Murder trial for Chad and Lori Vallow Daybell will be held together

The murder trial for Chad and Lori Vallow Daybell will be held together after a judge rejected a request to separate the cases.

In a memorandum filed Monday, District Judge Steven Boyce denied a motion to sever the trials by Chad Daybell’s attorney.

Chad and Lori Daybell are charged with multiple counts of conspiracy to commit murder and first-degree murder in relation to the deaths of “JJ” Vallow, Tylee Ryan — two of Lori’s kids — and Chad’s first wife, Tammy Daybell.

EastIdahoNews reports, Lori Daybell’s case has been on hold since June, as she was declared incompetent for trial.

Chad Daybell’s attorney has also filed a motion to have the indictment and death penalty against Chad Daybell dismissed. A hearing on those issues is scheduled for Wednesday.
