'Doomsday mum' guilty of murdering kids and plotting to kill husband's ex-wife

‘Doomsday mum’ Lori Vallow Daybell has been found guilty of murdering her two children and conspiring to kill her husband’s ex-wife.

A jury of seven men and five women reached a verdict in the high-profile case on Friday afternoon. Jurors began deliberating on Thursday afternoon, and reached the unanimous verdict that was read in Boise, Idaho.

Vallow Daybell, 49, appeared emotionless as the verdict was read.

She has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder and three counts of conspiring in the deaths of her kids Tylee Ryan, 16, and Joshua ‘JJ’ Vallow, 7, and her husband Chad Daybell’s former wife Tammy Daybell, 49.

Vallow Daybell faces life in prison over the 2019 deaths.

She had pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Prosecuting attorneys from Madison and Fremont counties stated that they were ‘very pleased with the jury’s verdict’.

‘We want to thank them, as well as the alternates, for their service over last six weeks during this trial,’ they stated.

‘Given the pending case against the co-defendant, we are unable to conduct any additional interviews or discuss further details of this matter. We want to assure each of you that we remain committed to pursuing justice for Tylee Ryan, JJ Vallow and Tammy Daybell.’

Tammy Daybell in October 2019 died in her sleep. Daybell Vallow married Chad Daybell just weeks after.

Vallow Daybell’s sentencing is not expected for at least three months. She will be held in custody until then.
