    Was Lori Vallow Evil or Delusional? Therapist Breaks It Down What happens when a mother convinces herself her children are zombies—and that killing them is an act of divine love? Lori Vallow Daybell's story isn't just another twisted true crime—it's a deep dive into the psychology of delusion, religious obsession, and manipulation. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins us to unpack how Lori's disturbing belief system merged with narcissistic traits and collided with Chad Daybell's paranoia—leading to a series of deaths cloaked in apocalyptic visions. This conversation explores how someone who seemed like an ordinary, if eccentric, mom became convinced she was a goddess tasked with a deadly mission. And disturbingly, how many others might be just a step away from the same dark path. #LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalAnalysis #DoomsdayMom #DelusionalDisorder #LDSextremism #ChildMurderCase #MentalHealthAndCrime #ReligiousDelusion Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

    Zombies, Cults & Kids: Lori Vallow's Mental Spiral Explained Lori Vallow didn't rant about zombies in court—and that might be the most chilling part. Instead of invoking bizarre religious visions or preaching about doomsday prophecies, she showed restraint. But why? Was this calculated control, or something deeper, darker? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott unpacks the eerie awareness Lori displayed on the stand, how delusional disorders manifest beneath high-functioning exteriors, and the deeply disturbing loyalty of her brother Alex. From histrionic behaviors to detached justifications for murder, this conversation reveals a psychological profile that's even more unsettling than the cult beliefs. Why did a respected doctor harbor secret delusions about euthanasia? Could Lori's Burger King excuse actually be strategic? And how do cult dynamics explain family loyalty that ends in bloodshed? #LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #AlexCox #DelusionalDisorder #TrueCrimePsychology #ShavaunScott #HistrionicPersonality #LoriVallowTrial #TrueCrimeAnalysis #HiddenKillersPodcast Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

    Lori Vallow Daybell Found GUILTY: Inside the Verdict That Shocked the Courtroom  Lori Vallow Daybell has just been found GUILTY in her Arizona trial—an explosive moment in a case already drenched in death, conspiracy, and apocalyptic obsession. The jury's decision came after mere hours of deliberation, confirming what prosecutors have argued all along: that Lori conspired with her brother to murder her husband, Charles Vallow, for life insurance money and a fresh start with her doomsday novelist lover, Chad Daybell. Despite acting as her own attorney and putting on no defense, Lori tried to cast the fatal shooting as self-defense. But the jury didn't buy it. As the courtroom filled with emotional family members and national media, Lori calmly agreed to aggravating factors—potentially paving the way for a harsher sentence. And with the sentencing phase looming, the stakes are higher than ever. Why did she waive a defense? What role did her apocalyptic beliefs really play? And with another trial still to come, how far does this conspiracy go? #LoriVallow #LoriVallowVerdict #CharlesVallow #ChadDaybell #TrueCrime #DoomsdayMom #ArizonaTrial #MurderTrial #CrimeVerdict #CourtroomDrama Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Lori Vallow Daybell's Brother Throws Her Under The Bus, Backs Up And Runs Her Over AGAIN In a dramatic turn during the Lori Vallow Daybell trial, Alex Cox — Lori's own brother — becomes the unintentional star witness from beyond the grave. In this gripping episode, Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke to unpack the explosive testimony, recordings, and courtroom strategies that show Lori's inner circle is rapidly unraveling — and turning against her. As the prosecution lays out its case of conspiracy to murder Charles Vallow, it's clear that Lori's bizarre courtroom behavior and cross-examination tactics aren't helping her defense. But it's her brother's past statements and involvement that are painting a far more damaging picture — one that prosecutors say ties Lori directly to the motive, means, and manipulation behind the crime. Dreeke brings his expertise to examine how narcissism, spiritual delusions, and familial loyalty collide in a courtroom charged with emotion and tension. This is a must-listen for anyone following the Lori Vallow Daybell case, true crime legal strategy, or the psychology behind family conspiracies and cult-like belief systems.

    What's Wrong With Lori Vallow Daybell - A Fully Psychological Breakdown Lori Vallow Daybell believed she was on a divine mission—and that belief led to a chain of horrifying crimes.

