As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we revisit the opening days of one of the most chilling courtroom dramas in modern true crime — the Arizona trial of Lori Vallow Daybell, the self-declared prophet now serving life sentences in Idaho for the murders of her children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and the conspiracy to kill Tammy Daybell. This time, Lori stands accused of murdering her fourth husband, Charles Vallow — and she's decided to be her own lawyer. In this two-part special, Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole dissect the emotional and strategic fireworks from both sides of the courtroom, starting with the prosecution's explosive opening  statement. Prosecutor Treena Kay laid out a devastating narrative of greed, manipulation, and religious delusion — alleging that Lori orchestrated the deaths of her husband and children to secure life insurance payouts and remove any obstacles to marrying Chad Daybell. Through phone records, witness testimony, and forensic evidence, the prosecution painted Lori as a woman willing to kill for prophecy, power, and profit. Tony and Stacy break down the psychological weight of the prosecution's arguments — from the use of religious ideology as control to the manipulation of her brother Alex Cox, who became her self-proclaimed “angel of death.” They also analyze the jury's visible reactions and the emotional undercurrent of a courtroom haunted by victims' families still seeking answers. Then, in Part Two, the focus shifts to Lori's stunning self-representation — and her surreal decision to stand as both defendant and defense counsel. Lori's opening statement cast herself as misunderstood and unfairly vilified, arguing that her brother acted in self-defense during Charles's death. But Tony and Stacy reveal how Lori's calm, confident demeanor may mask deep narcissism and delusion — a belief that she alone can rewrite the narrative of her crimes. As Tony and Stacy unpack the legal and psychological implications of Lori's “sovereign” defense, listeners gain rare insight into a defendant whose blend of charisma and chaos continues to defy legal logic and human empathy.

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we turn our focus to one of the most bizarre and psychologically chilling trials unfolding in America: Lori Vallow Daybell, the self-proclaimed prophet who's decided she's the best person to defend herself in court. Already convicted in Idaho for the murders of her two youngest children, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow, and the conspiracy to murder her husband's former wife, Tammy Daybell, Lori is now facing justice in Arizona for the murder of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. But this time, there's no defense team to shield her — because Lori fired them. She's representing herself. In this special, Tony Brueski sits down with psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott to unpack the chilling psychology behind Lori's decision, exploring how delusion, narcissism, and religious grandiosity collide in a courtroom setting. Lori's behavior — confident, defiant, and disturbingly serene — may seem erratic, but Scott explains how it fits a pattern of pathological self-belief common among cult leaders and high-control personalities. During her recent pretrial hearing, Lori insisted on moving forward with trial despite her own forensics expert not being ready, demanded to exclude incriminating statements from her deceased brother Alex Cox, and even tried to subpoena journalist Nate Eaton — the reporter who's covered her saga from day one. She also hinted at testifying in her own defense, setting the stage for one of the most surreal spectacles in recent legal history. But beneath the theatrics lies a darker psychology. Lori isn't just defending herself legally — she's defending her identity as a “divine messenger.” Scott breaks down how shared psychosis (folie à deux) between Lori and her husband Chad Daybell fueled a belief system that justified murder under the guise of prophecy. Together, they turned apocalypse fantasies into fatal decisions. As jury selection looms and Arizona prosecutors prepare to argue their case, Tony and Shavaun explore whether Lori's self-representation is a strategy, a symptom, or both — and how her religious delusions continue to warp her sense of accountability.

Chad Daybell just dropped Letter #9 about his “third near-death experience” from 2017, complete with a Spirit Woman in Black, a minute-long blackout where family says he turned purple, and a “fiery dart” that he and Tammy interpreted as a spiritual weapon. Let's unpack how this letter fits Chad Daybell's Death Row Marketing Plan. It's a rebranding campaign that uses religious imagery, paranormal claims, and nostalgia to push the public away from the facts that Chad Daybell was convicted of murdering his wife, Tammy Daybell, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan. Shortly after Tammy's death he secretly married Lori Vallow in Hawaii while JJ and Tylee were buried on his property. Walk through the manipulation tactics, the psychology, spiritual bypassing, magical thinking, dissociation, impression management, and the quiet sales pitch back to his books and speaking circuit. We'll keep JJ, Tylee, Tammy, Charles Vallow, Brandon Boudreaux, and Colby Ryan front and center, where they belong.#ChadDaybell #LoriDaybell #LoriVallow #TammyDaybell #JJVallow #TyleeRyan #CharlesVallow #BrandonBoudreaux #ColbyRyan #AlexCox #MelanieGibb #ZulemaPastenes #DaybellLetters #Letter9 #ThirdNDE #WomanInBlack #FieryDart #IdahoMurders=======================================Feedback Friday Links: https://shorturl.at/lBEKLor ProfilingEvil@gmail.comOrder Wolves in Sheep's Clothing now! https://www.profilingevil.com/wolvesOrder Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.

