This means she does indeed have a pertinent psy-mental condition that made the state decide to spare her of such a possibility, I guess.
@@Nikita-zo4gp there were two major elements at play.

I can’t stop thinking about what happened to Tylee and what her last days and hours were like, after hearing about “increasing the pain” and the way her body was found I can only assume the worst. God rest their souls in heaven❤
Solitary confinement with the pictures, in color, of the children's dead bodies plastered all over her walls. No one to talk to or see, only those pictures until her body is taken out in a cardboard box.

The tragedy of it is there is no resting in peace, there is only an absolute and complete extinguishing of life. That extraordinary precious thing is forever gone.
I was thinking the same thing. Men kill their children so much more frequently than women do though. We mothers have a visceral connection to our children.
I’m aware that other evil parents exist …but it doesn’t uplift anyone to beat that drum. Darkness added to darkness gives more darkness…There are parents who are awesome parents and even parents who have died, leaving their own young family behind, while trying to save someone else’s child from drowning! 💔😢 I’d rather focus my appreciation and be honoring those kind of parents who are making the world a kinder and more loving place!
I wonder how anyone would think they could possibly get away with all this evil. I hope and pray the jury makes the right decision. These kids need justice!
That’s the one question I always have in life. I want to know how some women can have children, while some who would give their life to have a child can’t. 😔
Faulty wiring inside the brain allows a mother to kill a child, the same way it enables her to see Lori's unmade face in the mirror & still believe she's been a goddess in multiple reincarnations.

Mr. Woods was brilliant! Praying for the jury to do the right thing. Praying for the families of JJ, Tyler, Tammy, and Charles. So sad the death penalty was taken out.
Always remember, there is a Judgment Day before God coming soon. "The end of all things is near. Seek the Lord while He may be found. Call upon Him while He is near." (Isaiah 55)
Cult thinking...the children's souls were dead..by killing them they released the evil spirits..thus the bodies were worthless then and had to be destroyed. Chad and Lori would reclaim the children later after the end of the world and their spirits would be reborn to be with the chosen. something like this I think...The money was a gift for them from heaven to further their work here on Earth. Chad and Lori thought the money was due to them so that they could lead the lives they desired before then end of days because they were the chosen King and Queen. That's why Lori keeps saying "just wait, you will all see the truth in time."
I’d bet more than three! #4 - Lori’s husband. #5 - Lori’s brother Alex. He died the day after Tammy was disinterred. #6 - Lori’s former healthy husband, early on. #7 - Lori’s sister Stacey?
And if we’re talking conspiracy to mur**** - Alex wife testified that he put her on a plastics sheet and possibly druged her at some point. Plus the attempt on Melanie husband And the talks about her children being “dark”. Given the chance they would have gotten to more ppl. Reality hit them in the face with that court order thank God. I’m just wondering do they still believe the same things they did now? I think she does for sure otherwise she would have applied the insanity option.
Great and thorough presentation by the prosecutor and in a very calm and professional manner. So much evidence to the crimers. How could Lori and Chad kept on breathing after what they have done together with Alex's "assitance". This is a horrific case like no other. It brings tears to our eyes to think about the kids and also Tammny and Charles. All premeditated, planned ahead. Using religion as a way to pretend they were so good when actually the 2 of them became what they have always been inside of them: MONSTERS!
Well described n well said as it is calmly n to the point!! I have no strength to do what he did. Justice for those who have died in this monster's hand. It's unbelievable how many people are hurt and affected by their senseless cringey crimes.
What they did to those two children is horrific😢 sometimes and I know we have laws ‘innocent until proven guilty’, because many have gone to prison that are innocent, but in instances like this case, I wish there was a law that, w the evidence they have, send them straight to the gallows. Put them to death instead of dragging out a trial.
