Mega Edition: Vicky White And Her Brazen Plan To Help Her Lover Escape Prison (10/8/26) · Beyond The Horizon

0:00
Speaker 1: What's up everyone and welcome back to the program. Down
0:04
Speaker 1: in Alabama we have a wild story unfolding. A corrections
0:09
Speaker 1: officer was supposed to be escorting an inmate from the
0:13
Speaker 1: jail to a mental health evaluation when the inmate and
0:18
Speaker 1: the guard both disappeared. Now first glance, you would think,
0:25
Speaker 1: holy shit, the inmate did something to the guard, and
0:28
Speaker 1: now the inmate's on the run. Well, it looks like
0:31
Speaker 1: it's something more sinister than that. To me, anyway, from
0:35
Speaker 1: what we have so far, it looks like this corrections officer,
0:41
Speaker 1: this assistant director of corrections, it looks like she helped
0:45
Speaker 1: this guy get away. So let's get into this story
0:49
Speaker 1: from Alabama.com, and let's see what William Thornton and Howard
0:56
Speaker 1: Koplowitz have to say. Headline. Hunt ongoing for missing Alabama
1:02
Speaker 1: capital murder suspect and corrections officer who violated policy. So
1:08
Speaker 1: she wasn't supposed to be transporting this dude by herself.
1:11
Speaker 1: It's supposed to be two corrections officers for all transports, but...
1:16
Speaker 1: Looks like she flexed her muscle here, being that she
1:20
Speaker 1: is the assistant director, and was able to finagle things
1:24
Speaker 1: to get it into a situation where she was alone
1:28
Speaker 1: with this gentleman named Casey Cole White, who is a
1:32
Speaker 1: suspect in a capital murder case. The Lauderdale County corrections officer,
1:38
Speaker 1: who was missing along with a capital murder suspect, violated
1:42
Speaker 1: sheriff's office policy, By escorting him alone, Sheriff Rick Singleton
1:46
Speaker 1: said Friday night. Right away, that brings alarm bells, right?
1:51
Speaker 1: Remember the escape of Dan Mora, where the prison employee
1:55
Speaker 1: helped the dudes escape? Same kind of shit I'm getting here,
1:59
Speaker 1: same kind of vibes. The officer, Assistant Director of Corrections,
2:05
Speaker 1: Vicki White, also told her colleagues that she was taking
2:08
Speaker 1: inmate Casey Colwight, no relation, to the Lauderdale County Courthouse
2:13
Speaker 1: for a mental evaluation, even though no such evaluation or
2:18
Speaker 1: any other court appearance was scheduled for the inmate, Singleton said. Now,
2:23
Speaker 1: how in the hell are her colleagues going to let
2:25
Speaker 1: her get away with that? I understand that she's the boss,
2:29
Speaker 1: the assistant director, but don't you call the actual director
2:32
Speaker 1: at that point and say, hey, something's amiss? It just
2:37
Speaker 1: seems weird that they would let Anyone, never mind a woman,
2:42
Speaker 1: escort this guy by himself. Vicki White also told her
2:48
Speaker 1: colleagues that she was going to seek medical attention after
2:51
Speaker 1: dropping White off at court because she wasn't feeling well.
2:56
Speaker 1: But Singleton said his office confirmed no medical appointment was made. So,
3:01
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't have to be a genius here
3:03
Speaker 1: to see what's going on, right? You don't have to
3:06
Speaker 1: be some kind of great explorer or investigator to understand
3:11
Speaker 1: That sure looks like she was in on this. How
3:15
Speaker 1: else would he be able to get away? How else
3:17
Speaker 1: would the environment be so pristine for him to attempt
3:22
Speaker 1: to get away? Unless he had a little bit of help.
3:25
Speaker 1: Capital murder suspect, you would think. Getting transported by at
3:30
Speaker 1: least multiple guards. Certainly not by anyone by themselves, never
3:36
Speaker 1: mind a woman by herself. We're still aggressively investigating, trying
3:44
Speaker 1: to find out what happened and find the location of
3:46
Speaker 1: Deputy White and Inmate White, the sheriff told reporters at
3:50
Speaker 1: a news conference. So aren't there any like tracking devices
3:54
Speaker 1: on these vehicles? How about the phones? You can't. Maybe
3:57
Speaker 1: they threw their phones out so they can't be tracked.
3:59
Speaker 1: I don't know. But what we do know is we
4:02
Speaker 1: have a suspected capital murder suspect on the run right now.
4:07
Speaker 1: And who the fuck knows what he's capable of? And furthermore,
4:11
Speaker 1: if this lady, Vicky White, is brazen enough to help
4:18
Speaker 1: him escape, then who knows what she's capable of. Just
4:22
Speaker 1: because somebody's a police officer or a corrections officer or
4:26
Speaker 1: a judge or a politician doesn't mean they're not capable
4:30
Speaker 1: of great evil. And we know when people are quote-unquote
4:36
Speaker 1: in love or whatever... They'll do some crazy and wild shit. Obviously,
4:41
Speaker 1: this lady is willing to go to prison for this
4:44
Speaker 1: guy anyway if she's helping him get out, which it
4:46
Speaker 1: certainly looks like she did. So hopefully they get this
4:51
Speaker 1: dude soon because a violent person like this out there
4:55
Speaker 1: on the run, on the loose, very dangerous. Although Lauderdale
5:02
Speaker 1: County officials spelled her first name Vickie, with an I,
5:06
Speaker 1: an Alabama law enforcement agency, and a 2016 AL.com article
5:11
Speaker 1: spelled at Vicki. It was not immediately clear which is
5:15
Speaker 1: the accurate spelling. Well, you'd want to have the accurate spelling, right?
5:18
Speaker 1: Kind of know what you're looking for. The corrections officer
5:21
Speaker 1: and capital murder suspect left the jail at 9.41 a.m.
5:24
Speaker 1: on Friday. Shortly after 11 a.m., a citizen spotted White's
5:30
Speaker 1: patrol vehicle in the parking lot of a Florence shopping center.
5:34
Speaker 1: My guess is they switched vehicles, probably had something set
5:39
Speaker 1: up waiting for them, um, a recently purchased vehicle, a
5:44
Speaker 1: vehicle that, you know, was in her possession already, whatever
5:47
Speaker 1: it might be, they had it set up where that
5:49
Speaker 1: vehicle was ready for them to switch over. Because my
5:53
Speaker 1: guess is, in the patrol vehicle, they could be tracked.
5:56
Speaker 1: Some sort of GPS or guidance on there or whatever
6:00
Speaker 1: it is. Around 3.30 p.m., a booking officer at the
6:05
Speaker 1: jail reported to another assistant director of corrections that they
6:09
Speaker 1: were trying to contact Vicki White, But they couldn't get
6:12
Speaker 1: in touch with her, the sheriff said. So you mean
6:15
Speaker 1: to tell me this guy's been gone since 941 and
6:21
Speaker 1: it's 330 and you're just looking for where they're at
6:25
Speaker 1: or what's going on with them? Everybody who's involved here
6:31
Speaker 1: needs to be reprimanded. How is it that anyone lets
6:34
Speaker 1: her leave with this dude on her own? The sheriff's
6:39
Speaker 1: office also confirmed that Casey Cole White was not back
6:43
Speaker 1: at the jail, and an investigation in search for the
6:45
Speaker 1: pair ensued. Singleton said Vicki White was escorting Casey Cole
6:50
Speaker 1: White alone, which is a strict violation of policy. Two
6:55
Speaker 1: sworn deputies are supposed to escort an inmate. So if
6:58
Speaker 1: you're working with this lady, and you're one of her co-workers,
7:03
Speaker 1: and even if she's your boss... Don't you think that
7:06
Speaker 1: it's a good idea to report right away that she's
7:11
Speaker 1: trying to escort an inmate on her own, breaking policy?
