In Chad's cult Alex was assigned a special role. He came from being a nobody in the beginning (with no multiple creations) to a holy man with distinguished past lives as a warrior, who would be instrumental in assisting Chad and Lori in herding the 144k and fighting zombies along the way. Chad gave him several blessings that stroke his ego. Alex was convinced that Charles', the children's and Tammy's spirits had left their bodies which were inhabited by demons. They were just zombies now and killing the bodies was helping them to progress onto next lives. Before he died, feeling abandoned by C&L, Alex expressed some doubt, allegedly stating "Either I'm a man of God, or I'm not." Earlier he is also heard on a recording saying something to the effect of "There's no more work to do here in Rexburg." His mission in Rexburg was to kill three zombies. He had been thoroughly brainwashed.
Oh my gosh, Ii was just re-watching the interview with Alex's comedian friend and listen to what she says starting shortly after 55:29!!!
Alex's friend is speculating that Lori killed Tylee in the middle of the night and then called Alex to deal with the situation. IMO Tylee's murder was premeditated (Chad's wind direction search the previous day) and Tylee could have fought Lori off (JJ was also in the home). There must have been two people involved. Tammy's death was probably very similar to Tylee's, but with Chad assisting Alex. Far less evidence would have been left behind at the crime scene than in a stabbing or a shooting. Toxicology didn't show any drugs either.
I didn't listen to the testimony about Tylee's autopsy and condition of her remains, just read posts here. I know there was stuff about sharp injuries to her bones, right? I don't mean just the garden tools. This makes me think that Lori stabbed her or used a meat cleaver to kill her. When Lori threatened Audrey, she talked about all of the blood and BLEACH that would be involved. She may have mentioned bleach because she used it to clean up after killing Tylee. That stuff she said to Audrey was absolutely chilling and sounded as though she'd done it before.
I doubt Lori wanted a bloody scene to clean up in the apartment. There would be blood spatter left behind. Stabbing someone in the groin area also wouldn't have prevented them from screaming. Suffocation is much quieter and less messy.
Yes the state said they thought their rebuttal would last 1 1/2 to 2 days….and I’m still hoping for jail calls between CD & EDM
I think that story encapsulates the expectations on Tammy.
I assumed that the door could have been locked up from the outside (common where I live).
Hmmm. Except in rental situations where rooms are for rent from the LL, and not by a group of people as roommates, I haven't seen that.
I'm in Europe. So Lori must have been locked in her room when MG knocked on the door? Maybe JJ was at Alex's place. He could have been murdered before 4am. What was Lori's story about JJ climbing the cabinets? When did JJ wake up? (IMO he didn't.) Wouldn't MG have heard the commotion?
And we know Tammy had frozen meals. She was bringing some home when the “paintball gun” incident occurred. Also, I don’t buy that someone as supposedly health-conscious as Tammy would even touch McDonald’s, let alone have a favorite burger choice from there and stay up waiting for her son to get it for her.
Their car convo about continuing to replenish Lori’s communications account sounded to me like it was already routine.