I could see it all happening before me as the prosecution described the events. I do think when Alex brought jj in that night Alex had drugged him to make the attack easier for Chad and Lori. My gut tells me they killed jj in her bedroom
I have a grandson that has autism and adhd. I've cried so much I've had several migraines and had to miss a lot and catch up. It's horrific. Bless you and your son sweetheart ❤️
It's heartbreaking to hear the description of what they did to Tyler n JJ. It could stop your loved one's heart beating if you're not strong emotionally n psychologically.. so awful 😢😢
This prosecutor was awesome & really broke things down and timelined events beautifully 😍. Bravo to him. Goodbye Lori. It ought to be life WITHOUT parole.
"We're out of money" Did she ever think of getting a job? She's a hairdresser & they can easily get a job no matter where they are. For a few hundred bucks they can rent a chair in a shop & be their own boss. After Chad told her she was the queen of the universe manual labor was beneath her. I think she was the main manipulator in the duo.
So do they think Alex helped kill Tammy too? Did he walk to the Daybell residence that night and leave his phone(s) in his vehicle? This whole case is an absolute nightmare! My heart breaks for all of the victims of these freaks!!
@@pinkpugginz that's what I thought too, but why would Alex go and randomly park nearby? Considering the defensive wounds on Tammy, I thought maybe she was fighting two people off and wish they could have gotten evidence from her body before she was buried if she had Alex's DNA on her!
This has been confusing me too. I also think Chad smothered her himself. But why was Alex down the street? Would Chad really let him come in his house and kill her while he watched or something? Wasn’t his son home?
@Terri exactly! I think the plan might have been to have Alex do it, but maybe the son stayed up late or something so Chad decided to do it himself and Alex was there as plan A that fell through! Just my guess.. trying to understand crazy people is difficult, but that's my best guess as to why he was there! I just can't imagine Tammy being unable to scream or something unless she was asleep when he attacked her. The son had to know something was happening!
While I do believe Alex shot Charles, I don’t believe he was dead from that first shot. I then believe Lori came and stood over Charles and taunted him as she’d been doing and then shot him close range while he’s laying helpless on the floor! I truly do! She is an evil woman! The autopsy explains the gunshot wounds.
She got immunity, it was Melanie Gibb. Lori's friend. Lori's neice is also named Melanie and IMO she 1000% should have been charged as well. She knew more than Melanie Gibb and it was her husband Alex shot at and missed. I think she was in on that plan but it ended up that Lori's neice didn't even have to testify, she got to go home.
@@NF40375 I still believe she should have had a tampering with evidence charge for deleting her texts. I'm not sure she knew he was going to kill everyone, but she sure pushed him into it happening.
Wow, great closing! Prayers the jury gets this right 🙏 Also prayers for the jury’s healing from having to hear and see the brutal bodies of those children and Tammy! 🙏🙏💙💜🌺🌸
I've followed the case for a while and followed the trial. I knew the details of the children's death. But...the beginning of the closing, as he talks about them and their deaths. It had me crying. And I...I'm a fairly hard person.
No normal person can imagine what they did to those children without being upset. What they did is beyond horrific 😢 I couldn't even think of something like that up in my wildest dream, over anyone, especially children, MY OWN CHILDREN!! HOW?? And finding out they both knew what was happening made it sooo much worse. I've cried so much I've had many migraines because of it. She sits there like it's no big deal. I'll never understand! Bless you, just know you're a good person!! ❤
Justice for all the people dead by these sick individuals serial killers, may they come back and haunt you every time you close your eyes sick sick sick
I had zero concept of the sheer volume of evidence the prosecution collected in this case. I am blown away at the magnitude of this investigation. Your dedication to seeking justice for all those callously tormented, tortured and murdered by these greedy invertebrates is to be applauded - whatever the outcome. More you all truly could not do. I salute you all. This closing argument, methodically laid out and spoken about in a calm and measured manner, is breaking my heart. I am sobbing. The cruelty, spite, malice, revenge, subterfuge, nastiness of these things is beyond comprehension.
Lori will regret what she´d done.... someday... because she now has lots and lots of time to THINK. It will be agonizing for her. Lietecia, on the other hand will NEVER regret what she did, only that she got caught out
They all thought they were above the law. One killer deceased the other 2 needs to spend the rest of their life in prison.. Senseless deaths based on greed, money n s_x Unbelievable!!!
