Day 7: U.S. Marshals Continue to
Pursue Leads in Hunt for Alabama Fugitives Reward up to $10,000 for escapee wanted for Capital Murder, $5,000 for Correctional Officer who helped him |
Birmingham,
AL – The U.S. Marshals Service is offering up to
$10,000 for information leading to the
capture of an escaped inmate from Lauderdale County Jail and up to
$5,000 for the correctional officer
who authorities believe helped him escape April 29 from Lauderdale
County. Investigators have learned that during
pre-sentence reporting in 2015 he made threats against his ex-girlfriend
and her sister, warning that if he ever got out, he would kill them and
that he wanted police to kill him. USMS and local law enforcement
authorities have been in contact with his potential targets to advise
them of the threats and the escape and have taken appropriate protective
actions. Investigators with Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office have also
recently learned through inmate interviews that the jail official and
the inmate had developed a “special” relationship. The subjects should be considered dangerous and may be armed with an AR-15 rifle, handguns and a shotgun. These are actual photos of the vehicle they are believed to be in.
Law enforcement-sensitive information about the
vehicle was accidentally released on social media May 3, which led some
internet sleuths to the Florence car dealer who sold the vehicle to
Vicky White. Some Facebook users have leveled accusations of wrongdoing
against the owners of that dealership. The U.S. Marshals would like to
assure everyone that the owners have been very helpful in this
investigation, and that no one at the dealership is suspected of helping
the pair avoid law enforcement. He has numerous tattoos (pictured below), including some affiliated with the Alabama-based white supremacist prison gang Southern Brotherhood. Casey White stands 6 feet 9 inches and weighs approximately 330 pounds. He has brown hair and hazel eyes. He should be considered armed and extremely dangerous. Vicky White is 5 feet 5 inches and weighs approximately 145 pounds. She has blond hair and brown eyes and reportedly has a waddling gait. Vicky White is 5 feet 5 inches and weighs approximately 145 pounds. She has blond hair (but may have tinted it a darker shade) and brown eyes and reportedly has a waddling gait. The USMS has put together two example images to
identify the height differentiation between Casey White and Vicky White
in relation to each other as well as the vehicle they are believed to be
driving. Anyone with information on the
Whites’ location is urged to contact urged to contact law enforcement.