7:14
Speaker 1: That's a pretty serious policy to break. It's not like
7:16
Speaker 1: she's taking an extra smoke break. Not like she's, you know,
7:20
Speaker 1: going to go home and do some laundry instead of,
7:23
Speaker 1: you know, working her shift. Fine, that's one thing. But
7:26
Speaker 1: if you're breaking policy like this and you're escorting an
7:29
Speaker 1: inmate on your own, I would think that somebody within
7:34
Speaker 1: the structure here, somebody who's one of her co-workers, would
7:37
Speaker 1: step up to the plate and either say, hey, look,
7:39
Speaker 1: I don't think this is a good idea, or B, fine,
7:42
Speaker 1: you can do this, but I'm going to call, insert
7:45
Speaker 1: whoever our boss is, and get verification that you're doing this.
7:53
Speaker 1: The sheriff said Vicki White has been an exemplary employee
7:56
Speaker 1: of and was promoted from sergeant to assistant director. Again,
8:00
Speaker 1: just because you've been a great employee in the past
8:04
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you're a great employee now. Now, of course,
8:08
Speaker 1: I guess there's a chance that, you know, this dude
8:12
Speaker 1: overpowered her or whatever, but all of this other stuff
8:17
Speaker 1: is just too sheisty for me, too suspect. Hers, you know,
8:21
Speaker 1: bringing him alone, saying she has a doctor's appointment that
8:25
Speaker 1: she never had. None of that adds up. So certainly
8:29
Speaker 1: looks like to me anyway, she's helping this guy and
8:32
Speaker 1: facilitating this escape. Authorities are investigating all possibilities in the
8:38
Speaker 1: pair's disappearance, including whether Vicky White assisted the inmate escaping
8:43
Speaker 1: or if she was kidnapped. Well, if all of this
8:46
Speaker 1: other stuff wasn't lined up, I would say, yeah, probably kidnapped.
8:50
Speaker 1: but it doesn't look that way to me. Now, obviously,
8:53
Speaker 1: I only have the information you have, and I'm going
8:56
Speaker 1: off what we have in this article. But when you
8:59
Speaker 1: look at how it, you know, lined up and how
9:01
Speaker 1: this all came about, certainly seems to me that this
9:04
Speaker 1: was put into motion previously, and then the plan was,
9:09
Speaker 1: you know, put into place and acted upon on this date.
9:15
Speaker 1: I think she's in danger, whatever the circumstances, Singleton said.
9:19
Speaker 1: He was in jail for capital murder. Well, I mean,
9:22
Speaker 1: if you're a prison guard or a jail guard, you
9:26
Speaker 1: should know the sort of dangerous individuals you're dealing with.
9:31
Speaker 1: So how some of these prison guards are charmed by
9:34
Speaker 1: these people is just beyond me. The state has issued
9:37
Speaker 1: a blue alert, and the U.S. Marshals Service, FBI, and
9:41
Speaker 1: Alabama Law Enforcement Agency are assisting the sheriff's office in
9:45
Speaker 1: their search. Investigators are now looking for any video evidence
9:50
Speaker 1: that might lead to more information, including the description of
9:53
Speaker 1: a vehicle that may have been used after White's patrol
9:56
Speaker 1: vehicle was left abandoned. So if it was left in
9:59
Speaker 1: the marketplace parking lot. You would think there has to
10:04
Speaker 1: be some cameras right? I'm guessing they've dove into that
10:08
Speaker 1: information already. And looked at it. Casey White is a
10:13
Speaker 1: capital murder suspect. With multiple prior convictions. White 38. was
10:18
Speaker 1: charged in 2020 with two counts of capital murder in
10:22
Speaker 1: the brutal October 23, 2015, murder-for-hire slaying of Connie Jane Ridgeway. Ridgeway, 59,
10:32
Speaker 1: was found dead in her home at the Meadowland Apartments
10:35
Speaker 1: on Prince Drive in Rogersville, located across the street from
10:39
Speaker 1: Lauderdale County High School's football field. Rogersville police were called
10:44
Speaker 1: to Ridgeway's apartment around 6 p.m. that Friday, by a
10:47
Speaker 1: neighbor requesting a welfare check. She was found slain in
10:50
Speaker 1: her living room. Hell of a guy to help escape, huh?
10:53
Speaker 1: I mean, what is wrong with this lady? What are
10:57
Speaker 1: you doing? I mean, honestly, what's wrong with your brain?
11:00
Speaker 1: Somebody should give your head a good shake. In December 2015...
11:05
Speaker 1: White was arrested after authorities said he staged in one
11:08
Speaker 1: night a home invasion, two carjackings, and multiple shootings in
11:13
Speaker 1: North Alabama and South Tennessee that left a dog dead
11:17
Speaker 1: and a woman injured. In 2019, he was found guilty
11:20
Speaker 1: of a total of nine charges, including trying to kill
11:23
Speaker 1: his ex-girlfriend and kidnapping her two roommates. Hell of a
11:27
Speaker 1: guy you decided to sneak away with. I mean, what
11:30
Speaker 1: the fuck is wrong with people? Like, honestly. Honestly. Other
11:36
Speaker 1: charges included first-degree robbery, first-degree burglary, third-degree burglary, breaking and
11:44
Speaker 1: entering a vehicle, animal cruelty for shooting a dog, and
11:47
Speaker 1: attempting to elude. Anyone who sees Casey White is advised
11:51
Speaker 1: to contact 911 immediately and not approach. He is described
11:55
Speaker 1: as standing six feet, six inches tall, weighing 252 pounds. Well,
11:59
Speaker 1: first of all, Anyone who hurts animals is an absolute
12:05
Speaker 1: prick in my book. So this guy has a bunch
12:08
Speaker 1: of strikes against him. What I'm hoping is some nice, southern,
12:14
Speaker 1: corn-fed local boy runs into him and gives him the business.
12:20
Speaker 1: But either way, let's hope this guy is captured soon
12:24
Speaker 1: and we get some more answers here because obviously he's
12:27
Speaker 1: a dangerous person, a violent felon, And most certainly is
12:33
Speaker 1: somebody who is going to continue on their criminalistic path.
12:39
Speaker 1: This isn't somebody who is going to lay low. They're
12:41
Speaker 1: going to have to have a way to survive. And
12:44
Speaker 1: I'm guessing that some misery is on the way if
12:46
Speaker 1: this dude isn't captured. Because dangerous people like this, when
12:50
Speaker 1: they're backed into a corner, forget it. So hopefully the
12:54
Speaker 1: authorities track this scumbag down pretty soon. All right, everybody,
12:58
Speaker 1: that's going to do it for this episode. If you'd
13:00
Speaker 1: like to contact me, you can do that at bobbycapucci

13:12
Speaker 1: me on Twitter at B-O-B-B-Y underscore C-A-P-U-C-C-I. The link that
13:20
Speaker 1: we discussed can be found in the description box. All right, folks,
13:24
Speaker 1: I'll be back later on with a little bit more.
13:26
Speaker 1: Hope all of you Having a great day. What's up, everyone?
13:29
Speaker 1: And welcome back to the program. This morning, we were
13:33
Speaker 1: talking about the Alabama corrections officer who went missing with
13:38
Speaker 1: the Capitol murder suspect. And well, there's some more information
13:42
Speaker 1: coming out about that. So I figured we'd hop on
13:45
Speaker 1: real quick, add it to the catalog and keep ourselves
13:49
Speaker 1: up to date. So let's take a look at this
13:51
Speaker 1: article from Law and Crime and let's see what Colin
13:56
Speaker 1: Kalmbacher has come up with. Headline, whether she assisted him
14:01
Speaker 1: or not, we don't know. Nationwide manhunt as Alabama murder
14:05
Speaker 1: suspect and deputy vanish under mysterious circumstances. I mean, with
14:11
Speaker 1: everything we learned earlier, how could... she not have assisted him?