When the “Letters from Chad” project launched in September 2025, convicted killer Chad Daybell tried to rebrand himself as a persecuted prophet, writing from his death row cell in Idaho, preaching innocence between the lines. But the words that were supposed to save his image did something else entirely. They exposed him. Let's walk through the full timeline of these letters, when they began, what he said, and why they suddenly stopped. We'll talk about the psychology behind Chad's need to control the narrative, how narcissistic offenders weaponize faith, and what this silence really means for his legal strategy and his psyche.Because make no mistake about the silence. It isn't a sign of redemption, it's a moment of recalibration. And when the next “revelation” comes, it'll be scripted, strategic, and manipulative. We'll also examine how his words impact the families of JJ Vallow, Tylee Ryan, Tammy Daybell, and Charles Vallow and why the world should never forget that behind his spiritual spin lies real human tragedy. Then I'll share why I believe Chad's personality won't allow him to stay silent. The prophet may be grounded for now—but he's still trying to fly that same broken plane.#ChadDaybell #LoriVallow #LoriDaybell #TammyDaybell #JJVallow #TyleeRyan #CharlesVallow #AlexCox #EmmaMurray #DaybellLetters #DoomsdayCult #IdahoMurders #TrueCrime #DeathRow #Profiling #Psychology #Narcissist #Faith #Fraud #JusticeForJJ #JusticeForTylee #JusticeForTammy #CourtTV #LawAndCrime #DoomsdayProphet #LettersFromChad #Idaho #Cult=======================================Order Wolves in Sheep's Clothing now! https://www.profilingevil.com/wolvesOrder Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.

What happens when a convicted killer uses nostalgia and romance to stage-manage his legacy from Death Row? In Letter #2, Chad Daybell devotes page after page to Tammy Daybell—his wife of nearly 30 years, a mother of five, and, tragically, his murder victim. He paints her as radiant, saintly, and strong woman while weaving a love story full of concerts, family memories, and business success. But what's missing speaks louder than what's included. The “Tammy Letter” leaves me even more empty than Letter #1. From absolutes like “I never considered harming her” to tender anecdotes designed to blunt inquiry, let's expose the rhetorical playbook: Chad's biography of personal sainthood, his omissions, and the strategic rewriting of history. But, we'll keep the focus where it belongs—on Tammy Daybell, on Tylee Ryan and J.J. Vallow, and on the families forced to live in the shadow of these crimes. Along the way, we'll examine the psychological defenses of narcissism, gaslighting, and impression management, and we'll show why these letters aren't contrition, but performance.#ChadDaybell #LoriVallow #TammyDaybell #TyleeRyan #JJVallow #CharlesVallow #AlexCox #BrandonBoudreaux #FremontCounty #RexburgPolice #IdahoCourt #FBI #NicholasBallance #VanessaMielke #TrueCrime #CultCrimes #DeathRow #ProfilingEvil #CrimeCon #MurderTrial #JusticeForTammy #JusticeForTylee #JusticeForJJ=======================================20% Off on www.Newspapers.com/profilingevil Order Wolves in Sheep's Clothing now! https://www.profilingevil.com/wolvesOrder Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.

What do you get when a convicted killer tries to stage-manage his legacy from Death Row? Chad Daybell's new prison letters are less a private outpouring and more a calculated rebranding—religious framing, family testimony, nostalgic anecdotes, and the promise of “more” to come. In this episode we pull the curtain back on those letters and trace the psychological playbook: narcissistic supply, image control, and the strategic seeding of an appeals narrative. We'll map the players—Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow, Tammy Daybell, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow—then drop in other critical figures who appear in the bleed-through of the story: Charles Vallow, Alex Cox, Brandon Beaudreau (and the variants people search), the witnesses who testified, local law enforcement in Rexburg and Fremont County, FBI agents, and the prosecutors who built the case. This is equal parts courtroom forensic, cult-leader theater, and behavioral profile—aimed at listeners who want to see the rhetorical tricks, the legal signals, and the people who keep getting pulled back into this tragic orbit.#ChadDaybell #LoriVallow #TammyDaybell #TyleeRyan #JJVallow #CharlesVallow #AlexCox #BrandonBeaudreau #brandonbeaudreuax #Rexburg #FremontCounty #IdahoMaximumSecurity #IdahoMSI #RexburgIdaho #FremontCountySheriff #RexburgPolice #IdahoStatePolice #FBI #Prosecutors #WitnessTestimony #CourtroomDrama #TrialCoverage #CultCrimes #TrueCrimeCommunity #ProfilingEvil #JusticeForTammy #JusticeForTylee #JusticeForJJ #DaybellTrial #VallowInvestigation=======================================20% Off on www.Newspapers.com/profilingevil Order Wolves in Sheep's Clothing now! https://www.profilingevil.com/wolvesOrder Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.

