Idaho Mother Lori Vallow Found Guilty Of Murdering Two Of Her Children

Vallow was charged in the deaths of Joshua “JJ” Vallow, 7, and Tylee Ryan, 16, as well as her husband’s first wife, Tammy Daybell.

The murder trial of Idaho matriarch Lori Vallow, who was accused of killing two of her children and conspiring to kill her husband’s first wife, ended on Friday with a complete conviction on all charges.

Vallow, charged with murder, conspiracy and grand theft in the deaths of Joshua “JJ” Vallow and Tylee Ryan, reached his verdict Friday in Boise.

Tylee, 16, and Joshua, 7, went missing in September 2019. Upon their disappearance, police began a monthslong search that ended when Chad Daybell, Vallow’s fifth husband, discovered their remains on his property in June 2020.

A murder and conspiracy charge was filed against Daybell in connection with the deaths of the children. The date of his separate trial has not yet been determined.