14:16
Speaker 1: Why didn't she have another guard helper? Why would she
14:19
Speaker 1: make an appointment to say she's going to the doctor
14:21
Speaker 1: she never goes to? None of it adds up. A
14:25
Speaker 1: sheriff's deputy in Alabama has gone missing, along with a
14:28
Speaker 1: murder suspect. She was in the process of transferring to
14:32
Speaker 1: a court appearance earlier this week, a county sheriff's office
14:36
Speaker 1: announced on Friday. Casey Cole White, 39, was an inmate
14:41
Speaker 1: being held on murder charges over the 2015 stabbing death
14:46
Speaker 1: of Connie Jane Ridgeway, the victim of a murder-for-hire scheme
14:50
Speaker 1: who was killed in her own home. Hell of a
14:52
Speaker 1: guy here that's on the run, huh? So you got
14:55
Speaker 1: an assassin and what looks like a rogue corrections officer,
15:02
Speaker 1: if all of this evidence lines up, and some kind
15:06
Speaker 1: of twisted, I don't know, what do you want to
15:09
Speaker 1: call it? Some sort of twisted Romeo and Juliet type story?
15:13
Speaker 1: Who the hell knows? On Friday at around 9.30 a.m.,
15:18
Speaker 1: Inmate White was being transported by Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office
15:23
Speaker 1: Assistant Director of Corrections, Vicki White, no relation, to a
15:27
Speaker 1: court appearance when the two vanished, the LCSO said in
15:32
Speaker 1: a press release alert. No, how do you just vanish, okay?
15:37
Speaker 1: That doesn't make any sense, first of all. This day
15:39
Speaker 1: and age to just vanish? Nobody has any idea where
15:42
Speaker 1: these people are? Casey White is being held on capital
15:47
Speaker 1: murder charges, the alert said. If anyone should spot them,
15:51
Speaker 1: contact 911 immediately. Probably a good idea. If this guy's
15:56
Speaker 1: already wanted on murder charges, no telling what he'll do.
16:02
Speaker 1: According to the sheriff's office, the disappearance of the two
16:05
Speaker 1: was not realized until roughly 3.30 p.m. that same day.
16:10
Speaker 1: So they had about a six-hour head start. We know
16:13
Speaker 1: that the car was found, the police car was found
16:16
Speaker 1: in a shopping market parking lot. And then from there...
16:21
Speaker 1: They either A, made their getaway together or if she
16:23
Speaker 1: was taken against her will, which I find hard to
16:27
Speaker 1: believe at this point, then that was the jump off
16:30
Speaker 1: point where the escape began. Was somebody else involved? Did
16:34
Speaker 1: somebody else come and pick them up? Did they have
16:36
Speaker 1: another car waiting for them? We don't have those details yet.
16:41
Speaker 1: Vicky White was driving a marked vehicle at the time.
16:44
Speaker 1: The vehicle was discovered at a parking lot in Florence,
16:47
Speaker 1: Alabama at around 11 a.m. on the day in question.
16:51
Speaker 1: Authorities say they do not know which direction the two
16:54
Speaker 1: may have gone at this time. So it's in a
16:59
Speaker 1: parking lot in Florence, Alabama. There's no cameras, no nothing.
17:04
Speaker 1: Nobody saw anything. Nobody heard anything. Hell of a job
17:08
Speaker 1: they're doing down there in Alabama. were still aggressively investigating,
17:14
Speaker 1: trying to find out what happened and find the location
17:18
Speaker 1: of Deputy White and inmate White. Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick
17:21
Speaker 1: Singleton said during a press conference on April 19th, 2022,
17:27
Speaker 1: knowing the inmate, I think she's in danger, whatever the circumstances.
17:31
Speaker 1: He was in jail for capital murder and had nothing
17:34
Speaker 1: to lose. I mean, okay, but how about... doing with
17:42
Speaker 1: all that aggressive investigating? Trust me, I'm not doing any
17:46
Speaker 1: aggressive investigating over here. And it certainly looks like your
17:50
Speaker 1: deputy was in on it. How else is he going
17:52
Speaker 1: to be alone with her? How else is he going
17:54
Speaker 1: to set all of this up? I mean, come on.
17:57
Speaker 1: Sometimes when it quacks, you got to call it a duck, right?
18:02
Speaker 1: Singleton added White has been an employee with the sheriff's
18:05
Speaker 1: office for some 25 years and and told her subordinates
18:09
Speaker 1: that she was taking Casey White in for a mental
18:12
Speaker 1: health evaluation before she would drop the inmate off and
18:15
Speaker 1: then seek medical attention for herself because she was under
18:19
Speaker 1: the weather. So none of that adds up. If you're
18:22
Speaker 1: under the weather, why would you be taking a dangerous
18:25
Speaker 1: man by yourself to some court appearance? You don't feel
18:30
Speaker 1: good as it is. You're a woman. You don't want
18:32
Speaker 1: to get overpowered. This is a big ass dude over
18:34
Speaker 1: six foot four. So right away, that sends alarm bells
18:38
Speaker 1: ringing off in my head. And furthermore, if you were
18:41
Speaker 1: sick and you needed medical attention sick, why are you
18:45
Speaker 1: around anybody else? Go to the doctor. Get checked out.
18:47
Speaker 1: We're in the middle of a pandemic. What are you doing?
18:53
Speaker 1: Traveling alone with inmates, however, is a strict violation of
18:56
Speaker 1: departmental policy, the sheriff said, suggesting that the deputy was
19:01
Speaker 1: likely not questioned due to her seniority. I mean, huh?
19:06
Speaker 1: When you're in a situation like this, if you question
19:09
Speaker 1: somebody and they tell you to shut your yap, you
19:12
Speaker 1: should probably call their boss as well. We're not talking
19:15
Speaker 1: about somebody who stepped out back to smoke a joint.
19:18
Speaker 1: This is serious, dangerous shit, not only for the person
19:22
Speaker 1: in question, but for the community at large. We're talking
19:25
Speaker 1: about somebody who has not shied away from killing people
19:28
Speaker 1: in the past. What would make anyone think he'd be
19:30
Speaker 1: shying away from it now? Since aggressively beginning their investigation,
19:37
Speaker 1: Singleton said investigators have learned that Casey White never made
19:41
Speaker 1: it to the courthouse, never had any evaluation scheduled, and
19:45
Speaker 1: that Vicki White never turned up at any urgent care
19:49
Speaker 1: locations ever. in the area. Now there's a lot to
19:52
Speaker 1: unpack there. So he never had any evaluation scheduled in
19:56
Speaker 1: the first place. So how would he get her to
20:00
Speaker 1: take him to this? What did he call her to
20:02
Speaker 1: tell her? Hey, look, I called on my own time
20:05
Speaker 1: while I was in the cantina and I got this,
20:07
Speaker 1: you know, appointment that I need to go to. It
20:10
Speaker 1: wouldn't happen like that. It would have to be facilitated
20:13
Speaker 1: by the jail, by whoever does the, you know, scheduling
20:17
Speaker 1: for inmates to go get checkups or whatever. So that
20:20
Speaker 1: doesn't add up. And when you talk about her not
20:28
Speaker 1: going to any urgent care location, isn't there a nurse
20:32
Speaker 1: or a triage center on property for the hospital that
20:37
Speaker 1: these folks can use? Now, I don't know that for sure,
20:40
Speaker 1: but I'm asking a question. You would think that these
20:42
Speaker 1: are employees of the police department that have at the
20:45
Speaker 1: very least some kind of urgent care for people who
20:48
Speaker 1: might get sick or hurt in a scuffle with inmates
20:52
Speaker 1: or whatever. The sheriff said that he and his department
20:59
Speaker 1: were shocked at the turn of events and allowed for
21:02
Speaker 1: the distinct possibility that his employee had allowed the inmate
21:05
Speaker 1: to escape. The distinct possibility, huh? Come on, man. We
21:09
Speaker 1: all know that that's what happened. At least that's what
21:11
Speaker 1: it looks like. But that Casey White also could have
21:14
Speaker 1: overpowered and kidnapped Vicky White. Well, that doesn't, that's possible. Look,
21:19
Speaker 1: and if there was multiple guards there and protocol was
21:23
Speaker 1: followed and he actually had something set up that he
21:25
Speaker 1: was going to, then I'd be a lot more willing
21:28
Speaker 1: to believe that. But we've seen it before. How many
21:32
Speaker 1: corrections officers have helped inmates escape, bring in contraband, have
21:37
Speaker 1: affairs with them? Seen it a million times. The deputy,
21:43
Speaker 1: he noted, had turned in her retirement papers the day
21:46
Speaker 1: before she and the murder suspect went missing. Singleton also
21:51
Speaker 1: said the investigation would take a look at previous interactions
21:54
Speaker 1: between the two to see if something else was going on. Oh,
21:58
Speaker 1: there's a lot here, folks. A whole bunch that don't
22:01
Speaker 1: make sense. She turned in her retirement papers? Yeah, well,
22:05
Speaker 1: I guess she thought she was going to draw some
22:06
Speaker 1: retirement on the lamb or something. This is a wild story,
22:11
Speaker 1: and we're not even coming close to hearing even a
22:15
Speaker 1: bit of the actual meat of what's going on here.
