Did this end as badly as possible?

The nationwide search for a former Alabama corrections officer and the inmate she disappeared with ended yesterday when Vicky White died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, officials said. Vicky White, 56, and Casey White, 38, were captured in Evansville, Indiana, following a car chase with authorities who tracked them down following a tip that came from the public. The chase ended when a US Marshals task force member drove a vehicle into the car the pair were in. Officers were able to remove the inmate from the wrecked car, but Vicky White was pinned inside with a gunshot wound to her head. Casey White reportedly told authorities to help "his wife" who had shot herself and told them he didn't do it. The pair's capture brought to a close a lengthy manhunt that gained widespread attention.
