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.

WOW. Says Zuleman claimed never to Rexburg after Lori moved there, never saw her etc. False.

Doesn't believe Alex killed self but was murdered.

Remember the bag of money Alex allegedly told Zulema about? Annie thinks that money was not from Alex but that Chad and Lori gave her the bag of money for killing Alex.

Now tell me THAT isn't interesting...

Always thought the gift basket was odd and felt it to be code. I always thought it was odd too but only in the sense of Alex making up a gift basket...

I'm not entirely surprised to think or wonder if Z helped or did kill him. I mean short of Chad or Lori going over there, she was the one with access to him. I'\ve wondered the same but never thought about the bag of money being payment.

Strange stories that day by her, son and more. And she instantly lawyered up, I recall that.
 
Okay. NOW Annie is saying Alex's trip to Mexico is a lie. Not sure I can take all this stuff in, at least not with enough time to think on it. Annie says they pulled the border crossings for Alex, Chad and Lori and Alex's last time there was right after Charles was murdered. She says she picked up on this in Chad or Lori's trial. She says some say maybe he used a Real ID and she doesn't think there was such then but also says no matter what he used or if he could have, the border crossing would have been recorded.

Now I'll say maybe Alex as do others knew how to cross illegally BUT seems more likely it was done legit and so does she have this right? Wow. The lies. WHY lie about that? In case something was found in him maybe so they wanted it thought he may have got some bad drug from Mexico or something?

Now who can say this is all fact from Annie but she pretty much cites reasons she thinks such. The bag of money of course is her speculation/her opinion. However, the border crossing has a point, that the passport, etc. should show it.

I WILL say that people think passports are needed back and forth but it was never Mexico that required one, it was the US to get back into the US. I know this as I went to Mexico at least a dozen years in a row before needing a passport and once one was required. So Alex could possibly cross without a passport, etc. but that'a reach if he had one no? I also don't know how much Mexico cares if they record a crossing... We always flew so no clue.

She says so either Zulema lied or Alex lied to Zulema that he went there or that was where he was!

I'm getting a bit overloaded. Was due to leave but work just texted and said I could come in and hour later if I wanted and I took them up on it.

I thought we were through this case mostly although I have always felt there's a ton we don't know and may never know.
 
You CAN enter with a driver's license. I know that much. However, would the crossing be recorded or not?
 
Ok here's a December 2019 calendar. Tammy was exhumed on the 11th and Alex died on the 12th. If he went to Mexico on the Saturday before, that would be the 7th.

Thanksgiving weekend when they married in Vegas would have been the previous weekend right so Thursday 29th November and Friday 30th November, then Sunday 1st Dec. Guess it depends how long they stayed in Vegas for a honeymoon but I would presume they returned from honeymoon on the Monday 2nd at the earliest. Then the following Saturday he heads off to Mexico.

I have always thought he caught Covid either in Vegas or Mexico and that is what he died of due to the blood clots in his lungs.

Boy, did we hear this? Now Aunt Vickie and Lauren from Hidden True Crime came down on her for her victim impact statements. Did we know this?? She gives the story. I've said before I'm not a huge Lauren or Dr. John fan and I have my reasons, so I'm going to note this one. Who knows who to believe but STILL you don't do this to another victim's family member imo. It was an extremely stressful time for us I know. You wait for years for the one moment you don't get in all those years TO FINALLY represent the victim. Then you get told how long, what to do, not to do, and all sorts of sh*t which I disagree with by the way. We were all on the same page but still had

I can't imagine what this was like for all of them but can to a point. I don't care how tight you are and these are various families and more than one victim but it's just a very highly stressful process of years AND you are expected or asked to keep quiet which is excruciating. I'd say some stayed quiet here and some did not but regardless they all had this all to deal with.

I don't know what I expected but I didn't think I'd hear a lot new in this but it continues to surprise.

I know that and respect your opinion but still will say most think he was murdered and I'm one of them. She thinks so. All the prosecutors recently interviews by Nate seem to think so, that or "enforced" suicide so to speak.

I don't know that I buy the crossing would have been recorded. I've been to both Canada and Mexico although Mexico I never drove across but I recall a cursory check in Canada (many years ago) entering and coming back but don't know that I recall they recorded a thing. Perhaps they did, couldn't say for sure. Imo entry into Mexico is probably far, far more relaxed even. Maybe someone else can speak to that. We are the ones that have the problems crossing this way, not the other way around.

