JOSHUA "JJ" VALLOW, TYLEE RYAN, TAMMY DAYBELL, & CHARLES VALLOW: State of Idaho/Arizona vs. Lori & Chad Daybell *GUILTY*

1580704661510.png

Police seem to be no closer to finding 7-year-old Joshua “JJ” Vallow and 17-year-old Tylee Ryan than they were when this story began months ago.

Since that time, the story has gained international attention as it’s taken twists and turns involving a purported cult, dead spouses, delusions of divinity and preparing for the end of the world. Despite all the angles, and the ever-growing number of people related to the case, the facts remain essentially the same as when it was first announced.

The two children remain missing and the parents, Lori (Vallow) Daybell, and her new husband, Chad Daybell, refuse to disclose their whereabouts to police. Both have been named persons of interest in the disappearance of the children. Law enforcement is also investigating the deaths of the Daybells’ previous respective spouses, Charles Vallow and Tammy Daybell, though neither Chad nor Lori have been named suspects in those cases.

Written timeline of events

Ah I managed to copy the report after all. I wonder if they are going to attempt to settle? Eg admit to conspiracy and blame Alex?

Note “The attorneys … will not record the conversations and will not use the conversations as evidence. The conversations can be deemed as for settlement purposes only,” Archibald wrote.

#daybell #eastidahonews #crime ST. ANTHONY — Lori Vallow Daybell says her children died in her brother’s apartment, she wants to meet with her husband for “strategy sessions” and she believes she does not qualify for the death penalty. That’s according to several new motions filed by her attorneys within the past week. Daybell and her husband Chad Daybell are charged with multiple counts of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder for the deaths of 7-year-old Joshua “JJ” Vallow and 16-year-old Tylee Ryan – two of Lori’s children – along with Chad’s previous wife, Tammy Daybell. If found guilty, they could face the death penalty. The couple is scheduled to be tried together this spring. Before it begins, Lori wants permission from District Judge Steven Boyce to communicate with Chad. “With settlement proposals, mediation, motions and trial fast approaching, Lori and Chad would like to be able to talk together in person and on the phone about their options,” Jim Archibald, Lori’s attorney, wrote in a motion. The couple was married in Hawaii on Nov. 5, 2019, and Lori was arrested the following February. Archibald noted she spoke with Chad on multiple recorded jail phone calls until he was arrested on June 9, 2020. Since then, they have only talked to each other one time, according to Archibald. It was on an arranged call in July 2022 between Chad, Lori and their attorneys. “The call was approved by the prosecuting attorney and sheriff and was not recorded,” Archibald said. If Boyce approves the motion, Archibald says he and co-counsel John Thomas will attend in-person meetings and phone conversations, along with John Prior, Chad’s attorney. “The attorneys … will not record the conversations and will not use the conversations as evidence. The conversations can be deemed as for settlement purposes only,” Archibald wrote. Notice of alibi and constitutionality of death penalty In a separate two-paragraph notice of alibi, Archibald says Lori was not present when her children and Tammy Daybell died. Police say JJ and Tylee were killed in September 2019. Their remains were found buried on Chad Daybell’s property. Chad’s wife Tammy Daybell died on Oct. 19, 2019. “Lori Vallow was in her own apartment in Rexburg, Idaho, when JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan died in the apartment of (her brother) Alex Cox in Rexburg, Idaho. Defendant was with Melanie Gibb, David Warwick, and/or Chad Daybell,” Archibald wrote. “Lori Vallow was in Hawaii when Tammy Daybell died at the home of Chad Daybell in Salem, Idaho. Defendant was with Melani Boudreaux and/or Audrey Barattiero.” Cox lived in the same complex as Lori when the children died. He died in December 2019, and the medical examiner gave his cause of death as blood clots. RELATED | Who’s who in the Daybell case RELATED | What Alex Cox revealed days before he died and the unusual massage he gave his wife In two separate filings (here and here) addressing the death penalty, Archibald argued prosecutors have not been specific enough in stating why Daybell is eligible for the death penalty. He asks Boyce to declare the death penalty unconstitutional and take it off the table. Chad Daybell motion to continue John Prior, Chad Daybell’s attorney, also filed an 18-page motion asking Boyce to reschedule the trial for April 2024. Prior said he still needs a substantial amount of time to prepare for the trial and is awaiting further evidence from prosecutors. The deadline for prosecutors to turn over all discovery materials is Feb. 23. “(That date) is less than 40 days before a complex, capital trial is set to begin,” Prior wrote. “The (current) timeline does not permit a review of all evidence, consultation with appropriate experts, independent examinations, and consideration of potential legal claims and challenges.” What’s next The motions will be heard in front of Boyce on Jan. 19 in Fremont County along with a motion from prosecutors to sequester the jury. Additional hearings are scheduled in February and March before the trial is set to begin April 3 in Ada County.

I'll be very surprised if this case goes to trial this year. :sigh:
 
It seems to me that these attorneys need to think about the fact it's their duty to put their client first, not take crazed chances like trying to hold a group co defendant strategy session. That could backfire on either side.
With the co-defendants being allowed to meet, wouldn't it just give them opportunities to "get their respective stories straight". If the co defendants were the same sex and in the same prison I guess they would have ample time to meet and discuss, so maybe it is not so unusual as we think it is. If they were bailed they could see each other too right?
 
I'm not sure, either. But it makes sense that if they are going to be tried together, they should be able to meet with each other along with their attorneys to discuss their defense.

From a common sense standpoint it would seem that they shouldn't be able to do that. However, they're being tried together, so maybe it will be.

I think they'd separate them by putting them in different jails.
 

Originally published Jan. 16 on KTVB.COM.
Prosecutors in the murder case against Lori Vallow and her husband Chad Daybell say they have sufficient evidence to prove that the death penalty is warranted — calling the facts in the case "egregious and heinous."

That's one of the prosecution's responses to defense motions in the case of the eastern Idaho couple charged with murder and conspiracy to commit the murders of two children, Joshua "JJ" Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and Chad Daybell's late wife, Tammy Daybell.

Lori Vallow's motion to declare her "not death eligible" will get a hearing on Thursday, along with a motion asking the court to allow the two defendants to meet face-to-face, with their lawyers present, to talk about their options. Also up for a hearing Thursday is whether the jury should be sequestered during the trial, which is currently scheduled to begin April 3 in Ada County. The motion hearing will take place with Seventh District Judge Steven Boyce in Fremont County, where the case originated, but the trial scheduled for April is being moved out of eastern Idaho under a change of venue Boyce granted in October 2021.

In documents filed Jan. 12, the prosecution objected to Lori Vallow's request to speak to Chad Daybell ahead of trial because they have concerns about safety and protecting the privilege of the case.

Lori Vallow's attorney previously asked the court to scrap the death penalty after filing a motion to have a judge declare it unconstitutional, as well as not having enough to prove the death penalty was even warranted.

Prosecutors filed an objection to this on Jan. 12, saying they have enough evidence to prove the death penalty is needed in this case.

Why is she afraid of the death penalty? She didn't seem to mind giving out the same orders for HER OWN CHILDREN!
