Kay Woodcock and Brandon Boudreaux are here for jury selection. They just walked into another room as we wait to go inside. Former juror Tass Reed-Tucker is here as well. She was on the jury for Daybell’s last trial.

In court for screenings of jury questionnaires for the Lori Daybell trial. Daybell is in her orange jumpsuit with her advisory counsel. Court striking and/or passing jurors by reviewing questionnaires. The court has agreed on ten jurors to remain in the pool so far. Dozens of questionnaires have been screened. Hardship issues vary from work to vacation to health. Many have heard about the Daybell case too.

Back in court for day 2 of jury selection in the Lori Vallow Daybell trial. She’s wearing a purple blouse under a black blazer. Judge says we have 52 jurors approved for follow up. Definitely more members of the public here today. Lori is sitting to the right of her paralegal and her advisory counsel are sitting behind her.

VALLOW DAYBELL: A motion to dismiss case for lack of speedy trial was filed by the ‘Doomsday Mom’, making some bold statements. I’ll break down the motion seen below. LVD says speedy trial should happen within 150 days of arraignment which was 12/7/23. 🧵


She is charged with conspiracy to commit murder in the death of former husband Charles Vallow, and attempted murder of ex nephew in law Brandon Boudreaux. Complex case mad it 270 days to hit speedy trial, previously scheduled for 8/1/24.
