Lori Vallow Trial: Victim's relatives speak out ahead of closing arguments

A little more than three years after the so-called 'Doomsday Mom' was arrested, jurors will hear closing arguments in Lori Vallow's murder trial.

Vallow is accused of killing two of her kids, and conspiring with her husband, Chad Daybell, in the murder of Daybell's first wife, Tammy Daybell. If convicted, Vallow will not face the death penalty.

FOX 10's Justin Lum spoke with Tammy Daybell's family members, as they wait for a verdict in the case.

It was hard to hear that Melanie B (Lori's neice) thought of her own children as being "dark". To think of what could have been. Unbelievable case

[amandavanheerden]

Like most psychos Lori wore a mask of being a nice person, but her real self is pure evil. She is a master manipulator and habitual liar. There's no question - she knew her kids, Charles and Tammy were to be killed and she did nothing. After the kids went missing, she said nothing. Instead she lied about their whereabouts, but when questioned, she said she knew exactly where they were. The flurry of communications prior to the death of each person is a sure give away that they were in cohoots about it.

[evernit]

The woman should no longer be entitled to still holding the name of the man she got killed. They should address her either as Cox or Daybell instead. That's the least they can do with respect for the Vallow's family.

[Inismoon]

Lori knew what she was doing. Evil incarnate monster.

[adventurousfoodie]

When will she be moved to AZ for her trial for killing Charles Vallow? Why is she not referred to as a serial killer?

[laurenecarter]

I look forward to Melanie Pawlowski's trial.

[LifesPeachy]

*I love how the defense said "I don't think the state proved it's case!!* Yet they don't have one single person to stand in Lori's defense or any evidence to the contrary! Good job defense!

[JL-znme]

The defense thinks the State hasn’t proven their case? As scummy as that defense attorney is, I think he knows she’s dark, evil and dangerous! There was no one for them to call, everyone knows she’s guilty!

[lisabelle]

Psychopaths always 'seem' likable, don't they?

[WickedWest]

Sad to know there is still followers out there like BOTH Melanie's

[shelbyindianajones]

I love that she got served by the pool. Epic.

[lovepet]

Who here loves the fact
Lori's headed to a place with zero bikinis
👙 or ☀️ bathing
Or hair dye
Or vacations?

[Cattatgoddess]

If Melanie's hit was successful, then all her kids would probably be in Chad's yard too 😢

[GgTothemaxx]

The bikini video just proves how heartless and callous she is.... the kids were already dead and there she is like nothing bothers her!!!

[cor-zm]

Amazing how a person can even think of using “ religion” to justify her evil! Scary

[alphonsebladergroen]

She's absolutely guilty of all charges, because of the overwhelming evidence.

[SweetUniverse]

I'm surprised the church wasn't hit by lightning when Lori walked inside

[Nvrsettle]

God bless the victims of the “evil mob” . I pray they get some closure and are able to find a way to heal.

[figgy]

IMO, Just the way the bodies were found... what they did to the kids and Tammy says dark cold sinister things about her. She never thought the cops would get involved, that if she ignored Kay and Larry long enough it would all go away. So sad. Justin I love your shirt! Thanks for the report.

[wernervanderwalt]

The Lord will judge them! Very hard! We need not worry!
