Lori Vallow Speaks: A Dateline Interview Like No Other 16:45

17 minutes назад16:45

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?

Inside Lori Vallow’s Mind Psychotherapist Breaks Down Her Dateline Interview 22:11

What does it take for someone to completely detach from reality? Apparently, not much if you're Lori Vallow Daybell. Fresh off her first-ever on-camera interview, she's still doubling down on her delusions, claiming Jesus personally assured her she and Chad would be exonerated. Because, you know, visions trump a life sentence and a guilty verdict. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins the discussion, breaking down how Lori's unwavering belief system isn’t just a stubborn personality trait—it's likely the result of a rare and severe delusional disorder. Could this have been avoided if she’d never crossed paths with Chad Daybell, or was this path inevitable? And what about Alex Cox—was he suffering from the same disorder, or just a dangerously devoted follower? When two people’s delusions feed off each other, where does the manipulation end and the madness begin? #LoriVallow #TrueCrime #PsychologyOfEvil #ChadDaybell #HiddenKillers #DelusionalDisorder #CultMindset Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Lori Vallow Speaks Out What Her Dateline Interview Reveals About Her Defense 17:58

19 hours назад17:58

17:58

What happens when someone convicted of murder still thinks they're going to walk free? Well, if you're Lori Vallow-Daybell, you go on Dateline and tell Keith Morrison that Jesus showed you a future where you're not in prison. Yep, that's exactly what she did in a shocking jailhouse interview, where she doubled down on her innocence, dismissed reality, and claimed divine visions of her exoneration—despite the whole "mountains of evidence and a life sentence" situation. Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski to break down this bizarre interview, the legal circus that is Vallow-Daybell representing herself, and whether her courtroom antics could actually play into the prosecution’s hands. Could her behavior be an unofficial insanity defense, even in a state that doesn’t recognize it? Will the judge have the patience of a saint or cut her off when the "metaphysical arguments" start flying? And let’s be real—can the prosecution just sit back and let her dig her own grave? One thing's for sure: this trial is going to be a spectacle. But is there any legal strategy here, or is it just another chapter in Lori Vallow-Daybell’s delusional saga? #LoriVallow #TrueCrime #Dateline #CourtroomDrama #LegalAnalysis #HiddenKillers #CrimePodcast Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Lori Vallow Daybell The Interview That Changed Everything 16:25

23 hours назад16:25

16:25

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?

PART FOUR: EXPOSURE AND CONSEQUENCES At some point, reality catches up with delusion. For Chad and Lori, that moment came when their doomsday prophecy failed, the bodies were found, and the world demanded answers. This episode follows the unraveling of their belief system , from the moment their July 2020 doomsday prediction never came true to the mounting pressure from law enforcement and national media. Lori’s chilling lack of emotion after her children disappeared and her refusal to cooperate with investigators only fueled the fire. Chad, once seen as a spiritual leader , suddenly found himself a fugitive, his so-called prophetic status crumbling under legal scrutiny. Through court testimonies, expert breakdowns, and official LDS responses , we explore how justice was finally served. Chad and Lori’s religious justifications were torn apart in court , and their former followers turned against them. The trial exposed the full extent of their manipulation, their self-serving doctrine, and the horrifying reality of what they had done in the name of their so-called divine mission. This wasn’t just a story about a crime—it was a case study in radicalization, cult psychology, and the dangers of unchecked belief. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Breaking Down The Beliefs of Chad & Lori Vallow Daybell Part 3: Running A Cult PART THREE: PRACTICES AND ESCALATION Chad and Lori weren’t just theorizing about the apocalypse—they were actively preparing for it . This episode takes you inside the cult-like rituals that cemented their control over their small but devoted group of followers. From prayer circles and casting ceremonies to exorcisms meant to drive out “dark spirits,” we reveal the manipulative practices they used to create an unshakable belief system where questioning was not allowed. Once Chad and Lori had their followers’ trust, the next step was eliminating the obstacles —anyone who didn’t fit into their end-times prophecy. Their doctrine of “zombies” and demonic possession became a convenient excuse to justify murder . When Chad prophesied that his wife Tammy would soon die, she did. When Lori declared her own children were no longer “themselves,” they vanished. Through chilling text messages, firsthand testimonies, and expert psychological analysis , we examine how Lori and Chad stripped away their moral inhibitions . By the time law enforcement caught on, the body count was growing. What made them believe that murder was righteous? And how did their manipulation techniques turn everyday people into accomplices?

