Doomsday Prophet Murder Trial | Vinnie Politan Investigates Podcast

PODCAST- Vinnie Politan investigates the bizarre world of Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow Daybell, commonly referred to as “The Doomsday Couple.” Both faced charges in the deaths of Lori’s two children, 7-year-old JJ Vallow and 16-year-old Tylee Ryan, and Chad’s first wife, Tammy Daybell. Last year, Lori was convicted on conspiracy and first-degree murder charges and is serving the first of three consecutive life sentences without parole. Chad is on trial now, where prosecutors say Chad and Lori used their spiritual beliefs to cover a carefully calculated plan fueled by money, sex and power to kill those who stood in the way. Meanwhile, Chad’s attorney says no evidence connects Chad to the children’s murders despite their remains being discovered in his backyard.

In this special podcast episode, Vinnie Politan will look back at some of the most memorable moments in his investigation into The Doomsday Couple. Lori Vallow’s other brother, Adam Cox, and her uncle, Rex Conner, join Vinnie to give an inside look at Lori’s complex family dynamic, the murders and Chad Daybell’s trial. In the second half of this episode, Vinnie and his guests discuss the timeline of Lori and Chad’s relationship and Chad’s children who have stood by their father’s side throughout the investigation.
