The reason for Lori Vallow Daybell’s imprisonment is the murder of her children, Tylee Ryan and J. J. Vallow. Her partner in crime was her husband, Chad Daybell. According to KTVB, apart from the murder of her two children, Lori also had a part to play in the murder of Chad’s former wife, Tammy Daybell.
What did Lori Vallow Daybell do?
The last time Loris’ children were seen alive was when the family visited the Yellowstone National Park on September 8, 2019. At the time of Tylee and J.J.’s disappearance, Lori and Chad were not married. However, on November 5, 2019, the couple tied the knot on a Hawaiian beach.
Officials soon began investigating the disappearance of Lori’s children and a nationwide search transpired. Soon, Lori was arrested, however, she still refused to reveal where her children were. According to CBS News, on June 9, 2020, the FBI, Rexburg Police, and Fremont County Sheriff’s Office joined hands and searched Chad Daybell’s property.
Investigators began digging the backyard, and tragically, they stumbled into human remains. The couple buried, both, of their children in shallow graves. Officials discovered J.J. Vallow’s corpse under a tree, while her sister’s body lay about 50 yards away. Following this shocking finding, Lori’s husband, Chad, was also arrested.
According to KTVB, During Lori’s trial, multiple members of the victims’ family gave written and verbal statements to the judge.
Kay Woodcock, J.J.’s grandmother said, “She took all that away because she is a money-hungry power-mongering monster. She has shown no grief for the lives she took or the pain she willingly caused.”
According to CourtTV, Lori’s husband, Chad’s trial is set for Apr. 1, 2024,.
