Escape

Deputies were transporting the inmate on the 5 freeway when he broke free from the patrol car

Casey White and Vicky White may have planned his escape over the phone, but authorities must listen to each call before making a determination

The men would be in their 90s if they're still alive

The agency said if it must transport an inmate for an emergency medical appointment or for release, it will have more security

Officials accused a security guard of helping them escape and driving them off the premises

Jayme Lopez escaped officers, acquired a firearm and got into a shootout with police at an apartment complex

Vicky White previously left the jail with Casey White in what investigators believe was a dry run for the escape

Officials said the two were carrying $29,000 in cash, four handguns and an AR-15 rifle

The pair were captured after U.S. Marshals pursued their vehicle and crashed into it; CO Vicky White died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound

The vehicle was found in an impound lot in Tennessee, where it sat for nearly a week before authorities realized they had it

"There is no question that it took some planning and some coordinating," said Sheriff Rick Singleton

Sheriff Rick Singleton said he is exploring the possibility of a romantic relationship between the inmate-officer pair that went missing last week

“Casey White is believed to be a serious threat to the corrections officer and the public.”
