Phoenix, AZ - Jury selection commenced today in the Arizona trial of Lori Vallow Daybell, who is charged in connection with the death of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. The proceedings mark another chapter in the ongoing legal saga surrounding Daybell, also known as the "Doomsday Mom." Charles Vallow died in 2019 after being shot by Lori's brother, Alex Cox, who claimed self-defense. However, investigators questioned the circumstances surrounding the shooting, leading to charges against Daybell.
Daybell's trial in Arizona is separate from the Idaho case where she was convicted of murdering her two children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan. The Idaho case captivated the nation with its bizarre details and religious undertones. Prosecutors alleged that Daybell and her husband, Chad Daybell, held apocalyptic beliefs that influenced their actions.
The current trial in Arizona focuses specifically on the death of Charles Vallow and Lori's alleged role in the events leading up to his death. If convicted, she could face additional prison time. The trial is expected to last several weeks as the prosecution and defense present their evidence and arguments to the jury. The outcome of this trial could further impact Daybell's legal future and add another layer to the already complex case.
