Opening statements are expected today in the trial of an alleged leader of a “doomsday” cult charged with murdering his wife’s two children in a killing that transfixed America.
Sci-fi author Chad Daybell is rumoured to have gathered followers through his Mormon-inspired books about the apocalypse – including his wife Lori Vallow.
He is accused of murdering two of Vallow’s children – Joshua “JJ” Vallow, 7, and his sister Tylee Ryan, 16 – as well as his ex-wife Tammy.
The killings of the children sparked a months-long search and gripped news audiences across the US. If convicted in the trial, which is expected to hear opening statements on Wednesday, Daybell could face the death penalty.
