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.

Lori has been watching Kay testify and taking notes. Kay has managed thus far to stay stoic and answer questions (I personally can’t imagine what she is feeling). Defense now asking about Kay’s meetings and con tact with prosecution team.
 
That's it for now. I won't continue to do this, don't have time, etc. or probably won't and all can read at the links, etc. the same and there should be summaries on this case tonight from Nate, HTC, others but I wanted to see and touch on opening statements. And then Kay testifying. Hopefully audio of it will be out in a day or two...
 
They were also charged with conspiracy to commit murder in the death of Chad Daybell's former wife, Tamara Daybell, who died Oct. 19, 2019, less than a month before Lori and Chad married. Chad Daybell was also charged with his former wife's murder.

In court Monday, prosecutors said Tamara Daybell died of asphyxiation. Lori Vallow made a phone call that night, according to prosecutor Lindsay Blake, saying, "He can’t do anything right," referring to her brother, Alex Cox. Lori was in Hawaii on the day of Tammy’s death.

Alex Cox supposedly commented in a phone call, “I hope I am not their fall guy," Blake said during opening statements. Alex Cox died from natural causes on Dec. 12, 2019.

 
Chad slept with Tammy the night she died, right? So there's no reason to think Alex killed her.
Yeah. Apparently they were setting Alex up OR this phone call, where is the proof of it and that this was said(? is maybe the one when Mel G. talked to Alex and he said so they are throwing you under the bus or something like that to HER when Lori tried to claim Mel G had the kids as Mel G reported to him... Speculation is/was Alex had to go because of that remark (and Mel G was likely no longer trusted, we have heard that convo with Chad and Lori she recorded) and/or they felt he was turning on them or not doing right or some such...
 
1:20 p.m. Kay noticed a lot of emails in the account including a confirmation email of an Amazon order that was sent to an address in Rexburg. Kay said after she saw that, she contacted her private investigator and Brandon Boudreaux. Kay then went into the browsing history of the Amazon account and saw searches for a beach wedding dress, a bathing suit, mens large white linen top and pants, and malachite wedding rings. The date of the order was Oct. 2, 2019.

 
A few comments of note from Nate that are a bit different or additional to HTC.

10:19 a.m. A photo is shown of JJ Vallow’s arm wrapped in duct tape after he died and Tammy Daybell’s hands after she died. Blake says those hands will never do anything again — then a photo is shown of Chad and Lori holding hands on the beach in Hawaii.


10:18 a.m. Blake says when you talk about first degree murder, the defendant personally didn’t have to end someone’s life to have committed the crime.


10:15 a.m. Blake: “The defendant is charged with multiple crimes” and then lists each charge. After saying Tylee Ryan’s name, Blake adds, “her daughter.” After saying JJ Vallow’s name, Blake adds, “her son.”


10:13 a.m. Blake says Tammy Daybell died “at the hands of another and died of asphyxiation,” according to Utah medical examiner. After Tammy died, Alex Cox said, “I hope I’m not their fall guy” (referring to Chad and Lori). Alex died the day after he said that.
 
1:20 p.m. Kay noticed a lot of emails in the account including a confirmation email of an Amazon order that was sent to an address in Rexburg. Kay said after she saw that, she contacted her private investigator and Brandon Boudreaux. Kay then went into the browsing history of the Amazon account and saw searches for a beach wedding dress, a bathing suit, mens large white linen top and pants, and malachite wedding rings. The date of the order was Oct. 2, 2019.

Yeah I am looking here and there as doing other things I need to do but she also said it was like Charles gave her his email password or was it google password, etc. I do think when audio is out, llstening to today would be worthwhile... Just to see how all are coming across, prosecution, defense, etc. and Kay's testimony...
 
2:08 p.m. Brandon says on the morning of Oct. 2, 2019, someone shot at him in front of his house. Thomas objects and says this isn’t relevant to the issue at hand. Attorneys now meeting in a sidebar conference with the judge.

What? He can't mention this important piece to the puzzle? Then why have him on the stand?
 
i am not a Twitter person and even though Nate tweets I find his East Idaho News site with his remarks laid out by time the best to follow. Here is part...

10:07 a.m. Blake says after Tammy died, Lori met Chad’s kids and they were “all over each other.” Chad told his kids that Lori had a young daughter who recently died but there was no mention of JJ and Lori never said anything.


10:06 a.m. Kay Woodcock has been staring at Lori for at least three minutes straight.