Breaking Down The Beliefs of Chad & Lori Vallow Daybell Part 2 The Doom & Gloom CORE TENETS OF THEIR RELIGION Once Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow believed they were chosen by God , their doctrine evolved into a radical, self-serving theology that justified their crimes . In this episode, we break down the specific tenets of their belief system , from Chad’s doomsday timelines predicting the world would end in July 2020 to the twisted reincarnation doctrine known as “multiple mortal probations.” Their obsession with end-times prophecy was fueled by LDS tent-city survivalist movements , where members believed they would be called to gather in safe zones before the world collapsed . But Chad and Lori took it further, convincing themselves that some souls were no longer human at all . Through their bizarre “light vs. dark” ranking system , they determined who was “worthy” to move forward—and who had become a zombie that needed to be eliminated. We also explore their belief in divine powers , including Lori’s claim that she was immortal and Chad’s so-called spiritual portal . These doctrines weren’t just harmless religious speculation —they were the foundation of a doomsday cult that led to multiple murders . How did Chad and Lori justify their actions as part of their divine mission? And what happens when a prophecy fails but the believers refuse to accept it?

DAYBELL MURDERS: The Case Against Lori Vallow & Chad Daybell

The Law of Lori Exoneration or Delusion 18:21

6 дней назад18:21

18:21

The Law of Lori Exoneration or Delusion Lori Vallow Daybell says she will be exonerated. Not maybe. Not possibly. She is certain. And she’s saying this from behind bars, awaiting trial for the murder of her fourth husband, while her current husband sits on death row. If there’s one thing Lori has always had, it’s confidence—whether it’s in her bizarre religious beliefs, her devotion to Chad Daybell, or her ability to deny reality even when it's staring her in the face. This week, she sat down with NBC’s Keith Morrison for what’s being described as an “extensive and often combative” interview. And if there’s anyone who can handle combative, it’s Keith Morrison. The full special is set to air on 'Dateline,' where Lori, dressed in an orange jumpsuit and purple handcuffs, tells the world exactly what she wants them to believe. She’s going to be exonerated. Not only that—she’s seen the future, and in that future, she and Chad are free. She claims Jesus himself showed her this vision when she was in heaven. Now, most people who claim to see heaven aren’t sitting in a jail cell convicted of murdering their own children, but then again, Lori has never been like most people. Lori was sentenced to life in prison in 2023 for the murders of her two youngest children, 7-year-old JJ Vallow and 16-year-old Tylee Ryan, as well as for the murder of Chad Daybell’s first wife, Tammy Daybell. The details of those crimes were horrifying—JJ and Tylee’s bodies were found buried on Chad’s Idaho property, their remains showing the unthinkable levels of brutality they endured. Tammy’s death, originally ruled natural, was later determined to be a homicide. Chad was convicted of the same crimes. His fate, however, was different. In 2024, he was sentenced to death. The man Lori still refers to as her eternal husband is now waiting for his execution date while she sits in an Arizona jail, awaiting trial for yet another murder—that of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. Charles had long suspected Lori’s descent into religious extremism was dangerous. He tried to get help, to warn people. Then one day, in July 2019, he was shot dead by Lori’s brother, Alex Cox, who conveniently died later that same year, taking any potential confessions with him. Lori, undeterred by any of this, is still talking. In the upcoming 'Dateline' special, she’s not just giving her side—she’s doubling down. It’s not a confession, and it’s certainly not remorse. It’s Lori being Lori. Believing that no matter what happens, she’s special. She’s chosen. The rules don’t apply to her. The special also features interviews with key figures in the case, including Rexburg police detective Ray Hermosillo, Madison County Sheriff Ron Ball, Madison County prosecutor Rob Wood, retired FBI agent Douglas Hart, and journalist Nate Eaton, who has covered the case from the beginning. But the voice that carries the most weight belongs to Lori’s eldest son, Colby Ryan. Colby, the only surviving child of Lori’s, has watched as the mother he once knew disappeared into a twisted world of doomsday prophecies and murder. And in his interview, he doesn’t hold back. He describes how the way his sister was treated, even after her death, was so depraved it changed the way he sees people altogether. And he’s right—because what happened to Tylee wasn’t just a murder. It was something that defies humanity. This will be the seventh 'Dateline' episode dedicated to Lori and Chad, and if history is any indication, it won’t be the last. The fascination with this case isn’t just about crime—it’s about belief. About how two people could convince themselves they were on some divine mission while leaving behind a trail of destruction. For those who still can’t wrap their heads around how any of this happened, 'Dateline' might provide some answers—or at least another look into the mind of a woman who remains convinced she’s destined for something greater than a prison cell. 'Law of the land' says she’s guilty. 'Law of Lori' says she’s getting out. #LoriVallowDaybell #Dateline #TrueCrime #ChadDaybell Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

