Jury begins deliberations in murder trial of Lori Vallow Daybell
Meanwhile, close to the home. We continue with our breaking coverage out of Ada County tonight, where several hours from now. Jurors will continue deliberating in the case against Lori Ballo. Grim two is Kyle Simchuk joining us with what to expect tomorrow. Kyle, well, those jurors deliberated for a few hours today and some were expecting a verdict, but a trial lawyer I talked to said with this amount of evidence and all the instructions they have to go through it could take some time. No one knows how long it'll take jurors to reach a verdict in the case against Lori Vallow, but the trial, which has lasted several weeks, has been full of shocking, sometimes disturbing testimony. The jury has seen images of the children alive and of the children disease that has an undeniable emotional impact on jurors.
Mohamoudi is a Seattle trial lawyer and says while jurors may feel emotionally exhausted, they also feel an overwhelming sense of responsibility to ensure they come to the right conclusion. The Eastern Idaho mom is accused of murdering her two children, Tylee and JJ and conspiring to kill her husband's ex wife. I think it's going to be a great day. JJ's grandfather Larry Woodcock, speaking to reporters outside the Ada County Courthouse, hopefully. We have a fair righteous verdict. This is swift. And Lori gets loaded in a van and taken to Polkatella where she belongs for the rest of her life.
Valo is being tried separately from her husband Chad Daybell, who was also accused in the murders. The two children were found buried on his property in 2020. Valo did not take the stand in her own defense. Amoudi says in his experience, most jurors do not expect the defendant to testify, which is their constitutional right. There's a lot of evidence to go to and a lot of instructions for the jury to deliberate on. So the jury is going to be brought up by the court. There's a lot of instructions for the jury to deliberate on.
So the jury comes back. Signals in one of two things that made up their mind. Calling into deliberation because the evidence was coming in and it was so overwhelming or two, they're not doing their job. Now cameras have not been allowed in the courtroom during the trial, but a judge will allow the verdict to be broadcast live. We will be watching closely from the court to see if there is any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of any evidence of.
