Lori Vallow Daybell Begins Self-Representation in Arizona Murder Conspiracy Trial

Jury selection has started for the trial addressing the alleged conspiracy to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, as Vallow Daybell continues to serve life sentences for prior convictions.

Lori Vallow Daybell, already serving life sentences in Idaho for the murders of her children and Tammy Daybell, is now standing trial in Arizona for conspiring to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow.
Jury selection began on March 31, 2025, with opening statements scheduled for early April; the trial is expected to continue through May 2025.
Vallow Daybell is representing herself in court, a decision that has raised concerns about the complexity of the trial and jury selection process.
Prosecutors allege that Vallow Daybell conspired with her now-deceased brother, Alex Cox, in Charles Vallow's 2019 shooting death, which Cox claimed was self-defense at the time.
This trial marks another chapter in a case involving multiple murders, religious extremism, and family tragedy, with Vallow Daybell also facing a separate Arizona charge for conspiring to murder her niece's ex-husband, Brandon Boudreaux.
