The Doomsday Mother

H O L Y S H I T.

I followed this case from the very beginning. I could not wrap my head around a mother not actively trying to find her missing children, one of which is special needs. She instead tried to derail the investigation. But that's just who Lori Vallow is.

I've read many things that state none of this would have happened if she never met Chad Daybell, an end times preacher. The same has been said for Chad never meeting Lori. In reality, I think these two were a ticking time bomb. Together, the end times became their reality.

The amount of bodies piling up between these two people is absolutely insane.
Lori's sister? Dead.
Two of Lori's ex-husbands? Dead.
Two of Lori's kids? Dead.
Lori's brother? Dead.
Chad's ex-wife? Dead.
 
 Not to mention the attempted murders, actual murders, and assaults carried out by Alex, Lori's brother who is now dead.

Tylee and JJ went missing in 2019.
Nearly six months had passed before their remains were found buried on Chad's property. I was fully unaware of how gruesome their deaths were. It all happened so fast.... Charles was killed. Lori and the kids moved to Idaho to be closer to Chad. Tammy was killed. The kids were missing, while Lori and Chad flitted off to Hawaii to get married.

But their trials are obviously not moving nearly as fast.
As of January 2022, Lori has been deemed not fit to stand trial and has been placed in a mental health facility. Chad should be standing trial sometime this year, but considering his first trial date was set for November 2021, I'm not sure when it will happen.
