About That Escape Story

 

So to tell this story....if you watch US news a good bit....you've seen the two here.

Casey (the guy) is a prisoner who had a 75-year sentence....then hinted he did a contract killing, to get transferred to a county jail, instead of state prison (in Alabama).

The gal...Vicki....was the deputy manager of the county jail (Florence, Ala)....in her mid-50s, who had some romance with Casey (mid-30s).  

Vicki decided to retire, and on that last day...helped Casey to escape.  That's the basic story.

So, here's the thing....both grew up with 5 miles of where I grew on the farm (rural Alabama).  Vicki would have been 6 years behind me in the same school.  

The claim on the murdered gal?  Well....she was the daughter of my school bus driver.

Lot of apprehension building that none of the confession was true on the contract killing....that it was just to get Casey out of the state prison area....to a easy unit to escape from.

Where the two are presently?  The van was found near Nashville.....so most folks think they left the state. Me?  I think they gave it to a 'friend' to drive north, and dump.....remaining in the Lauderdale county area.

A twist or two?  Casey's stepbrother disappeared five years ago.....just told the wife he was taking a walk in the woods.....never showed up again.  No one knows nothing.

Another twist?  These two (jail manager and the convicted guy) may have known each other for ten years.

Another twist?  Casey talking about this contract killing?  Well....virtually all of the inside info he fed the sheriff....was stuff that Vicki knew already.

Another twist?  Well.....Casey is 6'9" and Vicki is 5'4".

Another twist?  General talk that Casey has been on mood-control drugs since entering prison in 2016.  Some folks suggest that over the next month.....his stuff with rage will come back, unless he gets the prescription stuff.  

Yep, it'd make for a five-star script for a movie.
