Lori Vallow, the mother charged with conspiring to kill her two children and her new husband’s late wife, says she has an alibi, and that the kids were killed while they were at her late brother’s apartment.
The Arizona legal proceedings are on hold while the Idaho case is underway.
The family was living in a Phoenix suburb in July 2019 when Lori’s brother, Alex Cox, shot and killed Vallow. He asserted that the shooting was in self-defense after Vallow came at him with a baseball bat. Police investigated, but the case didn’t go far before Cox died of a blood clot in his lung later that year.
Meanwhile, JJ’s grandparents, Larry and Kay Woodcock of Louisiana, were growing increasingly worried about the kids, whom they weren’t able to reach on the phone. They said Lori Daybell wouldn’t tell them why the boy was always unavailable, and they asked police to check on the family. Prosecutors say the couple promoted the unusual beliefs to further their alleged plot to kill family members and steal their money, including the kids’ social security benefits.
