It tells the story of Jailer Vicky White and murder suspect Casey White's escape from an Alabama jail and their capture in Evansville

A documentary about the 2022 nationwide manhunt that ended in Evansville is set to stream next week on Netflix. WNIN’s John Gibson has details:

It’s called “Jailbreak: Love on the Run” and it’s based on the story of Alabama jailer Vicky White, who helped convicted felon Casey White escape from jail.

The two hit the road together, evaded police, and eventually moved into a motel on Highway 41 in Evansville -- a short distance from the Vanderburgh County jail.

After about a week of lying low, authorities captured Casey White during a brief car chase. Vicky White shot herself in the car and later died at an Evansville hospital.

The 90-minute documentary features interviews with authorities and friends of Vicky White:
