Lori Vallow Daybell faces trial in Arizona for her ex-husband’s death

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) – Lori Vallow DaybellThe so-called ‘Doomsday Mother’ is serving three consecutive life sentences for her role in the deaths of two of her children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and her then-boyfriend’s wife, Tammy Daybell.

Vallow Daybell’s trial took place in Idaho, but he will next face trial in Arizona for conspiracy to murder her fourth husband, Carlos Vallow.

In 2019, Charles was shot and killed by Lori’s late brother Alex, who claimed self-defense. Larry Woodcock, Charles’s brother-in-law, believes it was murder.

“Everything Lori does is a lie. Now the lie is, ‘It wasn’t me, it was Tylee,’” Woodcock said.

Charles was the brother of Woodcock’s wife, Kay. He does not speak publicly because he is scheduled to be a witness in the trial.

“The conviction in Arizona is important to Kay and me,” Larry Woodcock said. “The conviction is closure that Charles deserves. Charles is very well known in this city. “Charles has a lot of friends in this city.”

Vallow Daybell has requested a hearing to see if she is mentally competent to stand trial, meaning she can assist her attorney in her own defense. She is also asking to represent herself in Arizona.

“Lori knows how to use the system. She is famous for that. I think she’ll try the same thing here,” Woodcock said.

The Arizona judge is expected to wait for the results of the mental evaluation before deciding whether Vallow Daybell can represent herself. His trial was expected to take place on February 27, 2025, but this is now uncertain.

In addition to a murder charge in the death of her husband, Vallow Daybell also faces an attempted murder charge in connection with the shooting of her niece’s husband.