However remember when just in the last week I was asking where we got the info he had been to Mexico and this now touches on exactly that and it sounds like, as I thought, it came from Zulema. She says either Z lied or Alex lied to Z.

If you get time, give it a watch. Have you ever watched Annie? Been awhile for me but think I've seen basically all of hers on this over the years.

If it came from Z, and seems to have, there's no really no reason to believe it to be fact, at least to me.

I don't know how long they were in Vegas but for sure one or two overnights as the whole massage thing/story by Z. Again though this comes from her and no way to corroborate it. Or do the have proof of Alex buying massage oil and a tarp?

So I'm trying to recall here. He would I suppose have been living with Z in 'AZ right? AZ to Mexico makes sense, more sense than going from ID to Mexico. By then the kids were known to be missing right and and even further, Tammy had just been exhumed like I think it was the day before? OR was about to be, I forget. And SOMEHOW C & Lori knew this too. See to me, that just adds to it being murder. He had screwed up, was part of things, they didn't want him breaking or talking and pressure was starting on C & L and the bunch in fact. That exhumation would have been a huge deal to C & L in my opinion. Thought to never be doubted on TAmmy's death, well past it, well having fun spending the money, etc.

In a way, I'm not sure it matters whether he went to AZ or not, but who lies in this case I'd say does matter or I am interested in. She pointed out a few lies by Z. And we know or she is the main one we've heard it about that Z got an immunity deal. However, she apparently lies/d. No surprise to me. Imo much like Annie's this entire bunch (and perhaps MORE) were part of all of this and knew ALL of it.
 
I am back home. Long story but they are letting people go home and take sick pay if one is willing and so I took them up on it and actually am not feeling all that great on top of it. Glad to have it but a bit worried that we are slow and this is becoming a bit of a theme, cutting hours. And this is normally our busy season. I was trying to save my sick pay for something else but I also really need the break and so I wen tor it.

Anyhow, so I'm finish Annei's video, was close to done when I left.

A bit more of interest, and I have been back and forth through this with opinion in this video but overall I've always liked Annie and so I tend to believe her, she seems very open and upfront and always has to me I guess. I don't like any of the family members of all the families have had some issues but I also don't think it's unusual I guess.

Anyhow , remember how two of Mel P's kids were labeled dark. Well after Alex died I gather she remarked on how Alex was now watching over her two kids and she named the tow good ones only, not the "dark" ones that he was watching over as if the only kids she had is how I take it. I don't THINK I've ever heard this but am guessing maybe it came out at trial which of course I couldn't watch all of. So THAT;S interesting, why she's allowed contact with her kids I have no idea because sounds to me like she had basically written them off, two of them, as on longer of matter or alive, etc.

Also Tylee died only one year after her dad Joe. if I knew this, I'd forgotten or simply maybe never put it together. Annie thinks Joe was murdered and this one I did know before and have heard long videos of the reasons and info she thinks that because of. Some time back. I tend to agree although I'm not quite as convinced on him as with Alex but still pretty convinced. I definitely lean that way and always have.

There are quite a few tidbits in here and I haven't shared them all. She has done FOIAs or has info from FOIAs anyhow and has picked up on some things I've never heard or have forgotten, I think never heard in most cases.

When each trial was going on, even news and podcasters and even Nate could only cover so much too and have to pick and choose each night what was biggest to do a how on, etc. He and I think Linda too even said as much, they just could not cover it all. He did great with Tweets but as we know, they took don't cover it all like watching a trial does.

Back to the victim impact statements, if anyone recalls it was Vickie's and Kay's that were objected to buy defense. Kay's was overruled, Vickie's was not. She was rebuking Lori and Annie is saying how bad she felt for her. And no one attacked Vickie after is her point. Personally I thought it was awful, victims have no darned rights any longer I swear. Her point is she felt for Vickie at that trial and could not believe she came at her over her statement. She described as "Mean Girl" behavior. Again I wish this part of things wasn't going on, they ALL lost people. I have a pretty good idea though of who I'd bet was behind it/part of it. Enough of that other than to say I'm not sure why Vickie would do such. And of course then others did so, came at her as well.

