ID v. Lori Vallow Daybell: Doomsday Cult Mom Trial
Published By admin with Comments 0
BOISE, Idaho (Court TV) — Lori Vallow Daybell is facing life in prison if convicted of murdering her two children and conspiring to kill her fifth husband’s previous wife.
The so-called ‘Doomsday Cult Mom’ has pleaded not guilty to six charges in Idaho, including two counts of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder.
An indictment accuses Vallow Daybell and Chad Daybell of espousing religious beliefs to justify the Sept. 2019 murders of 16-year-old Tylee Ryan and 7-year-old “JJ” Vallow and the Oct. 2019 murder of Tammy Daybell. Vallow Daybell is also accused of grand theft by deception for allegedly pocketing her children’s Social Security benefits after their deaths.
JJ and Tylee’s remains were found on Daybell’s property in June 2020, several months after JJ’s grandmother contacted police looking for him. By then, Vallow Daybell was sitting in an Idaho jail on charges stemming from the children’s disappearance. She was arrested in Hawaii in Feb. 2020, where she and Daybell had relocated amid a cloud of suspicion.
