The corrections officer and fugitive inmate were captured on May 9 at the motel, 10 days after they were reported missing by the Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office. On April 29, Vicky White said she was transporting Casey White to the court room for a mental health evaluation but the pair never returned.

Casey White, who was being held on capital murder charges, has no relation to Vicky White.

Vicky White died from a self-inflicted gun-shot wound during the manhunt to capture the pair.