It's well over 90 here and muggy as all heck. My daughter took my car the other day to get my AC charged and she told me it was a success. I was only in it for the first time today and while it is cooler than it was, I don't think it's working like it should be darn it unless it just didn't have time to get going well? It was also sitting outside since she brought it back, normally it would be in the garage. But it should kick in and cold pretty quickly shouldn't it? Her vehicle's did when I had it and she had mine.

Anyhow give Annie a watch or listen. I shared a lot but not all.
 
Another good point is that she says Mel P (in my opinion all of them) new Charles was dead, knew JJ was, Tylee, was that her husband Brandon was shot at (probably part of that imo and all of it) etc., etc. and even after all that makes out how Alex is watching over her two good kids from beyond I guess.

Imo all these people got unofficial deals or got let go far too easily. Not that getting the big dogs didn't matter but you know what, the bulk of what they had on them imo didn't come from the "gang". Some I guess did.

I don't know. Like I said just a lot of interesting things/thoughts in it.
 
Okay. And interesting one too. She thinks Mel's kids were to go to HI with them and thinks Brandon was within 24 hours of saving them. She thinks that's why Alex was supposed to go to HI with them... She says at his point Lori was furious with Alex for having botched the murder of Brandon, and of Tammy, She says she does not make dramatic statements without evidence and she thinks the evidence suggests they were to be murdered in HI.

Not sure on that one but she's definitely delved into all for a long time and deeply...
 
Well I can identify with her on a number of things. Another is she found out their mom was dead, then found out Joe was dead, no one had known about either, then a few months later another brother died and the next year Tylee. Yeah, I can certainly identify with all that kind of thing and it's a LOT is all I can say. Two brothers here, dad, granddaughter all way too close. And on to pof all those a number of grandparents, uncles, aunts, extended family in that same time frame.

Once she knew the kids were missing, she basically never thought them alive. Now that's interesting too.

She said for one, the kind of person that puts their kids in a bunker to be safe is not the same kind of person who jets off to HI with a new husband... Really good point Imo.
 
So I'm trying to recall here. He would I suppose have been living with Z in 'AZ right? AZ to Mexico makes sense, more sense than going from ID to Mexico. By then the kids were known to be missing right and and even further, Tammy had just been exhumed like I think it was the day before? OR was about to be, I forget. And SOMEHOW C & Lori knew this too.

Alex died in Az in Zulema's bathroom on the 12th Dec, the day after Tammy's exhumation so he had to be in Az didn't he? I think they had all left Rexburg in November around the 22nd ( the detectives found them in the process of moving out and seized a lot of evidence) and he went to Az then, around the time Lori and Chad went off to that farm place and then got married in Hawai. Z and A, plus Mel B and Ian P went to Vegas at Thanksgiving and both couples got married a day apart. A changed his surname to Pastenes. I don't see why he would change his name if he was going to kill himself.

yeah and David and Melanie Gibb married a year later was it on the date of Alex's death. I'd think nothing of that in some cases but I'll tell ya in this one I rule nothing out.

I think because they had search warrants, heat was coming, kids were being looked for, Brandon's attempted shooting, Alex's screw ups and more, the marriage to Z was probably ordered by the "god" and "goddess' or they had visions of this was what Alex was to do and the taking of her last name and his then living in AZ at her home was so he couldn't be found easily, blab, or them just find any of them and so on easily. My next guess would be if it wasn't already a plan, them exhuming Tammy was too much. He had also told was it Mel G or was it Z that he thought he might be being set up as their "fall guy". And I think the decision was made that he HAD to go. That being in AZ with her with a different last name was not safe enough and he was wondering if their fall guy and so on. They just coudln't have him tripping up and Lori was already livid over his misses and such. I think either he was convinced to suicide or take something at least and told he'd be given a crown and considered special (a bit of sarcasm) and sent back immediately in his next probation as someone more important yet and he'd be right back with them OR that Z was told to kill him or not to kill him but drug him or some such and so on, not to be home, let her son find him or whatever. There was a lot of weird sh*t that day and what she said back then before lawyering that did not add up to me. I don't know if you ever saw all that back when and I wouldn't begin to know where to find it now but lots of odd things. And her son didn't even know they were married or claimed not to anyhow. Alex didn't die slow the way I recall it. Son was very unwilling to do CPR, mouth to mouth. Zulema was "working" and heard of it I forget from who, cops called her or son or some such. Went home like between patients or clients, I forget.

