Jailbreak: Love on the Run

So, I watched "Jailbreak Love on the Run" and, let me tell you, I'm swimming against the tide here. Vicky? Not exactly a damsel in distress. She knew the ropes and was well aware of the rules she was flouting, which could have landed her in hot water. And Casey? He wasn't just along for the ride. The documentary, in my opinion, didn't lay all the cards on the table. If they had been keeping an eye on things like they should have, this whole caper would have been shut down early. And seriously, who's ever heard of anyone being allowed out of uniform? No way.

Now, let's dive into the behind-the-scenes antics. This could have been stopped so early if people were actually doing their jobs. Red flags were popping up like crazy, and yet, nothing. The documentary made it clear there were some serious management issues. We didn't hear from many perspectives, which makes me wonder if some people kept quiet out of fear of retaliation. Wouldn't surprise me one bit.

So, in conclusion, this documentary needed more expansion and less "let's gloss over the juicy bits."

Staff at a corrections facility are shocked to learn that their colleague, Vicky White, a stalwart of the facility has fallen in love with an inmate, Casey White, and helped him to escape.

What an absolutely crazy story, talk about an unexpected love story. It's a very well made, intriguing storyline, well made, interesting and surprising, with some fascinating interviews.

I had a feeling it would have a tragic ending, and it really does, what a way for this story to end, a tragedy.

It doesn't seem as though Casey was a particularly good guy, he wouldn't have ended up where he did I guess, but what on Earth was Vicky thinking, what a crazy risk to take. One thing that seems obvious, they fell for eachother.

One question I came away with, is nobody monitoring those phone calls inside the prison? Surely someone would have clocked the sheer volume of calls?

7/10.

I would not believe that this could actually happen in the prison system but here you have it. Vicky White, who has a senior position at the jail, falls in love with Casey White, a dangerous offender who is looking at 75 years imprisonment and has now confessed to another murder.

This woman is obviously lonely and vulnerable as she gets taken in by her prisoner because he tells her that she has a nice butt. From there, they begin an intimate relationship in the prison; it's astounding to me that they are never caught. It seems like the other prisoners in this overcrowded cell are aware of what's going on, but the staff are completely ignorant to it.

This love she has for her Casey will cost her dearly.

I'm perplexed as to why women guards are even in the male prison system. It does seem dangerous, especially if some of the prisoners are violent and require maximum security.

Interesting story that almost seems to outrageous to be true and I'm sorry that the ending turned out the way it did. Glad that Netflix didn't drag this out and make it into a limited series.

I recommend.

Well no pun intended - you know the saying about who falls in love - or is it the song? I know Elvis sang about it. But while you could add Jailhouse Rock (to round up what the documentary also entails), let's dive into what this is about - although I reckon I made it clear.

So depending on your sensibilities and what you personally believe (morals may have to take a backseat) ... we get to see an unusual love story. I am not sure what the whole bad boy charm is though one could argue it may not apply 100% in this case. Well some women seem to want "rescue" men ... they see the good in them. Anyway this is another case of that, but since its a documentary you get to learn the "real" persons behind it all ... well done, researched and edited.

On April 29, 2022, Vicky took Casey out of his cell to transport him to the nearby courthouse. Or, rather, that's what she claimed she was doing; instead, she and Casey got into her vehicle and vanished. By the time her fellow corrections officers realized what was going on, the duo was long gone. This was stunning to everyone, including Lauderdale County Sheriff's Office investigator Sgt. Matt Burbank, who had known Vicky for years and, like everyone else, immediately feared she might be in danger. However, upon finding her abandoned car and searching her home, he quickly deduced that she wasn't a victim but an accomplice. Before long, Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton was appearing on television to spread the word about this crime to the public, all as a U. S. Marshals team led by commander Chad Hunt initiated an urgent manhunt.