Uma mãe devota, um novo amor com visões apocalípticas e dois filhos que desapareceram sem deixar vestígios. O caso de Lori Vallow é um dos mais perturbadores dos últimos anos — e parece tirado de um roteiro de terror com toques de thriller religioso.Lori Vallow e Chad Daybell acreditavam estar cumprindo uma missão divina. Eles pregavam sobre reencarnação, possessões demoníacas e o fim iminente do mundo — e aos poucos, seus amigos, cônjuges e até filhos passaram a ser vistos como obstáculos espirituais a serem eliminados.Em 2019, Tylee Ryan e JJ Vallow, os filhos de Lori, desapareceram misteriosamente. E, enquanto seus rostos estampavam cartazes de “crianças desaparecidas”, a mãe deles curtia férias no Havaí com seu novo marido e parceiro espiritual.A investigação que se seguiu revelou uma rede de crenças apocalípticas, mortes suspeitas, fraudes e uma frieza que desafia qualquer explicação lógica.Neste episódio, Andrei Fernandes, Rafael Jacáuna e Gi Pessoa mergulham fundo nos documentos, depoimentos e decisões por trás de um dos casos mais chocantes da justiça americana recente, e levantam a pergunta:Quando a fé se transforma em fanatismo, quem paga o preço?

The FINAL Sentencing Of Lori Vallow Daybell & Her Latest Crazy Message In Court On July 25, 2025, the saga of Lori Vallow Daybell finally reached its explosive conclusion in an Arizona courtroom. Already serving multiple life sentences in Idaho for the murders of her children, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow, and her romantic rival, Tammy Daybell, Lori received two additional life sentences for conspiring to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, and her niece's ex-husband, Brandon Boudreaux. But it wasn't just the sentencing that stunned the courtroom — it was Lori herself. In a courtroom performance that defied belief, Lori Vallow chose to represent herself. She delivered a rambling, self-absorbed monologue in which she painted herself as the victim, complained about the food in jail, and insisted that what happened wasn't a crime but a “family tragedy.” She even stated she would apologize only “if she was accountable,” still denying any wrongdoing. The judge didn't hold back, calling out her “blatant disregard for humanity” and making it crystal clear she would never again walk free. This episode breaks down the final chapter of one of the most bizarre and disturbing criminal cases in recent memory. We'll analyze Lori's bizarre courtroom behavior, her choice to forgo legal representation, and the judge's scathing response. Plus, we'll explore the broader legal and psychological implications of a defendant who blends delusion with performance. Lori Vallow wanted the final word. She got it — and it was as chaotic and unsettling as her entire criminal trail. #LoriVallow #LoriVallowDaybell #DoomsdayMom #FinalSentencing #CourtroomDrama #TrueCrimePodcast #TrueCrimeCommunity #SelfRepresentation #ArizonaTrial #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

What happens when a woman accused of murder—already convicted of killing her children, conspiring to kill her husband's wife, and murdering her former spouse—decides to act as her own attorney in a courtroom? In this gripping investigation, we break down why Lori Vallow Daybell's decision to represent herself in her Arizona trial wasn't just ill-advised—it was a disaster. From her bizarre objections to courtroom outbursts steeped in religious delusion, Lori turned her trial into a sideshow, all while costing Arizona taxpayers upwards of $100,000 in housing alone. But the real price? Delayed justice, retraumatized families, and the erosion of courtroom integrity. Using Abraham Lincoln's timeless quote—“He who represents himself has a fool for a client”—we unpack the sobering realities of pro se defense in serious criminal cases. Why did the court allow it? Should there be limits when the stakes involve life, death, and public safety? Join us as we explore the legal failures, financial burdens, and emotional toll of Lori Daybell's self-representation. We'll also discuss potential reforms to prevent future courtroom catastrophes and preserve justice for victims like JJ Vallow, Tylee Ryan, Charles Vallow, and Tammy Daybell. #loridaybell #chaddaybell #jjvallow #tyleeryan #charlesvallow #tammdaybell #brandonboudreaux #alexcox #melanieboudreaux #zulemahpastenes #cultmom #doomsdaycult #doomsdaymom #latterdaysaints #prosecosts #proselaw #prosetrials #selfrepresentation #profilingevil #truecrime #daybelltrial #ldscult #justicematters #courtroomchaos #highprofiletrial #cultpsychology #murdertrial #tragedy #deathpenaltycase #mentalcompetency #familyannihilator=======================================Order Deceived, An Investigative Memoir of the Zion Society Cult.

