The prosecutor for the cases says the witnesses and evidence are the same in both cases. Having the cases combined would be more efficient for those involved, he said.

Prosecutor wants to combine the cases against Chad and Lori Daybell | East Idaho News

Special Prosecutor Rob Wood has asked District Judges Dane Watkins Jr. and Steven Boyce to combine the cases in a motion filed on Tuesday. In the documents, Wood says the cases should be combined based on the fact that charges against the Daybells allege they participated and or conspired in an act or series of actions.

“Trials in these matters will require the same witnesses and evidence be presented by the State,” Wood wrote in a six-page memorandum supporting the motion. “In order to preserve judicial economy and efficiency, avoid delays in bringing either defendant to trial, and for the benefit of the witnesses and victims, these cases should be joined.”

Mark Means, Lori Vallow Daybell’s attorney, has updated his post. Kay Woodcock tells me she and Larry were wearing microphones on their drive over to the courthouse (they are working on a documentary) and took them off when they got out of their truck. She says they never tried to wear them into the courthouse.
“Means is trying to make us the bad guys. Maybe he’ll make Tylee and JJ the bad guys in the courtroom to make it appear like Lori had a reason to murder them,” Kay says.

Chad Daybell's attorney feels that there isn't a fair or unbiased jury in Fremont County. He did not specify where he would like the trial moved.

Chad Daybell's attorney asks to move trial from Fremont County | East Idaho News

The defense attorney for Chad Daybell is asking the trial be moved from Fremont County because “a fair and impartial jury” can not be found.

In the motion filed Friday, John Prior says he will support his claims in forthcoming papers, pleadings and memorandums. Prior is asking that oral arguments be held in regard to changing the venue. He does not give suggestions as to where he thinks the trial should be moved.

Prior has hinted at moving locations in the past. Last month, three people in Fremont County told EastIdahoNews.com that a woman approached them and said she had been hired by a Boise firm to conduct surveys about the case.

The defense lacks the resources of the prosecution (State of Idaho, Attorney General of Idaho, FBI, chandler police, Madison county sheriff department, Fremont county sheriff department, Rexburg police, etc) We need the persons of knowledge to come forward!
 
From October 20th -


The hearing on a motion to dismiss the case against Chad Daybell has been postponed.

It was scheduled for Oct. 29 but Daybell’s attorney, John Prior, asked for it to be continued because he and prosecutor Rob Wood just received the preliminary hearing transcript and need more time to prepare. The hearing will now happen on Nov. 24 at 9 a.m.

On Nov. 24, Prior is also expected to ask that Chad’s trial be moved out of Fremont County

Daybell's hearing to dismiss case postponed - East Idaho News
 
Lori Vallow Daybell’s attorney is making another request to the Madison County Prosecutor’s Office for more information related to his client’s case.

Mark Means sent an eight-page letter to Prosecuting Attorney Rob Wood last week as a follow-up to Wood’s response to three requests Means filed in March and April. [...]

In his letter, dated Oct. 19, Means says Wood’s responses were not sufficient. EastIdahoNews.com obtained a copy of the letter from a source not in the Madison County Prosecutor’s Office. [...]

Wood issued the following statement to EastIdahoNews.com about the letter:

In our American justice system, prosecutors have a solemn obligation to ensure a fair trial for every defendant. This is a responsibility that I take just as seriously as I take my obligation to protect the safety of this community.


An important part of ensuring a fair trial for the defendant is to provide appropriate information pertaining to the case to defense counsel. We have provided Mr. Means with a large amount of the information he requested as well as items he didn’t request. Given the complexity of this investigation, additional information is still in the hands of investigators and analysts and will be provided to the defense as soon as it becomes available.

Another critical part of protecting the defendant’s right to a fair trial is the avoidance of unnecessary pre-trial publicity, such as the inappropriate release of this letter. For this reason, we have not and will not attempt to litigate this matter in the media.


Lori Daybell's attorney requests information on more than 15 people from Madison prosecutor - East Idaho News
 

The jury trials for Chad and Lori Daybell will be combined following a ruling by District Judge Steven Boyce Thursday morning. [29th October 2020]

During the hearing, Chad Daybell, alongside his attorney, John Prior, appeared over Zoom alongside the judge and Special Prosecutor Rob Wood.

[...]

Both Prior and Wood mentioned that a motion for severance could be filed at a later date such as if a plea agreement or other resolution to the case was met by one of the defendants.


Before making his ruling, Boyce said under Idaho Criminal Rule two people can be tried together when the defendants are accused of participating in the same act.

Lori’s attorney Mark Means was not part of the hearing, because he does not object to having the cases combined.