22:21
Speaker 1: Whether she assisted him or not, we don't know, and
22:24
Speaker 1: we won't address that until we have absolute proof that
22:27
Speaker 1: that's what happened, said the sheriff. We are assuming at
22:30
Speaker 1: this point that she was taken against her will, unless
22:33
Speaker 1: we can absolutely prove otherwise. Wow. Okay. I mean, again,
22:38
Speaker 1: we're talking about Alabama. I just said it recently. There's
22:42
Speaker 1: zero chance I would live in the South. Zero chance.
22:45
Speaker 1: The law enforcement down there is not very good, in
22:47
Speaker 1: my opinion. And just the overall atmosphere in a place
22:52
Speaker 1: like Alabama is not a place for me. You would
22:57
Speaker 1: think automatically you'd be suspicious with all of this other stuff.
23:01
Speaker 1: And I get it, right? You don't want to come
23:03
Speaker 1: out and publicly say, oh, well, my deputy was in
23:06
Speaker 1: on it if she wasn't. But how about just no
23:09
Speaker 1: comment at this point? Because when you look at what's
23:12
Speaker 1: been available to us here, if these details are all
23:17
Speaker 1: accurate that are being given to us by the authorities,
23:20
Speaker 1: then it certainly looks like he had to have help.
23:23
Speaker 1: He couldn't do this on his own. The Mysterious Disappearing
23:28
Speaker 1: Act has taken on national levels of interest as the
23:32
Speaker 1: FBI and U.S. Marshals are currently assisting the Alabama Law
23:35
Speaker 1: Enforcement Agency in trying to track the duo down. I'm
23:39
Speaker 1: waiting for Tommy Lee Jones to show up at this point.
23:42
Speaker 1: Investigators are currently attempting to locate any video that may
23:46
Speaker 1: tell us more about what we're dealing with, Singleton said.
23:50
Speaker 1: White was originally arrested in late 2015 after being wanted
23:55
Speaker 1: in connection with a multi-state crime spree. Now, how in
23:59
Speaker 1: the hell, as a woman or a man or whatever,
24:02
Speaker 1: can you be working in one of these facilities? And
24:05
Speaker 1: get the bright idea that it's a good idea to
24:08
Speaker 1: engage in a relationship with one of these morons. One
24:12
Speaker 1: of these boneheads. Dudes in there for all kinds of
24:15
Speaker 1: vicious murders, this, that, the other thing. And that's the
24:18
Speaker 1: best you can do? You can't hop on OkCupid, go
24:22
Speaker 1: down to the local watering hole, whatever it is, and
24:24
Speaker 1: find somebody better? I honestly don't know what's wrong with people.
24:29
Speaker 1: I seriously, it's very fascinating to me the way the
24:33
Speaker 1: human mind works when it comes to people who think
24:36
Speaker 1: it's a good idea to getting involved with inmates or
24:40
Speaker 1: murderers or writing love letters to serial killers. I just
24:44
Speaker 1: don't understand. The defendant was previously in Alabama state custody,
24:50
Speaker 1: but was transferred to Lauderdale County over the Ridgeway killing.
24:55
Speaker 1: He has previously been convicted of robbery in the first degree,
24:58
Speaker 1: burglary in the first degree and third degree, burglary of
25:02
Speaker 1: a vehicle, animal cruelty for killing a dog and attempting
25:05
Speaker 1: to elude law enforcement. He has additionally been accused of
25:09
Speaker 1: attempted murder and kidnapping. A so-called blue alert has been
25:14
Speaker 1: issued in the case. So I honestly, it's my opinion
25:20
Speaker 1: and I don't know this for a fact, right? Maybe
25:22
Speaker 1: he did overpower her and we're going to hear some
25:24
Speaker 1: kind of fascinating backstory on how he set it up
25:28
Speaker 1: and had people thinking that he was going to get
25:30
Speaker 1: some evaluation that didn't even exist. Maybe that's going to occur.
25:34
Speaker 1: But as it stands right now, Seems to me like
25:38
Speaker 1: we have a rogue deputy on our hands who helped
25:44
Speaker 1: and not only that, but facilitated the escape of a
25:48
Speaker 1: very dangerous criminal. But I guess we'll have to see
25:52
Speaker 1: until they're captured so we can get the full and
25:54
Speaker 1: complete story. Because I don't see these two as that sophisticated,
25:59
Speaker 1: that they're going to be able to duck and dodge
26:01
Speaker 1: the FBI, the U.S. Marshal Service, and whatever else the
26:06
Speaker 1: feds decide to deploy trying to bring these people in. Now,
26:11
Speaker 1: it's going to be one hell of a fascinating story
26:13
Speaker 1: if somehow she was, you know, overwhelmed and kidnapped. I'd
26:18
Speaker 1: love to hear the details. Either way, there you have it, folks.
26:21
Speaker 1: That's the update. There's some more context, some more details,
26:25
Speaker 1: and we'll continue to fill in the blanks as more
26:28
Speaker 1: information becomes available. If you'd like to contact me, you
26:32
Speaker 1: can do that at bobbycapucci at protonmail.com. That's B-O-B-B-Y-C-A-P-U-C-C-I at protonmail.com.
26:42
Speaker 1: You can also find me on Twitter at B-O-B-B-Y underscore C-A-P-U-C-C-I.
26:50
Speaker 1: The link that we discussed can be found in the
26:52
Speaker 1: description box. What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the program.
26:58
Speaker 1: So the manhunt is still on for the Alabama corrections
27:02
Speaker 1: officer and the suspect who is charged with capital murder. Now,
27:07
Speaker 1: the whole entire scenario seemed funky to me from Jump Street.
