A search is underway in north Alabama after a man charged with capital murder and a deputy transporting him to court went missing Friday morning. Learn more in the video above.
Inmate Casey Cole White and Lauderdale Co. Corrections Officer Vicki White
Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office employee Vicki White, who is the assistant director of corrections, and inmate Casey Cole White have not been seen since 9:30 a.m. Friday when they allegedly left for the county courthouse. The sheriff's office said the deputy and suspect are not related.
The marked vehicle that the two left the detention center in was located in the parking lot of a shopping center in Florence around 11 a.m. Friday. Their current direction of travel is unknown, and investigators are looking for video footage that may give more information.
In a news conference Friday evening, Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton said Officer White, an employee of 25 years, told the booking officer at the detention center that she was escorting inmate White to the courthouse for a mental health evaluation. After dropping the inmate off with other deputies, Officer White said she planned to seek medical attention for herself because she wasn't feeling well.
Around 3:30 p.m., the booking officer attempted to contact Officer White, but her phone was going straight to voicemail. It was also discovered that inmate White never returned to the jail. The sheriff said they began investigating "aggressively."
Officials said the officer and the inmate never showed up to the courthouse, and it has since been determined that the inmate did not have any evaluations scheduled. Local urgent care offices also have no record of Officer White visiting on Friday.
The sheriff noted it's a "strict violation of policy" for inmates with those types of charges to be escorted anywhere by one deputy. Still, they believe Officer White wasn't questioned because she is the head of operations and coordinates all transports.
"Knowing the inmate, I think [Officer White] is in danger whatever the circumstances," Singleton said. "He was in jail for capital murder. He has nothing to lose."
According to court documents, Casey White's capital murder charge stems from the "brutal death" of Connie Ridgeway at her Rogersville home in 2015. The capital murder charge also includes first-degree burglary.
"Did she assist him in escaping? That's obviously a possibility," Singleton said. "So we're looking into that as one angle of the investigation — was she kidnapped en route to the courthouse and, you know, taken against her will?"
"All of her co-workers, all the employees in the sheriff's office, the judges, all have the most utmost respect for her," Singleton said. "She has an unblemished record. She's an exemplary employee. So we're very concerned for her safety."
Casey White is 6-foot-9 and considered armed and dangerous. Vicki White "was armed with a 9mm handgun, which means we are assuming he is armed," Singleton added.

Mel Gibson made a movie on this subject, named Mrs. Soffel. A true story from 1902, in a big prison in Pennsylvania the warden, Mr. Soffel, lived in a house inside the prison complex. His wife fell in love with a convicted murderer, played by Mel Gibson. She helped Gibson escape and ran away with him. Did not end well.
I believe she's involved, it says she was taking him to a doctor for a mental health evaluation but he had no appointment to see the doctor, sounds fishy.
what are the odds of getting away with this? 1 in 10,000? 2 weeks of living until the cash runs out and then he is going to revert to doing whatever needs to happen to stay out of prison.

Years ago Idaho had a female serial killer named Lyda Southard. She poisoned 4 husbands and a couple other people for insurance money. In prison, the warden was known to take her outside the walls on 'picnics'. She escaped and was on the run for several years but not from one of those liaisons.
A pretty good argument against allowing women to work with male prisoners. She's been working for years with criminals and apparently doesn't understand what a sociopath or psychopath is.
What could go wrong? A fat lovelorn blonde in a pen full of male criminals?

Worse part is her hormones and stupidity will cost her dearly. On the positive side her career is shot and she will end up in prison. But as soon as he is done with her he will most likely kill her.
In her position as Asst Director she has intimated subordinates to violate policy previously.
Her superior was aware of concerns but chose not to believe or act on them.
Management has created an environment where violating policy is not dealt with. One does not violate inmate transportation policy this egregiously without a history of policy violations and the belief you can get away with it.
They will sacrifice the subordinate(s) who allowed her to intimidate them into violating policy.
It should be noted that females are not the only officers to fall in love with male inmates. I knew a married guy who fell in love with a male inmate and began bringing in drugs for him.

