Lori Vallow Daybell Removed from Courtroom Amid Heated Exchange
PHOENIX, Ariz. (KUTV) — Tensions flared in a Phoenix courtroom on Friday as an Arizona judge ordered Lori Vallow Daybell to be removed following a contentious exchange during her trial. Video footage captured Daybell, who is self-representing, responding to the judge’s remarks with, "You don’t need to yell at me either," insisting she had been "very courteous." The judge countered, stating, "No, you have been nothing near courteous to me during the course of these proceedings," before ordering a brief recess.
The conflict stemmed from Daybell’s attempt to present character evidence in her defense, claiming she is "loving and peaceful." The judge deemed this approach potentially prejudicial to the case, prompting the escalation.
Lori Vallow Daybell is currently facing trial for conspiring to murder Brandon Boudreaux, the ex-husband of her niece. This follows her conviction in Idaho, where she was sentenced to three life terms for the murders of her children, Tylee Ryan and Joshua "JJ" Vallow, and a previous conviction in Arizona for the conspiracy to kill her estranged husband, Charles Vallow. Her self-representation in these serious trials has drawn significant media attention.
