Not too smart to lay low in an Indiana hotel. Not sure what their long-term plan was or even if they had one. They likely would have been caught sooner if there had not been a mix-up with the car she bought.
Incredibly dumb. They couldn't have bought a vehicle they could both sleep in? It wouldn't have had to be anything expensive. How could they have thought, they could move into a motel, and not be recognized, knowing they were all over the news? That's just strange. Maybe they wanted to be caught? Maybe they both had subconscious self-destructive tendencies.

It makes perfect sense.
Neither was an accomplished outdoorsmen or survivalist.
Some folks just don’t have the knowledge and discipline it takes to live off the grid. They need their WiFi, internet, fast food, air conditioning, stove, microwave, comfy bed, and refrigerator.
You have to hand over your car keys, if you want more than a regular car wash. Sorry, I should have linked the youtube I saw it on. I think it was NewsNation, but not sure.
Okay, I guess Casey just stole the Cadillac with the keys that were left there when the Caddy owner went in for a car wash?
If it was that easy, every criminal fugitive would do it. (The ones who did do it were already knowledgeable outdoorsmen/survivalist.
Exactly. Special Forces military commandos are highly trained survivalists, and that’s why they can adapt to nearly any environment. Put an on the run fugitive without any outdoors knowledge or skills in a remote environment unprepared, and they could be dead in a week.

Casey reportedly grew up hunting and fishing; doesn't take much "survivalism" to survive in an RV or old cabin. But maybe she didn't like roughing it and insisted on a hotel room!

Probably just stupid. Remember what George Carlin said: “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
Unbelievable! Am I missing something here? Eleven days on the run. Three (?) vehicles & they only made it 217 miles?
And she shoots herself? Was she afraid of becoming an inmate like the probably thousands of inmates she's interacted with over her career? She wouldn't have even been there for very long. She couldn't take what she'd been dishing out? Ugh! Oh whatever, lol I don't know why this annoys me so much
I wonder if she slowed him down. He's probably regretting keeping her around for so long. Now he's going back to prison but this time; without his Sugar Mom.
Admit it -- you're just mad that it didn't end in CO.
On a more somber note, though, it does seem like she didn't conceive this into a long-term plan. She might have been realistic enough to know that the odds were hopelessly stacked against them.
As far as not being able to take what she herself dished at one time, it's incredibly humiliating to be a prisoner, never mind a notorious, nationally known one. She would have had to face the music from everyone she once worked with, plus the collective contempt and hatred of the majority of the American public. Years and years of televised ridicule and hate mail, every minute of those years spent in solitary confinement in shackles due to both her notoriety and her knowledge of how jails are run, to culminate in destitute old age, punctuated, of course, by further supervision from parole.
I can see her opting out of that as a rational act.
