Arizona Jury Convicts Lori Vallow Daybell in 2019 Attempted Murder Case
Lori Vallow Daybell was convicted by an Arizona jury for the 2019 attempted murder of Brandon Boudreaux, her niece's ex-husband. The trial followed a series of cases involving Daybell linked to multiple murders, including those of her two children and other family members, tied to alleged apocalyptic beliefs and financial motives involving life insurance policies. The jury deliberated for roughly 30 minutes after five days of testimony, including that of Boudreaux who described the shooting incident and his suspicions of Daybell and her brother's involvement. P
rosecutors presented evidence such as cellphone location data and video footage tying Daybell and her brother to the crime, asserting she aided in planning and facilitating the attempted murder. Daybell, representing herself, denied the charges and questioned the integrity of the evidence, suggesting potential tampering and redirecting blame towards others with alleged financial incentives. This conviction adds to her existing life sentence in Idaho for previous related convictions, reflecting ongoing legal consequences surrounding the complex, multi-state criminal cases involving Daybell.