All correct there, not sure if she will be lucky or not if he kills her
If it’s proven she colluded to help this guy escape she’ll most likely see prison time, as she should. If she had just had sex with him they would have let her resign quietly.
I’ve seen a fair number of cases of female officers having affairs with male inmates and male officers having affairs with female inmates. I have never seen a female officer get prison time for it. I have never seen a male officer fail to get prison time for it. Terrible double standard. Every female officer I’ve been aware of in these situations has been allowed to resign. Every male officer in the same situation has ended up a registered sex offender.

Woman love attention, emotions and feeling loved. She had limited ability to draw attention in day to day life but in prison full of men she had her choice of men that would lavish attention on her and she ate it up like cake.
Unbelievable if involved she is throwing her life away for a 38 year old man that's facing a life sentence on top of the 75 years he's already serving. They will have no life together and will be caught she will herself be in prison and probably have no contact with him ever again how stupid can a person be.
Just heard on the news that she had put in her retirement papers the day before they disappeared. 😳
LOL.
Good luck getting THAT now...
That depends on how her pension is set up. She could well get it. She did earn it. How she would collect it is another matter. She could have it direct deposited but they could easily track where she withdraws it. They'll be wanting to talk to her.
The number one way cops catch people is by tracking their cell phone. She is a cop, she knows this, she had to ditch the cell phone. The second way they track people is by tracking the credit card. So, she ditched her credit cards.
She just sold her house 5 weeks ago, the real estate market down South here is red hot. She had to walk away from that closing with $50 grand, could be double or triple that. Over the course of the past 5 weeks, she pulled $50 grand in cash out of the bank.
He is distinguished by his 6-9 height, not much they can do about that. She is distinguished by her long blond hair. She cuts that in to a crewcut, and dies it platinum red. She even could be disguised as a male.
They got all that cash to spend, it would be hard to leave the country their IDs would be all over the border crossings for Mexico and Canada.
I bet they are not far from home, probably staying in a motel in Louisiana.
There are places in Arizona, New Mexico, northeast California, Oregon, or Idaho where people can just disappear for years with no questions asked. Look at how long Ted Kazinski lived off the grid, for instance. If the guy doesn't get tired of her bitching and turn her into compost, they could avoid getting discovered for a long time with a little preplanning. It looks like she has been doing her homework on this situation for a while.
If they had the brains and resources, why not head for one of the countries with no U.S. Extradition Treaty? They had some kind of plan or they'd already been picked up.
He will surface pretty soon. 6'9'' is hard to hide. She may never be found. I have news for her, he is not in love.
Whether she helped escape or not (and it looks like she did) the odds of her living long enough to be captured are pretty slim. The con was just using her, and will get rid of her as soon as she has outlived her usefulness. In fact, I doubt that she is still alive right now.
I doubt that he will kill her given that he’s 6’9”. She’ll be more able to blend in with the public and act as his lifeline to get supplies ect. Without her he’ll be recognized the instant he leaves his hiding spot.

Yes. They aren't stupid enough to go into Walmart together. They would be on video and would be spotted. She goes into Walmart by herself, with her new red crew cut, and stocks up on beer and food, nobody would recognize her.
As far as going to a country with no extradition, Ireland is such a country. But you gotta get through airport security you need a passport, you need a new super secure ID. No way.
But a boat! You could hug the coast line in a nice sailboat, and in a few weeks make it to Costa Rica. Pull up to a dock, pay cash for dock rental, food and Cerveza, nobody is going to be asking too many many questions. Fifty grand for the boat and if you still have fifty grand in cash, you could live a long time on that. Are they smart enough to have cooked up a complicated plan like this?
Her mother said, that she wanted to live on the beach when she retired.
Over 20 years ago we had a homo sheriff in our parish. He had an affair going on with a male inmate or should I say intimate. The inmate became a college student at our local school and was escorted to class by a uniformed deputy. Apparently he was a frequent guest at the sheriff's home. He "escaped" and made it to one of the islands in the Caribbean with the financial aid of the sheriff. To shorten up the story, our DA caught wind of it and put the FBI on the case and our sheriff left office with a federal malfeasance conviction. One of his local minority supporters said "he let his passion get the best of him".