27:11
Speaker 1: When we were first learning about this and we heard
27:14
Speaker 1: that the corrections officer broke protocol, that was a red
27:18
Speaker 1: flag right away. Then we hear that there was never
27:21
Speaker 1: even a transport set up. That's another red flag. Then
27:26
Speaker 1: we hear that she has a doctor's appointment she has
27:29
Speaker 1: to go to after she drops the prisoner off. Another
27:32
Speaker 1: red flag. So all of this stuff, when we first
27:36
Speaker 1: were learning about this, certainly directed me towards... the corrections
27:42
Speaker 1: officer being in on it. And nothing we have learned
27:45
Speaker 1: recently has knocked me off of that course. I'm pretty
27:50
Speaker 1: sure that this lady had, you know, a part to
27:54
Speaker 1: play in this. It doesn't look like it was an
27:57
Speaker 1: organic escape. It doesn't look like this was an opportunistic
28:01
Speaker 1: move by the inmate. It looks like, you know, they
28:05
Speaker 1: somehow built some kind of friendship or relationship while he
28:08
Speaker 1: was in custody. And either he was able to gaslight
28:13
Speaker 1: her or she fell in love with them, whatever it
28:15
Speaker 1: might be. But something happened to, you know, push her
28:21
Speaker 1: into this direction. And again, that's my guess. I don't
28:24
Speaker 1: have any, you know, locked in hard information on that
28:27
Speaker 1: or sources. But when you start reading the tea leaves
28:31
Speaker 1: and you see what's going on here, it's hard to
28:35
Speaker 1: come to any other conclusion, at least in my opinion,
28:38
Speaker 1: besides that this corrections officer was in on it. So
28:42
Speaker 1: let's check out this article from CNN and let's get
28:45
Speaker 1: an update from authors Elizabeth Wolf, Nadia Romero, and Maria Cartagena. Headline,
28:54
Speaker 1: authorities don't know what kind of vehicle an Alabama inmate
28:57
Speaker 1: and corrections officer disappeared in. They're working now to find out.
29:02
Speaker 1: So this is all just a gigantic shit show. They
29:04
Speaker 1: have no idea where these two are. They have no
29:07
Speaker 1: idea what's going on. At least they haven't told us publicly.
29:10
Speaker 1: They probably have a better idea than we do. Like usual,
29:13
Speaker 1: behind the scenes, they have things going on, investigations, what
29:16
Speaker 1: have you. But for the most part, looks like they're
29:20
Speaker 1: really not too hip on where these two are at.
29:25
Speaker 1: So it's going to be interesting to see how they're
29:27
Speaker 1: tracked down. The search for a missing Alabama inmate and
29:32
Speaker 1: a corrections officer continues Monday as authorities pursue leads that
29:37
Speaker 1: may help identify the vehicle they disadvantaged. in, the sheriff said.
29:42
Speaker 1: All right, so from that first sentence, it looks like
29:44
Speaker 1: the sheriff is saying at least they have a lead
29:46
Speaker 1: or some leads, which is good. Hopefully they got some
29:49
Speaker 1: CCTV footage and they know exactly what kind of vehicle
29:53
Speaker 1: they're in. The pair went missing Friday after Vicki White,
29:57
Speaker 1: assistant director of corrections for the Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office,
30:02
Speaker 1: said she was taking inmate Casey White, who was being
30:05
Speaker 1: held on murder charges for a mental health evaluation at
30:08
Speaker 1: the county courthouse. Okay, first of all, there's just a
30:12
Speaker 1: lot there. Why would you have to transfer somebody to
30:14
Speaker 1: the county courthouse for a mental health evaluation? Wouldn't you
30:18
Speaker 1: just bring a doctor in to have a sit-down with him,
30:20
Speaker 1: bring in a psychiatrist, have him sit down with the inmate,
30:23
Speaker 1: especially a dangerous inmate such as this? But the officer
30:29
Speaker 1: and inmate, who officials say are not related, never arrived
30:32
Speaker 1: at the courthouse, and authorities later discovered there was no
30:36
Speaker 1: evaluation or hearing scheduled for Casey White that day. So,
30:41
Speaker 1: right there, right away, if you didn't know anything else
30:44
Speaker 1: about this story, what would you think? How could the
30:48
Speaker 1: prisoner manipulate all of this himself without help? He's in
30:51
Speaker 1: a jail cell. He's not the one who schedules this stuff.
30:54
Speaker 1: So without help from an outside force, there's no way
30:57
Speaker 1: that this could have been facilitated. When Vicki White, an
31:02
Speaker 1: exemplary employee who submitted her retirement papers last week, checked
31:06
Speaker 1: Casey Wyatt out of the detention center around 9.30 a.m.,
31:11
Speaker 1: she said she was going to drop him off at
31:13
Speaker 1: the courthouse. Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton said, Alright, there
31:19
Speaker 1: needs to be safeguards in place for that. I don't
31:21
Speaker 1: care if you're the boss of the whole system. You're
31:24
Speaker 1: an employee of the people of whatever state you're working for.
31:28
Speaker 1: You can't just arbitrarily decide you're going to pull a
31:31
Speaker 1: prisoner out and move them wherever the fuck you want
31:33
Speaker 1: to move them. So there needs to be safeguards in
31:35
Speaker 1: place here. And I'll tell you what, the more I
31:38
Speaker 1: read about law enforcement in the South, again, I said
31:41
Speaker 1: this yesterday, and I'll say it again, I have zero
31:44
Speaker 1: desire to live down there, which sucks because it's a
31:46
Speaker 1: beautiful place. But these local yokels? No thank you. No
31:51
Speaker 1: thank you at all. She then planned to get medical care,
31:56
Speaker 1: she said, because she wasn't feeling well, Singleton said. But
32:00
Speaker 1: she never arrived. Yeah, she obviously wasn't feeling well. Making
32:04
Speaker 1: a decision like this probably was having a mental breakdown.
32:07
Speaker 1: Who the hell decides that, ah, you know what? Not
32:10
Speaker 1: only am I going to fall in love with this
32:11
Speaker 1: capital murderer or whatever, start a relationship with him, I'm
32:15
Speaker 1: going to help spring him from jail. The afternoon concerned
32:20
Speaker 1: officers at the jail tried to call Vicki White, but
32:23
Speaker 1: her phone went straight to voicemail. They then found Casey
32:27
Speaker 1: White had never been returned to jail. This is like
32:30
Speaker 1: something out of a bad movie on TV. How does
32:32
Speaker 1: this even happen? Then again, what it goes to show
32:36
Speaker 1: you is our corrections facilities, the Bureau of Prisons in general,
32:41
Speaker 1: needs to be overhauled. How long have we talked about
32:43
Speaker 1: that here on this podcast? A full-on audit of the
32:46
Speaker 1: Bureau of Prisons. They won't ever do it, but that's
32:50
Speaker 1: what we need. Authorities were considering various scenarios over the weekend,
32:57
Speaker 1: including whether Vicky White was overpowered and kidnapped by the
33:01
Speaker 1: 6'9 inmate or helped him escape through coercion or her
33:05
Speaker 1: own willingness, Singleton told CNN. It looks to me like
33:09
Speaker 1: they're in a rush to try and make it seem like...
33:12
Speaker 1: They had no part in this, meaning their employee didn't
33:15
Speaker 1: help facilitate this. She had to be overpowered. She was exemplary.
33:19
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean anything. Can you explain the inconsistencies in
33:23
Speaker 1: logistics and policy leading up to the point of him escaping?
33:27
Speaker 1: Because that's where we have to start. Again, if this
33:31
Speaker 1: was all in line and legit, and this was a
33:35
Speaker 1: legit scheduled transport, and then this guy went missing, I'd
33:39
Speaker 1: be much more... Vicky White's patrol vehicle was spotted around
33:43
Speaker 1: 11 a.m. Friday in a shopping center parking lot by
33:46
Speaker 1: someone after their lunch break, Singleton said. Authorities on Saturday
34:03
Speaker 1: searched video security footage in the area where the patrol
34:06
Speaker 1: vehicle was found, but did not turn up any evidence
34:10
Speaker 1: showing the two getting into another vehicle, the sheriff said.
34:14
Speaker 1: So this is a big mystery here. Where did they go?
34:17
Speaker 1: They didn't just disappear. They didn't get beamed up by Scotty.
34:20
Speaker 1: They had to go somewhere. So someone out there saw something.
