A jury has found Lori Vallow Daybell guilty on all counts of killing her two children and conspiring in the murder of her husband's first wife.
Vallow Daybell, who pleaded not guilty, was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and three counts of conspiracy in the 2019 deaths of her children 17-year-old Tylee Ryan and 7-year-old Joshua "JJ" Vallow, as well as Tammy Daybell, the first wife of her husband Chad Daybell.
She is facing life in prison when sentenced.
A jury of seven men and five women began deliberating Thursday afternoon and reached a unanimous guilty verdict Friday afternoon.
Vallow Daybell showed no visible reaction as the verdict was read.
She will be transferred from Ada County to Fremont County for further proceedings and sentencing. Judge Steven Boyce said sentencing will occur in about three months.
As the jurors were excused, a cross-armed Vallow Daybell stood, briefly spoke to her attorney and quickly walked out of the courtroom as a bailiff escorted her.