To him she is an asset, an expendable asset. As some point she will cease to be useful. She may come to her senses, or he may just get tired of her. When that happens she will cease to be an asset, and will become a liability. Her days are numbered, and she will be lucky if they get caught before he kills her. That's assuming that she's alive right now.

Southern folk always have the best butt fugker stories.
She sold the house 5 weeks ago for $95,500. If it was paid off, $95K is not enough to buy a nice sailboat, and have enough left to camp out at the pier in Costa Rica. .
I just read a Foxnews article that said they were seen on a surveillance camera ditching the marked prison car in a parking lot. They were 70 miles from Huntsville at the time. It didn't say whether the video showed her to be part of an escape or being dragged along. It also said she had filled out her retirement papers but the weren't filed yet. She was required to have an appointment with the personnel director before the papers could be sent to the state retirement system and that hadn't been done. I knew she was older than him but she's 20 years older. That's getting into cougar country.
I would assume she didn't walk out of the bank with $96K in a duffel bag. I suspect they are following that money trail
I need you to sell your house, help me escape, face multiple years in jail , lose your job and scavenge food out of trash cans for the rest of your life
whats it in for me?
I will have sex with you instead of guys named tyrone for as long as you keep me fed and sheltered, then I"ll kill you

Difference between offer acceptance and closing probably.

Fixed it for ya ! 😜
You can bet the dumb bitch was in on it. Bet she was screwing him in jail. Most of the women prison guards I’ve met are idiots.

Her mother said five weeks and I was going by that. You bring up a good point, she got that money, and 11 days later made the break. She didn't wait long.
That recent picture of her, get out the Alpo, what a dog. I guess if a guy has been locked up for years, she looks pretty good.

Joyce Mitchell, 56 year old employee at Dannemora Prison in New York. in 2015 she helped a convicted murderer escape, smuggled hacksaws etc into his cell. Something about these dumpy 50-something gals working in the prisons with these young murderer types.

- How did you meat them?
Most of them came to the local gun range I ran to practice for their State Firearms Qualification. Had several from the two local prisons in my old Hometown take my CHL Class. Most of them couldn’t pass the shooting qualification. Dumbasses doesn’t begin to describe how stupid they were. And most of them were big fat ugly bitches. I’d guess at least half of them were bull dykes. One of them was murdered by one of the prisoners she was screwing, later on.

Gee, some ya just gotta explain everything. Doggy of course. If he was in lock up she'd have to back her ass the bars.
Pretty damned hard to blend into a crowd when you're a 6'-9" white guy.
They'll get caught just like Joyce Mitchell, that dumb woman in NY who helped to killers escape from the prison where she worked.
It's just a matter of time before they are caught. They now know what car they driving he has a $10k reward and she has a $5k reward they gonna make a mistake and someone will recognize them. The honeymoon will be over shortly.

What makes you all think this guy is guilty and wasn’t arrested wrongfully?
Have you read his arrest/conviction history? He was already serving 75 years when he admitted to the murder, so the murder could be in question, I'm not sure about the other crap from a long list of crimes.

Yes, society went insane in a whole slew of ways back in the 1960s (not an accident, i.e., it was intentionally done to us), and we're reaping the rewards.
Maybe you can catch up with them down your way and chat them up and see what ya think..
He's worth $10K and they are offering $5K For her so if nothing else you could score 15 grand.
Women aren't worth as much in the professional or criminal world, are they?
I would expect to see some protests regarding this until they boost her price up to match his. I thought this sort of discrimination was in the past. GD
How Dog the Bounty Hunter would catch Casey and Vicki White SOUTHEAST Bobby Oler, Marni Hughes, Leland Vittert