The defense got two things right: Zulema wanted to feel special and cool and Melanie Gibb wanted to feel included and superior! We’ll have to stomach that they go Kelly have immunity so we could get their testimony against Chad and Lori, but Melanie herself was so eager to tell Nate, “folks will say I only heard this stuff on the news, no, I know it firsthand, I was there, I knew it all” before the kids were found. They were all in deep together and they’re lucky as H not to be in prison themselves now!
I pray this jury does the right thing regarding this horrendous crime. No words can describe the evil in this story and the absence of any love or empathy is incomprehensible to normal people. These are MONSTERS and belong to be put away for EVER.
wow D.A. Rob Wood's words took me through the trial and painted the picture clearly. I've not been able to follow the trial. Now this is a closing argument while detailing the story. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really am left to wonder how a woman could become so self deceived as to carry out such horrendous acts. She can't even blame drugs. Her face? Turning into a contortion. The LOVE of money. The root of all evil. Darkness and judgment coming for this country.
I don't belive she was deceived, I'm convinced she was pulling the strings and Chad was happy to give her what she wanted. They just feed each other sickening motivation.
@@ceciliacrijnen9254 Chad just listened to what she wanted, and what made her happy versus miserable, and he tried to make it all happen for her, i.e., give her the 'good', and banish the 'bad'. Lori didn't want to be a mother anymore. She wanted to be an exalted goddess. Unfortunately for her, there is no such thing in the world that Jesus Christ rules over. She and Chad were begging to be humbled, and they got it - bigtime. How dare they place themselves on equal terms with God Almighty.
When I was a a teenager my mother and I went to visit my granny and my Aunt, my cousin had gotten in trouble some kind of vandalism or something and the police were involved, and my aunt and Granny said that she wouldn't have done it had she not been under the influence of those other girls! My mother saw that I was listening to this conversation and she she said to me some let's go into bedroom for a minute. So we went in the bedroom and my mother said I am not scolding you at all just want you to know that I'm not scolding you. My mother proceeded to say; this is not right thinking, she said your cousin was equally as responsible for the trouble she got into because she chose to be in the company and she is equally as guilty as they are and there are consequences for her as well. Lori shows of her own free will to be in the presence of Chad and is equally for the death of her children and her husband and Chad's wife. The blame game has been going on since the very beginning of time Adam and Eve. Adam blamed Eve. The woman did give me and I did eat! Eve blamed the serpent. The serpent beguiled me and I did eat! The serpent may have beguiled them, but they chose to listen to the serpent! God gave them free will! And they chose to do the wrong thing! And the consequences were they got kicked out of the Garden of Eden. Every person is responsible for their own actions and they make their own choices end of story! Lori had a big part in killing her own children oh, she never wanted them in the first place, she only put on an act around other people to be a doting mother but deep down inside she wanted to be free of them! She is as equally guilty a killing her own children and chats wife and her husband and manipulating her brother into killing her husband as her protector but the only has the mind of a sixteen-year-old. She manipulated her brother and she is responsible! I don't know the the god that she's fabricated! My God said that shall not kill! My Jesus said and came not into the world to apply but to give life. This is definitely a cult mentality, but using God's name in vain is not saying the GD word, it is using God's name for gain of lust of money lust of the flesh and willing to do anything to fulfill your own perverted selfish desires. When Cain slew Abel in the Bible, God said to Kane, where's my brother Abel his blood cries up to me! And Cain said to God am I My Brother's Keeper! God is All-Seeing and all-knowing and not a leaf falls to the ground the Bible says that God doesn't know it. Chad and Lori are the most evil people I have ever seen right next to Charles Manson and all the other evil people that killed infant people special children. I hope they get the death penalty
From what I've gotten, Alex was easily manipulated by Lori. She could get him to do anything she wanted him to. She basically told Chad they had to get rid of him because the police could get him to talk. They had some kind of hand in his death too.
