie episode to finish everything up, right?
shareReally pissed off with this news :(
shareI've been without internet for a few days I come back and read this news...
Terrible D:
I think I'll make a fan film comprised of clips of the series/clips of the actors other works to make the twitter posts into a Epilogue.
Anyone think that would be a good idea?
At least Nick Santora tried to give some sort of closure:
Could you please tell me what he said? For some reason, Twitter links never seem to work for me.

How it ends. BOKs pretend to turn Ray in but double cross Marshals so they go free & Ray walks.Shea gets rich w/ elbow savers. Contd....
Erica raises daughter in the country. Ray starts private security biz, lives near his daughter. Lloyd & Jules marry. Name their son Charlie.
Cheers, share

Thank you.
Do you think he was serious, or just being a wiseass?
I don't see how any of that would have allowed them to get a whole season out of it. Plus the Lloyd storyline seems pretty far-fetched.

I think he means that's what was planned way down the road. Not necessarily what would have happened next season. But the very final episode down the road would have been that conclusion.
But as another poster said. Season 2 really, really suffered...Not much happened and the group really lacked a special dynamic that Charlie brought...It just felt like something was missing. I always thought the writers would bring in a new character but it never happened.
To be honest I really lost interest.

As I have stated previously I'm thinking that those posts were more to give some kind of closure to the fans than anything else. I have no idea of how they would have really resolved the cliffhanger if the show had been renewed but I'm quite curious.
I don't even think that the storyline that Santora posted would have been the end game. This show has an excellent formula and I can see it turning into a kind of procedural show which could ultimately end naturally with the convicts being released for serving most of their sentences as well as for good behavior.
After all, in one episode, Shea told Vanessa that he had six years left on his sentence, which doesn't sound like much if one starts taking into account all the arrests made. I'm not sure about Erica but Lloyd seemed to have more years to go. However I'm not sure about the source of this last bit since I believe to have read it here, on the BoK boards.
Maybe as a way to create some friction on the show more down the road one of them would have got out on parole and would have continued to work on the team?

What the hell were you watching zombiehax ?!?!?! Season 2 you say had not much happening?!?!?! Totally false. It had one of the best criminals ever in a tv show on the screen. The character Damian mind ****ing with Lloyd and Ray was unbelievable to see unfold. The last episode was electric and left me wanting more. There were many good episodes in Season 2 and enough so that I can't believe the show went off the air. share
Thank You for posting the tweets. That closure is important.