(NewsNation) — An escaped Alabama prisoner and a corrections officer have been on the run for a week, but Dog the Bounty Hunter believes it’s a matter of time before they’re caught.
“When you have a criminal like that and a police officer on the run, neither one have experience with running,” he said Thursday on “NewsNation Special Coverage.”
Casey White and Vicki White, who are not related, left an Alabama prison April 29. Vicki White said she was taking him for a mental health evaluation, but the two got in a police car and have not been seen since.
It’s since come to light that Vicki White sold her house well below market value and was leaving her job as a corrections officer. Police suspect she is a willing participant in Casey White’s escape.
Dog recommends checking AirBnBs and similar rental properties in a 3,000 mile radius to see who has made long-term bookings.
“They probably rented an Airbnb for maybe 90 days because she’ll know, being a police officer, you have to go under right now,” he said. “Things are going to calm down and cool off.”
Laying low is important, he adds, because their physical features are distinct. Casey White is 6’9″ — a “dead giveaway.” He surmises Vicki White is doing most of the shopping in a disguise.
This is a high-profile case, but fugitive pursuits are common. U.S. marshals caught 84,247 fugitives last year.
Some do evade capture. Eric Robert Rudolph, the Olympic Park bomber, evaded capture for almost seven years. It took police 17 years to catch up with Ted Kaczynski, the so-called Unabomber.
But Dog is confident the amount of attention this case has gotten means this is only a matter of time.
“You never know who’s going to see you. Someone’s going to spot them.”
I have know a handful of prison guards in my life. IMO the only difference for 98% of them is which side of the bars they happen to be behind. Not the most ethical workers.
That’s a pretty wide brush you paint with. I retired from corrections. I’ve known a lot of corrections officers and yes there are some bad ones. Largely they are good people doing a job most couldn’t do.
I think most who know me would say I was an ethical person. In my time in corrections I never did anything illegal or violated policy. Never took a cheap shot during a use of force or treated inmates, staff or visitors with anything but respect.
We could paint every profession with the same wide brush if we only looked at the unethical element within their ranks. But most people in any given profession are good people doing the job they’re paid to do. We only hear about or remember the bad ones.

AMEN! I worked in LE for over 26 years and learned quickly that I didn't have what it took to be a CO. The ones I interacted with in AK during my career were damned good people.
A friend was traveling with her boyfriend - who is 6 foot nine- and she is shorter and blond.
They went to leave a store and cops came up and separated them and after some tense moments it became clear that some idiot called the cops and told them they saw "that couple on the run."
She laughed about it later but said it was a little stressful
I've had occasion to visit our local[county] jail on business over the past 5-10 years several times. I don't recall ever meeting or seeing any men working there. Seems odd to basically have all women working the jail.
The hottest car in America has been in the impound yard at the Williamson Co. Sheriff's Office for a week. Nobody noticed anything until last night. Where is Barney Fife when you need him?
FLORENCE, Ala. — The conspicuous orange getaway car used by escaped convict Casey Cole White and former jail boss Vicky White was found at a Tennessee tow pound, the US Marshals Service confirmed.
The 2007 Ford Edge, which had been purchased by Vicky sometime before she and Casey allegedly fled the Lauderdale County jail last week, was tracked down at the tow pound by the US Marshals Service Friday, the agency said.
The car had been found locked and abandoned last Friday around 2 p.m., just hours after the pair fled, on a rural road in Bethesda, about two hours north of the jail, the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office in Tennessee and the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office in Alabama said.
Cops confirmed the car is the one White purchased. WCSO Franklin TN White purchased the car sometime before fleeing with Casey Cole.
Vicky White car Around 11:30 p.m. Thursday, investigators got a tip that a car matching the description of the midsize SUV had been spotted at a tow pound in Williamson County, Tennessee. Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office It was found and picked up by a tow truck after someone called the Sheriff’s office to report it abandoned.
The car was later impounded and investigators didn’t get a tip that it was at the tow pound until late Thursday evening, the USMS said.

