Alabama inmate Casey White, who escaped jail with help from alleged lover Vicky White, is sentenced to life


From WWW.FOXNEWS.COM

An Alabama felon who escaped prison last year with the help of a jail official who later shot herself in the head rather than face arrest, according to authorities, has been sentenced to life in prison.

Casey White, 39, addressed a Lauderdale County courtroom Thursday after pleading guilty to escape in exchange for a felony murder charge involving Vicky White’s death being dropped. He agreed to the maximum sentence of life without parole.

“I feel like the most hated man in the world. I loved Vicky and I wouldn’t drag her name through the mud for anyone in this courtroom,” White told the court, according to WHNT. “Vicky took me out because she said, ‘right was right. Wrong is wrong.’ First person to show me affection. First person to give me a hug in six years.”

“I apologize to her family because she said that’s the only thing she regretted… leaving her family,” he reportedly added.
