Lori Vallow Daybell, notorious for her involvement in the deaths of her two children, an ex-husband, and the ex-wife of her fifth husband, has been convicted yet again. This time, she was found guilty of conspiring to kill Brandon Boudreaux, the ex-husband of her niece, in October 2019 in Arizona. This recent conviction adds to the three life sentences Daybell is already serving without the possibility of parole.

The 51-year-old Daybell’s conviction for plotting to kill Boudreaux comes on the heels of her previous convictions for the murders of her 7-year-old son Joshua “J.J.” Vallow, her 16-year-old daughter Tylee Ryan, and her fifth husband’s ex-wife Tammy Daybell, all of which occurred in 2019. Daybell’s involvement in multiple heinous crimes has shocked the nation and raised questions about her motives and mental state.
During the trial, it was revealed that Daybell conspired with her late brother Alex Cox to carry out the attempted murder of Boudreaux outside his home in Gilbert, Arizona. Cox, who has since passed away, allegedly shot at Boudreaux with a rifle, narrowly missing him but causing damage to his vehicle. Boudreaux bravely faced Daybell in court and spoke out after her conviction, expressing his sense of duty to seek justice for the victims in this tragic saga.
Daybell, representing herself during the trial, faced scrutiny from the judge and was even removed from court at one point due to her combative behavior. Despite the challenges in the courtroom, justice prevailed with Daybell being held accountable for her role in yet another sinister plot. The resilience and courage of those impacted by Daybell’s actions, such as Boudreaux and her only living child Colby Ryan, serve as a beacon of hope amidst the darkness of this case.
As Daybell awaits sentencing on July 25th, where she faces the possibility of two additional life sentences, the haunting reality of her crimes continues to unravel. Her pending extradition back to Idaho, where she will continue serving her existing life sentences related to the murders of her children and husband’s ex-wife, underscores the severity of her criminal activities. The legal proceedings surrounding Daybell serve as a stark reminder of the devastation caused by individuals who choose to inflict harm on others.
The community’s unwavering support for the victims and their families echoes a sentiment of unity and strength in the face of adversity. While the chapter of Daybell’s trial for the attempted murder of Boudreaux may be drawing to a close, the scars left by her actions will endure for a lifetime. The pursuit of justice in this case symbolizes a commitment to upholding the values of accountability and righteousness in the legal system, ensuring that those who commit heinous acts are held responsible for their crimes.
