Law enforcement officials said that an Alabama jail inmate and a county corrections officer who helped him escape were taken into custody in Indiana on Monday.

Lauderdale Sheriff Rick Singleton said during a Monday evening press conference that the two inmates and the correction officer were captured after a chase with the U.S. marshals.
The pursuit began after law enforcement spotted them at a hotel and ended with the pair crashing their pickup truck, according to the U.S. marshals service.
After receiving a tip, law enforcement tracked the two down to a hotel in Evansville.
The pair vanished from Lauderdale County jail on April 29 after White arrived to transport White who is facing murder charges. A multi-state search for a pair that had been missing since 2020 was launched after White traded her patrol car for a Ford at a shopping center in Alabama.
If we have to put other inmates on the floor, he will be in his own cell. If he wants to file a lawsuit against me for violating his civil rights, he will stay in handcuffs and shackles.
The reward for information leading to the capture of Whites was $25,000. The state of Alabama and the U.S. marshals service offered different amounts of money.
