Lori Vallow Daybell has been found guilty of murdering her two children and conspiring to murder her fifth husband's first wife. Lori was charged with murdering and conspiring to murder
her son 7-year-old Joshua "J.J." Vallow and her daughter 16-year-old Tylee Ryan and conspiring to murder Tammy Daybell. Tammy, 49, was married to Lori's fifth husband Chad
Daybell for nearly 30 years before her death. All of the murders took place in 2019. In addition to the murder and conspiracy charges, Lori was also charged and found guilty of grand theft.
While the verdict was read, Lori displayed no visible emotion. She looked at the clerk reading the verdict and looked down at times. Her hands were clasped in front of her. She wore a black
jacket, a black top and black pants. After the verdict was delivered, she calmly walked out of the courtroom without saying anything to her attorneys. The trial lasted almost seven weeks and
answered numerous questions in relation to the untimely deaths of J.J., Tylee and Tammy. During opening statements, Fremont County Prosecuting Attorney Lindsey Blake revealed that
Tammy's cause of death was asphyxiation. "[Tammy] died at the hands of another," Blake said. On Oct. 19, 2019 — weeks after J.J. and Tylee disappeared — Chad Daybell reported
Tammy's death, saying she had gone to bed with a cough and didn't wake up. The manner of death was initially ruled as "natural causes," and no autopsy was done. However,
her death was later deemed "suspicious," and her body was exhumed for an autopsy to be conducted. On November 5 of that same year, Lori and Chad — an author who wrote about
doomsday scenarios — married in Hawaii. Later in the trial and nearly three years after siblings J.J. and Tylee were found buried on Chad's Idaho property, J.J.'s cause of death
was also revealed to be asphyxiation. Dr. Garth Warren, a forensic pathologist, said J.J. was asphyxiated with a plastic bag and duct tape over his mouth, according to _East Idaho News_,
KTVB reporter Alexandra Duggan and Fox 10. Tylee's manner of death was homicide, but her cause death was undetermined, according to the outlets. Her autopsy took several days because
her remains were not found intact. "This autopsy was different," Warren said, _East Idaho News _reports. "The vast majority of the time when I perform an autopsy, I get an
entire body and there's a process we go through. Tylee's case was different. Her remains were received in three separate sealed bags." _WANT TO KEEP UP WITH THE LATEST CRIME

witnesses took the stand, including Lori's surviving son, Colby Ryan, and her sister, Summer Cox Shiflet. Both Colby and Summer cried as they spoke about J.J. and Tylee. Colby described
his mother, saying that for much of his life, she protected her children and supported him. He also said that throughout his childhood, he loved Lori and didn't think she could hurt
someone — until she met Chad. "My mom has spent her whole life protecting us kids," Colby said on the stand. "After she met Chad Daybell, she changed." Chad, 54, is
charged in connection with the deaths of Tylee, J.J. and Tammy, but will be tried at a separate trial. He has pleaded not guilty. Lori will be sentenced at a later time. After the verdict,
prosecutors Rob Wood and Lindsey Blake released a statement saying, "We are very pleased with the jury's verdict, and we want to thank them, as well as the alternates, for their
service over last six weeks during this trial. Given the pending case against the co-defendant [Chad Daybell], we are unable to conduct any additional interviews or discuss further details
of this matter. We want to assure each of you that we remain committed to pursuing justice for Tylee Ryan, JJ Vallow and Tammy Daybell." The statement added, "We also want to
express sincere appreciation to the many members of law enforcement and the community who tirelessly worked together to hold Lori Vallow Daybell accountable." _If you suspect child
