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.
