PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) — Neighbors of Chad and Tammy Daybell testified Tuesday the day they first met Lori Vallow, Chad and Lori told them Lori’s daughter had recently passed away. According to the neighbors, Todd and Alice Gilbert, this conversation occurred at the end of October 2019, eight months before the remains of Lori’s two children were discovered, buried on Chad’s property.
“We asked her if she had any children, and she’d said that she had many,” said Todd. “And then Chad spoke up and said that she had a daughter that just passed on,” he said. “I told her, ‘Oh, I’m sorry.’ And she said, ‘Thank you,’” said Alice Gilbert.
At that time, Lori was telling relatives and friends that she was hiding JJ and Tylee from people who wanted to harm them or that Tylee was attending college. Lori’s mother and sister told Arizona’s Family that Lori said she was protecting the children.
Chad is charged with Tammy’s death. However, the Utah State Medical Examiner testified that Tammy died from asphyxiation and that bruising on her body was consistent with her being restrained.
The Gilberts told the jury that one week after Tammy’s death, Chad told them he had a new girlfriend he intended to marry. They said they were surprised that Chad was moving on so quickly. They said they met Lori shortly afterward and that she told them her husband had died of a heart attack in December 2018. In reality, Lori’s husband, Charles Vallow, was shot and killed in Chandler four months before.
