Escaped Alabama murder suspect Casey Cole White had a “special relationship” with the Lauderdale County assistant director of corrections, Vicky White, according to the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office in a statement Tuesday.
“That relationship has been confirmed through our investigation with independent sources and means,” the department said in a statement. The sheriff’s office did not elaborate.
Cole White is believed to be traveling with Vicky White, and the two are not related, sheriff’s officials said. On Monday, a felony arrest warrant was issued for Vicky White after the two went missing on Friday, April 29.
Authorities believe the pair may be in a gold or copper-colored 2007 Ford Edge with damage to the rear bumper, officials told WAFF.
