Casey White: Chilling footage of Alabama inmate escaping prison leaves ex-girlfriend terrified
Casey White, an inmate facing murder charges, went missing from the Lauderdale County Jail with Vicky White, Assistant Director of Corrections, on April 29. An unidentified former girlfriend of Casey says that she is "freaking out" since she found out that he is on the loose. The 38-year-old inmate, who was charged with two counts of capital murder in September 2020, had reportedly promised to kill her.
Casey broke into the woman's Limestone County home in 2015, but she was able to get away. The woman says she is in hiding with her family right now and is terrified that he might make a move and follow through on his threats. "If she is still alive, (she needs to) get the hell out. Run. Run as far as you can, and turn yourself in, and contact somebody. Like, do the right thing before you lose your life or somebody else does," the woman told Waay 31 about the message she has for Vicky.

"They’ve (local police) promised to step up patrols, but we are freaking out. We don't know if he is going to show up and take us out like he tried to do before. I thought I would never have to worry about him ever again. Casey White is very dangerous to everybody that is around him. I can't believe it, I just I cannot believe it," she added.
Due to the woman's testimony, Casey was convicted in 2016 on charges of attempted murder, burglary, robbery, kidnapping, animal cruelty, and more. He was sentenced to 75 years in prison. "He stated that he wanted to kill her and have the police kill him. His only regret was that neither was successful. He stated that if he was released he would kill the victim," states a police report obtained by Fox News.

"This is the most current photo of inmate Casey White. We continue to work with state and federal agencies in following leads and investigating the escape. At this time there is no other significant updated information to pass along. A press conference will be held tomorrow morning at 10:30 am," reads a Facebook post from Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office.
Footage released by the authorities shows Vicky entering the building and returning with a handcuffed Casey wearing an orange jumpsuit. The corrections officer then let him into the back of the car, got into the driver's seat, and took off. The two are reported to have then ditched the car in a shopping center parking lot and vanished.