You'll hear how Lori Vallow was found competent to stand trial—despite suffering from delusional disorder with bizarre religious content—and how her personality traits, including narcissism and histrionics, played a role in the chilling decisions she made. We explore how Lori reframed murder as salvation, why she showed no remorse, and how her courtroom behavior left experts and the public stunned. This deep dive goes beyond headlines to explain the psychology that allowed Lori Vallow to deny reality, justify murder, and continue claiming innocence—even after conviction.

Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to unravel Lori's courtroom curveball, dig into what the prosecution didn't quite prove, and question whether her silence was strategy or surrender.

From courtroom outbursts to inappropriate lines of questioning, Dreeke offers expert analysis on Vallow's narcissistic tendencies, manipulative strategies, and her obsession with settling personal scores even while facing life behind bars. They explore how Vallow's bizarre fixation on the witness' brief relationship with Charles may be less about defense and more about control, jealousy, and personal ego — all in front of a jury. If you're following the Lori Vallow Daybell trial, or searching for insight into the intersection of psychopathy, courtroom behavior, and religious delusion, this episode offers a compelling breakdown of one of the strangest trial exchanges to date.

    Did The State Really Prove That Lori Vallow Daybell Conspired To Take Out Charles Vallow?

    Did Lori Vallow Daybell really believe her ex-husband was possessed by a zombie named Ned, or was it all just part of a twisted scheme to cash in and move on? In this episode, Tony Brueski and former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis dig into the chilling courtroom strategies, eyebrow-raising insurance money moves, and the complete absence of character witnesses for the woman accused of orchestrating a deadly plot. They unpack Lori's eerie calm after Charles Vallow's death, her swift attempt to claim life insurance, and how a smiling widow made enchiladas while allegedly plotting murder. With no one stepping up to defend her character and bizarre religious delusions creeping into testimony, the case raises big questions: was this about belief, greed, or something even darker? And seriously, how does someone go from “my enchiladas are a family favorite” to “my brother might have killed my husband because a demon named Ned told us to”? Should every state allow the insanity defense—or would that be giving people like Lori an easy out? #LoriVallowDaybell #TrueCrimePodcast #HiddenKillers #CharlesVallow #MurderTrial #InsanityDefense #DarkTrueCrime Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

    Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott Breaks Down The MANY Mental Disorders At Play In Lori Vallow Daybell's Trial  Is Lori Vallow Daybell really a misunderstood prophet—or just a full-blown narcissist who thinks she can out-lawyer a courtroom? In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dive into Lori's Arizona murder trial where she's playing both defendant and defense attorney. Yes, the woman already convicted of murdering her children is now cross-examining her grieving relatives like she's starring in her own courtroom drama. Joined by psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott, we explore Lori's grandiosity, religious delusions, and her unsettling lack of remorse. From asking if her murdered husband was a good kisser to using Burger King as an alibi for why she wasn't grieving, Lori's detachment from reality is both terrifying and bizarrely theatrical. With courtroom antics that include flirty interrogations and wild gaslighting, the question isn't just whether she did it—it's how deep the delusion goes. Is this just narcissism turned up to 11, or are we witnessing the unraveling of a self-declared goddess who believes her own fantasy? What happens when someone's religious fervor becomes the excuse for murder? #LoriVallow #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalAnalysis #CourtroomDrama #HiddenKillers #ShavaunScott #NarcissismUnmasked Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

