Alabama jail boss Vicky White had ‘special relationship’ with missing inmate
The Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office said Vicky White developed a “special relationship” with murder suspect Casey Cole White 
Casey Cole White was charged with two counts of capital murder in 2020The Alabama jail boss who allegedly absconded with a capital murder suspect had a “special relationship” with the inmate, police said Tuesday.
Vicky White, the assistant director of corrections for Lauderdale County, had gotten cozy with inmate Casey Cole White during her shifts at the rural jail and at some point developed the so-called “special relationship,” the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office said.
“Investigators received information from inmates at the Lauderdale County Detention Center over the weekend that there was a special relationship between Director White and inmate Casey White,” the agency said.
“That relationship has now been confirmed through our investigation by independent sources and means.”
The sheriff’s office declined to expound on what it meant by “special relationship” but on Monday, it announced a warrant for Vicky White’s arrest for permitting or facilitating escape in the first degree.
“We know she participated, whether she did that willingly or if she was coerced, threatened somehow to participate in the case, not really sure. We know for sure she did participate,” Sheriff Rick Singleton said at a press conference.
On Friday morning, Vicky White told staff she was taking the detainee to a mental health evaluation at the county courthouse and wasn’t questioned about it because her primary duty was to transport inmates, Singleton said.
When cops realized they were missing, they discovered there was no such appointment at the courthouse and the pair made no effort to go to the building, instead, ditching their car at a nearby shopping center parking lot and disappearing.
Prison tailor Joyce Mitchell helped murderers David Sweat (L) and Richard Matt (R) escape from Dannemora in 2015
The saga is reminiscent of David Sweat and Richard Matt’s 2015 escape from the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, New York, after the men got romantically involved with prison employee Joyce “Tilly” Mitchell and convinced her to help them escape.
The US Marshals Service has offered a $10,000 reward for any information that leads to Casey White’s capture.
“We consider both of them dangerous and in all probability both of them are armed,” US Marshal Marty Keely said at the press conference.
Sheriff Rick Singleton said his office knows Vicky White participated in murder suspect Casey Cole White’s escapeThe inmate was charged with two counts of capital murder in September 2020 after he allegedly stabbed Connie Ridgeway, 58, to death, officials said.
He’d already been serving a 75-year sentence for a 2015 crime spree in which he shot a person and a dog and held another five people at gunpoint, WBRC reported.
Singleton told CNN that Vicky White was a “model” employee and her co-workers are “devastated” by her alleged betrayal.
US Marshal Marty Keely said the agency views Casey Cole White and Vicky White as “dangerous.”

It doesn't sound good for the Deputy. I'll wager love bloomed. She is no amateur, so I believe there was sound planning which includes money, bank cards, transportation, identifications which is probably legit through Obituaries. They were probably on a plane before they were missing. She most likely cleaned out her retirement account and to avoid suspicion told others about her upcoming plans to retire. If smart, they are already in a non-extradition country by now living in an arranged condo. They may make it except for him. He is a psychotic-killer and is unusually tall.
That or they are in some Carnie infested trailer park. She is dead and he and the money are gone.
Must be a seriously mickey-mouse jail operation of the assistant director routinely takes transports out. Likewise for an operation that routinely uses one deputy for transports.
