A prison guard ran off with a murder suspect, then her death deepened the mystery
Warning, this story has references to suicide. Vicky White had talked for months about retiring, according to her boss, the sheriff. Her 16-year career at an Alabama county jail was supposed to end with one last accolade: Her colleagues had voted her corrections employee of the year. Then, on her final day last month, White ran off with a man awaiting trial on murder charges . Authorities soon surmised that 56-year-old Vicky White and 38-year-old Casey White were not related but had a “jailhouse romance”. Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton said inmates recounted favouritism and “extra food” on Casey White's trays. “I've learned that you just don't know people sometimes,” Singleton said at a news conference on Monday, as an 11-day search came to an end with a car crash, Casey White's capture and Vicky White's death, which was eventually ruled a suicide.

Brendon McCullum likely to relax midnight curfew in first decision as England Test head coach
Brendon McCullum is likely to make relaxing England's midnight team curfew one of his first big decisions after signing a four-year £2million contract as the team's new Test head coach. It is understood Ben Stokes is keen for the curfew to be dropped and he is unlikely to meet opposition from McCullum, who will want to build a good working relationship with his captain from day one as they embark on a partnership that could include two Ashes series over the length of his deal. The midnight curfew has been in place since 2017 when it was imposed by then team director Sir Andrew Strauss after a string of late-night drinking sessions became public. He acted after Jonny Bairstow’s playful headbutt in a Perth nightclub emerged during the first Ashes Test of the 2017-18 tour and followed on from Stokes’s arrest in Bristol, which happened in the early hours of the morning after a one-day international against West Indies. The curfew was irrelevant during the pandemic because players … [Read more...] about Brendon McCullum likely to relax midnight curfew in first decision as England Test head coach