In the 80's I was in the NG with quite a few guys that were prison guards that worked at the state Penn in Florence. Most were real good guys but one that wasn't was Timothy Ring, now doing life in the big house.
“Up the River” is Sing Sing. “The Big House” is Lewisburg. I realize that people use the terms generically like Vaseline and Kleenex. Just wanted to use this opportunity to call attention to it. I happened to be talking to a unit manager at Lewisburg just now and the name was not familiar to them.
Lewisburg is The Big House and it is known for that and as that. As far as I know all use of the term originates there. My daughter is the historian there. It is Federal. I just researched and there was a 1930 movie by the same name that predates Lewisburg. So who knows but Lewisburg is definitely called and known throughout the system as The Big House. Maybe it got its name from the movie.
All the speculation is/was funny. No one ever escorts 1on1, unless your a scandalous dumb cuunt… wife told me the day it happened, I said, dumb cuunt is fuuckin him.. SOW and I’m sure others have paid out millions do to this type of shiit… right under your noses, low key shiit. Great rehabilitation. 👊🏻
I’d bet the plan had a few different layers. There was his plan, and then there was what she thought was their plan. She’s more than likely in a shallow grave, and he is hid out somewhere with her money.

I cannot imagine spending ones working life as a prison employee working directly with prisoners. It has got to be a bad job and someone has to do it but interacting with criminals for 30 years wouldn't be my cup of tea. Being a city cop or child protection officer would have to be pretty taxing on the nerves also.
That’s a pretty wide brush you paint with. I retired from corrections. I’ve known a lot of corrections officers and yes there are some bad ones. Largely they are good people doing a job most couldn’t do.
I think most who know me would say I was an ethical person. In my time in corrections I never did anything illegal or violated policy. Never took a cheap shot during a use of force or treated inmates, staff or visitors with anything but respect.
We could paint every profession with the same wide brush if we only looked at the unethical element within their ranks. But most people in any given profession are good people doing the job they’re paid to do. We only hear about or remember the bad ones.

My son-in-law was a corrections officer for a short time. His father, who retired from the system, pulled a few strings and got him hired- - - -nothing like a little nepotism, huh? It didn't last, mostly because the guy is a liar, a thief, and a raging alcoholic. Other than that, he's a pretty nice guy, I suppose!
They might be headed for Zihuatenejo…ain’t that where escaped prisoners go! Just watch the southern border, they’ll be the only ones going the wrong way.🤔
Dog recommends checking AirBnBs and similar rental properties in a 3,000 mile radius to see who has made long-term bookings.
If you stick a pin in the middle of the state of Kansas and draw a circle with a 3000 mile radius (a 6000 mile diameter), that circle would cover all of the United States, most of Mexico, and the most of Canada--at least the part where most of the people live. So, Mr. Dog thinks that the authorities should check virtually every rental property in three countries? OK, I agree--if you do that, I think you'll find these people.

It's a lot easier for Dog, when you realize he works out of Hawaii!
I'd imagine that Souther Brotherhood organization Casey's affiliated with there at his prison might be setup to help prisoners and their loved ones once they are out of confinement.
Sounds like a righteous association of men anyway.
Southern Brotherhood Motorcycle Club This gang is a subgroup of the Southern Brotherhood, which is the largest white supremacist prison gang in Alabama. Formed in 1995, members hold their own events as well as attend biker rallies in Alabama. They also claim members in Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, Indiana and Texas. LINK
The hottest car in America has been in the impound yard at the Williamson Co. Sheriff's Office for a week. Nobody noticed anything until last night. Where is Barney Fife when you need him?
FLORENCE, Ala. — The conspicuous orange getaway car used by escaped convict Casey Cole White and former jail boss Vicky White was found at a Tennessee tow pound, the US Marshals Service confirmed.
The 2007 Ford Edge, which had been purchased by Vicky sometime before she and Casey allegedly fled the Lauderdale County jail last week, was tracked down at the tow pound by the US Marshals Service Friday, the agency said.
The car had been found locked and abandoned last Friday around 2 p.m., just hours after the pair fled, on a rural road in Bethesda, about two hours north of the jail, the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office in Tennessee and the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office in Alabama said. Cops confirmed the car is the one White purchased. WCSO Franklin TN White purchased the car sometime before fleeing with Casey Cole.
Vicky White car Around 11:30 p.m. Thursday, investigators got a tip that a car matching the description of the midsize SUV had been spotted at a tow pound in Williamson County, Tennessee. Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office It was found and picked up by a tow truck after someone called the Sheriff’s office to report it abandoned.
The car was later impounded and investigators didn’t get a tip that it was at the tow pound until late Thursday evening, the USMS said.

