Closing Arguments Set in Lori Vallow Daybell Murder Conspiracy Trial

Lori Vallow Daybell, already convicted in Idaho for murdering her children and conspiring to kill her husband's first wife, is now on trial in Arizona for conspiracy to commit the murder of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. She is representing herself and has chosen not to call any witnesses or present evidence, with closing arguments scheduled for Monday after jury instructions. Prosecutors allege Vallow Daybell conspired with her brother, Alex Cox, to kill Charles Vallow to access his life insurance and marry Chad Daybell, who was also convicted of murder in Idaho. Vallow Daybell claimed the killing was in self-defense, but her motion to dismiss the Arizona case due to lack of evidence was denied by the judge. The trial has drawn significant public attention, with live updates and delayed video streams permitted from the courtroom. If convicted in Arizona, Vallow Daybell faces a life sentence without the possibility of release for at least 25 years.
