Do you happen to know the source of the information about Emma saying that? I’m coincidentally having a conversation about that exact topic with someone IRL right now, and I can’t find it here anywhere. We’re also discussing whether the coroner actually viewed Tammy’s body or the scene that day...

I know that the conversation has moved on to the change of venue motion, but I want to weigh in on spousal privilege. Based on the Idaho statute linked by indicolite22, IMO, spousal privilege wouldn’t apply to any of the current or future charges we’ve been discussing. If I’m understanding it...

That is interesting. I still think that Lori is going to flip on Chad and use a mental condition defense, which Idaho does allow per the PDF I linked in my previous post on Lori’s possible defense strategy: ID - Joshua Vallow, 7, & Tylee Ryan, 16, Rexburg, Sept 2019 *Arrests* #47 IMO, digital...

Yes, but IMO Chad and Lori say a lot of things. I don’t think for one second that he planned to sell that property with the bodies still buried on it. That doesn’t mean that he didn’t ultimately plan to sell it—but who knows? Chad and Lori’s version of the truth changes by the moment to suit...

I’ve considered that Lori and Alex took the kids to Yellowstone with a plan to kill one or both of them there, then had to abort the plan for some reason. If their original plan was to kill them there, I’m comfortable assuming that they planned to do so because they thought it was a good place...

I also wanted to quote Spartygirl’s post that indicolite22’s replied to (first quote above), but I’m either having some issues with the WS site, or it’s been deleted for some reason. (Since it’s still quoted within indicolite22’s post, I didn’t think it would be deleted?) Anyway, sorry...

I’m a few pages behind, so I’m not sure if anyone has already said this. I read that timeline entry a number of times, and then I came to this conclusion: Arizona authorities contacted Rexburg PD to serve a search warrant, and this contact went through the Madison County dispatch. The Madison...

Yes! I’m probably 30 pages behind on the thread right now. I just got past a lot of discussion on Prior asking about where the FBI actually excavated in the pet cemetery area, and I was hoping someone would get to this. Regardless of the dimensions of the pet cemetery, Prior will have a problem...

I love how we keep coming back to the raccoon. I think it’s because Chad’s text to Tammy is one of the few tangible bits of information we have directly from one of the perpetrators in relation to their crimes—even though the information itself is completely fabricated. For some reason, I’ve...

DBM ETA: I finally experienced the duplicate post issue. Now I see why it happens so often!

It went similarly after my father’s death two years ago due to prolonged illness. I expected the opposite because even the funeral home, who was familiar with his life insurance (group policy, government-affiliated), warned us that it would take forever to pay out. IIRC, it took only weeks...

@AZlawyer, this link explains what can happen with the judges when there is a change of venue in Idaho: I.R.C.P. 40.1. Change of Venue | Supreme Court Sounds like it aligns with your experience.

ITA. Also AFAIK (and someone already pointed this out upthread, but I can’t find the post right now), watching media coverage and/or following the case doesn’t preclude someone from serving on a jury, provided that they can swear to be an unbiased juror and are not otherwise dismissed for cause...

Yup, I’m betting they’re both angling toward a future change of venue. But IANAL and JMO.

All JMO. Assuming that JP can file this motion and ALSO request a change of venue later, that’s his strategy, IMO. Reading the document, I was struck by how the same examples used in it could also be used to support a change of venue. He’s probably seeing all the local support for Tammy and the...
