Lori Vallow Daybell Competent for Arizona Trial

Lori Vallow Daybell has been deemed competent to stand trial in Arizona for conspiring to murder her estranged husband, Charles Vallow, and her niece's ex-spouse, Brandon Boudreaux. This determination follows her previous convictions in Idaho, where she was sentenced to life in prison for conspiring in the deaths of her two children and her then-husband, Tammy Daybell. The trial is set to commence on February 24, 2025, after a judge confirmed her mental fitness based on evaluations by court-appointed doctors. Vallow Daybell's brother shot her fourth husband in 2019, claiming self-defense, while she later married Chad Daybell, who has been sentenced to death for the murders associated with her case. Prosecutors argue that the couple created a doomsday belief system that justified their actions. Notably, Vallow Daybell has expressed a desire to represent herself during the trial.