    Daybell Closing Arguments on the Way: Nephi, Luminol, and a Wedding in Hawaii

    Daybell Closing Arguments on the Way: Nephi, Luminol, and a Wedding in Hawaii The lead detective never read the Book of Mormon, but Google helped him learn that Nephi killed a man under divine orders—and somehow, that helped shape a murder investigation. As court reconvened in Lori Vallow Daybell's Arizona trial, the state officially rested its case. The defense? Also ready to rest. No witnesses. No testimony from Lori herself. Her decision was final. With closing arguments expected Monday, the court is preparing jury instructions for what could be the final stretch. But before all that, Lori had questions. A lot of them. She stepped up to the lectern and grilled Detective Nathan Duncan like she was trying out for a legal drama. Why didn't they test the bat for DNA? Why wasn't Luminol used on the gun? What about the blood on Charles Vallow's shirt? Duncan stood by the choices made—there was no visible blood, the autopsy was conclusive, and some things, he felt, just didn't require further testing. Lori pushed: is it possible for protein to be present even if blood isn't visible? Duncan acknowledged it could be, but stuck to his reasoning. The bat—allegedly wielded by Tylee—wasn't visibly bloody and had no damage. No blood, no Luminol. No DNA swabs either. Lori challenged him: if they had tested the bat and found Charles' DNA, wouldn't that corroborate Tylee's story? The prosecution objected, the judge sustained. But Lori kept hammering the same point—why didn't they look harder? Duncan explained that simply finding DNA on the bat wouldn't prove much. It belonged to Tylee, lived in the house, and anyone could have handled it. As for fingerprints? Inconclusive. Still, no tests. She dug into his knowledge of the Book of Mormon too—asking about Nephi, a figure she had previously invoked. Duncan admitted he hadn't read the book but had spoken to LDS members and done some Googling. Lori pushed again—there are four Nephis, she reminded him. She accused him of forming conclusions early and sticking to them, questioning whether his research was thorough or just conveniently limited. When asked who provided the core of the family context in his investigation, Duncan named Adam Cox—Lori's estranged brother. Lori highlighted that he hadn't interviewed her parents, her siblings, or even watched their interviews. Summer Cox was out of town, Duncan said. The others weren't at the scene. Lori wasn't buying it. She accused the investigation of being one-sided. Then there were the texts. So many texts. Messages between Lori and Chad Daybell, between Lori and Alex Cox, and between Lori and her niece, Melani. The language? Sometimes cryptic, sometimes romantic, sometimes just bizarre. Talk of "Zs"—supposedly dark spirits or zombies—and coded references to people being overtaken by evil. Melani was told not to go to Utah—it was “a setup.” Chad and Lori spoke in veiled terms about Social Security payments, forged documents, and divine missions. In the days after Charles Vallow was killed, Lori and Chad exchanged love notes, planned blessings, and fantasized about their new life together. A wedding followed just four months later, in Hawaii. The jury saw the photo: Chad and Lori, newlyweds on a beach, smiling. Meanwhile, the evidence paints a portrait of a tangled web—faith, manipulation, and a very mortal outcome. Through it all, Lori tried to flip the narrative. She emphasized how cooperative she had been with police, that she turned over Charles' phone willingly. But Duncan said he wasn't sure if Alex had done the same. His phone? It was never fully analyzed. The best they got were his call records from the carrier. The actual data? Gone. It was either a missed opportunity or an intentional blind spot, depending on which side of the courtroom you sit on. By late afternoon, both sides had nothing left to say. The prosecution stood by its evidence—volumes of it—arguing that Lori and Alex conspired to commit murder. Lori still insisted the state hadn't proved its case. But the judge saw it differently: he ruled there was enough for a jury to consider. Court adjourns tomorrow to finalize instructions. On Monday, the jury returns at 10:30 a.m. for closing arguments. Then, it's in their hands. #LoriVallowDaybell #TrueCrime #CharlesVallow #CourtroomDrama Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

    What kind of defendant just folds her arms and says “I rest” with a murder charge hanging over her head? Lori Vallow Daybell, that's who. After weeks of testimony filled with cryptic biblical code, spiritual fantasy, and enough text messages to fill a Book of Revelation sequel, Lori wrapped up her defense by doing... absolutely nothing. No witnesses. No arguments. No Hail Mary from the stand. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to dissect what this courtroom silence might really mean. Is it supreme confidence, utter delusion, or just Lori being Lori? They dig into the implications of her ghosting the defense phase, the possible strategy behind it (or lack thereof), and how the jury might interpret the eerie contrast between her bizarre “Nephi told me so” worldview and her surprisingly subdued courtroom presence. Plus—why the judge basically held her hand through the whole thing like she was trying to assemble IKEA furniture without the manual.

