Lori Vallow Daybell trial concludes as prosecution rests

News summary

The prosecution has rested its case in Lori Vallow Daybell's Arizona trial, where she is charged with conspiring to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, and the defense, with Vallow Daybell representing herself, is expected to rest as well without calling any witnesses. Prosecutors presented electronic evidence and testimony suggesting Vallow Daybell conspired with her brother, Alex Cox, motivated by life insurance money and her relationship with Chad Daybell, and that she used false emails and messaging to facilitate the plot. Vallow Daybell disputes the conspiracy claim, arguing her brother acted in self-defense, but the judge denied her motion for acquittal, stating enough evidence exists for the jury to decide. The trial revealed her prior conviction in Idaho for the murders of her children and a romantic rival, and highlighted her doomsday religious beliefs as a possible motive. Closing arguments are scheduled for Monday, after which the jury will deliberate. If convicted, Vallow Daybell faces a potential life sentence.
