Exemplary says who? The other corrupt guards? Who do you think brings in all the drugs and contraband? Who do you think allows others to bring it in??? Effing guards, that's who.

The fact that she willingly took on the responsibility of long-term care for her ex, kind of tells you about her personality. It's like she had an overwhelming need to be wanted and needed, and that translated into being loved in her mind. If she'd never met Casey, and Mike introduced her to us, we'd likely be amazed at how selfless and full of love she was. The high likelihood that she was manipulated, and her personality lent itself to being manipulated, doesn't excuse her crimes, but it does help explain them. I hope her family and friends can remember the person she used to be, rather than the one on the news.

Its a Common Move by Criminals with a lot of time or potentially life to seduce a female guard. Shes lucky he didnt kill her right away. I guess he actually did love her. Basically she needed to set her lover free or he was in jail the rest of his life. The plan to go to the smaller city / town and stay in the hotel was probably the worse part of the plan. Should have gone to a bigger city where they could blend in better. it was too sloppy they didnt have any type of long term plan.

Spot on. I work in a men's prison and over the years several of my female colleagues have been sacked for shacking up with inmates. Some of these women were married with children at the time and some willingly left their families to pursue relationships with these inmates. These are women who are lonely or depressed - unhappy somehow with their home lives - and inmates pick up on this sort of thing, and will prey on their vulnerabilities to get what they want. Of all these women (I can think of maybe six or seven since I started here eight years ago), I think maybe two are still in a relationship with the inmate - one of those women is now pregnant and the other still visits the inmate (who is serving a long sentence) in his current facility. This whole catastrophe could have been avoided though, if proper escorting procedures were followed. One officer should NEVER be out in public alone with an inmate. Ever. Even if you're the boss.

I’m a retired Probation Officer and have worked in many prisons throughout Alaska. As a Field PO in Barrow (Utqiagvik) in 2013 I worked alongside an ADA named Bryan Sullivan, a former AF JAG Officer, an amazingly smart, handsome, good person, recently divorced and new to the village. I warned him many times not to date local women, especially those whose former spouses were in legal trouble. Ignoring such advice from me and many others, he did, and was murdered by the ex-spouse. Tragic case, in a forbidding and unforgiving place where western justice often still clashes violently with the local native culture and isolation. I’d love if you looked into this case if you haven’t already. You do true justice to the victims and tell your stories with both respect and well placed humor.

Every three days... For three years.

It is interesting how Casey goes from looking like he's sixty in one image to looking like his actual age in another and then he looks ten years older in the next. I do feel a certain level of sympathy for Vicky, though that sympathy is based more on assumption than evidence. She was still the one who acted, though, the one who chose to let a dangerous murderer out into the free world, so that curbs the sympathy a lot.

Been watching your videos for a while & so naturally I was excited to see you cover this story as it is set in my hometown. FYI the Lauderdale Co jail has or has had so many issues I.e. CO to inmate ratio, inmates being violent towards CO’s, the lack of experience for the CO’s, Supervisors abusing their authority & having CO’s wrongfully fired due to personal vendettas. Not to mention the incredibly out of shape CO’s. I’m very disappointed in Sheriff Singleton & don’t expect him to he re-elected. This experience has been very embarrassing for the county to say the least. Also, the jail is literally maybe 3/4 of a mile away from the courthouse

Nice Mike, i read this in the papers and im from the Netherlands. Can you imagine the news went overseas. We only heard of the escape tho. Im glad i now know what happend. Thanks Mike for the great content.

16 years I worked as a Corrections Officer. Those of us on the front lines thought that women should not work at a men's prison and men shouldn't work at a women's prison for exactly this reason. I'm not saying it would never happen but the chances are a heck of a lot lower. However most female Corrections Officers conduct themselves in a very professional way. There was one I worked with (only once) who fought to be let working the dorms at the maximum security prison. I never saw this but the control room officer (who had worked with her multiple times) told me she would disappear for long periods of time and when she reappeared, she was all disheveled and smelled like she had been having sex. The control room officer watched our backs. I don't remember if she was reported or not, but she was still there when I transferred to a detention center.

@Malcolm Caden I never worked at a private prison although we do have them her in Georgia, USA. But it amazes me how much contraband workers (Corrections Officers, Counselors, Office Workers, etc.) would bring into the prison. I was working a dorm one night and a prisoner told me that he could get anything he wanted brought into the prison for him within 48 hours. He proved it. I forget what it was. This was around 1992 or 93. It wasn't something dangerous but definitely something they did not sell at the inmate store. It was something small. Nothing to do a write up about. I was still new so I told my Sergeant and Lieutenant (shift commander) about it when they came around that night. They took the item and I never heard anything else about it.

Thanks Mike for getting on this story so quickly. Such a sad ending. I actually saw this very seduction in a level 5 prison I worked in. A female corrections officer had an affair with a male inmate. The inmate's cell buddy blackmailed her that if she didn't have sex with him too, he would expose her. She got caught and was escorted in handcuffs off the premises. Both men still served out their original prison time. She was the only loser in that case.