34:24
Speaker 1: Someone out there knows where these two at least, you know, headed,
34:29
Speaker 1: which direction. His office is working on leads that may
34:37
Speaker 1: help investigators identify the vehicle the pair left in, Singleton
34:40
Speaker 1: said in Sunday. Singleton said Sunday, adding there is nothing
34:44
Speaker 1: confirmed at this time. So basically what they're saying is
34:48
Speaker 1: they don't know anything or they're just not going to
34:50
Speaker 1: confirm anything publicly that they do know. It's probably somewhere
34:54
Speaker 1: in the middle of that, right? They probably know a
34:56
Speaker 1: lot more than they're telling us, but certainly not enough
34:59
Speaker 1: to track these two down yet. We continue to view
35:05
Speaker 1: video footage for possible leads, but have recovered nothing that
35:08
Speaker 1: has had a significant impact on the investigation, said Singleton.
35:13
Speaker 1: Adding authorities don't know whether they are still in Alabama.
35:16
Speaker 1: That's a scary thought, honestly. This guy is a dangerous dude.
35:21
Speaker 1: Has nothing to lose at this point. He's out here
35:24
Speaker 1: having his best Bonnie and Clyde moment, it looks like.
35:27
Speaker 1: So if someone approaches these two, who knows what'll happen.
35:31
Speaker 1: And as far as Vicky White goes... You know, look,
35:35
Speaker 1: we don't know anything about her, really, besides what they're
35:37
Speaker 1: telling us. But how many times have we seen these
35:41
Speaker 1: kind of men with charisma be able to gaslight a
35:45
Speaker 1: woman that you would never expect them to be able
35:47
Speaker 1: to gaslight into doing something crazy? Inmate previously plotted to escape.
35:56
Speaker 1: In 2020, Casey White planned to escape the jail and
35:59
Speaker 1: take a hostage. But detention center employees caught him, Singleton said.
36:03
Speaker 1: The prison then established a policy mandating two sworn deputies
36:07
Speaker 1: accompany him at all times, including during transportation to the courthouse,
36:12
Speaker 1: the sheriff told CNN. So I don't care if you're
36:15
Speaker 1: the boss or if you're the president of the United States.
36:19
Speaker 1: If that's the policy, why is she breaking the policy,
36:22
Speaker 1: especially when it was created for this specific inmate? Casey
36:27
Speaker 1: White was serving 75 years for a series of crimes
36:30
Speaker 1: in 2015, including a home invasion, carjacking, and a police chase,
36:35
Speaker 1: according to the U.S. Marshal Service. He also faces two
36:38
Speaker 1: counts of capital murder for the stabbing death of 58-year-old
36:44
Speaker 1: Connie Ridgeway in 2015. The service said, hell of a
36:48
Speaker 1: guy here, you know, stabbing people to death, escaping prison,
36:52
Speaker 1: I'm going to take hostages, you know, the whole thing.
36:57
Speaker 1: He confessed to the killing in 2020 and then pleaded
36:59
Speaker 1: not guilty, according to Lauderdale County District Attorney Chris Connolly.
37:04
Speaker 1: He was being held while awaiting trial. Because Vicki White
37:08
Speaker 1: was armed with a 9mm handgun when the pair went missing,
37:11
Speaker 1: authorities assume Casey White is likely armed, Singleton said, adding
37:16
Speaker 1: it is unknown if there were other weapons in her
37:19
Speaker 1: patrol vehicle. How don't you know that? It's really bad work.
37:23
Speaker 1: This is bad police work, is really what it comes
37:25
Speaker 1: down to. And the corrections office down here in Alabama,
37:29
Speaker 1: there needs to be people who get fired. Sorry, that's
37:32
Speaker 1: just how it should work. Look, if you fuck up
37:34
Speaker 1: at your job, you get fired, right? Why is there
37:36
Speaker 1: no accountability when it comes to law enforcement, the bureaucracy,
37:42
Speaker 1: the Bureau of Prisons, and all of it? Never any
37:45
Speaker 1: accountability at all. Oh, sure, they'll shuffle around some of
37:48
Speaker 1: the wardens, like the dude who is in charge of MCC,
37:51
Speaker 1: but nobody gets fired. Who lost their pension over all
37:54
Speaker 1: of this? The corrections officer is likely in danger no
38:01
Speaker 1: matter the circumstances of their disappearance, Singleton said. Oh, I
38:05
Speaker 1: don't doubt that. Look, even if she is in on it,
38:10
Speaker 1: she's just a useful idiot to him. She's not the
38:13
Speaker 1: love of his life or someone he's, you know, going
38:16
Speaker 1: to care about and cherish. I highly doubt that. He
38:20
Speaker 1: was in jail for capital murder and he had nothing
38:23
Speaker 1: to lose, the sheriff said. Whether she assisted him or not,
38:26
Speaker 1: we don't know. And we won't address that until we
38:28
Speaker 1: have absolute proof that that's what happened. We are assuming
38:32
Speaker 1: at this point she was taken against her will unless
38:35
Speaker 1: we can absolutely prove otherwise. But regardless, even if she
38:39
Speaker 1: did assist him, we think she is in danger. So again,
38:43
Speaker 1: he doesn't even get into it, right? But you would
38:46
Speaker 1: think that all of the stuff that led up to
38:49
Speaker 1: this tells the story. I mean, look, I'm not a cop.
38:52
Speaker 1: I'm not an investigator. This guy is, but he certainly
38:55
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like he wants to deal with the facts
38:59
Speaker 1: that are right in front of his face. The Marshal
39:03
Speaker 1: Service joined the search for the inmate and officer and
39:05
Speaker 1: is offering a reward of up to $ 10, 000 for information
39:09
Speaker 1: that leads to the capture of Casey White and the
39:12
Speaker 1: location of Vicki White. So there you have it down
39:15
Speaker 1: in Alabama, folks. If you're out looking around today, working,
39:19
Speaker 1: keep your eyes peeled. This dude's 6'9, you can't miss him. $ 10, 000 reward.
39:26
Speaker 1: Veteran officer violated jail policy. Ah, and here we go.
39:30
Speaker 1: down to it don't we as the assistant director of
39:33
Speaker 1: corrections Vicki White was aware of the jail policy requiring
39:37
Speaker 1: Casey White to be escorted by two sworn deputies at
39:40
Speaker 1: all times Singleton said by removing him from the detention
39:43
Speaker 1: center on her own Vicki White broke protocol Yeah, no shit. Look,
39:49
Speaker 1: if this was legit, there would have been two guards
39:52
Speaker 1: and there would have been this transport on the schedule.
39:55
Speaker 1: None of that occurred. The officer had frequent access to
40:00
Speaker 1: people held in the detention center, including Casey White, Singleton said.
40:05
Speaker 1: Vicki White submitted her retirement papers last week, according to Singleton,
40:09
Speaker 1: who described her as an exemplary employee with an unblemished record.
40:14
Speaker 1: All of her co-workers, all the employees in the sheriff's office,
40:17
Speaker 1: the judges, all have the utmost respect for her, Singleton said. Well,
40:22
Speaker 1: that's fine and well, but as an outside observer who's
40:25
Speaker 1: not bought in one way or the other, very neutral
40:28
Speaker 1: on the whole topic at hand, I don't think she's
40:31
Speaker 1: that much of an exemplary employee at this point, okay?
40:35
Speaker 1: And no matter how good of an employee she was
40:37
Speaker 1: in the past, something must have happened in her life
40:40
Speaker 1: or whatever that launched her into orbit, and found her
40:44
Speaker 1: in the presence of sick fuckbag over here. Vicky White
40:49
Speaker 1: has been with the department for about two decades, Singleton said.