Agree with you, I believe that they had something to do with Alex's death. I believe that when they killed Alex they thought that if they went to court they would try to lay the blame on Alex
@@EarthChickadee I think we can learn a lot about life through the 40 days and 40 nights that Jesus was in the wilderness being tempted of Satan. Satan says to Jesus, Fall Down and Worship me and I will give you all of this the Kingdom's the world because I have been given power over it. Just answered that's what love the Lord thy God and him only shall we serve. Satan offered Jesus money things lust of the flesh and Jesus was not all about that he loved the poor and the downtrodden and those that were told that they had sinned against God and that's why they were poor or lame or blind the self-righteous scribes and Pharisees of his day. And does self-righteous scribes and Pharisees live today and they worship more than they worship God. All the rich gather money put their trust and money like it's an insurance policy. Those who have done the right thing and suffer for it have put their trust in God. Our Blessed assurance policy is with God not things in possessions and anything that is lust of the flesh
@@debidriscoll8108 yes and with all the rumors about Lori and Alex her own brother, I believe that Lori sexually manipulated Alex and Chad into doing anything that she wanted done.
It´s great to know that Lori and Chad will never see each other again and even better never TOUCH each other again! 🤮 How agonizing will that be for them? 😆They went through so much trouble all for NOTHING!!! KARMA
Lori would have dumped Chad as soon as she was tired of him, even after all this. I'm sure she was already thinking of moving on, had they not been caught
I love, love, love that the prosecutor repeatedly said "Lori Vallow" instead of Lori Daybell. I am sure she hated that and it was like a jab every time he said it. Excellent job, sir!
I have a 2 year old son, 6 year old daughter and 8 year old son. I would never dream of having them murdered. That would be my ultimate NIGHTMARE. They trust me and love unconditionally. When children come along in life - you put their needs before your own. It’s just what any good parent should be doing. I can’t think of a greater betrayal than a parent murdering their own child.
The closing arguments were brilliant. Such skill in the construction of the events. It is all tied together in a clear way in order for us to see how their evil plot started and progressed. What a huge amount of work! Thank you so much for telling JJ and Tylee's story so eloquently.
IKR? The Chandler PD did him a huge disservice. It’s totally unbelievable that LE let Alex and Lori off Scott free, inexcusable incompetence on their part.
People are forgetting about poor Charles Vallow… if not for Lori he would still be alive and could have possibly save his children. May they all rest in peace.
She got away with destroying Joe Ryan too. She destroyed his reputation, and stole his child,,Tylee, away from him

That's why Lori keeps saying "just wait, you will all see the truth in time."
I’d bet more than three!
#4 - Lori’s husband.
#5 - Lori’s brother Alex. He died the day after Tammy was disinterred.
#6 - Lori’s former healthy husband, early on.
#7 - Lori’s sister Stacey?
And if we’re talking conspiracy to mur**** - Alex wife testified that he put her on a plastics sheet and possibly druged her at some point.
Plus the attempt on Melanie husband
And the talks about her children being “dark”.
Given the chance they would have gotten to more ppl.
Reality hit them in the face with that court order thank God.
I’m just wondering do they still believe the same things they did now? I think she does for sure otherwise she would have applied the insanity option.
I think Alex killed Stacy. He was the only one with her at the time and OF COURSE there was insurance money.
@@rowenakeeney and he was caught using her debit card AFTER she died. Creep
That guy was a piece of sh**
Great and thorough presentation by the prosecutor and in a very calm and professional manner. So much evidence to the crimers. How could Lori and Chad kept on breathing after what they have done together with Alex's "assitance". This is a horrific case like no other. It brings tears to our eyes to think about the kids and also Tammny and Charles. All premeditated, planned ahead. Using religion as a way to pretend they were so good when actually the 2 of them became what they have always been inside of them: MONSTERS!
So happy Rob Wood got to end this with the closing statement. Bravo to the whole prosecution. They better find her guilty
Well, his speech got me 😭 justice for those poor children.
Well described n well said as it is calmly n to the point!! I have no strength to do what he did. Justice for those who have died in this monster's hand. It's unbelievable how many people are hurt and affected by their senseless cringey crimes.
