INTERVIEW: Chad Daybell juror and alternate juror speak about the difficult 9-week trial

[@loloca]

These jurors were so awesome! Thanks to all of them!

[@JetPackDino]

Thank you for your service. What a horrific situation. I've heard that Chad used that same "you were my wife in another probation" approach with a lot of other women, but that Lori Vallow was the only one who fell for it.

[@christistruth705]

I think Julie Rowe was falling for it. And then Lori showed up and Julie was cast aside. She talked a few years ago about it, though she never admitted that she had an affair with Chad. She was very hurt that he just dumped her.

[@msherry5]

That's a popular line with cult leaders.

[@usakiwi1986]

Thank you for your service Jurors. Sending hugs!!

[@Mary10538]

These women are very compassionate. I'm sure it was so hard but they made the right decision.

[@violettemuse]

Excellent group of jurors.

[@swaneespeedramsey6080]

Thanks so much Dayna. This couldn’t have been an easy thing. I’m so glad the rest of the jury were able to be such good supportive friends.

[@Suzee6040]

Thank you jurors for coming forward now. So many times during the trial, I said I sure hope the jury caught that bit of info. Y’all did and so many, like me, are grateful for your astute service ❤️

[@lissadawes4243]

Jurors coming forward is just them wanting publicity for themselves.

[@Barbara-zo6pq]

You did a great job!! Thank you for doing the hard job of bringing justice!!

[@loribaker8339]

This jury was outstanding. I've heard 8 jurors speak and they are really compassionate people. I really appreciate that they were able to form a bond and in the end, help each other thru the rough times. This case was blessed to get this many people that bonded so quickly and was able to see all the evidence for what it was. They all had alot of common sense.

[@GoensFamily-i6y]

Amen!

[@phasis]

Chad Daybell was the Charles Manson of LDS East Idaho.

[@LadyScaper]

Accurate.

[@GoensFamily-i6y]

Well said!

[@50angeleyes]

He would probably love that he was so notorious. It would feed his ego

[@SherryPresley-tl7vl]

NBC Why did you give her last name? She deserves some anonymity. She may not be thinking about that, but you should.

[@DiannelLaird]

Maybe she wanted her last name used. Maybe she didn’t mind at all. Did you think of that? Maybe she was asked before they started filming, did you think of that? Maybe before you make a statement about chastising someone else you should think about what that person might have wanted.

[@tammypierce3250]

She was an alternate so she didn’t have anything to do with the sentencing.

[@Pixie2589]

@@tammypierce3250 she said she was one of the 12, more than once.

[@tammypierce3250]

@@Pixie2589 Are you talking about Daynna or Lori? He interviewed two. I’m talking about Lori. She stated that she was an alternate when he asked about the death penalty.

[@LadyScaper]

It does not matter if they didn’t mind or were an alternate. They both got traumatized doing a public duty that a lot of us avoid. They should be given the respect of the veneer of a little privacy.

[@MrPaultopp]

Lori stopped giving Jj his medication, Jj lost his father, lost his sister, lived with a narcissist who sold his dog ….Chad didn’t like dogs

[@debib.8397]

From what I have read, the service dog went back to the trainer 💙🐕

[@lorrainelaneres-zh1ut]

The trainer got to hear about Lori attempting to sell the service dog and took the dog of them, the dog is now with another child ❤

[@LadyScaper]

The dog was a specially trained autism service dog. It was specifically there to help JJ. JJ could sleep through the night thanks to Bailey the service dog. Service dogs are very intelligent and Bailey never would have bothered Chad. Separating the dog from JJ that was specifically there to help him and that he had bonded with, is unconscionable. I find it sickening and hearing from relatives of Tylee’s she felt the same way we all do. Probably made her want to protect JJ even more.

[@alisasewell]

Hearing from these jurors has given me a new perspective on jury duty and its importance to our system. I believe their interviews will help make a difference in how willing others will be to serve as well

[@LadyScaper]

You are right. They didn’t choose this role, but took the duty seriously when called upon.