Annie's opinion is her own but I found her thoughts pretty interesting and she's very analytical, she is an analyst I believe. She's had some VERY long shows through the years and I'm pretty sure I've seen them all. She created a program and some spreadsheet automated or some such, don't ask me, to search through the tons of documents in the document dump back when. Even offered it to police or came up with things if they read every word of all of it I preparing this case or investigating it that they could easily miss I'm sure.

So anyhow her analytical way means she backs things up with some reasons too.

I think it's interesting she thinks there was no trip to Mexico and that the bag of money was payment to Z for killing Alex. Now think about this, it just now occurred to me, if they were at her house because he was dying and/or searched her home or found the bag of money or she even WORRIED they did, she'd have to have a story for it. So it's an interesting thought. And Alex did not know he was going to die from all are to believe and why would he give her a bag of money and wasn't it, his words like if something ever happens to me, etc.?

Then she thinks gift basket is code. I always thought that was odd. That came from Zulema back when it happened or when she had to talk to Gilbert or some such and was interviewed. One thing he was to do that day if I recall it and was doing she asked him to do was put together a gift basket. I don't recall it all but it seems Annie is saying she had to cover this or this was code and so did they know Z said this to Lori and Chad or someone or was there a text or where does Annie get that I don't know. Or did she figure when the term came up if Lori and Chad or anyone else was questioned by LE they'd know the code word? I'm a bit lost on that one as I just thought it came from her to LE is how I recall it. I think it's odd a man like Alex would be asked to make a gift basket but then it was December... Who knows...

I WILL say this. I believe we've never heard all and I believe Z did things and so did the others we may never hear of. I don't know if LE knows and they came totally clean and just by agreements agreed not to question on such or give such up in trial but they all had lawyers. I figured always that Chad and/or Lori killed Alex but that Z may have as well per their "orders" or "visions". They were in Hawaii when he died is that correct? Per the dates? Or were they?

if the Mexico thing is true, I think he was given something or took something and whether given by Z or took it himself, probably told a lie or she maybe even was, that it was to help with this or that or something but she may have flat out also even told to kill him. The Mexico claim may also be just in case they found what was in his system (but was something they already had) to cover where the drug or poison came from, that Alex got it in Mexico himself and took it himself. The rabbit holes are endless in this case just like Rachel Smith said.

I also am not clear on why Annie thinks Mel's kids were to go with Hawaii with them and the plan was they would die there and that's why Alex was going. Maybe just because Alex was going but then Chad needed him to help with Tammy. I don't ever recall seeing a hint Mel's two dark kids at least were to go to Hawaii with them so not sure where that comes from. She could probably fill MUCH of this in but he show was shorter than her usual four to eight hours lol, etc. It could be and perhaps something changed there too, but I didn't hear what or why she thought that. Of course it was Lori and Mel in Hawaii at the time Tammy died (alibi imo, etc.) and not Lori and Chad yet then. And Mel's kids had been labeled dark, TWO of them. He point about only naming two Alex was watching over was a good one by Annie (the good kids). And this bunch did change areas and travel and move, etc. and I think they thought that was smart. One murder in one state, one in another. Charles AZ for instance, kids ID. Kids different dates different stories. Yellowstone. Etc.

Yeah there's so much more imo that we may never know. The fact the P could narrow this down so a jury could follow but not so narrow as to still not be a lot is amazing. Like Rachel Smith said there were far more things she'd have liked to follow up and got answers to and rabbit holes and one was that Mexico trip. She never said though she thought it untrue but then did they confirm itin any way. If they did, Annie is wrong on that one. If they did not, who knows...

Like I said Annie's opinions are her opinions but she's in possession of as much as one can get of the info. She does back up her reasons. I think she's probably right on a few here but maybe wrong on others. In THIS case I read every document there was back when, watched every single interview, read them all myself, read every document dumped myself. WAtched any family member appearing on a YT video I heard of and so on, or doing their own like Annie. Nate's interviews way back with both Mels . All their interviews with LE that were released. All relating to Charles too. But talk about information overload. The only things unfortunate I have not watched all of were the trials as I don't have that kid of time now.

Oh I watched some of the dumb podcasts like one of Julie Rowe. How anyone can fall for such sh*t I have no idea. And what the H was that about her appearing at Chad's trial and trying to come in incognito. All are freaking weirdoes.

