A NEW chilling twist has emerged in the case of Vicky White, who died by suicide after 11 days on the run with escaped prisoner Casey White.

The former prison guard, 56, was the mastermind behind the jailbreak to free her alleged prison lover, 38, according to Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton.

Singleton told NewsNation‘s Brian Entin that he doesn’t believe Casey is “smart enough to plan it all.”

He added that, despite what had been rumored, there was no trial run in the escape, as there was no evidence that Vicky took Casey out of the jail previously.

In an interview with CNN, Singleton said Vicky was “in a position” to arrange the escape, scheduling the van transport in the morning and making sure all the other armed deputies were out of the building.

“She knew that the booking officer wasn’t going to question her, the assistant director, when she told her that she was going to take him to court and drop him off with other employees,” Singleton told the network.

“She arranged, purchased the getaway car, sold her house, she got her hands on cash, bought clothes for him, you know, she just obviously put the plan together.”

Casey’s lawyer agreed with Singleton’s theory, telling CNN “there was no way that Casey planned this escape — it was too methodical, it was too planned out.”

Vicky and murder suspect Casey were captured on Monday in Evansville, Indiana.

The pair broke out of Lauderdale County jail in Alabama on April 29 and were found 11 days later after a manhunt.

During her final moments, Vicky appeared to blame her alleged lover for staying in a motel during her final moments.

Police recordings appear to reveal some of Vicky’s final words to Casey as cops were closing in on the couple’s vehicle.

She said: “Airbags are going off. Let’s get out and run.”

Vicky then ranted: “You had to stay in some f**king motel.”

It’s unknown who called 911 or why the call was made in the first place.

Vicky died hours later in hospital and her body has since been returned to Alabama.

Singleton revealed that wigs, weapons including an AR-15 rifle, a 9mm handgun and $29,000 worth of cash had also been found.

Vicky was facing up to 10 years behind bars for helping Casey.

Cops hoped Vicky would survive her injuries as Singleton said she had “answers to give.”

He said: “I had every bit of trust in Vicky White. She had been an exemplary employee.

“And what in the world provoked her, or prompted her, to pull something like this, I don’t know. I don’t know if we’ll ever know.”

Vicky was about to be awarded the employee of the year award for the fifth time.