    What happens when an alleged cult mom decides to play lawyer in a courtroom that's very much real life? Lori Vallow Daybell's trial in Arizona is giving us more plot twists than a soap opera binge—and none of them are good for her. With her green chili enchiladas (allegedly) as underwhelming as her courtroom strategy, Vallow fumbles her way through legal procedures while the prosecution casually rewrites courtroom rules with leading questions galore. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins to unpack this circus, pointing out that while Lori may know the word “quash,” she has no clue how to use it in a way that doesn't quash her own defense. And while the judge is gently waving red flags in front of her—“Are you sure you want to bring up the dead kids?”—Lori seems unfazed, maybe even unaware. Meanwhile, the prosecution is trying to prove conspiracy without actually, you know, proving it. So far, they're just showing the jury that Lori is a narcissist who makes bad life choices... and even worse legal ones. Is the state actually going to prove Lori was part of a conspiracy, or will this whole case crumble under the weight of its own vague texts and courtroom chaos? #LoriVallow #TrueCrimePodcast #BobMotta #HiddenKillers #DefenseDiaries #TrueCrimeToday #CourtroomDrama Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

    In this gripping episode, we break down Day 7 of the Lori Vallow Daybell trial in Arizona—a day that delivered some of the most damning evidence yet. Detective Nathan Duncan walked the jury through a digital trail of apocalyptic text messages and religious language, including Lori's infamous “Be like Nephi” message allegedly encouraging her brother to act out a divinely-justified killing. Prosecutors revealed a disturbing pattern of communication that framed Charles Vallow as possessed, dehumanized, and ultimately disposable. We dive deep into Lori's secret communications with Chad Daybell, including fake email accounts, religious fan fiction, and passionate love texts that appear to link their affair to Charles's death. We also examine the financial angle—how Charles's $1 million life insurance policy became a focal point after he changed the beneficiary, cutting Lori out just before his murder. Within 24 hours of his death, Lori was at the Social Security office, and within four months, she was marrying Chad Daybell in Hawaii. And then came the twist: Lori rested her case without calling a single witness. No explanation. No defense. Nothing. As prosecutors wrapped up their case, the courtroom was left in stunned silence. What does it mean when a defendant charged with conspiracy and murder says nothing in her own defense?

    Inside the iCloud Trail That Exposed Lori Vallow: Divine Missions, Dead Bodies, and a Deleted Husband

    Inside the iCloud Trail That Exposed Lori Vallow: Divine Missions, Dead Bodies, and a Deleted Husband “So the Plot Thickens” Charles Vallow was already dead when his brother-in-law Alex Cox finally decided to call 911. That call didn't come until 8:36 a.m., and Charles had been lying on the floor for at least 47 minutes by then. Lori Vallow, his wife, had already left the house by 7:49 a.m.—taking Charles' phone with her—and she never made a call for help. Not on her phone, not on his. Nothing. Just silence. The whole scene, the timing, the calls—or lack thereof—was outlined by Chandler Police Detective Nathan Duncan as he testified about what they found when they started pulling data from Lori's iCloud and Charles' phone. Turns out, the dead man's device was still being used hours after he was killed. The texts Adam Cox sent to his brother Charles that morning were read promptly—until they weren't. Suddenly, the messages stopped being opened. Then, at 12:13 p.m., they were read. Charles had been dead for hours by then. So who was reading them? The breadcrumbs didn't stop there. Duncan found that Alex Cox had sent Lori the flight itinerary for Adam's trip after Charles died, but the message was sent using Charles' phone. That's like borrowing someone's toothbrush after they've been buried. Adam, meanwhile, was desperately trying to reach Alex—texting and calling—once he got into Phoenix on July 10. No reply. At all. Then came the iCloud accounts—two of them: “lollytime” and “lori4style.” These accounts were a goldmine of encrypted nonsense and unsettling revelations. Lori had flown to Idaho in March 2019 and returned with Chad Daybell the same month. Around that same time, there was an odd email supposedly from Charles inviting Chad to Houston to write a book. Only problem? Charles didn't send it. Lori did. She made a fake email account under the name Karen Walker and used her own old phone number to set it up. By June 27, the messages between Charles and Lori had all but dried up. Their marriage was clearly fractured, but not in a normal marital spat kind of way. This was nuclear. Charles was living in Houston, but he still helped Lori move into the Phoenix rental on June 22. That lease was supposed to run until 2022. On July 10, he flew into town. He was planning an intervention. He had been talking with Lori's brother Adam about it. They were going to try to bring Lori back to reality, whatever that even looked like anymore. Too bad Lori already knew. She had texted Alex around 9:50 p.m. the night before Charles died saying, “Getting sleepy. So I'm going to need you to stay close to me the next few days. Mel too. She can't go to Utah. They are planking (sic) some kind of intervention…Lots to do. Thank you for standing by me. It's all coming to a head this week. I will be like Nephi I am told! And so will you.” That's a reference to a Book of Mormon figure known for killing a man to obtain sacred records. Light bedtime reading, apparently. The “Nephi” text came just after Lori messaged Alex, “So the plot thickens. Call me when u can.” That was July 8. By July 11, Charles was dead. Lori and Alex weren't just texting about scripture and divine missions. They were deep in a parallel universe where Charles wasn't Charles anymore. He was “Ned,” a dark spirit that had taken over his body. In February and March, Lori told Alex that Ned had been at the temple looking for him. She said Tylee “unleashed on him.” She even asked, “No one has seen him, right? Just talked to him??” As if Charles was a missing ghost in a body suit. Then there's the money. Lori sent pictures of Charles' life insurance policy to a contact named “Bubby,” along with documentation showing she was the beneficiary. But there was also a picture showing that Kay Woodcock, Charles' sister, had been made the new beneficiary. That change had been made by Charles. Lori wasn't thrilled. On July 12—the day after Charles was killed—Lori texted about going to Social Security. Because when someone dies, the paperwork party begins. When detectives entered the home on July 11, they found Charles' body face up on the western side of a mostly empty room. There was a bat nearby, but no blood splatter on the walls or floor—just a little blood on Charles' left hand, suggesting he had placed it on his chest after being shot. The bullet? It went through his body and left a visible strike in the floor. Duncan cut that piece out for evidence. Alex claimed he was injured in the scuffle, but no one saw any wounds that morning. Later, during the investigation, they learned he had a cut on the back of his head. Even the gun he used—registered to him—had no blood on it. Inside the house, they found an orange duffle bag with a Health Savings Account card labeled Alex Cox. There were extra magazines inside. The kitchen faucet had a smear of blood, but no towels, no evidence of cleanup. It's like everyone knew Charles was going to die that day—except Charles. #LoriVallow #CharlesVallow #TrueCrimePodcast #DaybellCase Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

