'Doomsday Mom' Lori Vallow seeks new murder conspiracy trial, claiming juror misconduct
Share this @internewscast.com

So-called “Doomsday Mom” Lori Vallow Daybell is presently requesting a new trial barely under two weeks after a jury reached a verdict that found her guilty of conspiring to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow.

Within recently unveiled court documents, Vallow Daybell is alleging that Juror 15 mentioned in a local television interview their awareness of her previous murder convictions in Idaho, though these convictions were not referenced during the trial proceedings.

According to the court documents, during a post-trial interview with the juror, Vallow Daybell, who acted as her own defense, recounted that Juror 15 expressed a reaction to learning of her previous convictions by saying, “You know, I feel sorry for her. Driving home yesterday, I was like, ‘God she’s spending the next three lives in prison in a cell …’”

Vallow Daybell and Chad Daybell were convicted of the 2019 murders of two of Vallow’s children, 7-year-old Joshua “JJ” Vallow and 16-year-old Tylee Ryan. The couple, who believed some people had dark spirits and shared apocalyptic religious beliefs, were also convicted of murdering Chad Daybell’s first wife, Tammy Daybell. They were sentenced to life in prison. 

“All of these comments add up to prosecutorial misconduct.”

Vallow Daybell is scheduled to go on trial in Phoenix in May for an alleged plot to kill her niece’s ex-husband after a judge denied her motion to dismiss the case.

She previously explained to True Crime Arizona that she had been “working on her case for five years” and knows it “better than an attorney can learn it in two years” after making the decision to represent herself.