40:52
Speaker 1: She is a widow with no children, and her mother
40:56
Speaker 1: and two brothers live in Lauderdale County. So I'm not
41:00
Speaker 1: going to speculate on her private life, but a widow
41:03
Speaker 1: living alone, probably lonely lady, right? probably a lonely lady,
41:08
Speaker 1: and these predators, they recognize that, and they understand when
41:12
Speaker 1: people are vulnerable. And then that's when they go in
41:15
Speaker 1: for the proverbial kill, right? So, we'll have to see
41:19
Speaker 1: what the real story is here. I'm not saying 100%
41:22
Speaker 1: that she's in on it, but looking at all of
41:25
Speaker 1: the evidence... I would be remiss and BSing you folks
41:29
Speaker 1: if I didn't give you my true opinion on that.
41:32
Speaker 1: Because it certainly, to me, seems like, logistically, there's no
41:35
Speaker 1: way that this could have happened. Unless, of course, she
41:39
Speaker 1: helped him. So, we'll continue to follow this crazy story
41:42
Speaker 1: and see where it ends up. All right, everybody, that's
41:45
Speaker 1: going to do it for this one. If you'd like
41:47
Speaker 1: to contact me, you can do that at BobbyCapucci at ProtonMail.com.
41:51
Speaker 1: That's B-O-B-B-Y-C-A-P-U-C-C-I at ProtonMail.com. You can also find me on
41:59
Speaker 1: Twitter at B-O-B-B-Y underscore C-A-P-U-C-C-I. The link that we discussed
42:06
Speaker 1: can be found in the description box. What's up, everyone,
42:10
Speaker 1: and welcome back to the program. We have a quick
42:13
Speaker 1: update about the corrections officer and the inmate from Alabama
42:18
Speaker 1: that went missing. Well, it's no shock to me that
42:23
Speaker 1: the police have issued a warrant for Vicki White, the
42:26
Speaker 1: corrections officer, for helping this guy escape. Now, when you
42:31
Speaker 1: looked at all of the information we had, It didn't
42:35
Speaker 1: make any sense how this guy could have overpowered her
42:39
Speaker 1: and took her gun. Seemed to me, right from Jump Street,
42:43
Speaker 1: it was one of those Damora incidents where you had
42:46
Speaker 1: a corrections officer, for whatever reason, in this case, that
42:51
Speaker 1: case it was, oh, I was in love, for whatever
42:54
Speaker 1: reason decides it's a good idea to help this scumbag out, and, well,
42:59
Speaker 1: you get to where we are right now. The whole entire, oh,
43:03
Speaker 1: she might have been overpowered, or we don't know if
43:06
Speaker 1: she was in on it. I mean, come on, really?
43:08
Speaker 1: How long were you guys going to run with that narrative?
43:12
Speaker 1: Because it was obvious from Jump Street, looking at just
43:14
Speaker 1: what we knew, and you know they know way more,
43:17
Speaker 1: that this was an inside job. So let's get to
43:21
Speaker 1: this article from NBC News and get a quick update
43:25
Speaker 1: as to where we stand as far as this shit show.
43:31
Speaker 1: This article was authored by Alicia Fieldstat and Julianne McShane. Headline,
43:38
Speaker 1: Warren issued for corrections officer who disappeared with inmate on
43:42
Speaker 1: day she was set to retire. I mean, you put
43:46
Speaker 1: in 17 years as a corrections officer working in an
43:50
Speaker 1: absolutely deplorable situation. All of us are trying to avoid
43:54
Speaker 1: prison and jail and these people actually work there. So
43:57
Speaker 1: you put in your 17 years You're looking at a
44:00
Speaker 1: fantastic pension, I'm guessing. You have no kids. You're a widow.
44:06
Speaker 1: What are you doing, bro? What sort of, you know,
44:09
Speaker 1: brain injury are you suffering from that makes you think
44:12
Speaker 1: this is a good idea? And then to boot, it's
44:16
Speaker 1: not like this guy is, you know, wanted for bank
44:19
Speaker 1: fraud where they have 50 million stashed somewhere. This is
44:22
Speaker 1: a murderer, an absolutely cold-blooded, heartless killer. A warrant has
44:30
Speaker 1: been issued for an Alabama corrections officer who disappeared with
44:34
Speaker 1: an inmate Friday, the day she was set to retire,
44:37
Speaker 1: authorities said on Monday. The officer, Vicki White, is wanted
44:42
Speaker 1: on a charge of permitting or facilitating the escape of
44:46
Speaker 1: Capitol murder suspect Casey White from the Lauderdale County Jail,
44:51
Speaker 1: Sheriff Rick Singleton said during a news conference. Vicky and
44:55
Speaker 1: Casey White aren't related. Well, you would think they are.
44:58
Speaker 1: With a dumbass inbred decision like this, you would think
45:01
Speaker 1: they are. I mean, I guess I shouldn't be shocked
45:03
Speaker 1: this is happening in Alabama. No offense to those of
45:06
Speaker 1: you who live in Alabama, but I mean, come on, man.
45:11
Speaker 1: What is going on? We know she participated in his escape,
45:18
Speaker 1: Singleton said. Whether she did that willingly or was coerced
45:22
Speaker 1: or threatened, we're not really sure. But we know for
45:25
Speaker 1: sure she did participate. Well, in other news, water is wet,
45:30
Speaker 1: there's war in Ukraine, and I have a big mouth.
45:33
Speaker 1: Of course she took part. This guy didn't just organically
45:36
Speaker 1: figure this out. He didn't have magical powers where he
45:40
Speaker 1: could use telekinesis to contact the other jail and set
45:44
Speaker 1: up an appointment for himself. So it was relatively obvious
45:48
Speaker 1: from the beginning what was going on here. I was
45:51
Speaker 1: wondering how long it was going to take for the
45:54
Speaker 1: sheriff's department to come out and just own up to
45:56
Speaker 1: the fact that one of their own facilitated this. I mean, look,
46:01
Speaker 1: it's not you're all guilty of it, right? So why
46:05
Speaker 1: are you not being transparent as the sheriff? I mean,
46:08
Speaker 1: for them, they're thinking, well, it's going to make us
46:10
Speaker 1: all look bad, blah, blah, blah. But really, when you're
46:13
Speaker 1: not transparent, That's what makes people look bad, and that's
46:16
Speaker 1: what makes people not believe in these law enforcement agencies.
46:21
Speaker 1: Just be transparent. Even if it sucks for a little while, right,
46:25
Speaker 1: and you guys messed up, at least you were honest
46:27
Speaker 1: about it, and we can move forward having an honest
46:30
Speaker 1: conversation about how to fix it. Vicki White had talked
46:37
Speaker 1: about retiring for months, musing about all the time she'd
46:40
Speaker 1: spend on the beach, Singleton said. She had sold her house.
46:44
Speaker 1: And her last day of work as a Lauderdale County
46:47
Speaker 1: corrections officer was supposed to be Friday. All right. So
46:50
Speaker 1: it's significant. Some more detail. She sold her house. I
46:53
Speaker 1: wonder if it had closed. So I'm guessing she has
46:56
Speaker 1: some money put away. So they might have the ability
46:59
Speaker 1: to really, you know, get on the run. One of
47:03
Speaker 1: the chief concerns here is, even though she helped facilitate this,
47:07
Speaker 1: is he going to kill her and, you know, take
47:11
Speaker 1: her bank card or whatever? They have cash. I don't know.
47:14
Speaker 1: And go on the run by himself. One's better than two.
47:18
Speaker 1: And we know that this guy is not above murdering people. Now,
47:22
Speaker 1: I'm guessing all of the talk about retirement and all
47:26
Speaker 1: of that was the ruse leading up to this. This
47:29
Speaker 1: didn't happen overnight. They're engaged in some sort of relationship together,
47:34
Speaker 1: or this had built over months, or however long he's
47:37
Speaker 1: been there. Now, the sheriff says he might have coerced her. Well,
47:41
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. He might have moonlit her,
47:43
Speaker 1: charmed the pants off of her, but coerced? Yeah, look,
47:47
Speaker 1: this guy isn't Professor X, right? He's not jumping in
47:50
Speaker 1: someone's head and making them do what he wants them
47:53
Speaker 1: to do. She did this of her own volition, it
47:57
Speaker 1: looks like. This is not the Vicky White we know
48:01
Speaker 1: by any stretch of the imagination, Singleton said. Everybody thought
48:05
Speaker 1: she was going to retire. Nobody saw this coming, he added. Well,
48:09
Speaker 1: I wouldn't guess that anybody did. She probably kept it
48:12
Speaker 1: hidden pretty well, right? She doesn't want anyone to know.
