Lori Vallow: ‘Doomsday Mom’ family members speak up
The fate of “doomsday cult mom” Lori Vallow remains in the hands of the jury as her remarkable murder trial wanes.
Closing arguments concluded in Ada County Courthouse, Boise, Idaho, and the jury of 7 males and 5 ladies started considerations on Thursday afternoon prior to concluding 4 hours later on.
While the judge prohibited electronic cameras from the courtroom, the hotly-anticipated decision will be livestreamed.
Ms Vallow, 49, is charged with first-degree murder, conspiracy, and grand theft over the deaths of her child Tylee Ryan, 16, boy Joshua “JJ” Vallow, 7, and her brand-new spouse Chad Daybell’s very first better half Tammy Daybell, 49.
Tylee and JJ were last seen in September 2019. In June 2020, their remains were discovered buried on the Daybell property. Tammy passed away one month after their disappearance in October 2019.
Over the last 6 weeks, district attorneys set out their case that Ms Vallow conspired with Mr Daybell and her bro Alex Cox to eliminate the 3 victims – as part of their end ofthe world cult beliefs and greed.
Ms Vallow, on the other hand, made the shock choice not to provide any defence in the trial. Instead, switching on Mr Daybell by means of her lawyer throughout closing arguments.