Lori Vallow Daybell GUILTY Verdict in 30 Minutes: Third Murder Conviction Timeline Lori Vallow Daybell found GUILTY of conspiracy to commit murder in just 30 MINUTES of jury deliberation on June 12, 2025. This marks her THIRD murder-related conviction following her Idaho life sentences for killing her children JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and her April 2025 Arizona conviction for conspiring to murder fourth husband Charles Vallow. In this comprehensive breakdown, we analyze the October 2019 attempted murder of Brandon Boudreaux, Lori's niece's ex-husband, who survived a drive-by shooting at his Arizona home. The prosecution's case included damning evidence: modified Jeep with tinted windows and removed back seat, gunshot residue, burner phones, and cell tower data placing conspirators at the scene. Watch as we examine why Lori Vallow Daybell chose to represent herself (pro se) despite having advisory attorneys present, and how this decision led to one of the fastest guilty verdicts in recent Arizona criminal history. The packed courtroom included Brandon Boudreaux and his wife Jenny, Kay Vallow Woodcock (Charles Vallow's sister), and Colby Ryan (Tylee's brother).

Lori Vallow Daybell GUILTY Verdict in 30 Minutes: Third Murder Conviction Timeline Lori Vallow Daybell found GUILTY of conspiracy to commit murder in just 30 MINUTES of jury deliberation on June 12, 2025. This marks her THIRD murder-related conviction following her Idaho life sentences for killing her children JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and her April 2025 Arizona conviction for conspiring to murder fourth husband Charles Vallow. In this comprehensive breakdown, we analyze the October 2019 attempted murder of Brandon Boudreaux, Lori's niece's ex-husband, who survived a drive-by shooting at his Arizona home. The prosecution's case included damning evidence: modified Jeep with tinted windows and removed back seat, gunshot residue, burner phones, and cell tower data placing conspirators at the scene. Watch as we examine why Lori Vallow Daybell chose to represent herself (pro se) despite having advisory attorneys present, and how this decision led to one of the fastest guilty verdicts in recent Arizona criminal history. The packed courtroom included Brandon Boudreaux and his wife Jenny, Kay Vallow Woodcock (Charles Vallow's sister), and Colby Ryan (Tylee's brother). Judge Justin Beresky scheduled sentencing for BOTH Arizona conspiracy convictions on July 25, 2025, from 9:00 AM to noon.