Enough said by me. I have to get in the shower before I don't.

Here's my last thing. Would they truly have given Z immunity if she murdered Alex? Maybe if she said this sh*t they believed Lori and Chad didn't tell her that's what she was doing would they? Or is that they can't be sure whether she did, he suicided and then unfortunately they have the ME saying natural causes so even if they wonder and she never admitted a thing, perhaps they would. I think she needed immunity though big time for some things and what were they... Annie also mentioned how all were up there at various times, to Rexburg, and that Z lied about that. Heck how long were they there, a couple of months and it was like a revolving door...Maybe she said that and I stole it, can't recall but it came to me from somewhere lol. The revolving door.
 
I know that and respect your opinion but still will say most think he was murdered and I'm one of them. She thinks so. All the prosecutors recently interviews by Nate seem to think so, that or "enforced" suicide so to speak.

I don't know that I buy the crossing would have been recorded. I've been to both Canada and Mexico although Mexico I never drove across but I recall a cursory check in Canada (many years ago) entering and coming back but don't know that I recall they recorded a thing. Perhaps they did, couldn't say for sure. Imo entry into Mexico is probably far, far more relaxed even. Maybe someone else can speak to that. We are the ones that have the problems crossing this way, not the other way around.

However remember when just in the last week I was asking where we got the info he had been to Mexico and this now touches on exactly that and it sounds like, as I thought, it came from Zulema. She says either Z lied or Alex lied to Z.

If you get time, give it a watch. Have you ever watched Annie? Been awhile for me but think I've seen basically all of hers on this over the years.

If it came from Z, and seems to have, there's no really no reason to believe it to be fact, at least to me.

I don't know how long they were in Vegas but for sure one or two overnights as the whole massage thing/story by Z. Again though this comes from her and no way to corroborate it. Or do the have proof of Alex buying massage oil and a tarp?
I don't have the time to watch videos. Zulema testified he went to Mexico the Saturday before he died. If she lied under oath then she could be lying about everything and killed him herself but I don't believe that is the case. The simplest to me is he caught Covid on his Vegas or Mexico trip and I have always thought that. In her testimony, Z states that he went to Mexico for the day on the Saturday and came back sick so he had to be sick from the 7th until he died on the 12th. I just checked and the Mexico border is only 169 miles from Gilbert so he could easily go there and back in a day.

BTW they have discovered that Covid was in several US states as early as Dec 2019 by testing blood from deceased people, so it is very likely IMO. I think more likely than Z killed him. The autopsy did detect blood clots in his lungs, which is just another indication to me that it was Covid.

I get lack of time. I generally play them while doing things. Either way, just sharing what's in them. Or I have them on very late after a long work day when I should be in bed and then operate on little sleep.

Did she testify to it or is that simply what she said back when? The trials weren't about Alex's death but about the kids' and Tammy's and Boyce let Charles come up a fair amount in both trials. I did not get to watch must testimony but I made a point of watching that of some, like Chad's kids, etc.

I won't argue the Covide possibility but I also put a lot of store in that all three prosecutors don't think he died of natural causes. Four actually, although one is a detective, Hermasillo. To me that says a lot and they know a lot more than we do or maybe ever will. You know Mexico was one of the last places even though closest to us one was ever hearing much at all about Covid. A helluva lot closer than China.

I also don't think Joe and Tammy were Covid and there's two more than were ruled natural and in Tammy's case first ruled natural and both had some weird and similar things imo.

For me it's too much coincidence and too many deaths. And the timing of Alex's was uncanny you have to admit. Well you don't have to but I trust you know what I mean.

And I guess I don't get why Alex going to Mexico means Covid over the fact he probably had more contact here with people and could have gotten it if he got such here.

I am guessing you are going by symptoms or how he died, what was said, etc. This bunch was traveling, eating out, you name it. I mean I guess he could have went to Mexico, crossed the border, bought some drugs and then came down with Covid.

if the trip to Mexico is true, he was still buying drugs if that was the purpose. Smith said it is one thing she would have liked to delve in further and again I'm going to go with the prosecutors and investigator probably more so.

Maybe she isn't sure he went, I have no idea, she never said, just that she'd have liked to follow it up and still wonders about what drugs and the trip.