What they did to those two children is horrific😢 sometimes and I know we have laws ‘innocent until proven guilty’, because many have gone to prison that are innocent, but in instances like this case, I wish there was a law that, w the evidence they have, send them straight to the gallows. Put them to death instead of dragging out a trial.
I agree with you 💯 percent. Off with their heads.
Superb job on your closing remarks Mr. Woods!!!!
I burst into tears when he read about how JJ died. My son has special needs. It’s unimaginable.
I could see it all happening before me as the prosecution described the events. I do think when Alex brought jj in that night Alex had drugged him to make the attack easier for Chad and Lori. My gut tells me they killed jj in her bedroom
I have a grandson that has autism and adhd. I've cried so much I've had several migraines and had to miss a lot and catch up. It's horrific. Bless you and your son sweetheart ❤️
Can hardly breathe listening to Rob describe how JJ died suffocating
I know it kills me as a mother myself 😢
Oof, bad wording.
It's heartbreaking to hear the description of what they did to Tyler n JJ. It could stop your loved one's heart beating if you're not strong emotionally n psychologically.. so awful 😢😢
Looks like jail has taken a toll on her.
Happens to all of them. They go In looking relatively normal, and after around two years, they look drawn, and old.
Hopefully it only gets worse 🤞
She looks like the cowardly lion's evil twin.
Look at Jodi Arias before and after looks of jail
Also, I heard Lori didn’t change her name to Daybell because if ss found out she had remarried, she’d lose her money.
In the earlier days of the court proceedings, she wanted to be addressed as Ms. Daybell....
(but of course this was long after the arrest.... sooooo)
This prosecutor was awesome & really broke things down and timelined events beautifully 😍. Bravo to him. Goodbye Lori. It ought to be life WITHOUT parole.
Yes. Consecutive life sentences and no chance of parole 🙏
"We're out of money" Did she ever think of getting a job? She's a hairdresser & they can easily get a job no matter where they are. For a few hundred bucks they can rent a chair in a shop & be their own boss. After Chad told her she was the queen of the universe manual labor was beneath her. I think she was the main manipulator in the duo.
I agree!
Exactly
So do they think Alex helped kill Tammy too? Did he walk to the Daybell residence that night and leave his phone(s) in his vehicle? This whole case is an absolute nightmare! My heart breaks for all of the victims of these freaks!!
I'm pretty sure that Chad just strangled tammy
@@pinkpugginz that's what I thought too, but why would Alex go and randomly park nearby? Considering the defensive wounds on Tammy, I thought maybe she was fighting two people off and wish they could have gotten evidence from her body before she was buried if she had Alex's DNA on her!
This has been confusing me too. I also think Chad smothered her himself. But why was Alex down the street? Would Chad really let him come in his house and kill her while he watched or something? Wasn’t his son home?
*Lori's
@Terri exactly! I think the plan might have been to have Alex do it, but maybe the son stayed up late or something so Chad decided to do it himself and Alex was there as plan A that fell through! Just my guess.. trying to understand crazy people is difficult, but that's my best guess as to why he was there! I just can't imagine Tammy being unable to scream or something unless she was asleep when he attacked her. The son had to know something was happening!
While I do believe Alex shot Charles, I don’t believe he was dead from that first shot. I then believe Lori came and stood over Charles and taunted him as she’d been doing and then shot him close range while he’s laying helpless on the floor! I truly do! She is an evil woman! The autopsy explains the gunshot wounds.
BINGO!! 1000%
Melanie needs to be in jail too
Both Melanies, in my opinion.
Especially since there are texts about HER children and her husband had to take them and run.
💯
She was off on the timing, but HER world should be coming to an end tomorrow. Chosen one will take on a whole new meaning in prison.
I wonder if the lady that lied to police saying she had the children is going to get in trouble. She needs to.
I'm pretty sure she got immunity.
Her friend Mel did not lie for Lori. Lori told her to.
@@sherrydmyterko-tramp8654 umm yes Melanie DID lie to the police but then got scared and came clean!
She's a delusional twit.
She got immunity, it was Melanie Gibb. Lori's friend. Lori's neice is also named Melanie and IMO she 1000% should have been charged as well. She knew more than Melanie Gibb and it was her husband Alex shot at and missed. I think she was in on that plan but it ended up that Lori's neice didn't even have to testify, she got to go home.