Daybell Day 4: Judge Orders FORCE to Drag Lori Vallow Daybell to Court!  The Lori Vallow Daybell murder trial took an unprecedented turn on June 10, 2025, when court documents revealed that Judge Justin Beresky authorized the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office to use "any means necessary, including force" to ensure the convicted child killer's attendance at her own trial. This explosive development comes after a week of dramatic courtroom chaos that included Vallow Daybell being physically removed from court for arguing with the judge. In this deep-dive analysis, we examine the complete breakdown of courtroom decorum as the so-called "Doomsday Mom" attempts to represent herself while facing conspiracy charges for the attempted murder of Brandon Boudreaux, her former nephew-in-law. Already serving three consecutive life sentences for murdering her children JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, plus conspiring to kill Chad Daybell's first wife Tammy, Vallow Daybell now faces additional charges that could extend her imprisonment. We break down the shocking pattern of manipulation tactics, including her strategic "illnesses" that mysteriously appear when proceedings don't go her way, her confrontational exchanges with Judge Beresky, and the moment he ordered deputies to remove her from the courtroom after she accused him of yelling at her. Former juror testimonies reveal her inappropriate smiling and laughing during murder proceedings, painting a disturbing picture of a defendant completely detached from reality. This video includes exclusive analysis of court transcripts, body language breakdowns, and expert commentary on the legal implications of self-representation in capital cases. We explore the psychological profile of a defendant who convinced followers her children were "zombies" possessed by dark spirits, and now attempts to manipulate the justice system itself. The cost to Arizona taxpayers has exceeded $85,000 for this spectacle, as Vallow Daybell continues to delay proceedings with theatrical sick days and baseless motions. Whether you're following the Lori Vallow Daybell case closely or just discovering this shocking true crime saga, this video provides comprehensive coverage of the latest developments in one of America's most disturbing murder cases. The intersection of religious extremism, family annihilation, and courtroom drama creates a true crime story unlike any other. #LoriVallowDaybell #DoomsdayMom #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CourtroomDrama #JJVallow #TyleeRyan #ChadDaybell #ArizonaTrial #CultMom Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Day 3 of Lori Vallow Daybell's final murder conspiracy trial revealed devastating digital evidence that could seal her fate forever. Detective Ryan Pillar's explosive testimony exposed how Alex Cox's burner phone created an electronic trail leading directly to the attempted assassination of Brandon Boudreaux on October 2, 2019. This comprehensive analysis breaks down the most damning evidence presented in Phoenix Superior Court, including cell phone records that place Lori and Alex in direct communication during the shooting, vehicle modifications that transformed a Jeep into a mobile hunting platform, and post-crime Google searches that reveal consciousness of guilt. We examine how Brandon Boudreaux immediately identified his attackers, the sophisticated planning behind the failed murder attempt, and Lori's controversial decision to represent herself in court. The forensic evidence is staggering: gunshot residue throughout the Jeep's interior, DNA evidence on multiple surfaces, license plate reader data tracking the vehicle's journey from Idaho to Arizona, and surveillance footage of the defendants removing evidence from storage units. Detective Pillar's testimony revealed Alex Cox's extensive preparation, including researching Brandon's address, studying shooting ranges, calculating trajectory angles, and mapping escape routes. Lori Vallow Daybell's cross-examination strategy exposed genuine investigative gaps while simultaneously demonstrating her understanding of criminal procedure. Her questioning highlighted untested glass fragments, missing bullet casings, absent surveillance footage, and transcription errors in witness interviews. However, her post-shooting internet searches for "man shot in gilbert az" and attempts to track news coverage reveal a defendant aware of and concerned about the crime's outcome. This attempted murder represents the final piece in a broader conspiracy that allegedly eliminated anyone Lori and Chad Daybell viewed as obstacles to their apocalyptic plans. Already serving life sentences for murdering her children JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, plus conspiracy to murder husband Charles Vallow, this trial marks Lori's last chance to face accountability for the full scope of her alleged crimes. The psychological implications are profound: a mother representing herself in court while facing charges for systematically eliminating family members who opposed her doomsday beliefs. We analyze the courtroom dynamics, Judge Justin Beresky's attempts to maintain order after Friday's dramatic removal, and the prosecution's methodical presentation of circumstantial evidence that builds an overwhelming case for premeditated conspiracy. #LoriVallow #DoomsdayMom #TrueCrime #BrandonBoudreaux #MurderTrial #AlexCox #ChadDaybell #CellPhoneEvidence #ForensicEvidence #CourtAnalysis    Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

10 DISTURBING Moments From Lori Vallow Daybell's Jury Selection The Lori Vallow Daybell trial took a bizarre turn on June 4th, 2025, when the convicted child killer known as the 'Doomsday Mom' attempted to delay her final murder conspiracy trial by claiming illness and appearing in a wheelchair. This comprehensive breakdown reveals the ten most disturbing moments from her jury selection process, including how Judge Justin Beresky called out her manipulation tactics and forced the trial to proceed. From 295 potential jurors being whittled down to just 66 qualified candidates, to Vallow Daybell mysteriously recovering from her 'illness' when ordered to participate, this case continues to demonstrate the psychological manipulation tactics that made her one of America's most notorious female killers. We analyze the courtroom psychology, legal strategies, and the challenges of finding impartial jurors for someone already serving multiple life sentences for murdering her children Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow, plus conspiracy charges in the deaths of her husband Charles Vallow and Chad Daybell's wife Tammy. This Arizona trial focuses on the alleged conspiracy to murder Brandon Boudreaux, her former nephew-in-law, representing the final chapter in a multi-state killing spree driven by extremist doomsday beliefs. Expert analysis reveals how Vallow Daybell's self-representation strategy may be her last attempt to control a narrative that has already resulted in multiple murder convictions and life sentences." #LoriVallowDaybell #DoomsdayMom #TrueCrime #MurderTrial #CourtDrama #JurySelection #BrandonBoudreaux #ArizonaTrial #CultMom #SerialKiller 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 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?

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.

Convicted murderer Lori Daybell is representing herself as she stands trial for the fatal shooting of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. Her brother, Alex Cox who is also dead, claimed self-defense in the 2019 shooting, but prosecutors say he and Lori conspired to kill him so that she could claim his million-dollar life insurance policy and marry self-proclaimed doomsday prophet and Chad Daybell, who now sits on death row for the murders of Tammy Daybell, Tylee Ryan, and JJ Vallow.

