Councilman: Wife may have taken her own life
MOULTON A Moulton councilman grieving the loss of his wife said he wouldnt be surprised to learn from state forensics that his wife took her own life.
District 5 Councilman Brent White said his wife, Jennifer Marshell White, 55, was having some very serious medical conditions. Marshell White left her Market Street home on April 8 and was last heard from in a text message in the early morning of April 9. Phone records show the texts came from Winston County.
She was taking a lot of medicines to keep things under control, he said. Some of the medicines had side effects that could increase the thoughts of suicide. Based on her texts to me and the way she had been acting, when she left I thought she was probably going to take her own life. The text sounded suicidal.

McWhorter said the investigation from his department has concluded.
Its not in my city, not in my county, he said. Its not my scene. I wasnt at the scene Sunday.
She was found. Im glad she was found so there will be some closure.
White said he wants to thank family members and friends who have supported him during his wife's disappearance.
"During this whole process, my dear friends and family who have been here for me have helped me deal with this," he said. "Something guided these people to call me, visit me and pray for me when I seemed to need it the most."
