Casey Cole White, a murder suspect who escaped from Alabama jail on Friday morning with the alleged help of a prison official, warned cops in 2015 that he would kill his ex-girlfriend if possible, according to court documents.
“He said he wanted to kill her and get the police to kill him,” a police report from December of that year said. “His only regret was that neither was successful. He said that if he was released, he would kill the victim.”
White was later convicted of attempted murder, kidnapping and other charges of armed invasion of the home and a crime in which he shot his ex, stole a jeep, shot a pet and detained three people.

Missing Alabama Prison Officer SOLD HOME, EXPECTED TO RETIREMENT BEFORE MUSIC SUSPECT AVOIDES
He broke into a house in Athens armed with two pistols. Inside, he met two men and ordered them to fall to the ground at gunpoint, then turned his attention to his ex-girlfriend, who fled amid a volley of bullets.
Respondents found bullet holes in the wall and two children hiding in the basement, as well as a dog shot in the hallway.
Just two months earlier, police said he had also killed Connie Ridgeway, a 59-year-old woman White had attacked at her home.
“He’s definitely a monster,” Ridgeway’s son Austin Williams told Fox News Digital Monday.

ARREST WAS RELEASED FOR ARREST FOR MISSING OFFICER FROM ALABAMA CORRECTIONAL CORRECTIONS IN THE ESCAPE OF MUSIC SUSPECT
Williams said his family hoped law enforcement would make a quick arrest.
“We need to get this man back behind bars,” he said, noting that a 6-foot-9-foot-tall man brutally attacked his young mother with a knife.
Authorities say White was already serving a 75-year sentence for the armed invasion of the home when he admitted to killing Ridgeway in 2020. The case was pending at the time of his escape.
He faces the maximum penalty of death if convicted of Ridgeway’s death.

White escaped on Friday morning, allegedly with the help of the assistant director of the Lauderdale County Correctional Facility, Vicki White. Authorities said the two were not connected.
But they are believed to have gone together in a vehicle that investigators found abandoned in a parking lot in Lauderdale County, Alabama.
Vicky White was expected to retire after her last shift on Friday, and Sheriff Rick Singleton said Monday that she had told her colleagues she had been planning to move to the beach for months.
PRISONER ALABAMA OFFICER DISAPPEARS AFTER EXPECTED APPEARANCE
Colleagues in the county described her as sweet, polite and quiet, saying her alleged connection to the prisoner’s escape was both out of character and a shock.
She allegedly told colleagues she would take the prisoner to the district court for evaluation and then planned to visit the doctor’s office, saying she was not feeling well. According to the sheriff, there was no planned assessment and it is alleged that she violated the protocol by leaving with the prisoner without the company of additional armed deputies.
Authorities announced an order for Vicki White on Monday, although the sheriff said her alleged help may have been forced.
“Doing it would be so uncharacteristic of Vicki White that we all know,” he said.