Prosecutors detailed a 42-minute delay between Charles Vallow's death and the 911 call—during which Lori allegedly went to Burger King, bought flip-flops at Walgreens, and dropped off her son at school. Detective testimony and surveillance footage laid out a timeline that painted Lori not as a grieving widow, but as someone oddly composed—and possibly calculating. The spotlight then shifted to Lori's own bizarre courtroom performance as she continued representing herself. Her cross-examinations of detectives derailed into irrelevant questions about her late husband's dating life, speculative talk about “stress-induced thirst,” and multiple judge reprimands. At one point, she nearly opened the door to her prior murder convictions—prompting a quick sidebar and legal warning from the bench. Observers in the courtroom described her approach as chaotic, legally risky, and ultimately damaging to her credibility in front of the jury. But despite the state's heavy use of circumstantial evidence—timelines, surveillance, and behavior—there's still one big issue the prosecution hasn't solved: direct proof of a conspiracy. With no confession, no witness to Lori ordering the killing, and her co-conspirator Alex Cox now deceased, the state is asking the jury to connect the dots. In this episode, we break down the strongest testimony, the wildest courtroom moments, and the gaps that still leave room for reasonable doubt in the trial of Lori Vallow Daybell.

    'Was He A Good Kisser', Breaking Down Lori Daybell's Crazy Cross Exam With Attorney Eric Faddis In this riveting episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we explore the opening days of Lori Vallow-Daybell's highly publicized trial in an Arizona courtroom. Lori, notoriously dubbed the "Doomsday Mom," is facing charges of conspiring to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, and has chosen the unconventional path of representing herself. Tony Brueski, alongside former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis, scrutinizes Lori's risky decision to serve as her own legal counsel, likening her courtroom tactics to a "slow-motion legal train wreck." The episode meticulously dissects the prosecution's robust and detail-oriented presentation, contrasting sharply with Lori's unpredictable and often perplexing defense strategy. Tony and Eric highlight significant courtroom moments, such as discussions surrounding life insurance policies, accusations of infidelity, and unsettling testimony involving dark spiritual beliefs used to rationalize murder. The intricate web of evidence and narrative presented by the prosecution is analyzed, offering listeners insights into how such arguments might influence the jury's perception of Lori's culpability. Finally, the conversation delves into Lori Vallow-Daybell's intense and emotionally charged cross-examinations, particularly her peculiar fixation on the personal details of her late husband's interactions and relationships. Tony and Eric consider whether Lori's self-representation, marked by apparent narcissism and irrelevant lines of questioning, might ultimately harm her defense rather than help.