ORIGINS & BELIEF DEVELOPMENT The story of Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow didn’t start with murder—it started with faith twisted into fanaticism. In this episode, we explore the LDS Church’s core beliefs, how mainstream Mormonism views prophecy and the Second Coming, and how Chad and Lori veered from religious devotion into dangerous extremism. Chad’s near-death experiences convinced him he had access to divine knowledge, while Lori’s obsession with end-times prophecy led her to believe she was a goddess chosen to gather the righteous. How did a simple belief in personal revelation and spiritual preparedness turn into an apocalyptic worldview that justified murder? We break down Chad’s early writings, his rise in LDS prepping circles, and how fiction became fact in his mind. We also examine Lori’s transformation from a devoted Mormon mother to a self-proclaimed leader of the 144,000. By tracking their path from faith to fanaticism, we expose the psychological and religious factors that led them to classify people as “light” or “dark,” ultimately determining who lived and who died.

DAYBELL MURDERS: The Case Against Lori Vallow & Chad Daybell

Lori Vallow Daybell Wants Court TV Cameras Out Her Trial... Claims Slander 13:41

Lori Vallow Daybell Wants Court TV Cameras Out Her Trial... Claims Slander Lori Vallow Daybell, convicted murderer and self-proclaimed prophet, is gearing up for another courtroom battle, this time in Arizona. And in true Vallow fashion, she’s already trying to control the narrative. Representing herself, she’s filed an objection with the Maricopa County Superior Court, demanding that Court TV be banned from streaming the proceedings. Her reasoning? She claims the network is profiting off her tragedy and misrepresenting her in their coverage. Now, let’s be clear—Court TV is in the business of true crime entertainment. That’s not exactly breaking news. But Vallow’s sudden concern for journalistic integrity is ironic, to say the least, considering she’s been at the center of a twisted saga of deception, manipulation, and murder. Vallow alleges that the network has used her and her husband, Chad Daybell, in promotional materials that have "falsely characterized, libeled, and slandered" them. That’s quite a claim coming from someone who has already been convicted of killing two of her own children, along with her husband's first wife. Daybell, for his part, has been sentenced to death in Idaho for his role in those murders. Chicago-based attorney Andrew Stoltmann sees right through her play. He believes Vallow is setting the stage for a circus—one where she’s the ringleader. By representing herself, she gains control over courtroom theatrics, with little to lose since she’s already serving a life sentence in Idaho. And if things don’t go her way? Self-representation could set her up for an ineffective counsel argument on appeal. This latest trial stems from a 2021 indictment, in which a grand jury in Arizona charged Vallow with conspiracy to commit murder in the death of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, and attempted murder of her niece’s ex-husband, Brandon Boudreaux. Prosecutors say Charles was shot and killed by Lori’s brother, Alex Cox, in 2019 in what was initially deemed self-defense. But as the bodies started piling up around Lori, investigators took another look. Cox, who conveniently died of an apparent blood clot months later, was also accused of conspiring with his sister in the attempted murder of Boudreaux. It’s all part of a tangled web of so-called "doomsday" beliefs, where Vallow and Daybell convinced themselves—and a select group of followers—that they were chosen by God to prepare for the end times. And in their twisted version of righteousness, getting rid of “dark spirits” meant eliminating people who stood in their way. Of course, the public fascination with this case exploded when the bodies of seven-year-old J.J. Vallow and sixteen-year-old Tylee Ryan were found buried on Daybell’s property in 2020. The children had been missing for months while Vallow and Daybell were off in Hawaii, seemingly unbothered. When authorities finally caught up with them, the excuses were endless. But by the time the trial rolled around, it was clear that no amount of religious justification could explain away the horrors uncovered in Idaho. A jury convicted Vallow on all counts, and in July 2023, she was sentenced to life in prison without parole. At her sentencing, Judge Steven Boyce didn’t hold back. He told Vallow, "You had so many other options. You chose the most evil and destructive path possible." Prosecutors and experts alike have pointed to Vallow’s psychiatric evaluations, which diagnosed her with delusional disorder, hyper-religiosity, and narcissistic tendencies. But none of it was enough to declare her legally insane. Now, as she prepares for her Arizona trial, Vallow has once again been granted a mental health evaluation. But if history is any indicator, she will likely be deemed competent to stand trial—meaning the next chapter of this saga is set to unfold in court on March 31. Despite her best efforts, cameras have been a fixture in this case from the beginning, and this time will likely be no different. Judges have weighed the pros and cons of public trials since O.J. Simpson’s infamous courtroom spectacle, and while some believe transparency is key, others argue that it turns legal proceedings into a performance. If anyone’s likely to take advantage of that, it’s Lori Vallow. Whether or not Court TV gets its live feed, one thing is certain—Vallow’s fight for control won’t stop here. #LoriDaybell #TrueCrime #CourtTV #MurderTrial Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Lori Daybell Takes the Reins in Arizona Court, Representing Herself in High-Profile Murder Trials Convicted murderer Lori Daybell returned to court Friday, asserting her right to represent herself in Arizona as she faces charges for the murder of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, and the attempted murder of her niece’s ex-husband, Brandon Boudreaux. During the hearing in Phoenix, Daybell, already serving life sentences in Idaho for the murders of her two youngest children and her fifth husband’s first wife, stood firm in her decision to self-represent. She clarified to the court that she wishes to be addressed as Lori Daybell, using her fifth husband Chad Daybell’s last name. Chad Daybell was sentenced to death in Idaho for his role in the murders. Prosecutors are preparing for the first trial focusing on Charles Vallow’s murder, with jury selection scheduled for March 31. “The Defense intends on starting trial without delay,” Daybell told the court. Prosecutors anticipate their case-in-chief will take several weeks, depending on how long Daybell, acting as her own attorney, takes to cross-examine witnesses. Judge Justin Beresky acknowledged the complexity of scheduling, noting that a second trial date for the attempted murder of Boudreaux will depend on the duration of the first trial. “It’s hard to set the second one without knowing how long the first one’s going to take,” he said. Daybell made her presence felt in court, hand-filing two motions requesting additional discovery from prosecutors. One motion sought documents related to her extradition from Idaho to Arizona. Judge Beresky denied the motion, stating the materials were not relevant to the current charges. Despite these setbacks, Daybell appeared resolute. Her choice to represent herself, a rare and risky move in high-stakes criminal cases, has drawn significant public attention. Legal analysts have highlighted the challenges she will face, including navigating complex legal procedures and cross-examining witnesses. As her trial date approaches, Daybell’s courtroom maneuvers will undoubtedly remain under intense scrutiny. Her ability to present a coherent defense while grappling with the weight of public opinion and her criminal history may shape the outcome of these proceedings. #LoriDaybell #ArizonaTrial #CharlesVallow #BrandonBoudreaux #SelfRepresentation #TrueCrime #MurderTrial Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Judge Denies Lori Vallow Daybell’s Motion to Dismiss as Arizona Trial Moves Forward 18:28