That car was popping right along when they lost control, hit the ditch hard enough to deploy airbags. Police clearly said there was a gun in Vicki's hand. I've done my fair share of accident reconstruction & it's highly unlikely she would have been able to hold onto that gun during everything!

The coroner confirmed it was suicide. She had residue from firing the gun on her right hand and she was in the passenger seat. If you watch the body cam videos of the cops at the scene, it takes them a few minutes to get the gun out of her hand after she shot herself, and then to pull her out of the crashed Cadillac. They had to open the sun roof to get to her. You can hear them say she's still breathing, but she's likely doing agonal breathing at that point. (Death rattle). I think she chose to kill herself so she wouldn't have to face up to what she did. I think she was just done with life. I feel sorry for her mom and all of her loved ones who were left behind.

I knew this case wouldn't end well from the very beginning. Another great video from my favorite true crime KZread creator. You do you, Mike. Do whatever you think is necessary for your channel.

Crazy case. We always wonder why someone in such a position would do something like this. Well, I´ve experienced something similar, not this spectacular and not so tragic, but still disturbing. I am a forensic psychologist working in prison. Some years back, a female co-worker of mine had an affair with one of my patients/inmates. No one (myself included) knew until a cell phone was found outside the inmates cell window, on which they found explicit chat data and photos. She was immediatly sacked, but faced no further consequences. He was moved to another department. I could of course analyse why she did it, but still, it is hard to grasp why someone would jeopardise their future and career like this into thin air. Mind blowing. Thanks for covering this one :)

I’ll summarize it: people get conned, fall in love. The end.

I think a lot of it has to do with manipulation and maybe her own psychology. I don't know her, so a diagnosis is unethical. I do know that she had a lot of negative changes recently, so maybe they were a factor. It does remind me of my own experience with codependency and trying to see good in everyone. Interestingly, she was in the prison system, which teaches you about this. I studied forensics and am going back to study psychology soon.

I will say it's surprising that if she knew his history, she still fell for his manipulation.

She was what, 18 years older than him? I'd be flattered to have a much younger guy hit on me, especially coming out of a relationship and feeling lonely. Doesn't mean I'd act on it, but can't guarantee that either.

I LOVE how Mike has said "all the hits, all the good ones" in the last 3 videos. That's one of the best Always Sunny moments, and I love how much of a fan he is.

I had been following this case on the news, as I'm from Indiana, and went to USI, which is in Evansville. I was so shocked at what was going on, I messaged Mike on IG asking him to look into this case, because I really wanted all the juicy details. I don't if i had anything to do with it, or because it had so much traction on the news, but it makes me super happy to see that a lot of other people wanted him to cover this as well. Peace and love. ✌️+❤

THIS GUY?!?!?! … REALLY GIRL?! 🤦🏽‍♀️.. & stellar footage!! Never seen any of the 911 call before! Great job , Mike !!

Mikey Boy back to the grind! Cheers 🍻 to us!

Looks like he’s a master manipulator, they’re reinvestigating his ex girlfriend’s death too, she also killed herself with a gunshot to the chest…..🤔

Mike just makes me 😁 smile Everytime I watch him.

I watch a LOT of true crime KZreadrs its what I watch/listen to while I'm working and you are my absolute favorite. I love your Witty remarks and the way you tell it. Please don't ever stop doing this. It will ruin my day if you do! Thanks so much for all you do!

Hope the trip was great. Once again, I watched this story as it happened, in bits and blurbs, but the way Mike pulls it together in a succinct and interesting way is refreshing and informative. Thanks, Mike! Glad you're safely home.

Here here 🥂 i totally agree 👍🏻

Im from the area where this case started. Most of the information you shared Mike, I had not heard from our local news networks. This was so out of chatacter for Vicky that it was first assumed that she had been kidnapped by Casey. As time went by, it was determined she was involved in his escape. Local law enforcement took a lot of ridicule for this debacle. Im sorry it ended with Vicky taking her life. She isn't the first woman to be conned into something and she won't be the last. RIP Vicky.

The 911 call, onstar, sounds like she let's out a surprised yelp when the gun goes off. Doesn't sound like intentional suicide at all to me, more like accidental discharge, while preparing to run and shoot maybe

@@missmiss5051 I agree. It absolutely sounded like a surprise gasp. They were quick to rule it a suicide on scene because she had the gun in her hand. Most suicides result in the gun being ejected from the hand.

Becareful bro with those ears he can probably hear this shit from prison 😂

Hey Mike, I've been so busy lately that I've not been able to watch your videos. Now I have some free time, and I'm excited that I have TWO WHOLE MONTHS' WORTH of That Chapter videos to catch up with. You have no idea how much I've missed your humour and quality content.
