Charles Vallow’s Family Respond to Lori Vallow Daybell’s Guilty Verdict

The brother and sister of murdered Charles Vallow were jubilant after his ex-wife Lori Vallow Daybell was found guilty of plotting to kill him.

Daybell’s doomsday religious beliefs led her to kill her two youngest children and engage in a plot to kill a romantic rival in Idaho. She was convicted Tuesday in Arizona for conspiring to murder Vallow, her estranged husband.

She faces another possible life sentence on top of the three she is already serving in Idaho. She will not be sentenced in Arizona until after she goes on trial in another alleged murder conspiracy.

Speaking outside the court, Vallow’s sister Kay Woodcock said the family had spent “years of walking the pits of hell every day” since his murder in 2019.

“It’s still difficult, but it’s OK. I’m ready to move on, it’s time,” Woodcock said, adding: “We lost some dear family. We lost a lot. But we have gained family as well.”

She had a message for Daybell: “We got ya, and you’re not the smartest person in the room…You can just hide away and everybody’s going to forget about you. We’ll be on our way through our life and she’ll be rotting in prison, where she deserves to be.”

Gerry Vallow, Charles’ younger brother, paid emotional tribute outside the court to his late sibling: “Today is a good day. We won…Like Charles always used to say, love always wins…He was a big influence in my life and he was just a good dude. He was. All the way from a kid till when she killed him.”

He added: “As a parting shot, they got the b***h again.”

Speaking to Fox 10 Phoenix, Woodcock said: “It’s real. For a long time, going through all this, everything seemed artificial and not real, because I’ve learned that’s part of trauma stuff.

“But it’s so gratifying that she was found guilty. I mean, everybody in the world knew she was. She did everything except put a camera on herself to do it.”