Judge Denies Lori Vallow Daybell’s Motion to Dismiss as Arizona Trial Moves Forward Lori Vallow Daybell, already convicted and serving a life sentence in Idaho for the murders of her children and conspiring in the death of Tammy Daybell, has been found competent to stand trial in Arizona. She faces charges of conspiracy to commit murder in the death of her former husband, Charles Vallow, and the attempted murder of her ex-nephew-in-law, Brandon Boudreaux. An Arizona judge recently denied her motion to dismiss the case, rejecting her claim that her right to a speedy trial had been violated. The judge ruled that each delay was "indispensable" to the interests of justice, citing the overwhelming volume of evidence, the withdrawal of her original defense team, and competency evaluations as necessary factors that contributed to the trial’s postponements. The trial for Charles Vallow’s murder is now set to begin on February 24, 2025. The attempted murder trial for Boudreaux is expected to follow, provided that Vallow Daybell is prepared for consecutive proceedings. In an unusual legal move, Vallow Daybell has been granted permission to represent herself in Arizona, a decision that could significantly impact the trial’s outcome. With her history of erratic courtroom behavior and refusal to acknowledge wrongdoing, legal experts question how effectively she will be able to defend herself against the serious charges. Vallow Daybell’s legal troubles began when authorities in Idaho uncovered a pattern of deaths connected to her and her husband, Chad Daybell. She was convicted in 2023 for the murders of her two children, 7-year-old Joshua "JJ" Vallow and 16-year-old Tylee Ryan, and for conspiring in the death of Tammy Daybell, Chad’s first wife. Prosecutors argued that she and Chad Daybell were motivated by extreme religious beliefs, labeling their victims as "zombies" who needed to be eliminated. In Arizona, prosecutors allege a similar pattern. Charles Vallow, who had become increasingly concerned about his wife’s growing devotion to Chad Daybell’s apocalyptic teachings, was shot and killed in July 2019. Vallow Daybell’s late brother, Alex Cox, claimed self-defense at the time, but investigators later found inconsistencies in his account. Just months later, in October 2019, Brandon Boudreaux was nearly killed in a drive-by shooting outside his home. He was previously married to Vallow Daybell’s niece, Melani Pawlowski, who had also become deeply involved in the same religious group. Investigators believe Cox was the shooter in that case as well, though he died under mysterious circumstances later that year. As the legal proceedings continue, the families of the victims await justice in a case that has captivated national attention for its disturbing mix of religious extremism, murder, and manipulation. #LoriVallow #TrueCrime #ArizonaTrial #JusticeForJJandTylee #CharlesVallow #DoomsdayCult #MurderTrial Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
