Recovered/Located AL - Casey White, cap murder chg, & Vicky Sue White, CO w/sher office, Lauderdale, 29 Apr'22*Reward*

[citizen_sleuth]

The search continues Sunday for Alabama corrections officer Vicky White and capital murder suspect Casey Cole White more than 48 hours after the two disappeared.

Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton this morning said there are no new developments in the case.

Search continues for missing Alabama corrections officer Vicky White and murder suspect Casey Cole White

I'm honestly not going to take Sheriff Singleton's word on the state of the investigation at face value.

Now that the US Marshals, FBI, and Secret Service are involved, it's likely the feds are running the show (which is a very good thing) and the Lauderdale Co. Sheriff's Office is probably not privy to a lot of information. MOO.

I am wondering if he somehow talked her into helping with what was supposed to be a faked escape only. She was to claim he “got loose” and then retire and join him on the sly later when the heat was off. It is the only real way she could possibly use her retirement. I mean if she just planned to run off with a prisoner, why retire the day before? I just think he conned her, she fell for it and maybe was attracted to him. I do think whatever the original plan they had was, it went wrong and she is in grave danger.

I think this is a very logical theory... she was conned in what she thought was a small way ... and then turned out she was in way over her head ...

I just pray he doesn't kill anyone. He demonstrates his quest for freedom at any cost.

I really thought we would read more information by now.

Crickets is how you know the US Marshalls and FBI have taken over a case.

Hmmmm, just food for thought here and giving Vicky the benefit of the doubt..... What if someone else in the jail was involved and submitted the faked mental health appointment, she was drugged making her feel ill......... easy getaway for him. Someone else had to have been involved at that point. I can see it going both ways... she was blackmailed by someone else in corrections or the convict.

Forgot to add my other thought: could her patrol car have stopped briefly at the car lot so that they could acquire a used car for him? And then her car was moved to a less conspicuous location to be left, and they got away in the used car?

Again MOO

The way i interpret this is that it was a shopping mall parking lot with people parking there cars with for sale signs.

It would be easy to stage a car in a parking lot with a for sale sign and then swap cars. Used car lots would draw to much attention to swap cars especially in Casey is still dressed in prison uniform.

Then she'd be found groggily in the prison van after their escape? What would the point be in taking her if she had no info about where they were going? If she were a hostage I think we'd know by now.

 

[BeckyF]

My understanding is she told her subordinates she was taking him. Maybe they were loathe to question her even though it was against protocol?

That’s quite possible of course.

 

[whitelilac]

Wow.....still nothing ? Well, we don't really know since the FBI has taken over.
I hope that Vicki is still alive frankly.
However she was involved with him, I don't see this dangerous killer having her tag along in his escape.

I thought about this, too. But even if someone else did put a fake appointment in the system, CW would have just been transported with the others who had appointments that day. In the vans, with armed escorts. If Vicky did get an "ooops....last minute appointment" transport instruction after they left it would have had to have (1) come from a superior, because none of this is how things work, and (2) someone that knew all the other transport officers were gone, leaving Vicky alone and counting on her violating policy and (3) arranged a getaway vehicle, and (4) didn't care if CW killed Vicky in the process, and (5) was confident the booking officer would go along with it. So who in that jail had that kind of power and control? And even if they did, what would be their motive in arranging CW's escape, who other than being an inmate facing the death penalty, is a nobody?

I'm sure ALED and the FBI are both crawling up the butts of everyone in the chain of command at that jail and everyone else that works there to see who else, if anybody, was involved in this.

Such a cluster. IMO

I'm worried for her, too. Even if she did orchestrate this. She has served her purpose in freeing him from the jail and basically became expendable as soon as that was accomplished. Unless she is related to him (which I still suspect). For her sake I hope she is. imo

ETA: She's also in danger because this situation is going to end up in an armed stand-off just like it did last time he was surrounded by LE when they tracked him down in 2015. This time he won't be pointing a gun at his own head, he'll be pointing it at hers.

It's kind of murky, but I think the car was in the same spot. It didn't say the patrol car was seen at a car lot. It was seen parked among cars that were for sale. It's kind of the same situation at the back corner of our Walmart parking lot. People park their cars there with for sale signs on them. It's technically still the shopping center parking lot, but with parked cars for sale. If that makes sense. IMO

I think that's what it is too. I think the official timeline that was released was clunky in its wording, leaving it open to interpretation.

I really wonder if she has a personal vehicle and, if so, what it is. Is it missing? Or does she have an elderly parent or relative who no longer drives and she has access to their vehicle?

MOO.

Possible that rather than helping him escape, her plan was to take him somewhere for a few hours (whether for a romantic escapade, helping him attend to something he said he wanted to do, or the like) and then bring him to the courthouse after that. She may have believed he was going to willingly come back, but things went awry and he used her to flee. She could have thought no one would find out that there were a few hours missing between when they left the jail and when he got to court. That fits the current evidence better, IMO.

Edit: Actually, no that doesn't fit either since there was no scheduled event at court. But she could have been thinking she would take him out for a few hours then bring him back to the jail herself.

this thought makes the hair on my arms stand-up, sadly, we know it is a distinct possibility. People, all genders, are often unaware of their manipulation by a clever actor. The criminal mind is dangerous.

I can't think of any way to spin the facts that would make me believe that VW isn't guilty of willingly orchestrating CW's escape. I agree that CW will get rid of her when she is no longer useful to him, but unless he is meeting up with someone, I think that he might want to keep her around for awhile. Wherever they are hiding out, the time will come that they will need food and other supplies. It would be much easier for her to disguise her appearance and go unrecognized in public than for him to do so -- he would stand out because of his size. Of course she is also useful as a potential hostage.