    Daybell Trial-Flipping the Narrative: Burger King, Cell Phones, and a Suspicious Timeline

    Daybell Trial-Flipping the Narrative: Burger King, Cell Phones, and a Suspicious Timeline If Lori Vallow really left the house after Charles Vallow was shot, why was she at a Burger King drive-thru 42 minutes before the 911 call? That was the first red flag for Detective Ariel Werther. When he started digging into the July 11, 2019 shooting of Charles Vallow, it didn't take long to find cracks in Lori's story. She claimed she left the house after Charles was killed, took her son JJ to school, and went about her day. But Werther, who's well-trained in mapping GPS and cell phone data, wasn't buying the timeline. He reviewed Charles' T-Mobile GPS data, which showed his device was still pinging. That data led Werther to believe Lori hadn't gone to a CVS, like she originally claimed, but to a Walgreens instead. After calling seven CVS locations and turning up nothing, Werther rang up Walgreens, asked if anyone matching Lori's description had come in to buy flip-flops, and—bingo—got a hit. Surveillance footage and a receipt confirmed she was there. But the biggest problem was still the fast food stop. Werther checked the surveillance footage at Burger King. He confirmed the timestamp was accurate and watched as Lori pulled through the drive-thru in a red rental car at exactly 7:54 a.m. Yet, the 911 call reporting Charles' shooting wasn't made until 8:36 a.m.—a 42-minute gap that Lori had conveniently glossed over. That gap grew even more suspicious when Werther ran the drive time from the Burger King to JJ's school and back. Given Arizona traffic, it would've been nearly impossible to make that loop in 12 minutes. Werther also obtained Charles' hotel receipt from Tru Hilton and the key card Lori claimed to have found in his wallet. He and Detective Moffatt later searched the hotel room, collecting Charles' laptop and other personal items, which were logged by the Chandler Police Department. Meanwhile, cell phone records from Lori, Charles, and Alex Cox were subpoenaed. Werther compiled a detailed PowerPoint showing GPS data from Charles' phone the morning he was killed. It painted a picture of movement—where the phone had been, what times it had pinged—useful, but not conclusive. After all, GPS shows where the phone is, not necessarily who's carrying it. Still, the electronic trail, plus the physical receipts and surveillance footage, started to stitch together a timeline that didn't align with Lori's version of events. As all of this played out in court, Lori herself took the unusual step of questioning Det. Ynclan during the trial. She asked about her own behavior, whether she was cooperative, if she handed over Charles' phone willingly (she did), and why she had two phones at the time. She even asked about whether stressful situations make people thirsty—an apparent effort to justify why she ordered two bottles of water at Burger King after a supposed fatal domestic altercation. Ynclan noted Lori's calm demeanor as “odd.” Her husband had just been shot. Her brother pulled the trigger. Her kids were there. Yet Lori was described as “chattering” in the car, more like someone heading to brunch than leaving the scene of a homicide. The defense tried to draw attention to minor details—how hot the Arizona pavement was in July, whether walking barefoot would be uncomfortable, and how long the altercation lasted. But it all felt like noise. Because the signal was clear: Lori Vallow said she left the house after the shooting. The evidence says she hit up Burger King 42 minutes before calling 911. #LoriVallow #CharlesVallow #TrueCrime #CellPhoneData Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

    The Full Breakdown Of Day 5 In The Trial of Lori Vallow Daybell  On April 14th, 2025, the courtroom saw the unraveling of Lori Vallow's carefully constructed narrative, and it came straight from her own mouth. In a day packed with testimony, jurors heard forensic experts explain how Charles Vallow was shot twice—once possibly while already on the ground. The medical examiner and ballistics analyst confirmed the shots came from Alex Cox's gun, fired deliberately, not accidentally. But it was Lori's own voice, played back from her 2019 police interview, that may have delivered the most damaging blow yet to her defense. Social Security investigators testified that Lori applied for and received nearly $4,000 a month in survivor benefits just weeks after Charles's death—money for both herself and her son JJ. Jurors also heard audio from Lori's recorded phone calls to a life insurance company, in which she expressed surprise and frustration at being removed as the beneficiary of Charles's $1 million policy. The prosecution is building a clear case that Lori believed she would financially benefit from her husband's death and moved quickly to collect what she thought was hers. But perhaps the most haunting part of the day was how Lori acted in the immediate aftermath of the killing. According to detectives, she never cried, never asked about Charles, and casually chatted during the car ride to the station. Her interview was peppered with laughter and contradictions—admitting she started the argument, referring only to “a shot,” and claiming to already know Charles was dead before police told her.

