An Idaho judge has denied alleged 'cult mom' Lori Vallow's request for a joint, 30-minute 'strategy session' with her husband, Chad Daybell, ahead of their April murder trial.
Vallow and Daybell are charged with murdering Vallow's two children, seven-year-old Joshua "J.J." Vallow and 17-year-old Tylee Ryan, in September 2019, and their trial has been delayed several times since it was initially scheduled for 2021.
"After our court hearings today, I'd like an order from the court that we are allowed to spend 30 minutes together in a jury room, Lori and Chad and their attorneys. ... This is an important issue for my client," Archibald said, according to Eaton, who was reporting from inside the courtroom. " . . . The state sent us a letter asking if we wanted to settle the case or not.
The judge in September decided to ban cameras inside the courtroom for the trial, which was schedule to take place on Jan. 9 but was pushed back until April at Daybell's request. Meanwhile, Vallow has not waived her rights to a speedy trial, meaning she would like the trial to move forward as soon as possible.
The children were missing for several months — when police say the couple lied about the children’s whereabouts and then slipped away to Hawaii — before their bodies were found buried on Chad Daybell's property in rural Idaho.
