NOW: Hundreds gathering at #MarchForOurLives rally at the Arizona State Capitol. These rallies are happening across the country today to push for gun reform after recent deadly mass shootings in Uvalde to Buffalo. #fox10phoenix
Sam Crowell came from Chandler. She’s wearing Converse sneakers w/ a heart on them in honor of Maite Rodriguez. The 10yo victim in the Uvalde shooting wore similar shoes which reportedly helped identify her because she was mutilated so badly. #fox10phoenix#MarchForOurLives
An armed group arrives at the #MarchForOurLives rally. Probably at least seven people in tactical gear with rifles.
Hoffman: “I’m a mom and today I am angry… I am sick of being the whole country where guns outnumber the number of people.”
Hoffman: “As a mom and as an educator, I want our lawmakers to act now.”
.@JenLongdon - a gun violence survivor spoke at the rally and with us about the slow changes she sees happening. She was left paralyzed after a drive-by shooting in 2004. #MarchForOurLives

On Election Day, Judge Beresky set a last minute hearing for Lori Vallow with her new defense, this filing came in this morning. We didn’t have time for a camera request but I’ll be there in the courtroom to see what’s next w/ her Arizona murder conspiracy cases ahead of Rule 11.
Thanks to @cathyrusson for putting this on my radar!
I’m told Vallow did not refuse MCSO transport. She will be here. Her new counsel is seated and waiting in the courtroom.
COURTHOUSE CAMPOUT: Almost 6:30AM and we have about a dozen people in line waiting to get in at 8, including myself. Jury deliberations continue at 9. @NateNewsNow brought the crew donuts! #LoriVallowTrial
About 25-30 people waiting in line now as the courthouse is set to open in 15 mins or so. Could we get a verdict today? #LoriVallowTrial
We are now inside the courthouse, in another line for courtroom 400. The defense walked out just 5-10 minutes ago. Just a waiting game now.
Here at the Ada County Courthouse for Day 5 of testimony. It’s been a long week w/ a lot of evidence. Will start today’s thread here.
Also - everyone wish @NateNewsNow a happy birthday!
Lori Vallow just got seated. She has a black blazer and white pants with black pattern on them. Jim Archibald pours her a cup of water. She’s talking to both attorneys.
Det. Nate Duncan w/ @ChandlerPolice was on the stand yesterday, questioned about the murder of Charles Vallow in AZ. Prosecutors wanted to submit evidence the defense had issue w/ since it’s a separate case. State argued Idaho rule 404B says evidence is admissible to prove motive
