East Idaho news is one of the only news sources who followed this case!

I would have given the world to have had children. These two were COMPLETELY PRECIOUS! How could they be discarded by such creatures? 😫😭

[margretsmith]

Such evil
Just brakes my heart ...
Why couldn't they just given them to their grandparents ? Why did they have to kill those beautiful, precious children..

Thanks Eric. You do a fantastic job reporting and I hope you realize you have an excellent mentor in Nate.

[Paula-pokx]

Thank you Eric and East Idaho News. Such a devastating case.

How do you love and provide for your own children their whole lives, then decide one day that you don't want them on this earth anymore? Tylee was even old enough to take care of herself, and her little brother if only she had been given the chance, or even better let them live with family. There's no reason why that psychopath of a mother decided to take their beautiful lives, other than so she could lay up with some man uninterrupted. If there ever was a reason for a public execution this would be it! Rest in peace angels 🕊️💜🕊️...

My deepest sympathy to those young innocent kids. RIP

Nate and Eric have done a respectful coverage on these crimes.
Lori’s mental health follies won’t continue on forever. Lack of empathy is her problem.

With Tammy Daybell's autopsy report showing evidence of murder, how does he sit there and plead not guilty. Unless he is trying to save face in front of his kids. When the axe comes down, let's hope it breaks his psyche so he can grasp the gravity of his actions. I hope they have enough evidence for Tylee and JJ's deaths to put him away for good. He will have very heavy karma to pay.

Oh how convenient she gets to go to a psych facility! More like a cop out facility! 😡

[reneeratliff]

God bless everyone that has been damaged by Chad and Lory.

[longbaproverbswoman]

How ironic that Mr.Daybell was in court today.

[patriciasmith]

lets hope they get justice for their murders cant believe whats going on at the moment with them two monsters trying to avoid whats coming to them

[dianebinns]

Lori is going to stay crazy. So she doesn't get death. Terrible! Those 2 little Angel's. R.I.P. Just to think both her and her husband was the devil all a long.

[kathieponder]

I am so sad in how this case is progressing. Now Lori will be in an institution and still being cared for - now by tax payers money. Chad is no different than Charles Mason....there is NO justice. Very angry.

This was a shocking, heartbreaking day… that has not changed. I cannot believe what was done to these two angels. I know we all had love and hope in our hearts. It doesn’t feel like a year has gone by. I will never forget Tylee, JJ and Charles. How badly I wish they were still here and authorities had listened to Charles. 💜🙏🏻

R.I.P precious angels xxx hope whoever did this rot in prison slowly and painfully

[qamar]

If I was the judge in this case before reading the charges, I would have said “Mr Daybell, I feel somewhat silly to address you in my court today, as I know this very day will not come as a surprise to you, as you would have already foreseen it long ago, with your visions and that you were going to be charged with the following offences and face the death penalty, in this current reincarnation of your life”.

In all seriousness, I hope those beautiful kids get justice.

[foreignenvy]

Beautiful children Rest In Peace taylee and jj! We all love u and are praying u get justice so u can rest easy!

[geraldine]

My heart still aches for the ones killed and found in Chad's back yard. Isn't he a grave digger? GOD IS NOT THROUGH WITH HIM AND LORI. It also aches for Charles- a trap was set for him - that's what I believe. He foretold his death.
