@@gsmith6026 Correct! According to Melanie Gibb, they first met at a Preparing A People event in St. George, UT on 10/26/2018. On 10/30/2018, Chad sent Lori an email with the light/dark ratings of her family members. Tylee was rated a 4.1D and her dad Joseph Ryan was rated a 4.3D and marked as "sealed away." Sealed away probably because Joe was found dead on 4/3/2018. However, I believe Alex was still Lori's sole henchman at the time Charles was killed on 7/11/19. I also believe Lori replaced Alex with Chad as her henchman sometime afterward though.
Colby lost both of his siblings, his father, his stepfather, his aunts and his uncle and his mother, too. I can’t imagine the pain he goes through.
How devastating
Chad and Lori destroyed so many lives - selfishly only thinking of themselves
He is heartbroken still. So sad for him. He lost his mom, dad and siblings.
The fact that Chad is fighting this and not just doing some sort of plea deal is so effed. Like he really is super evil. It's the least he could do for the survivors😢 it says sooooo much about him.
My heart breaks for this young man and his family to nothing he did he has become an orphan and an only child ! that Chad and Lori stole from him and his children was a grandpa dad uncle auntie nephew and nieces that will never be born. Christmas they will never share so many things Chad robbed him of, Chad selfish lust and need for power killed his entire family by brainwashing his mother and uncle Lori she's a lost cause. She's like one of the Manson girls. It's going to take decades to deprogram this one
WHY did she lie to him about how his stepdad died? Will we ever know this?
Prior has nothing to work with here. Chad still looks guilty. My heart goes out to Colby. That questioning must have been very difficult.
I could see Lori Vallow being influenced by Chad Daybell if she thought it might benefit her or suit her purposes. It seems to me that the pattern was that Lori Vallows relationships were transactional, and that all resources were used to that end, including the use and disregard of her children. She would not be confrontational because it would not be an effective means of manipulation.

Feel so sorry for Colby. I got so emotional watching him.. the defense technique is to make all the people testify look bad and defend Chad that he did not do anything wrong. Chad is not innocent. and I hope and pray that all the jurors could see how manipulative, ugly, evil, and criminal minded he is...and finds him guilty. It will be injustice if he walks or found not guilty. I feel like the defense attorney has a similar mindset of Chad... Maybe that's why he took his case.. Otherwise, no money is worth... fighting for an evil person like Chad...

Chad was looking and using that line on several women before lori. He went on many "fishing" expeditions. Tammy was never at the conferences, no one told Tammy she was going to die early. He messed with her car and sent her by herself on a trip, then she was shot at when that didn't work then she finally was k!lled after that. Chad only told that to prospective "customers". When he met lori his description of her was "she's hot and loaded". The time in Houston for reconciliation was when Lori had the insurance fraudulently changed back to her as the Beneficiary. Charles found out she did that after thier "failed reconciliation," which was false, Charles changed the Beneficiary back to kay. Lori did not know Charles found out about her fraudulently changing the Beneficiary. So after she left Houston the plan was put into action. They did the same to Charles his trip from Texas, then when they caught wind that he was going to intervene, he was shot. When that plan, Chad vision, failed another was put into action with Brandon for a payout of 1 million for Melani b, who promised the proceeds to help lori and Chad. That failed as well. Tammy went to up the life insurance on her. Then her plan was put into action. Coincidentally, all of these were suddenly possessed and needed to be freed from thier bodies. Also Gerber policies for children of these people were looked into during all of this.

First of all Colby testified he went to Gilbert Arizona when in fact he went to the Chandler Arizona house where Charles rented the house for Lori and the kids and in fact when Colby did get there Alex was sitting there with the bandage around his head for the dramatic effect and Lori was in the backyard at the pool was entertaining her friends that were there to support her who happened to be there the night before and also doing the castings to eliminate Charles once and for all. In the meantime Charles is dead in the detectives never even asked for everybody's cell phones They didn't even connect the dots that he had been reporting complaints that he was worried he was going to be murdered by Lori and would destroy him and could have mim murdered and take off with the kids and might hurt them! It all fell on deaf ears. Alex lied over and over about the facts. Why did Lori leave the scene with a fight in process and why Did Alex get away with lying about saying he called 911 5 minutes after the shooting but it was actually an hour before he called and he never did CPR.
You know nobody ever said anything about Tylee daddy lori threatening him as well he had to hide from her & alex ...who to say she didn't do him in?