Even Lindsey Blake who I expected to be probably the least forthcoming as they are the prosecutors, she was the key one, there may be appeals and so forth said more than I'd expect. I am going to guess if you don't do videos at all, that you didn't watch Nate's with them either and not judging that believe me, I know you have a full plate, but I AM saying coming from all four and the detective one of the four, it holds a lot of weight with me that he did not die naturally. They were careful by far to not diss the ME but they can only do so much and after the fact as well. And since it was what I already thought, the fact the think it added a lot of weight.

There really is most of the time I learned no such thing as too much coincidence. And Alex's was a lot. Moved to AZ they all hightailed it out, married Z like that wasn't part of a Chad and Lori thing imo, just like Melanie and Ian, took her last name, basically unheard of, had screwed up, Tammy was exhumed, etc. That's all way too much.

So back to my original question, was it talked of at trial and in testimony as you said that Alex went to Mexico? i'd be surprised as again his death wasn't one tried. If you mean her talking in interviews, oh there's some such back when that one can almost intuit she wasn't telling the truth, before any deal probably but then those interviews are LE videos and I know you are more print than video.

Mean in all lightness. I don't do Reddit where I don't think most is sourced is it? And you don't do videos. However, I learn things or possibilties from you sharing such.

I'll never be convinced that Alex died of natural causes. I'm not speaking for her but will say @Kimster has said the same. it would be the most unreal MAJOR tons of coincidences ever and timing. And I only mentioned maybe 1/4 of them.

Also if by under oath you mean a police interview or interrogation, they aren't under oath. So did she say this in court? And she may have. But again not sure why Alex's death would have come up and his trip to Mexico since his death was after a few months of Tammy's and the kids'.

I certainly don't know, I think I may have ever watched hers, I made a point of seeing Chad's kids, David's I think the Mel's and perhaps Zulema's but I wasn't looking to center on the trip to Mexico when I did. I looked for the personal witnesses and part of the coverup, group, etc. as to most of what I watched and it was hard to find time for those but I did.

The fact remains and I think it to be fact, that we don't know this trip was confirmed for was there testimony that it was? This story comes from Z and Alex could have even lied to her. Have we seen a passport stamp, a video of a border crossing? Rachel Smith said herself, that trip was something they had to decide what mattered and cut a lot of things in the case to narrow down to the important things for a jury and keep it not too confusing and boy I'd bet any of us would admit this case has been a doozy and a lot of info through the years AND that they have been and combed through a whole lot more than us while also having to prepare, investigate and do a job.

There should be evidence Alex crossed. I'd like to see it. And even then I see the drugs another way and don't lean towards Covid but that's okay we have different thoughts.

Zulema was some nurse or some such wasn't she? He'd have been far more likely to catch such from her if he was gong to especially if this was a 'real" marriage and they had a real bed sharing relationship. I wonder if her or her son got it right after Alex died. Just saying. Food for thought. We will never know but did the attending EMTs, detectives, etc. get it after responding to Alex's death?

If he'd flown to Mexico, I'd be more likely to think that.

Again, timing and all, I don't lean that way. However I do get it that you could think it with what was found or thought to the the cause by the ME. Did she even mention COVID though? And on the same basis, Joe, Alex, and even Tammy who was ruled another way, hers could be wrong, all meant to seem natural. Heart, heart and heart, or clots, heart, etc. How old were each... And each and every one fitting an agenda or very convenient.

This is me talking thoughts I've always come to, not Annie.

Followed from day one of this case. BUT it does get hard to keep up and retain it all. No doubt.

Okay. I'm down to a couple of hours sleep, my own fault. When I started this it was going to be one glass of chocolate milk as it fills me up and gets me tired but I am on like three.

Hope your world is going as good as it can. We are bound to agree and disagree on cases through the future years or parts of them. I'm not disagreeing either, it COULD have been the weirdest coincidence but just isn't where I lean.

I will never believe Alex died naturally short of such proof that is beyond. And I don't believe most do think so. I haven't even mentioned the "blessing". Soooooo many things.

You know I think part of it is what MEs are stuck to. I think if they can't find anything else and have to rule such out they maybe have to go that route. I'd like to look into that more. I don't like when cases are ruled suicide when they can't be sure but they found nothing else, etc. I think they always should be undetermined. Like with Shannon Gilbert. I do think things were FOUND with Alex as to heart or clots or some such BUT did something trigger them... Etc. Joe was similar in my opinion. Tammy if not for the asphyxiation I'd say the same but who knows what was given or could have been before that too. The pink foam has been debated much. Even Emma mentioned it. Did she actually see that...

