- 1:56Speaker 3: In a grim case that began in twenty nineteen with
- 1:59Speaker 3: the search for two missing children has now finally been
- 2:03Speaker 3: put to rest as an Idaho jury unanimously decides that
- 2:07Speaker 3: convicted killer Chad day Bell should be executed for the
- 2:10Speaker 3: gruesome murders of his wife and his girlfriend's two youngest children.
- 2:15Speaker 4: For the latest, we turned to Sidney Sumner with Crime Online.
- 2:19Speaker 2: While seated at the defense table, fifty five year old
- 2:21Speaker 2: Chad day Bell appeared wearing a dress shirt and tie
- 2:24Speaker 2: with his hands in his lap. His face showed no
- 2:26Speaker 2: emotion as he learned that he will be executed for
- 2:29Speaker 2: the killings of Tammy day Bell, sixteen year old Tyle Ryan,
- 2:32Speaker 2: and seven year old Joshua JJ.
- 2:33Speaker 3: Vallo.
- 2:34Speaker 2: Da Bell declined to speak when the presiding judge asked
- 2:37Speaker 2: if he wanted to make a statement following the sentencing.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Following just over a day of deliberation, the jury declared
- 2:43Speaker 2: him guilty and subsequently also chose the death penalty. Lorie
- 2:47Speaker 2: Valo Dabell, whom Chadda Bell married soon after his wife's death,
- 2:50Speaker 2: is the mother of the dead children. After being found
- 2:53Speaker 2: guilty of the three murders last year. After being found
- 2:56Speaker 2: guilty of the three murders last year, Valo da Bell
- 2:58Speaker 2: is currently awaiting trial Arizona on charges of murder in
- 3:02Speaker 2: relation to the shooting duff of her fourth husband and
- 3:04Speaker 2: JJ's father, Charles Vallow. The beginning of the case dates
- 3:07Speaker 2: back to twenty nineteen. This is when a family member
- 3:10Speaker 2: called police regarding the children's welfare. After quickly realizing that
- 3:14Speaker 2: both children were gone, investigators launched a multi state search.
- 3:18Speaker 2: Their bodies were discovered buried on Chad Daybell's land about
- 3:20Speaker 2: a year later. Prosecutors claimed that Tylee's DNA was later
- 3:24Speaker 2: discovered on a pickaxe and shovel in a shed on
- 3:26Speaker 2: the property, and that JJ's body was covered with duct
- 3:29Speaker 2: tape and trash bags. The prosecution also put forth during
- 3:32Speaker 2: the nearly two month trial that Chad Daybell, a self
- 3:35Speaker 2: published author of doomsday fiction, promoted odd spiritual beliefs such
- 3:39Speaker 2: as tales of evil spirits possessing people, and apocalyptic prophecies,
- 3:43Speaker 2: all in an attempt to excuse his crimes. During the trial,
- 3:47Speaker 2: day Bell's defense lawyer, John Pryor contended that there was
- 3:49Speaker 2: insufficient evidence linking Dave Bell to the murders, and proposed
- 3:53Speaker 2: that Alex Cox, Valoda Bell's older brother, was the actual murderer.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Valo Da Bell was found guilty last year and given
- 3:59Speaker 2: a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Cox died
- 4:03Speaker 2: in late twenty nineteen without ever being charged. The jury
- 4:06Speaker 2: had to come to a unanimous decision that Dabell met
- 4:08Speaker 2: at least one of the aggravating circumstances under Idaho law
- 4:12Speaker 2: in order to impose the death penalty. Additionally, they had
- 4:15Speaker 2: to agree that those aggravating circumstances were not offset by
- 4:18Speaker 2: any mitigating factors that could have reduced his guilt or
- 4:21Speaker 2: supported a shorter sentence. The jury determined that there were
- 4:24Speaker 2: indeed aggravating circumstances, such as the killing's extreme cruelty and
- 4:28Speaker 2: complete disregard of human life.
- 4:30Speaker 4: Idaho law permits execution by both lethal injection or by
- 4:35Speaker 4: firing squad. However, the state has never carried out a
- 4:39Speaker 4: firing squad execution.

- 4:54Speaker 1: Harris reaches out to the man, who says he has
- 4:56Speaker 1: some of Corey's belongings after he stormed out of a
- 5:00Speaker 1: friend's house. He explains Corey went with him from La
- 5:04Speaker 1: to a home near Kerman, California, to celebrate his thirty
- 5:07Speaker 1: third birthday, but then an argument broke out the night
- 5:11Speaker 1: before and Corey left the house on foot. The friend
- 5:14Speaker 1: assumes Corey hitchhike into Kerman and went home from there,
