Top legal and true crime network Law&Crime announces the successful premiere of its newest original premium documentary, “Jailbreak: Love on the Run,” after its recent climb to the #1 watched movie on Netflix in the U.S. and U.K. today.
“Jailbreak: Love on the Run” follows the baffling and gut-wrenching story of Vicky White, a respected and lauded correctional officer who abandons her impending retirement in favor of running off with 38-year-old Casey White, a convicted murderer serving a 75-year prison sentence for a violent crime spree involving home invasion, kidnapping and the attempted murder of a young woman.
The affair between Vicky and Casey White, which started when she met him behind bars, culminates in an illegally facilitated break from prison and subsequent 11-day fatal manhunt.
On the one hand, the documentary has been praised for depicting a shocking portrait of a respectable woman who throws it all away — including her own life — for a real-life romance novel. On the other, it tells the story of a tight-knit community in Alabama where everyone suffers the ramifications of the couple’s inexplicable choice. The documentary includes some of the more than 1,000 exclusive jailhouse calls and handwritten letters between Casey and Vicky White, giving viewers an up-close glimpse of the unlikely relationship.
“Initially, I couldn’t understand how such a well-liked, stellar employee would throw everything away for a criminal,” said Rachel Stockman, president of Law&Crime and an executive producer on the Netflix documentary. “But by the end of production, I understood — and it was both heartbreaking and tragic.”
The documentary, which premiered on Sept. 25, was executive produced by Law&Crime founder Dan Abrams, Melody Shafir, Rachel Stockman, Lana Wilson and Angie Dorr and produced by William Green and Aaron Ginsburg.
