AZ - Lori Vallow Daybell charged w/ conspiring to kill ex-husband Charles Vallow and another relative, Brandon Boudreaux, Chandler, Maricopa County,

Yes. MOO murderers are mentally ill. The only thing the law is interested in regarding MH is whether the person can understand their actions.
Any type of planning or attempt to cover up the act shows understanding.

After arrest Lori Vallow was comitted to a criminal mental health hospital for "restoration" in 6 month stints.
This was to ensure she understood the charges and could participate in her defense.

So from what you say there needs to be proof that she planned and covered up ...... I can't think of the specific acts involved with this but they are there.
 
Lori's brother and uncle had a guest on their recent podcast episode, a woman from Lori's ward in Gilbert. Apparently Tylee told her best friend that Lori was losing it and that she called Tylee a zombie. Tylee was especially unhappy about having to move to Idaho.
I have a hard time with those podcasts, but I love reading/hearing tidbits like this.


MOO

MOO Planning is in the prepatory arrangements with her brother zombie talk with Chad.

Covering up, well one peoce of evidence is the video of Chad and Lori putting the kids possessions in a storage unit.

Lori's lies, such as to LE, such in Rexburgduring the wellness check, are clearly documented examples of her understanding well the laws she broke. She lied to not be detected. Even if she believed she was doing god's work, and I'm inclined to think she did believe that, she showed clear evidence of knowing human law. no matter how deluded she was, she knew murder was not acceptable in this realm, she knew she was in this realm, and she demonstrated that knowledge by lying and covering up her illegal actions.

MOO
 
Chad spun himself up a Morman offshoot cult starring himself as the leader.
And with the absolute power of a cult leader influenced a mistress he collected and her brother to kill her ex husband, then Chad and the brother killed mistress's children with her assistance and finally Chad killed his own wife.

And let’s not forget her words to the others as she pounded her hands on the counter and declared, “Doesn’t count for me” because as an exalted being she was not accountable for deeds in this life.

Mentally ill? ABSOLUTELY! But believing you are above the law doesn’t make it so or mean you are not responsible. I believe she is crazy like Charles Manson crazy and equally as dangerous.
 
That’s smart of him. He knows Chad needs a DP qualified team. Utah will foot the bill. I hope CD doesn’t get a lighter sentence.
He does not need a DP qualified lawyer via private counsel, so JP could stay on...Guess the $ ran out.

Once he can't afford to pay his lawyer, obviously that changes. However, I wouldn't be surprised to see JP stay on counsel with a state provided DP lawyer. Just my take
 
Prior knew for a year that Chad had no funds to pay him, yet he stayed on the case. At minimum he should have to remain on the case and perhaps be compensated at a public defenders rate. I call BS!

Another BS delay. MOO :mad:


JP has the house. I'd imagine that was well negotiated. My guess is that CD will be declared indigent, and at that point a DP qualified must be there, and I wouldn't be surprised to see JP in there as well. All at the expense of of the state.
 
So let me see if I’m following all this….
1) CD hired JP in May 2021 with his own funds - presumedly whatever was left over of the insurance money as well as his interest in the family home
2) the state, announces their intent to seek the death penalty in August 2021 but JP stays on the case as sole attorney
3) CD was declared indigent in January 2023 - in large part because JP had taken all his remaining funds and his home as payment
4) JP could have requested a death penalty qualified attorney be appointed at that time to be paid for by the state but chose to try to find one on his own and get him qualified and then paid for by the state - only that hasn’t worked out
5) the court was under no obligation to appoint death penalty, qualified attorney at that time because CD was already represented by counsel he retained with his own funds. And apparently JP could represent CD in a death penalty case without being death penalty qualified as long as he was paid by CD and not requesting payment from the state for his indigent client.
6) Had JP requested to be removed from the case a year ago or asked the court to appoint a state funded death penalty qualified attorney to assist him at that time they would be ready to proceed to trial as scheduled in April.
7) now, after failing in his attempt to have the death penalty removed, he wants completely off the case and new state appointed attorneys to have to start all over

if my understanding of the above is accurate, I do not believe the court will have any choice, but to appoint to death penalty, qualified attorneys as soon as possible. However I do not think JP should be allowed to withdraw from the case, but should remain on the defense team, not as the lead attorney any longer, but to assist a new counsel with his knowledge of the case to date. I don’t know if there are any legal grounds for forcing him to stay on the case but I believe he is manipulating the entire situation And that it would be wrong to allow him to walk away at this point. But I also think this motion and the timing of this motion demonstrate that he is exactly the kind of lawyer I have always thought he was. He’s given me the creeps all along.

I think if declared indigent, at that point the state will have to implement DP qualified lawyers. However, I'd be surprised if JP isn't on the team...all funded by the state. Just my take.
 
And let’s not forget her words to the others as she pounded her hands on the counter and declared, “Doesn’t count for me” because as an exalted being she was not accountable for deeds in this life.

Mentally ill? ABSOLUTELY! But believing you are above the law doesn’t make it so or mean you are not responsible. I believe she is crazy like Charles Manson crazy and equally as dangerous.
I’m not sure. There is a difference. Between being crazy and stupidly gullible. She reminds me of all the people I met walking on hot coals, sweating in teepees, sleeping under pyramids, digging underground shelters, seeing auras talking in tongues, etc etc. Not nuts. Just not too bright.
 
To lazy to look back & see if this has been posted yet... :)