Okay done with this glass of chocolate milk and two hours sleep tops for me or if I go longer I will be more rushed than I like to be for work.

You are probably starting the day and coffeeing.
 
I get lack of time. I generally play them while doing things. Either way, just sharing what's in them. Or I have them on very late after a long work day when I should be in bed and then operate on little sleep.

Did she testify to it or is that simply what she said back when? The trials weren't about Alex's death but about the kids' and Tammy's and Boyce let Charles come up a fair amount in both trials. I did not get to watch must testimony but I made a point of watching that of some, like Chad's kids, etc.

It's in the Z testimony I originally posted that he was sick when he came back from Mexico on the Saturday, that Roundpeg just brought forward. It's where I got my dates from too.

I just don't believe Z would have killed him or that he killed himself. Her testimony plus his autopsy showing the blood clots in the lungs convinces me. He was sick for 5 days.

From the text of Z testimony.

11:07 a.m. The Saturday before Alex died, he said he was going to Mexico for the day. He left in the morning and was fine but came back sick that night. As Zulema speaks, many jurors are taking notes.

BTW they have discovered that Covid was in several US states as early as Dec 2019 by testing blood from deceased people, so it is very likely IMO. I think more likely than Z killed him. The autopsy did detect blood clots in his lungs, which is just another indication to me that it was Covid.
It was definitely here before Dec 2019. I have absolutely no doubt about that.

And you don't have to. And it's possible. It is your opinion but not mine. And you may be correct and I wrong, and others. Either way.

Lori and Chad seemed not to care or too interested in losing their hit man and again no one else we know of anyhow got sick around him. Covid is catching, blood clots aren't.

And Z would have probably been one with the most exposure. And around him for five days sick then, son as well, etc.

But that's okay. We just don't agree on this one. Anything is possible though.

So she did testify to it. Annie did say Alex told her and she may not have been lying of course that's if she told him the truth. Again I'd like to see the border crossing, etc. While he doesn't need a passport to enter Mexico (last I knew), he needs one to come back so there should be a stamp on the passport. At least last I knew it was that way. I went for a dozen years probably but haven't in a long time.

Again, I'd like to see the proof he went. So Alex told her. I guess he could have gotten it anywhere (if it was Covid) and instantly sick, not a couple days later but day of. Let's say it was Covid, he still went to Mexico for drugs then and what were the drugs, etc.

Hard to trust anything this group says but so let's say he did. So he ran for drugs just before he died.

He could be lying to Z but why. I mean he could have said he was going to ID or something or anywhere. Again the idea he never went came from Annie, not me.

Covid, drugs, suicide, murder, whatever, I'd like to see the facts on it. By the time his autopsy was done,

Wasn't Alex cremated? Also, I had thought it was a re-autopsy or a first one when one never done but maybe it just took that long. I went hunting for that info but never really found it. I did find this. This is exactly what Annie was talking about in that Z does/did lie. She talks like Chad did (when married to Lori yet claiming to hardly know her). Them her own daughter pretty much contradicted her. Just for ONE part of it imo showin lies and so on.


“She said the last time she tried texting Lori, the number was disconnected,” according to the report. “She had met Lori a few times before when Lori lived locally. She had not seen Lori since she moved a few months ago. She did not think Lori was married.”

Meanwhile, Pastenes’ daughter arrived at the house and spoke with detectives about her mother and Lori. She described the two as good friends who attended the same congregation of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, according to police reports.


The daughter said both Pastenes and Lori were “preppers” preparing for the end of the world, and her mother met Cox, whom she described as “very religious,” through Lori. The two became engaged, and Pastenes planned to move to Idaho with Cox, Daybell and Pawlowski, according to the daughter. Plans changed when Cox moved in with them around Thanksgiving 2019.

Back at the hospital, a family member showed up and told Pastenes she should not speak to investigators without an attorney. They went to their home, and Pastenes received a phone call from someone.

“Moments later, Zulema told me she would not talk with me without a lawyer,” an officer wrote in a report.

Others, whose names were redacted from police reports, also would not speak with investigators as they had retained attorneys.

