Overview

• Lori Vallow Daybell was convicted of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder for the 2019 death of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, in Chandler, Arizona.
• Prosecutors argued that Vallow Daybell and her brother, Alex Cox, planned the killing to collect a $1 million life insurance payout and to enable her marriage to Chad Daybell.
• The jury deliberated for three hours over two days before delivering the guilty verdict; Vallow Daybell represented herself during the trial and called no witnesses.
• The prosecution presented evidence of staged crime scenes, text messages discussing life insurance, and religious justifications for the murder, including claims that Charles Vallow was possessed by an evil spirit.
• Already serving life sentences for the murders of her two children and Chad Daybell's first wife, Vallow Daybell faces another trial in June for conspiring to kill her niece’s ex-husband.