I'm thinking Dog failed both math and geography. He's a snazzy dresser though!!
Well …….unfortunately this happened in my hometown and at our local jail. What I’m hearing from all of the local chatter is that No one has a clue as to where the couple might be. After listening to people that knew the guard, they are more worried about her receiving her retirement!!! Really??? Just another day in Flotown I reckon.
That’s a pretty wide brush you paint with. I retired from corrections. I’ve known a lot of corrections officers and yes there are some bad ones. Largely they are good people doing a job most couldn’t do.
If I'm gonna be judged by my worst day at work, I'd rather that day be as something other than a CO or cop.

I know approx five guys in corrections and every one of them is a good guy , great father and husband.

Whenever I delivered someone to jail I had a huge wish to get out of there as soon as possible. I can't imagine a career in one of those places.
Daily News, Alaska Man wanted in connection with killing of Anchorage mother and daughter arrested in New York Tess Williams, Anchorage Daily News, Alaska April 20, 2022·2 min read Apr. 21—A man who police have deemed a "person of interest" in a domestic-violence double homicide has been arrested in New York, Anchorage police announced Wednesday.
Police first asked for the public's help locating 39-year-old Jalonni M. Blackshear on Saturday and linked him to the deaths of a 35-year-old woman and 14-year-old girl on Tuesday. Blackshear worked as a correctional officer until early April and police said he was considered armed and dangerous.
Family and friends of Raechyl Blackshear identified her and her daughter, Jayla, as the people who were killed. Raechyl Blackshear was married to Jalonni Blackshear.
Raechyl Blackshear was "smart, driven and a rock star mom," her cousin Shannon Thompson said. Jayla took after her mother, she said, and was a bright student who was looking forward to high school.
Raechyl Blackshear was last seen April 1, according to Thompson. She missed several shifts for work in the following days, which raised red flags for family, Thompson said, because she was dedicated to her job as a nurse.
Concerned friends and family asked the police to do welfare checks on the home, and on Friday police said in a statement that officers found two people dead inside.
Police asked for the public's help locating Jalonni Blackshear on Saturday and said he "currently has active warrants." He was not tied in the statement to the homicides. Police said the warrant is sealed and declined to answer questions or provide further information.
Jalonni Blackshear, police wrote, was believed to be somewhere on the East Coast.
On Wednesday morning, police announced he had been arrested in New York state. Anchorage police declined to answer questions or provide additional information about the arrest.
A news report from NBC New York said Jalonni Blackshear was arrested by Homeland Security Investigations agents Wednesday in the New York City borough of Staten Island.
Jalonni Blackshear was a correctional officer at the Anchorage Correctional Complex from 2018 until April 6 of this year, according to Department of Corrections spokeswoman Betsy Holley. She said additional information about his employment is confidential, including the reasons for his departure from the job.
Jalonni Blackshear previously served in the military, according to Thompson.
I’ve read files where, you can’t even fathom how people can do the things they do to other folks. Finally quit reading them, nightmares, thinking about it daily. A lot better when you don’t see the details.
Who allowed one female guard to be alone with, much less leave the prison with a 6'9" inmate accused of murder? Maybe that warden needs to review policy.

I thought the same thing. Somebody needs to answer that question.

Car was found abut 3 miles from the house. Story is that it was found before they even discovered the "jail break".
Apparently was parked where it blocked the school bus and County had it towed. Not exactly an area one would randomly choose to get to unless it was part of the "plan"
Nothing but respect for you guys doing your jobs as CO,s the right way and the BS ya have to deal with at times.
Thing that used to pizz me off was previous shift fuggs being pussy,s and giving into inmates. Just makes your job harder on your shift. Hearing Deputy this... Deputy that... Lets us do this that or the other...
I was fired for a excessive force incident breaking up a fight.