    Lori Daybell Trial: She Called It an Accident

    Play Episode Listen Later Apr 15, 2025 20:52


    Lori Daybell Trial: She Called It an Accident Lori Vallow called the life insurance company just one week after Charles Vallow was shot to death, calmly reporting his death and trying to file a claim on his $2 million policy. When asked the cause of death, Lori paused, then said, “Well, he was shot. I don't know if I want to put that,” before quickly clarifying, “It was an accident.” In that moment, she wasn't calling as a grieving widow. She sounded like someone handling paperwork for a delayed flight. Robin Scott, a claims processor for Banner Life, testified that Lori believed she was still the primary beneficiary. But Charles had changed that months before, making Kay Woodcock—the grandmother of JJ Vallow—the sole recipient. Banner sent Lori a letter informing her she wasn't the beneficiary. It didn't say who was, just that she wasn't. After receiving the email, Lori left a voicemail, then finally got Scott on the phone. In that recorded call played in court, Lori gave her name, spelled out the policy number, and made a point of noting that she and Charles had five kids and had been married fifteen years. She also brought up their adopted 7-year-old son, JJ, who had autism, expressing shock that Charles would make a beneficiary change without telling her. But none of that changed the facts—she was no longer entitled to the money. Scott explained in her testimony that changing a beneficiary is a straightforward but secure process. If a policy is valued over $500,000, the form must be notarized. That's exactly what Charles did in February 2019, five months before his death. Lori may have suspected it, but hearing the confirmation seemed to catch her off guard. Back in the courtroom, forensic evidence added grim clarity to what really happened to Charles Vallow. Dr. Derek Baumgarner, the medical examiner who performed the autopsy, described two fatal gunshot wounds. One to the chest and one to the abdomen. The first bullet traveled through the chest, perforating the heart, and exited out the back. The second shot entered the abdomen, tore through tissue and a lung, then exited out the shoulder. The exit wound bore a telltale “shored” pattern—meaning Charles was lying against a hard surface when the bullet exited his body. He was likely shot again while already on the ground. There was stippling near one wound—tiny abrasions caused by gunpowder particles—indicating the gun was fired from close range, likely just two to four feet away. No drugs or alcohol were found in Charles' system. The official cause of death: multiple gunshot wounds. And according to the ME, neither wound was instantly fatal—Charles may have lived for a few seconds, maybe a few minutes. Enough time, perhaps, to reach toward his injuries or collapse to his knees, as abrasions on his knees and hands suggested a fall. Firearms expert Jeff Moberg from the Department of Public Safety testified about the gun used in the shooting. A semi-automatic handgun, found in Alex Cox's bag, had fired the rounds recovered from the scene. When a bullet travels through the barrel, it picks up microscopic markings—essentially a ballistic fingerprint. That fingerprint matched casings found at the scene to Alex's gun. Moberg explained how casings from semi-automatic firearms are ejected after firing. One trigger pull, one shot, and then it cycles another round. It's not just the projectile that carries evidence—the casing left behind holds telltale markings too. Moberg, trained in forensic firearm analysis, verified that the casings from the scene were consistent with rounds fired from Alex Cox's gun. The kind of evidence that doesn't lie, doesn't bend to emotion, and doesn't forget. Then came the financials. The Social Security Office's Mark Saari testified that Lori Vallow received survivor benefits not just for JJ Vallow, but for herself as well. After Charles' death, she received $1,951 per month for JJ, with backpay of nearly $4,000. She also received her own benefits, totaling around the same amount. Combined, Lori was pulling in almost $4,000 a month. But there was a catch. If she remarried, her eligibility for the spousal portion of the benefit would end. Which is exactly what happened when she married Chad Daybell in November 2019. The payments stopped—at least the ones meant for her. Saari also revealed that Lori had previously been receiving benefits as the representative payee for Tylee Ryan, from the death of Tylee's father. It wasn't just one financial pipeline—Lori had several. But Social Security benefits require recipients to follow the rules, and when Saari investigated, he found discrepancies. For instance, Lori never told the agency she had remarried. She continued to receive spousal benefits until investigators discovered the change. That's not a clerical error. That's fraud. On the stand, Lori attempted to suggest that Social Security employees might have made mistakes during her application process, that maybe someone entered the wrong code or clicked the wrong box. But Saari stood firm. He had reviewed all the documentation. The forms Lori filled out were correct—for the benefits she applied for. And she applied for them. In the end, all the legal wrangling, insurance claims, and benefit paperwork come back to one day: July 11, 2019. That's when Charles Vallow was shot. Two bullets. No drugs. One witness—Alex Cox—who claimed it was self-defense. But the physical evidence, the phone calls, the policy forms, and the forensic reports all speak louder than words. #LoriVallow #CharlesVallow #TrueCrimePodcast #AutopsyEvidence Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?

