Cult Mom" Lori Vallow Claims SHE'S The Victim — Prosecutors Just Ended Her Appeal
Podcast:Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary Published On: Wed Jan 14 2026 Description: Lori Vallow Daybell murdered her two children. A jury said so. Now she's arguing that her constitutional rights were violated and she deserves a new trial. Prosecutors in Idaho just filed a 59-page response that tears every single claim apart. Her attorney had an impossible conflict of interest — representing both Lori and Chad Daybell simultaneously while Chad paid the bills. She was found incompetent twice, accounting for nearly a year of delays she's now complaining about. The Arizona evidence she wanted excluded? It proved the entire pattern: Chad declares someone has a "dark spirit," Alex Cox kills them, and Lori collects the insurance money. That's not prejudicial — that's the blueprint. We go through each of her five claims and show you exactly why this appeal has no foundation. Seven-year-old JJ was found with a plastic bag taped over his head, his wrists and ankles bound. Sixteen-year-old Tylee was burned and dismembered. Their mother spent those months in Hawaii, collecting their Social Security checks and marrying Chad Daybell. And now, from a prison cell, she's still playing the victim. The Idaho Supreme Court hasn't scheduled oral arguments yet. But based on the state's devastating response, this appeal is going nowhere.#LoriVallow #ChadDaybell #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #CultMom #JJVallow #TyleeRyan #IdahoSupremeCourt #Appeal #JusticeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