After Pastenes stopped talking, the Gilbert Police Department served a search warrant on the home.

Officers searched the house and several items of evidence were recovered, according to police reports. Details of what was taken were redacted from reports, but it appears one of the items was a cell phone, which had data extracted from it.


Included in the case report is an introduction to Cox’s involvement in several investigations before, during and after his death, but no further details were explained. It is known Cox shot and killed Lori Daybell’s fourth husband, Charles Vallow, in July 2019. Cox claimed self-defense. Police were still investigating Vallow’s death in Chandler, Arizona, when Cox died.

Idaho court documents show Cox’s phone placed him at the location where the remains of JJ and Tylee were found around the time they disappeared. No one has been charged in the kids’ deaths, but Chad and Lori Daybell are charged with felonies related to the concealment, alteration and destruction of their bodies.

In a recorded conversation played during a court hearing last week, Special Prosecutor Rob Wood told Lori’s sister, Summer Shiflet, in October that he intends to file conspiracy to commit murder charges against the couple. Those charges had not been filed as of Monday.

The next court hearing for the Daybells will discuss moving the trial from Fremont County. A date for that hearing has not yet been scheduled.

Along with the release of the Cox police report, Gilbert Police shared videos, 911 calls and other reports tied to the Daybell investigation as previously reported on by EastIdahoNews.com.

And more at link.

Anyhow... yes I'd say she lies or did, just like Chad, I don't know her well, don't have her number, etc.

About two hours sleep and can't look further but did do a fair search, I was trying t find autopsy result dates and so on.

I'm no into it mattering but they are all worried right off the bat LE may think responsible his death, etc and are looking into the whole "thing" and Alex's death.

Z lies no doubt, and has imo. She may have told the truth on the stand with respect t particular things, and never asked others. But also her knowledge of Mexico comes from Alex.

I don't know that much of it matters other than I was just saying how Annie takes it. Also interested had Smith, Wood, etc. been able to develop further into the trip. Why would they want to if just cheaper prescriptions. Not a WORD is said re Covid and his autopsy results were later than his death by far. Also, let's remember his being sick for five days comes from who? And of cours would not see a doctor much like claimed about Tammy. and years later her daughter, etc.

Again too much for me and just food for thought.

Never a Covid reference I've ever heard of re autopsy nor case and you know what Tammy could have well had it too, I mean look at his they thought she died at first, but nary a reference, I mean if all are deemed natural causes at those points.

On that note, I'd like to know if Z or son got sick and so on, or Tammy's kids and so on.

But again, could be that or anything. And I doubt we will ever know short of someone talking that knows.

There's a fair amount of hearsay in these trials, etc. And maybe the trip was corroborated by passport, was it?

I't's no sweat off my back what is true other than Z lied just as Chad did about how well she knew Lori and so forth. She helped nail both so I will give her that but I don't necessarily believe all she's every said and why should we. Or of any. Even Mr. "Innocent " Ian wen to record but ended up telling Mel P what he was doing in short order. David went with and was in Rexburg when JJ was killed, all so very coincidental and had a "dream". Niightmare. Whatever. What I'm doing is with little time trying to just give tons of coincidences. By far too many. Mel P was there and just yah never wondered why Tylee never came by. Uh huh. She's an aunt, never tried to see her or have lunch when she was at "BYU". Ms. Flippy Bouncy mini Lori? Way, way, way too much. Too many coincidences. They got the big dogs and I believe all got deals or something was struck.

How Alex died matters but doesn't. So does or doesn't what drugs he was getting... And so on the flip side Z and son and who knows let him suffer for five days...

Anyhow, two to two and a half hours sleep. I do it to myself but in large part do not have me in it right tnow. She lied about some things, at east early on... Even the ones played most innocent like the David and the Ian, huh, just dumb dufuses or what?

And as I said this one, even if not easy to recall all, I followed basically all of it from day one.
 
It was definitely here before Dec 2019. I have absolutely no doubt about that.
Yeah pretty sure I had it and my mom. Mentioned before elsewhere back when.

Doesn't mean it's what Alex had but if so he also brought it in and back to the country. How many did he infect...

And again how convenient and why were he and Tammy at different times not looked at for it and the people around them and it considered.

Just goes to show ya how if anyone trusts tracking and stats of anything how inaccurate it all is.