    Week one of the Lori Vallow Daybell trial is in the books — and what a week it was. In this powerful breakdown, Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke to unpack the chaotic courtroom scenes, surreal self-representation tactics, and emotionally charged testimony that set the tone for one of the most bizarre murder trials in recent history. As Vallow plays both defendant and her own attorney, the courtroom becomes a stage for narcissism, misplaced priorities, and deeply personal vendettas. Dreeke offers behavioral insights into Vallow's obsessive questioning, her fixation on irrelevant personal details, and her increasingly combative tone — all while the prosecution builds a compelling case tying her to the conspiracy to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow.

    Did Lori Vallow Daybell really believe she was saving her daughter from danger—or is that just the story she's hoping the jury will buy? The Arizona trial is underway and while the courtroom may not be bursting with fireworks just yet, there's no shortage of bizarre strategy and eyebrow-raising moments. Defense Attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski to unpack Lori's awkward attempts at cross-examination, her oddly competent opening statement (complete with the overuse of “the evidence will show”), and her legally risky gamble of possibly testifying. With no living witnesses left to corroborate her narrative, the alleged cult mom might be the only one who can sell the tale of self-defense… but at what cost? They also dissect the prosecution's efforts to avoid deep-diving into the apocalyptic beliefs that fueled Lori's alleged descent, and the strange decision to dodge any “zombie” talk—for now. From missing motives to sketchy video claims, it's clear the jury's in for a twisted journey… but can Lori really pull this off without taking the stand? Is the jury buying any of it? #LoriVallow #LoriVallowDaybell #TrueCrimeToday #CultMomTrial #DefenseDiaries #BobMotta #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

    Lori Vallow Daybell Gets Mad At Witness Who Went On Date With Husband She Killed In this compelling episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we take an in-depth look at the opening week of the highly anticipated trial of Lori Vallow-Daybell. Lori, infamously known as the "Doomsday Mom," has opted to represent herself in court, turning the proceedings into a spectacle marked by intense exchanges and controversial courtroom moments. Tony Bruski, joined by former prosecutor and defense attorney Eric Faddis, examines Lori's bold yet questionable decision to act as her own lawyer, comparing it to a "slow-motion legal train wreck" unfolding before the jury's eyes. Listeners will hear a detailed breakdown of the prosecution's methodical and compelling approach, contrasting sharply with Lori Vallow-Daybell's unconventional and often baffling legal maneuvers. Tony and Eric discuss key testimonies and evidentiary strategies presented by the state, highlighting critical points such as accusations of infidelity, life insurance motives, and eerie claims involving dark spirits and supernatural justifications for murder. The analysis explores how these complex narrative threads might resonate with jurors and influence their perception of Lori's guilt. Finally, the discussion tackles Lori's emotionally charged cross-examinations, particularly her fixation on the intimate details of her late husband Charles Vallow's personal life, which appear more driven by narcissistic curiosity than a coherent legal strategy. Tony and Eric also consider the potential implications of Lori's erratic courtroom behavior, debating whether her approach could sway the jury or ultimately sabotage her own defense. Tune in for expert commentary and insightful perspectives on one of the most sensational and bizarre murder trials making headlines today. Want to listen to ALL our podcasts AD-FREE?
