Idaho prosecutors told jurors that a woman charged with murder in the slayings of her two youngest children and a romantic rival in a bizarre doomsday-focused plot wanted their money
wanted their money, so she used sex and power to manipulate her brother and a lover into carrying out the crimes, Idaho prosecutors told jurors Thursday.," Madison County Prosecutor Rob Wood said, urging the jury to convict Lori Vallow Daybell for the deaths of 7-year-old Joshua"JJ" Vallow, 16-year-old Tylee Ryan, and her fifth husband's previous wife Tammy Daybell.
Vallow Daybell and her husband, Chad Daybell, are both charged with murder, conspiracy and grand theft in the three deaths. Prosecutors say the two worked with Vallow Daybell's brother, Alex Cox, to carry out the crimes. Both defendants have pleaded not guilty to conspiracy, murder and grand theft. Vallow Daybell faces up to life in prison if she is convicted. Chad Daybell’s trial is still months away.“The plan that she set in motion must end today in the verdicts you render in this trial,” Wood said.“Tylee's body was burned beyond recognition. Her body was dismembered in such a grotesque and extreme manner,” that the medical examiner couldn't determine the cause of death, Wood said.
Evidence shows JJ struggled, Wood said, and at one point the boy's arms and legs were bound with duct tape.