10:03 a.m. Blake talking about the day a gunman approached Tammy Daybell in her driveway on Oct. 9, 2019. Originally thought to be a paintball gun. Blake says Lori was mad that night after incident — and said/texted someone, “He can’t do anything wrong” referring to Alex. More details on the driveway gun incident here


10:02 a.m. Blake: “The defendant told others because she was translated, she didn’t have to repent.” Blake says when Alex first moved to Rexburg, he texted Lori and set the wifi password to “too many kids.” Lori responded, “Funny.”
 
10 a.m. Blake says we will hear from April Raymond, Lori’s friend, during the trial. “Defendant was telling people she was here on a religious mission to gather the 144,000 so she needed to spend her time and energy there.”


10 a.m. Blake says the defendant took no action when Tylee and JJ disappeared. “What you won’t hear when JJ went missing is that the defendant did anything to find him.”


9:58 a.m. Blake: “Alex’s purpose was to protect Lori. He was a warrior and that was his job.”


9:57 a.m. Blake now talking about Alex Cox and how Alex would do anything for Lori. He moved to Rexburg to be closer to Chad. Alex quit his job – “If Chad and Lori asked it, Alex did it.”


9:56 a.m. Blake: “The defendant used ‘casting’ that involved prayer and energy work. Often this casting didn’t work and the beliefs evolved to zombies. A common theme was the body had to be destroyed.”


9:55 a.m. Blake: “You will hear about a rating system of light and dark. The defendant told others that with the help of Chad, she could rate people as light and dark. Pretty soon this system evolved.” Lori does not appear to look at jury or prosecutors at all – she is looking down.


9:54 a.m. Blake tells jurors they will hear about Chad and Lori’s religious beliefs – that Chad and Lori called themselves “James and Elaina” and believed they were religious figures. “At the time they met, they were both married to other people. Their spouses were both alive and well when they first met. Remember – the defendant will remove any obstacle in her way to get what she wants – and she wanted Chad Daybell.”


9:52 a.m. Blake describes financial transactions that occurred with money being moved from accounts. “This case actually starts in October 2018. That’s when the defendant met Chad Daybell for the very first time.” Blake says jury will hear from Melanie Gibb and Zulema Pastenas during the trial – two of Lori’s friends who were there when Lori and Chad met for the first time.


9:50 a.m. Blake show an autopsy photo of Tammy Daybell as she says Lori and Chad are in Hawaii getting married. “The missing children, the sudden death of Tammy, teh quick marriage of Chad and the defendant left so many questions for those still grieving the loss of Tammy and those still wondering 24/7 about the whereabouts of the children.”


9:49 a.m. Blake describes how JJ was found and on the screen appears a black plastic bag wrapped in plastic and a cut in the bag. Larry Woodcock is wiping away tears and he is distributing tissues to family members. Kay Woodcock is crying.


9:47 a.m. Blake describes how Tylee’s remains were found. “You will hear it described as a mass of bone and tissue. That’s what was left of this beautiful young woman. The defendant’s daughter. Her DNA was found on a pick ax and shovel later located on a shed on Chad’s property.” A picture on the screen shows Tylee’s remains – pieces of flesh and bones.


9:47 a.m. Blake: “Tammy had a life insurance policy. Lori wanted Chad all to herself. Tammy’s gone.”


9:45 a.m. Blake: “JJ took time and he also lost his father. When he lost his father, he became much more difficult to care for. He was entitled to social security benefits. The defendant didn’t want to have to take care of JJ anymore, he had money, JJ’s gone.”


9:45 a.m. Blake: “Tylee had money, Lori wanted it, Tylee’s gone.”


9:44 a.m. Blake: “The defendant used money, power, and sex to get what she wanted. It didn’t matter what it was.”


9:43 a.m. Fremont County Lindsey Blake will be giving opening statements on behalf of the state. She moves to a lectern in the courtroom and has a presentation she will be presented. “Money, power, and sex — that’s what this case is about.”
 
You followed this one didn't you? How can you not know who Alex is? Many details and two Mels etc. but most know who Chad, Lori and Alex are... They married him off to Zulema, the hurricane conjurer.... Then he died at her house.

There are so many characters in this fiasco that it's hard to follow.

Defense here on out: From HTC.

Evidence will show she was a kind and loving mother and that she has an interest in religion and the end times and biblical prophecies. Evidence will show that once Lori and friends met Chad, her beliefs began to change and that’s where the stories diverge

BBM

:rofl:
 
Yes, she just has an "interest" in it, nothing out there or outrageous or off the wall... Lol. UNTIL meeting Chad she was entirely normal... Farfetched. I think Chad will do similar when it is his turn...
I still think Joe Ryan's death is suspicious, and that was WAY before Lori met Chad.

(Cuz, Joe Ryan was Tylee's dad. Also died suddenly!)