​On April 3, 2024, the third day of Chad Daybell's jury selection in Boise, Idaho, continued with the goal of assembling a pool of 50 potential jurors before proceeding to peremptory challenges. By day's end, 37 individuals had been advanced, marking significant progress toward the required number. The day involved both group and individual questioning, focusing on potential biases, media exposure, and views on the death penalty, as it remains a possible sentence in this case. Several jurors were excused due to hardships, preconceived opinions, or discomfort with the trial's expected graphic evidence. ​Judge Steven Boyce emphasized the importance of impartiality and the ability to adhere strictly to legal instructions. Both the prosecution and defense teams meticulously questioned jurors to ensure they could evaluate evidence objectively, despite extensive media coverage and the trial's anticipated 8 to 10-week duration. The process underscored the challenges of seating an unbiased jury for a high-profile case involving charges of first-degree murder and conspiracy related to the deaths of Tammy Daybell, Tylee Ryan, and Joshua "JJ" Vallow.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

​In May 2021, a grand jury indicted Chad Daybell on multiple charges, including first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder in connection with the deaths of his first wife, Tammy Daybell, and two children, Tylee Ryan and Joshua "JJ" Vallow, who were the offspring of his subsequent spouse, Lori Vallow Daybell. The indictment also encompassed charges of grand theft by deception and insurance fraud, alleging that Daybell and Lori Vallow Daybell orchestrated these deaths to eliminate obstacles to their relationship and to unlawfully acquire life insurance proceeds and Social Security benefits. ​Prosecutors contended that Daybell and Vallow Daybell espoused apocalyptic religious beliefs, which they purportedly used to rationalize the murders. The indictment detailed that the couple viewed the victims as "possessed" or as "zombies," and believed that their deaths were necessary for the salvation of their souls. Furthermore, it was alleged that Daybell increased Tammy Daybell's life insurance policy shortly before her death and subsequently collected the benefits. These actions were presented as evidence of financial motives underpinning the crimes.source:Indictment.pdf (amazonaws.com

