Episode 113,   Aug 01, 2023, 10:00 AM

In an intriguing episode of the popular podcast "Murder in the Morning," hosts Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole discussed the personal plea made by Lori Vallow Daybell's attorney in court. Vallow Daybell, convicted for the murder of her children, has been a focal point in the podcast's recent episodes. Her attorney's emotional plea has sparked a flurry of reactions and heated debates about the case.
 
The hosts highlighted the attorney's passionate plea for leniency and understanding for his client, referring to her as "very misunderstood". The attorney drew on his past as a prosecutor and his personal relationship with Vallow Daybell to paint a picture of her that contradicted the damning public image. He emphasized the importance of peace, love, and hope in the aftermath of the trial, implying that society should move toward forgiveness and healing.
 
The hosts, however, were not convinced. Brueski stated, "Look what she did. She made a freaking plan and carried out that plan to kill her children. And I'm getting really worked up. I'm sorry." His co-host, Cole, echoed his sentiments, calling Vallow Daybell "the most hated woman in America right now, and maybe in the world pretty close."
 
Despite the attorney's appeal, the hosts questioned whether Vallow Daybell truly embodied the principles of peace and love, or if she merely manipulated those around her. "This woman was able to pull the wool over so many people's eyes for so long. I think she did it with her attorneys. If this is the statement that they're making, she's about love," said Brueski.
 
The attorney urged the court to give Vallow Daybell a 20-year fixed term with an indeterminate term of life, arguing that it would meet all the goals of sentencing with an added bonus of hope. His argument was that granting her hope would not be a reward but a benefit to society at large.
 
In response, Brueski retorted, "Why would anyone wanna have hope for Lori Vallow Daybell? She's proven time and time again you can't trust her. She's an evil, horrible human being." Cole echoed his sentiment, indicating that the attorney was defending Vallow Daybell "beyond being the defense attorney", and there were no excuses for her actions.
 
While the attorney’s plea for Vallow Daybell has stirred up controversy, it also underscores the power of public sentiment in high-profile cases. Despite the attorney’s best efforts, the hosts and many listeners could not reconcile the image of Vallow Daybell as a loving, misunderstood woman with the undeniable evidence of her horrifying crimes. The case continues to captivate public attention, and this podcast episode has brought fresh perspectives and insights into the troubling saga of Lori Vallow Daybell.
