Escaped murder suspect may be 'extremely violent' without medication: Sheriff

Murder suspect Casey White, 38, and Lauderdale County Assistant Director of Corrections Vicky White, 56, have been missing since April 29.

Authorities are concerned that escaped Florence, Alabama, murder suspect Casey White could be "extremely violent" without his medication, Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton told ABC News on Monday.

The sheriff did not provide details as to what the medication is or what Casey White's being treated for, but said the concern is due to the escapee likely not having the medication with him.

Casey White, 38, fled the Lauderdale County jail with Lauderdale County Assistant Director of Corrections Vicky White, 56, on April 29. The inmate and employee are not related.

Casey White was facing two counts of capital murder for allegedly stabbing a woman to death in 2015, according to the U.S. Marshals Service.