Lori Vallow Daybell, already serving life sentences in Idaho for the murders of her two youngest children and the conspiracy to kill her fifth husband's first wife, was back in an Arizona courtroom today. This appearance comes just days before her trial for the alleged murder of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, is set to begin. In a move that has raised eyebrows, Lori has chosen to represent herself in this trial. It's a bold decision, especially considering the gravity of the charges and the complexities of legal proceedings. Representing oneself is akin to performing surgery without medical training—possible, but highly inadvisable. During today's pretrial hearing, several key issues were addressed. One of the primary topics was the status of outstanding discovery requests and the logistics of the upcoming trial. Lori, asserting her readiness, insisted on proceeding with the March 31 trial date, even if it meant her computer forensics expert would be unable to complete his investigation in time. This eagerness to move forward, despite potential disadvantages, adds another layer of intrigue to an already convoluted case. Another point of discussion was Lori's request to exclude certain evidence from the trial. Specifically, she sought to prevent the inclusion of statements made by her late brother, Alex Cox, and her deceased daughter, Tylee Ryan. The prosecution argued against this, stating that Lori should not benefit from the absence of these witnesses, especially given the circumstances surrounding their deaths. The judge ruled that Tylee's statements would be excluded, but Alex Cox's interview at the scene would be admissible. Adding to the courtroom drama, Lori expressed her desire to call reporter Nate Eaton as a witness. Eaton has extensively covered Lori's previous trials, and his potential testimony could provide unique insights or raise questions about media coverage influencing public perception. Lori also hinted at the possibility of testifying in her own defense. Such a move would open her up to cross-examination, potentially revealing more about her beliefs and actions leading up to the alleged crimes. In a separate but related development, the court addressed the issue of media coverage during the trial. Lori had filed a motion to exclude cameras from the courtroom, citing concerns over privacy and the potential for media bias. However, the judge ruled against her request, allowing a single pool camera to provide a livestream of the proceedings, with certain restrictions to protect the integrity of the trial. As jury selection approaches on March 31, the court plans to send an e-questionnaire to 200 potential jurors. This step aims to identify any biases or preconceived notions about the case, ensuring a fair and impartial jury is selected. Lori's legal journey in Arizona doesn't end with this trial. She is also scheduled to face charges related to the attempted murder of her niece's ex-husband, Brandon Boudreaux. However, no trial date has been set for that case yet. The upcoming trial promises to be a focal point for both legal professionals and the public, given the sensational nature of the allegations and Lori's previous convictions. As the proceedings unfold, many will be watching closely to see how Lori navigates the challenges of representing herself and what revelations may come to light in the courtroom. #LoriVallowDaybell #ArizonaTrial #TrueCrime #CourtroomDrama Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The Unraveling of Lori Vallow Daybell Lori Vallow Daybell has spent years spinning her own version of events, but in an Arizona courtroom on Tuesday, the judge wasn't buying it. Already convicted and sentenced to life in prison for the murders of her two children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and for conspiring to kill her husband's first wife, Tammy Daybell, Lori is now facing more charges—this time in Arizona. She's accused of murdering her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, and conspiring to kill her niece's ex-husband, Brandon Boudreaux. And if Tuesday's hearing was any indication, things aren't exactly going in her favor. Lori, representing herself, started by asking the judge to ban cameras from the courtroom, arguing that the media coverage of her case has been “inherently prejudicial.” She specifically called out Court TV, claiming their coverage has falsely shaped public perception and turned her into some kind of spectacle. Judge Justin Beresky listened but made it clear he was leaning toward allowing a single camera with restrictions—no zooming in on notes, just a straightforward courtroom feed. Then Lori moved on to jury selection, requesting that potential jurors be questioned individually instead of in groups. She claimed her previous trial in Idaho required screening nearly 2,000 jurors and worried that people would try to get on this jury just for the attention. The judge didn't seem convinced that a change was necessary but took her concerns under advisement. One of the biggest blows to Lori's defense came when she tried to introduce statements from her brother, Alex Cox, as evidence. Cox, who shot and killed Charles Vallow in 2019, initially claimed self-defense, but Lori wanted his statements admitted in court. The judge shut that down quickly, ruling that not only were the statements hearsay, but Lori—having been convicted of conspiring in Cox's actions—was legally prohibited from using his words as evidence in her defense. Lori also pushed for additional evidence from the prosecution, demanding access to certain police recordings and conversations that she claimed exist. The judge told prosecutors to check again but made it clear that if they said they didn't have the material, he couldn't force them to produce it. Then came the issue of time. With jury selection set for March 31, Lori reminded the court that her speedy trial deadline was May 11 and insisted that the trial needed to move forward within that time frame. But Judge Beresky overruled her, waiving the deadline over her objection and pointing out that both sides had acknowledged the impossibility of trying two complex cases at once. The next hearing is set for March 18, where both sides will argue over remaining issues, including whether Lori can bring in a digital forensics expert for her defense. But after Tuesday's hearing, one thing is clear—Lori may be running the show in her own mind, but in court, she's losing control fast. #LoriVallow #DoomsdayMom #TrueCrime #Justice Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Lori Vallow Speaks: A Dateline Interview Like No Other Imagine a story where two people, driven by extreme beliefs and personal desires, commit unthinkable acts against their own families. This is the chilling tale of Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell, a couple whose actions shocked the nation. Lori Vallow was once known as a devoted mother and active member of her community. However, her life took a dark turn when she met Chad Daybell in 2018 at a religious conference in Utah. Chad, a self-published author of doomsday-themed novels, claimed to have had near-death experiences that allowed him to see into the past and future. He believed he could identify "dark" spirits or "zombies" inhabiting people's bodies, labeling them as such before they were killed. Their meeting was described by Lori as "amazing," stating, "I recognized him spiritually, and he recognized me spiritually, that we had known each other for eternities."  