ARIZONA, UNITED STATES: The child killer who was found guilty gave up her electronic devices and was put under the supervision of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office in Arizona.
According to US Sun, Lori Vallow, who is serving a life sentence for killing her two children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, and for planning the death of Tammy Daybell, her fifth husband Chad's previous wife, is seen giggling and smiling in a four-minute video.
She was moved from a prison in Idaho to Estrella Jail in Arizona while she waited for a new trial regarding her suspected involvement in her fourth husband Charles Vallow's murder and the attempted murder of Brandon Boudreaux, her niece's ex-husband.
Lori Vallow smiled as she waited for her trial
In the video, recorded in November 2023, a deputy explained to Vallow that the items taken from her were electronic court documents that she brought with her during extradition, including a laptop.
The deputies told Vallow that she could give away the items to anyone later.
Vallow was taken from Pocatello, Idaho, to Phoenix, Arizona last year, and she talked a lot during the 18-hour trip.
Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone claimed, "She talked quite a bit. I don't know that she gave any specific statements related to the investigation, but I just know that they said she was very chatty,"
Penzone said Vallow was friendly during a press conference. Vallow will stay in jail without bail and will be kept in a high-security area.
The video was released when Vallow smiled while entering a courtroom for her conspiracy charge. She appeared in an orange prison jumpsuit and handcuffs, smiling for her scheduling conference.
She was in court for four minutes, confirming her name and birthdate. A judge set the next pretrial hearing for April 24, and Vallow waived her right to appear that day.
Vallow and her husband, Chad Daybell, have been connected to multiple deaths. Her children, JJ and Tylee, disappeared in September 2019, and they didn't say what happened to them, leading to a year-long search.
The children's burned remains were found buried on Daybell's property in Idaho in 2020. Prosecutors said Vallow killed her children and planned to kill Tammy so she could start a new life with Daybell.