Lori was shopping for wedding dresses as Tammy was being buried. Wow. Just when u thought u heard it all
And wedding rings before she was even killed
This is just like Chris watts sadistic mistress
Rings
Dresses
Etc before the family was taken our
It’s textbook with these individuals
@@NF40375 I still believe she should have had a tampering with evidence charge for deleting her texts. I'm not sure she knew he was going to kill everyone, but she sure pushed him into it happening.
Finally! I've been waiting all day for this!
It would take me all of 30 seconds to vote guilty.
Wow, great closing! Prayers the jury gets this right 🙏
Also prayers for the jury’s healing from having to hear and see the brutal bodies of those children and Tammy! 🙏🙏💙💜🌺🌸
I've followed the case for a while and followed the trial. I knew the details of the children's death.
But...the beginning of the closing, as he talks about them and their deaths. It had me crying. And I...I'm a fairly hard person.
No normal person can imagine what they did to those children without being upset. What they did is beyond horrific 😢 I couldn't even think of something like that up in my wildest dream, over anyone, especially children, MY OWN CHILDREN!! HOW?? And finding out they both knew what was happening made it sooo much worse. I've cried so much I've had many migraines because of it. She sits there like it's no big deal. I'll never understand!
Bless you, just know you're a good person!! ❤
Justice for all the people dead by these sick individuals serial killers, may they come back and haunt you every time you close your eyes sick sick sick
I had zero concept of the sheer volume of evidence the prosecution collected in this case. I am blown away at the magnitude of this investigation. Your dedication to seeking justice for all those callously tormented, tortured and murdered by these greedy invertebrates is to be applauded - whatever the outcome. More you all truly could not do. I salute you all.
This closing argument, methodically laid out and spoken about in a calm and measured manner, is breaking my heart. I am sobbing. The cruelty, spite, malice, revenge, subterfuge, nastiness of these things is beyond comprehension.
I think they should let her go free and let the public take care of this situation.
Lori will regret what she´d done.... someday... because she now has lots and lots of time to THINK. It will be agonizing for her. Lietecia, on the other hand will NEVER regret what she did, only that she got caught out
Thanks for the clip cut from the whole day
Man, these people are monsters.
Sick and disgusting people. Her own children, not just killed, slaughtered. Just no words for these monsters.
To make them suffer like that is so sickening. Couldn't do it in a way that was painless. I think lori enjoyed the violence.
there is NO way the jury can come back with anything other than guilty. the defense doesnt even have a defense! like COME ON!!!!
The defense just made it seem like lori was brain washed by the disgusting heartless monster of Chad
Oh God, those poor children. They should both get the death penalty. I feel sick…
They all thought they were above the law. One killer deceased the other 2 needs to spend the rest of their life in prison..
Senseless deaths based on greed, money n s_x
Unbelievable!!!
The defense got two things right: Zulema wanted to feel special and cool and Melanie Gibb wanted to feel included and superior! We’ll have to stomach that they go Kelly have immunity so we could get their testimony against Chad and Lori, but Melanie herself was so eager to tell Nate, “folks will say I only heard this stuff on the news, no, I know it firsthand, I was there, I knew it all” before the kids were found. They were all in deep together and they’re lucky as H not to be in prison themselves now!
I hope the Jury comes back with guilty all across the board.
I pray this jury does the right thing regarding this horrendous crime. No words can describe the evil in this story and the absence of any love or empathy is incomprehensible to normal people. These are MONSTERS and belong to be put away for EVER.
Can you imagine the terror of Tylee and JJ? Family killing family. Frightening
wow D.A. Rob Wood's words took me through the trial and painted the picture clearly. I've not been able to follow the trial. Now this is a closing argument while detailing the story. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have waited three loooonnnnnnngggggggg years to see this day
Me too. I am not a cry type but I have definitely had my moments with this case!