[@bobbicatt]

A grateful nation thanks you and every one of the 18 people who did their civic duty above and beyond. Please make sure you practice self care. I was a professional medic that did search and rescue at 9-11 …those images haunt me 22 years later . I choose that career, all of you never asked for this, so again , please take care of yourself and if you need therapy please get it. 🙏🏼❤️

[@pattymoody2405]

God Bless you all , I never seen a better group of people on this jury. YOU GOT IT RIGHT!!! Thank you ❤❤❤

[@lissadawes4243]

Oh sure but if they voted wrongly you’d be denouncing them to high heaven

[@leighterry2277]

How unethical, unprofessional and disrespectful to say the juror last names, especiallyin today's world!!!! That needs to be edited out!!

[@RationalNon-conformist]

What if they don’t mind? Don’t assume things.

[@tobiwalker7145]

A hundred years ago, jurors' names were printed in the daily newspaper. People who stand behind their decisions don't have a problem using their real names to do so.

[@patbrown2699]

Calm down

[@jss302]

He didn't even know who he was interviewing.. He didn't know until halfway through that the last interviewee was an alternate. I love the jurors, but this reporter gets a D

[@adriennewalker1715]

The interviewer didn’t do his homework, no idea he was interviewing an alternate in the second video… using the exact same question word for word he’d asked in the first interview in re the adjudication… unprofessional and in prepared. Very disrespectful imo.

[@annanderson7]

Thank you so much for your service. I know that this was a very hard case. May God bless you and heal you! Much respect ❤

[@nadzach]

I just wanted to say thanks. I used to think juries would be the unemployable or very old. I do so appreciate that all of you were serious and wise

[@lcweave2016]

Where did you ever the information that jurors are always old or unemployable? How strange.

Sweet brave jurors. Thank you so much for your service. Be well!

[@linn6980]

Jurors handled gracefully some awkward questions

[@stlmopoet]

Daynna gave a great interview. She is much more well spoken than the interviewer, which is a bit sad. Lori gave good insights also, especially about how the defense put down the victims.

[@Wander2WildBlueYonder]

Awful interviewer.

[@happybergner9832]

THANK YOU, JURORS, FOR GATHERING YOUR COURAGE, AND GIVING JUSTICE AND PEACE TO JJ, Tylee, and Tammy, AND THEIR FAMILIES AND LOVED ONES.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💞💞💞💞

[@AnnCarmody]

Sadly, Tammy's children will never recognize that their father is a serial killer. The will see him as a Martyr being persecuted for being a Messiah. Chad reminds of Warren Jeffs. A quiet, unassuming, slow speaking cult leader. This type of personality is dangerous as there are no alarms bells that they are dangerous to be with them. Poor innocent Tammy. She would not have known she was living with a manipulative gaslighter.

[@kathleenp9643]

I felt the same thing thinking about their last moments. ❤❤

[@Mindea-b9o]

Good to talk about good to hear your perspective. We all support you even as a person on the outside looking in I've felt like all you guys as so as many. It's not a show it's a dedicated case thankyou for all of your valor restoes faith in humanity. Because we all thought of each other that's the blessings

[@jeanie8831]

To the interviewer: Please take classes on how to interview. You asked them 3-4 questions in the same sentence. And I'm pretty sure you said "like" over a hundred times. I appreciate the jurors agreeing to tell their stories.

[@janebryant7794]

Great show

[@Papa_Gramma]

She needs to understand that she followed the law and didn’t sentence anyone to death, she followed the law. There was no other choice if you follow the law. God bless her heart ❤️

[@crystalinabacteria3430]

I'm glad they explained the process. Me being naive thought that Jurors just listened to the case & got thrown in s room to argue it out until they reach a conclusion. They had clear concise questions to answer whether he was guilty or not guilty. Chads involvement ticked all the boxes to bring guilty. He basically dug his own grave. Thank you Jurors for having to go through disturbing evidence to bring Justice for the victims & their families. If I were a Juror I would want to remain anonymous to be honest.

