Judge Makes Key Rulings in Lori Daybell Murder Case.
The death penalty has been removed as an option in the trial for Lori Vallow Daybell, who is charged with multiple counts of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder for the deaths of her two children and Chad Daybell's previous wife. The decision only applies to Lori's case since their cases were separated last month. The ruling was made to ensure the defendant's right to a fair trial. The judge also addressed evidence motions, including a motion to exclude certain evidence from the trial, and warned Lori about the risk of going forward with the trial without a continuance. Lori is scheduled to be transported to the Ada County Jail by March 25, and jury selection begins on April 3.