This is so hard to listen to. They are monsters
Forgive me for passing judgment by judging the book by the cover, but she just looks evil. 👹
She has the narcissistic smirk and eyes that say I’m above all of this 🙄
That’s not judgement
That’s observation and descriptive
I really am left to wonder how a woman could become so self deceived as to carry out such horrendous acts. She can't even blame drugs. Her face? Turning into a contortion. The LOVE of money. The root of all evil. Darkness and judgment coming for this country.
She has resented her kids for a looong time, imo.
I don't belive she was deceived, I'm convinced she was pulling the strings and Chad was happy to give her what she wanted. They just feed each other sickening motivation.
@@ceciliacrijnen9254neither do I.
@@ceciliacrijnen9254 Chad just listened to what she wanted, and what made her happy versus miserable, and he tried to make it all happen for her, i.e., give her the 'good', and banish the 'bad'. Lori didn't want to be a mother anymore. She wanted to be an exalted goddess. Unfortunately for her, there is no such thing in the world that Jesus Christ rules over. She and Chad were begging to be humbled, and they got it - bigtime. How dare they place themselves on equal terms with God Almighty.
When I was a a teenager my mother and I went to visit my granny and my Aunt, my cousin had gotten in trouble some kind of vandalism or something and the police were involved, and my aunt and Granny said that she wouldn't have done it had she not been under the influence of those other girls! My mother saw that I was listening to this conversation and she she said to me some let's go into bedroom for a minute. So we went in the bedroom and my mother said I am not scolding you at all just want you to know that I'm not scolding you. My mother proceeded to say; this is not right thinking, she said your cousin was equally as responsible for the trouble she got into because she chose to be in the company and she is equally as guilty as they are and there are consequences for her as well. Lori shows of her own free will to be in the presence of Chad and is equally for the death of her children and her husband and Chad's wife. The blame game has been going on since the very beginning of time Adam and Eve. Adam blamed Eve. The woman did give me and I did eat! Eve blamed the serpent. The serpent beguiled me and I did eat! The serpent may have beguiled them, but they chose to listen to the serpent! God gave them free will! And they chose to do the wrong thing! And the consequences were they got kicked out of the Garden of Eden. Every person is responsible for their own actions and they make their own choices end of story! Lori had a big part in killing her own children oh, she never wanted them in the first place, she only put on an act around other people to be a doting mother but deep down inside she wanted to be free of them! She is as equally guilty a killing her own children and chats wife and her husband and manipulating her brother into killing her husband as her protector but the only has the mind of a sixteen-year-old. She manipulated her brother and she is responsible! I don't know the the god that she's fabricated! My God said that shall not kill! My Jesus said and came not into the world to apply but to give life. This is definitely a cult mentality, but using God's name in vain is not saying the GD word, it is using God's name for gain of lust of money lust of the flesh and willing to do anything to fulfill your own perverted selfish desires. When Cain slew Abel in the Bible, God said to Kane, where's my brother Abel his blood cries up to me! And Cain said to God am I My Brother's Keeper! God is All-Seeing and all-knowing and not a leaf falls to the ground the Bible says that God doesn't know it. Chad and Lori are the most evil people I have ever seen right next to Charles Manson and all the other evil people that killed infant people special children. I hope they get the death penalty
From what I've gotten, Alex was easily manipulated by Lori. She could get him to do anything she wanted him to.
She basically told Chad they had to get rid of him because the police could get him to talk. They had some kind of hand in his death too.
Satan has been telling the same ole lie since before the foundation of the world: Disobey God and live.....
It's always the SAME ole lie.
Agree with you, I believe that they had something to do with Alex's death. I believe that when they killed Alex they thought that if they went to court they would try to lay the blame on Alex
@@EarthChickadee I think we can learn a lot about life through the 40 days and 40 nights that Jesus was in the wilderness being tempted of Satan. Satan says to Jesus, Fall Down and Worship me and I will give you all of this the Kingdom's the world because I have been given power over it. Just answered that's what love the Lord thy God and him only shall we serve. Satan offered Jesus money things lust of the flesh and Jesus was not all about that he loved the poor and the downtrodden and those that were told that they had sinned against God and that's why they were poor or lame or blind the self-righteous scribes and Pharisees of his day. And does self-righteous scribes and Pharisees live today and they worship more than they worship God. All the rich gather money put their trust and money like it's an insurance policy. Those who have done the right thing and suffer for it have put their trust in God. Our Blessed assurance policy is with God not things in possessions and anything that is lust of the flesh
@@debidriscoll8108 yes and with all the rumors about Lori and Alex her own brother, I believe that Lori sexually manipulated Alex and Chad into doing anything that she wanted done.