[@ainokea911]

He must have had so much jealousy and hurt throughout his childhood and adolescent. And it went unchecked. You dont just become a murderer overnight. Chad hated himself.

[@jamiem2444]

I totally agree. Plus, he never made as much money as the rest of his family, and I think that ate away at him.

[@jswope1475]

Dr John pointed out that he seemed to have a normal childhood. The problem was Chad was needy, so what was given was never enough. I think Chad believed all the things his siblings achieved should have been given to him.....Except he never wanted to work for anything.

[@SRM2025]

@@jswope1475Well stated. I was going to write similar in reply. There is often one sibling whom has the same upbringing yet are vastly different in their makeup from the other siblings. Chad was that sibling.

[@rebeccadunn1690]

So many people that are being interviewed, and the jurors have all been very amazing. They just seemed to be the right ones that worked together white this Trial was going on. All those I heard were interviewed seemed to be very good listeners and worked well together. Lori Vallow Daybell's sister Summer is a very scary calculated person as well as Alix and Lori. She is all about wanting people to think she is saint just like Lori had everyone snowed into thinking she was a saint!! Lori being married 5 times!! I believe she even killed her 4th husband. Keep an eye on Summer people. Just saying!!

[@MaddHeather]

I agree. Something is off with her for sure!

[@bobbicatt]

What has Summer done? I know she went to Crime con and spoke to Nate …am I missing something ? She seemed pretty straightforward in that interview.

[@bobbicatt]

@@MaddHeather What am I missing ? I only saw the interview she did with Nate.

[@LadyScaper]

She testified against her sister in Lori’s Idaho trial. The recording of the phone call of her confronting Lori after learning the children died, was pretty devastating. Summer was beside herself with grief.

[@WiseOldLady]

[@GoensFamily-i6y]

It was, evidently, one person who made the decision to murder the victims in this case. The victims did not deserve to die…..they were innocent victims. However, There were 12 people who made the decision….with guidelines, and guidance…in the process to pass the death sentence on Chad Daybell. He deserved this punishment for being the murderer he is. He has destroyed many lives, not just the victims’. The manner of death for the children, especially, was horrific. Same on Chad Daybell!!!!

Hopefully that crazy Monster will never walk free in public as long as the children born now live on this earth all their lives.

[@theresarossi6306]

This juror has more compassion about sentencing Chad to the death penalty than Chad, Lori, or even Alex (when he had done it and was unburned by his act of murder) did for murdering Charles, Tammy, and the children

Why is the interviewer saying „like” every half sentence? 😳 I thought being an interviewer requires speaking well and connecting with the interviewee, seems like he was able to do none. Luckily his guests were very well spoken themselves.

[@erinsview8919]

The jurors are so well spoken while the journalist seems so out of his depth. whose son/cousin/brother is he? Silly questions, "I mean" every few words... Where did they find him?

Thank you for the vertic the only thing that could have been better is go in room take everyones vote and come out in 10 minutes and say guilty i would have been so happy

[@kaemarie1605]

Honey, Michael was there. Unfortunately, as humans, God has given us the gift of free will. Angels have only so much they can do I believe, but JJ was escorted to the after life with the Archangel and didn't suffer long. I can sleep knowing this 🙏

I appreciate Dayna speaking, and thank her for her service - but it is hard to understand her communication.

[@RobertAWood-bf9fh]

Does the LDS church required women to wear long stringy hair even in middle age

[@Missmarple007]

He just appealed his sentence. I have a bad feeling about all these jurors speaking out SO much. They could have found anything from which they said to be a point of appeal for verdict. Not cool

[@LadyScaper]

I strongly doubt his appeals will work. They tried it with a juror in Lori’s Idaho trial, and it didn’t work. The evidence is overwhelming and all the interviewed jurors have said the same things.

[@Enoughalready20237]

I agree. I think they are giving him MAJOR appellate traction.

[@Missmarple007]

@@Enoughalready20237 it was not a good idea. These reporters should have known better to let them go on and on and on the way they did. I think I know everyone’s favorite color. The most important thing is keeping him in prison
