Idaho prosecutors have suggested motives, showed graphic photos and described a complicated plot involving efforts to cast out evil spirits in the triple murder trial of a woman accused in the deaths of her two kids and a romantic rival."The defendant used money, power and sex to get what she wanted," Fremont County Prosecutor Lindsey Blake told jurors during the first day of arguments."It didn't matter what it was.
Tylee's body had been burned, Blake said, and leaving behind only"a mass of bone and tissue" and some DNA on a pickaxe and shovel. Duct tape had been wrapped around JJ's hands and head, his body wrapped in trash bags.Tammy Daybell had died months earlier from what was initially reported as natural causes, purportedly dying her sleep in after coming down with an illness.
"Some people care less about Biblical prophesies, some people care a lot about it," Archibald said."Thankfully in this country, we get to worship as we choose." But Blake said those beliefs veered toward the extreme, with the couple saying people were"dark" or"light," telling friends and acquaintances that"dark" people had been taken over by evil spirits. They eventually began teaching friends that once those evil spirits were strong enough, the person became a"zombie," and the only way to free that person's soul was by killing them.
Woodcock said Vallow Daybell was once a"doting mother," but her opinion of the defendant changed after Charles Vallow filed for divorce in early 2019. After Charles Vallow died, once-regular phone calls and visits with JJ dropped off, she said. Prosecutors say the couple planned to use life insurance money from Tammy Daybell's death, and that Vallow Daybell kept collecting and spending the children's social security and survivor benefits after they died. Tylee's father died after he and Vallow Daybell divorced years earlier. JJ's father Charles Vallow — who Vallow Daybell was married to when she met Chad Daybell — was fatally shot by Vallow Daybell's brother, Alex Cox.