I still think her niece has a lot to do with it She knows a lot more than she's telling
Agree
It´s great to know that Lori and Chad will never see each other again and even better never TOUCH each other again! 🤮 How agonizing will that be for them? 😆They went through so much trouble all for NOTHING!!! KARMA
Good point.
Lori would have dumped Chad as soon as she was tired of him, even after all this. I'm sure she was already thinking of moving on, had they not been caught
Anybody with a heart will give the verdict of Guilty!
Hoping hard the jury finds this she-devil guilty on all counts.
I believe there are others, but this is a good place to start.
This is so heartbreaking 😢
Finally! Been waiting to hear this
I love, love, love that the prosecutor repeatedly said "Lori Vallow" instead of Lori Daybell. I am sure she hated that and it was like a jab every time he said it. Excellent job, sir!
After listening to this whole trial, I would be shocked if she weren’t found guilty!
Lori is a poor excuse of a mother. She is a poor excuse as a sister, friend,cousin etc.
She is the poor excuse of a Human being. Absolutely soulless and depraved.
Human.
Poor excuse of a human being
?????? Ummm
Apparently she was planning to kill her niece, Melanie's entire family for insurance and SS as well! Brandon Boudreaux is a hero!
This prosecution did a great job. A lot of moving parts to this case. They put a lot of work into this. I hope it pays off
I have a 2 year old son, 6 year old daughter and 8 year old son. I would never dream of having them murdered. That would be my ultimate NIGHTMARE. They trust me and love unconditionally. When children come along in life - you put their needs before your own. It’s just what any good parent should be doing. I can’t think of a greater betrayal than a parent murdering their own child.
Justice for
Charles, Tammy, Tylee, and JJ! ❤
Lori and Chad got caught up in the STORM!🤮🤮🤮 R.I.P. JJ & Tylee and Tammy and Charles ❤️❤️❤️
That Sketch Artist has to be the best in the entire state. 😂😂😂😂
Thank God for GPS and digital evidence.
Right
Unrelated: the court stenographer is really talented. :)
This & the Alex Murdaugh closing were excellent
My ❤heart goes out to both families effected by this monster. Love Hope and Faith.
They need to add a charge for stupidity because they are all guilty of it.
The closing arguments were brilliant. Such skill in the construction of the events. It is all tied together in a clear way in order for us to see how their evil plot started and progressed. What a huge amount of work!
Thank you so much for telling JJ and Tylee's story so eloquently.
This guy knows what he is doing as opposed to Lori's counsel who rambled through his closing.
The defense knows they had nothing to work with, the evidence is too strong.
This is so sad 😢 Justice for JJ and Tylee ❤️
And Tammy‼️‼️💔💔💔
And Charles!
Wish Lyndsay Blake had done closing,no disrespect to Ron wood. Just think delivery etc would have been more powerful, sincere, empathetic
It’s high time for justice for Tylee, JJ and Tammy. Charles also needs justice!
Poor Charles😢
IKR? The Chandler PD did him a huge disservice. It’s totally unbelievable that LE let Alex and Lori off Scott free, inexcusable incompetence on their part.
The Pager U ads
are obnoxious.
People are forgetting about poor Charles Vallow… if not for Lori he would still be alive and could have possibly save his children. May they all rest in peace.
Poor Charles 😢 his story makes me so sick … so tragic
She will go to trial for Charles' murder..
Justice for Tylee and JJ💔💔💔💔
Good job, prosecution 👏👏👏!
Fingers crossed for a guilty verdict. On all counts.
It'll be a wonderful birthday present to hear "guilty!"
