Just spent an hour chatting with Saul Hernandez. He was juror #8 in the Lori Vallow Daybell trial. He told me he can now say he has truly seen evil. He was open about everything-from evidence to witnesses to deliberations. We will post the entire interview as soon as it’s edited

Back in the courtroom. Lori is with her attorneys, prosecutors are at their table. Personal note: I stopped by Winco & got a bag of candy. I promise not to eat it during the proceedings. My wife says my candy choices are similar to those of a 6-year-old. Smarties are the best!

Memorable moment this morning as realtor Ron Arnold testified in the #ChadDaybell trial. After the sidebar, Boyce informed the jurors that Arnold stated a true fact but it does not impact the facts of the case. Prior later called Arnold a “hostile” witness.

Interesting… @jlumfox10 clearly broke this story and is the only reporter who has seen the indictment - but no credit to him?.
Hey @NewsNation & @TVAshleigh - source local journalists responsible for the reporting you make look like your own. The hours & effort to get such info is no joke. BTW, the indictment came down in February of 2022, not “today” as mentioned in this clip.

Well make it count for Lori Vallow that Tylee Ryan will never go to college. That her remains were buried and put in a bucket. Make it count for Lori Vallow that JJ Vallow, a boy with special needs, had a plastic bag over his head and fought for his life.