Their connection quickly deepened, leading to an affair. At the time, both were married—Lori to Charles Vallow and Chad to Tammy Daybell. Charles, sensing something was amiss, filed for divorce and expressed concerns about Lori's mental state. He told authorities that Lori believed she was a "resurrected being" and a god, warning them of potential danger to himself and their children. In July 2019, Charles Vallow was shot and killed by Lori's brother, Alex Cox, who claimed self-defense. Cox, described by investigators as a "cold-blooded killer," was deeply devoted to his sister and allegedly willing to do anything for her and Chad. Just months later, in October 2019, Chad's wife, Tammy Daybell, was found dead in their home. Initially deemed natural causes, suspicions arose when Chad and Lori married merely weeks after Tammy's death. An exhumation and autopsy later revealed Tammy had died by asphyxiation. The most heart-wrenching aspect of this saga involves Lori's two children: 16-year-old Tylee Ryan and 7-year-old Joshua "JJ" Vallow. They were last seen in September 2019. Despite family members' concerns and law enforcement's efforts, Lori remained evasive about their whereabouts. In June 2020, their remains were discovered buried on Chad Daybell's property in Idaho. Tylee had been dismembered and burned, while JJ was found in a pet cemetery. Throughout this period, Lori and Chad's beliefs became increasingly extreme. They viewed certain individuals, including their own family members, as possessed or replaced by dark spirits. This warped perspective, combined with desires for financial gain—such as life insurance payouts—and their relationship, culminated in these tragic events. In 2023, Lori Vallow was convicted of the murders of her children and conspiracy to commit murder in Tammy Daybell's death. She was sentenced to multiple life terms without the possibility of parole. Chad Daybell faced his own trial in 2024 and was convicted on all counts, receiving a death sentence. Despite the overwhelming evidence and their convictions, Lori remains unrepentant. In a recent jailhouse interview with NBC's Keith Morrison, she expressed confidence that she and Chad would be exonerated, claiming that Jesus had shown her visions of their future freedom. She even suggested that after her exoneration, she might appear on "Dancing With the Stars," inviting Morrison to join her. Morrison described the 90-minute interview as "exhausting," noting that Lori was determined to tell her own version of events, which did not align with established facts. She frequently challenged Morrison's questions, asking, "Where'd you hear that? Keith, who told you that?"    This case serves as a stark reminder of how extreme beliefs, when combined with personal desires, can lead to devastating consequences. The tragic loss of innocent lives and the subsequent trials have left an indelible mark on all those involved. #DoomsdayCouple #VallowDaybellCase #TrueCrime #JusticeServed Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Keith Morrison has spoken with dozens of inmates over his career, but nothing comes close to his jailhouse interview with Lori Vallow Daybell. Not in sheer strangeness, not in frustration, and certainly not in the way she seemed completely at ease sitting across from him, spinning a story that defied both logic and reality. It took years for Morrison and his team to secure the interview. Letters, emails, and persistence finally paid off when Daybell agreed to sit down with him in Maricopa County Jail. Ninety minutes. That was the time they were granted. And Morrison, a seasoned journalist, thought that would be more than enough. But it wasn't. From the moment she walked into the room, it was clear that Daybell was not there to confess or clarify. She winked at the camera, her demeanor unsettlingly upbeat for someone convicted of the murders of her two youngest children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, along with Chad Daybell's former wife, Tammy Daybell. She's already serving a life sentence in Idaho, and another trial looms in Arizona for the death of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. Yet, none of that seemed to weigh on her. Instead, she took control of the interview, redirecting, deflecting, and challenging Morrison at every turn. “Get your facts straight, Keith,” she chided him more than once, as if she were the one in charge of setting the record straight. “I thought we were going to be friends, Keith.” There was an unsettling rhythm to her words, a performative quality, like she had rehearsed these lines in her head long before the cameras started rolling. Morrison, no stranger to manipulative interview subjects, saw right through it. She had an agenda, and it wasn't to tell the truth. It was to tell her truth—the one that lives inside her head, untouched by facts or evidence. The chore, as Morrison described it, was to pull her off that well-rehearsed train track and into a place where reality mattered. But Lori wasn't having it. She danced around questions, throwing out a sprawling, convoluted narrative that he likened to a shaggy dog story—a long-winded, winding tale designed to eat up time and avoid the hard questions. “She's no dummy,” Morrison admitted. “She knew exactly what she was doing.” And what she was doing was making sure the focus remained on the illusion she had created, not on the brutal, undeniable facts of what happened to her children. But here's the thing—Lori Vallow Daybell isn't just delusional. She's charismatic. That's what makes her dangerous. That's what made people follow her. It's easy to think of cult leaders as fringe weirdos, but they're rarely that obvious. They're likable. Persuasive. Charming. Morrison could see it. She smiled. She laughed. She joked. She exuded confidence. She didn't see herself as mentally ill, though multiple evaluations declared her incompetent for trial before she was finally deemed fit. No, in her mind, she is right. And everyone else? They just don't understand. That charm, that ability to manipulate, is exactly how she convinced people to go along with her apocalyptic beliefs, her “vision” of who was light and who was dark. And when people—children included—were labeled dark, well, we know what happened next. By the end of the interview, Morrison was mentally exhausted. She had drained him, just as she had drained everyone who tried to pin her down with the truth. When the cameras stopped rolling, she smiled and told him he'd have to come back if he wanted to ask anything else. He walked out thinking, I never want to do that again. But almost immediately, he knew he would. Because that's what Lori Vallow Daybell does. She lures people in. Even those who know exactly what she is. The two-hour Dateline special will feature Morrison's full interview with Daybell, as well as conversations with law enforcement, legal experts, and her surviving son, Colby Ryan, who has spent years trying to rebuild his life in the aftermath of his mother's crimes. It airs Friday at 8 p.m. MST on NBC and will be available for streaming on Peacock the next day. #LoriVallow #Dateline #TrueCrime #KeithMorrison Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
