Fuga de prisión: El amor anda suelto

Vicky was certainly experienced enough in her position- having worked there for over seventeen years- portraying her as some simpleton that was merely looking for love and fell for the wrong guy is disingenuous, at best. There's a lot of excusing of stupidity here, and if the roles were reversed i sincerely doubt we would see a male guard portrayed so sympathetically or as an innocent who was merely led astray by a predator. Casey is definitely preying on her vulnerability, but as an employee surrounded by men every second of her working day (50-60 hours her WEEK) one would think the need for fortifications and reinforcements in place to ensure this was not even a possibility. There should never be any vulnerability to exploit, and one should never be acting as some sort of 'surrogate' of a mother or worse, a lover, for inmates with nothing to lose and everything to gain by exploiting these employees. I understand sympathy, or even empathy, but that's what those incarcerated are looking for- a way in. Even if there isn't ill-intent on behalf of the inmate, you're becoming a loophole for them. Just as the inmate interviewed talked about trying to ferret out those who threatened to out the affair, he expressed anger over her not being able to be his 'mommy figure'. That is absolutely not her job, and that should never be something expressed to these inmates. That she was constantly going out of her way for her favorite inmates or that of her 'boyfriend' says everything wrong with this entire debacle.

One has to wonder in what type insanity would you ever have an opposite sex employee that oversees so much of the daily goings on? The entire reason she was able to escape the view of her coworkers and/or superiors is because she was responsible for so much of every facet of the facility. Even if opposing sexes are needed, more oversight is absolutely necessary and should be mandatory; the checks and balances didn't even exist here and nobody could see past their own duties to even consider this a vague possibility. There's absolutely no way Vicky wasn't just as culpable, and maybe even more so. Someone has to be the adult in the room or we're looking at mass chaos of the highest order.

It wasn't an unbearable watch, but there were portions far too incredulous to digest. Far too many people placed far too much confidence in someone who was, what seems to be, merely abflattering compliment away from an incredibly felonious act with zero regard for the path of wreckage left in her wake.

Not an awful documentary but strangely portrays the situation as a Romeo and Juliet meets Bonnie and Clyde love story.

I don't doubt that Vicky White cared deeply for Casey but I can't believe Casey reciprocated her feelings.

Casey White is a manipulator. He found a weakness in Vicky that he used in an attempt to get him out spending the rest of his life in prison. People like him are skilled in finding the most vunerable and know how to play the game.

I think it is a tragedy that Vicky's legacy as a steller employee was completely ruined the instant she gave in to her emotions. She simply should've known better.

Decent documentary.

Staff at a corrections facility are shocked to learn that their colleague, Vicky White, a stalwart of the facility has fallen in love with an inmate, Casey White, and helped him to escape.

What an absolutely crazy story, talk about an unexpected love story. It's a very well made, intriguing storyline, well made, interesting and surprising, with some fascinating interviews.

I had a feeling it would have a tragic ending, and it really does, what a way for this story to end, a tragedy.

It doesn't seem as though Casey was a particularly good guy, he wouldn't have ended up where he did I guess, but what on Earth was Vicky thinking, what a crazy risk to take. One thing that seems obvious, they fell for eachother.

One question I came away with, is nobody monitoring those phone calls inside the prison? Surely someone would have clocked the sheer volume of calls?

7/10.

I dont care about the guy, no. He deserved to be in there. I cared only about Vicky, she worked tirelessly in a prison with stinky and violent men. Great employees. I get why she broke free and gambled on a guy to help her be wild and free and on the run for about a week. She needed someone who spent time with her, it should of been a friend who could help her retire and meet someone but I think she was depressed and workaholic with constantly needing to answer calls about work.

No, I don't think she was innocent in not knowing what she was doing or whatever these reviews are saying about innocent or inexperience.

But was she overworked by this prison system, and probably underpaid and her mental state took a hit and it made her develop a voice in the back of her head to take a life ruining risk and she was tired of everything and caring.

I gave the movie 6 stars because of its investigation into events, the interviews with people related to it, and the integration of film from the events themselves. As far as the "story" goes, there was little if anything good I could say about it. Painting Ms. White as a "victim of love" took any credibility from the documentary itself. Painting Mr, White, a manipulative criminal as someone who may have sincerely "loved" Ms. White was equally ridiculous. In short, these two were a criminal who was completely amoral and lacking any conscience, and someone so wrapped up in herself she violated the law and endangered society by assisting a monster escape back into society.

The only regret is that only one of them died.