48:15
Speaker 1: She's infatuated with old Scuzzball over here. She doesn't want
48:19
Speaker 1: anyone to know that they're, you know, creeping around behind
48:22
Speaker 1: the scenes. And remember, she's not just a... corrections officer,
48:27
Speaker 1: she was the assistant director, so she had ability to
48:30
Speaker 1: make moves other people didn't have. She knew where all
48:33
Speaker 1: the cameras were, so who knows what kind of relationship
48:36
Speaker 1: they were engaging in. Singleton said all possibilities regarding the
48:42
Speaker 1: relationship between Vicky and Casey White are being investigated, including
48:46
Speaker 1: a romantic one. Officials are reviewing jail video footage to
48:51
Speaker 1: see if Vicky White spent an inordinate amount of time
48:54
Speaker 1: near Casey White's cell. Well, if they didn't even know
48:58
Speaker 1: that she was transporting him, breaking protocol, how the hell
49:02
Speaker 1: are they going to track this down forensically? Forgive me
49:06
Speaker 1: if I have no faith in them being able to
49:07
Speaker 1: put the pieces together. Casey White, 38, was charged with
49:13
Speaker 1: two counts of capital murder in September 2020 and the
49:17
Speaker 1: stabbing of Connie Ridgeway, 58, and... he was already in
49:21
Speaker 1: jail in connection with a 2015 home invasion, carjacking, and
49:26
Speaker 1: police chase, according to the U.S. Marshal Service. Fantastic guy.
49:31
Speaker 1: Now this is the kind of guy you want to
49:33
Speaker 1: bring home to mom and dad. Hey mom, dad, check
49:37
Speaker 1: out my new guy, Mr. Fuckface. what is wrong with
49:41
Speaker 1: this lady? And I look again, I don't buy the
49:43
Speaker 1: coerced nonsense either. I wasn't there. I don't know for sure,
49:48
Speaker 1: but I'm not buying it. Okay. I would be very,
49:51
Speaker 1: very surprised if we find out that she was quote
49:54
Speaker 1: unquote coerced because a lot of logistics went into this. Now, again,
50:00
Speaker 1: you might say that he be Esther, maybe, but that's
50:04
Speaker 1: not an excuse. You got to be smarter than that.
50:07
Speaker 1: This is the only man in the world. You know
50:11
Speaker 1: what kind of people you're dealing with. You've been working
50:13
Speaker 1: in the prisons for 17 years. You know how they manipulate.
50:16
Speaker 1: You know how they run game and spit all kinds
50:18
Speaker 1: of bullshit. And you fell for it. So coerced? Not
50:22
Speaker 1: buying it. The U.S. Marshal Service is offering up to $ 10, 000
50:29
Speaker 1: for information leading to the capture of Vicki and Casey White.
50:33
Speaker 1: Authorities said Monday they had received several tips. Good. I
50:37
Speaker 1: hope they catch these two and they catch them soon.
50:39
Speaker 1: Vicki and Casey White left the detention center purportedly for
50:42
Speaker 1: a mental health evaluation at court. But investigators have since
50:46
Speaker 1: confirmed that such an evaluation was never even scheduled, Singleton
50:51
Speaker 1: said over the weekend. So right there, that just set
50:54
Speaker 1: off alarm bells when we heard that in the beginning.
50:57
Speaker 1: And as far as a mental health evaluation, maybe they
51:01
Speaker 1: had it the wrong way. Maybe Vicky is the one
51:03
Speaker 1: who needs the mental health evaluation because, again, you ain't
51:06
Speaker 1: thinking right if you're going on the run with this knucklehead.
51:11
Speaker 1: At the time of her departure, Vicky White told the
51:13
Speaker 1: booking officer that she would be going to a medical
51:16
Speaker 1: appointment after she dropped off Casey White because she wasn't
51:20
Speaker 1: feeling well. But she had no appointment scheduled, Singleton said.
51:24
Speaker 1: And that was to buy her more time, right? Couple
51:26
Speaker 1: hours at the doctor's, couple hours of the drive and
51:29
Speaker 1: the transport. Before you know it, they got a six,
51:31
Speaker 1: seven hour head start. You can get pretty far with
51:34
Speaker 1: a six or seven hour head start. She also transported
51:38
Speaker 1: the suspect by herself. A strict violation of the policy
51:42
Speaker 1: requiring two sworn deputies to transport a person under those charges,
51:47
Speaker 1: the sheriff said. Again, this is a gigantic dude. You're
51:51
Speaker 1: going to be transporting him yourself? Even as a man,
51:54
Speaker 1: the answer is no. Never mind this lady. Come on, man.
52:02
Speaker 1: The marked 2013 Ford Taurus patrol car they traveled in
52:06
Speaker 1: was later found at a shopping center, Singleton said. Surveillance
52:10
Speaker 1: video shows the two went straight to the shopping center
52:13
Speaker 1: and never stopped at the courthouse. Of course they didn't
52:15
Speaker 1: stop at the courthouse. That was never the plan. Officers
52:21
Speaker 1: realized the two were missing around 3.30 p.m. Friday when
52:25
Speaker 1: Vicki White's phone went straight to voicemail after repeated attempts
52:29
Speaker 1: to contact her, Singleton said, adding that it was then
52:32
Speaker 1: confirmed that Casey White was never returned to the detention
52:36
Speaker 1: center either. It took you guys that long to figure
52:39
Speaker 1: it out, huh? Again, I'm not trying to break chops
52:42
Speaker 1: over here for the corrections department and the police force,
52:46
Speaker 1: but man, it really seems like there is a lot
52:48
Speaker 1: of Keystone Copping going on. Casey White is 6'9, weighs
52:55
Speaker 1: about 260 pounds, and has brown hair and hazel eyes, U.S.
52:59
Speaker 1: Marshals said. On Sunday afternoon, the Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office
53:03
Speaker 1: released its most recent photo of White. He's a large individual,
53:07
Speaker 1: Singleton said. He will stand out. Yeah, there's no doubt.
53:11
Speaker 1: Pretty big guy. If you're in the area, I'm guessing
53:14
Speaker 1: there's not too many dudes that are 6'9, running around
53:17
Speaker 1: with a little blonde lady, so keep your eye out.
53:20
Speaker 1: but he warned the public not to approach Casey White.
53:23
Speaker 1: Even police who might encounter him should be on alert.
53:26
Speaker 1: So again, warning, call the cops. Don't try and, you know,
53:30
Speaker 1: go for the double leg takedown into Mount to perform
53:34
Speaker 1: some ground and pound. Probably not a good idea. Dude
53:36
Speaker 1: has a gun. I can't emphasize this enough to our
53:40
Speaker 1: brothers and sisters in blue. If you encounter this guy,
53:43
Speaker 1: you need to know he is dangerous. Don't take any chances,
53:47
Speaker 1: Singleton said. He has nothing to lose. He is extremely dangerous. Well,
53:53
Speaker 1: there you have it, folks. In today's episode of No Shit.
53:58
Speaker 1: I mean, anyone who was paying attention to the little
54:01
Speaker 1: details here knew what was going on. But I wanted
54:04
Speaker 1: to hop back on real quick, get this update into
54:06
Speaker 1: the catalog so we can keep it moving as new
54:10
Speaker 1: developments roll in. All right, everybody. I'll be back in
54:13
Speaker 1: a little bit with some more. If you'd like to