Like I said nothing but respect for you CO cats doing it the right way for a Career. 👍👍👍
I never had a problem working with inmates. Even in max security. Just follow policy and treat them like humans whether they deserve it or not. It was administration that was the problem for me and the reason I retired early. I was in a mid level management position and always between the hammer and the anvil.
Corrections seems to be one of those agencies where the unqualified promote to high levels. Usually because the staff who would do well in those admin spots don’t want anything to do with them.
I spent years trying to steer admin away from implementing foolish, unsafe and ineffective policies. Mostly to no avail. All the while trying to look out for the best interest of line staff.
A good example was our vehicle sally port. It needed to have a cover and an electric mover. No money for that. Plenty of money for overtime to cover the four officers I know of who suffered torn rotator cuffs because of that miserable gate. I made 13 formal requests to modify that gate. Was always told there wasn’t the money in the budget for it. There was plenty of money for OT to cover those injured officers and always money for a new coat paint in the inmate living units and always money for another failed inmate program. Never any funds for officer safety.
I never had a problem working with inmates..... Just follow policy and treat them like humans whether they deserve it or not. It was administration that was the problem for me and the reason I retired early........
The Reward Money has Increased, still gender disproportionate. On Friday, authorities announced the reward for Casey White was increased to $15,000 and the reward for Vicky White is $10,000 . https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna27799

EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WAFF/Gray News) - Alabama police say escaped inmate Casey White and former jail official Vicky White have been taken into custody in Indiana.
Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton said the two fugitives were caught near Evansville, Indiana, after a car chase with U.S. Marshals.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. The earlier story is below.
U.S. Marshals along with law enforcement officials in Evansville, Indiana, are working together on a new tip in the investigation of escaped inmate Casey White and Vicky White, the former assistant director of corrections at Lauderdale County Jail.
A truck believed to have been used by the two fugitives from Alabama was found abandoned at a car wash, WFIE reported.
They say investigators were notified Sunday night that a 2006 Ford F-150 had been discovered. Marshals released photos of the truck and of a man believed to be Casey White.
EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WTVA) - An Indiana sheriff said Alabama jail escapee Casey White is back in custody and the corrections officer accused of helping him escape shot herself and is receiving treatment at a hospital, WAAY-TV in Huntsville, Alabama, reported.
Vanderburgh County Sheriff Dave Wedding said the two were captured in Evansville, Indiana, after a pursuit ended in a crash.
This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
They abandoned a car in Williamson County, TN, and were caught in Evansville, so they must have driven by close to where I live, within 10 miles. They probably came up I-24, and then exited onto the Pennyrile Parkway. I was on both of those roads within the past week, and now that I think about it, I was passed by a vehicle driven by this real tall dude.......
Man I tell u what, a fuggin floor jack could drop a car on me and I’d be missing for days before someone checked the shop. Meanwhile they (wife and family) would be out hittin every Goodwill and flea market, 100 mile yardsale instead of thinking about my whereabouts
I would have found a spot in the middle of nowhere - an abandoned house or barn, stocked it up with a years supply of whatever I needed and just lived like a hermit, never going out - had that all worked out ahead of time.
probably still would have been caught but running around trying to live in the public eye is never going to work.
Rockinbbar: I hope she didn't inflict any gunshot wounds onto the "dihldos" (sex toys) she bought the night before her 6' 9" boyfriend was set free from imprisonment? What a sucker crew to draw to. So much for her "Employee Of The Year" award! Affirmative action - in action! Sad. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy
In all females, the so called "brain" is at constant war with the "coochie." The coochie almost always wins.
This gal had a house, PAID OFF worth $205K. She had a nice Sheriff's Office pension lined up. She had friends and family there in small town Alabama. She dumped the house for $95K cash, and threw away her government pension, for 11 hot days of sex with a convicted murderer.
Numerous reports are that, the day prior to the break, she visited a men's store and bought large size men's clothing, and also she made purchases at an "adult store." Wonder what she bought at the adult store.
I heard she was close to retirement...I guess she thought she'd better get some before her chances are gone. He would have eventually killed her when he needed to go it alone.
She wound up dead with her life thrown away during what should have been the start of a long and happy retirement for what was a 10 day sex filled adventure and bragging rights for him.
