Chad Daybell's Defense, A Puppet, A Witch, and A Henchman Walk into a Bar...
Apr 04, 07:00 PM
In the latest episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Bob Motta, defense attorney and host of "Defense Diaries," delves into the abyss of the Chad Daybell case. Here are the not-so-light-hearted highlights:
- Jury selection for Chad Daybell's trial is anticipated to be as drawn out as the case itself, reflecting the vast public interest and media coverage.
- The trial's length, estimated between six to ten weeks, sets the stage for a marathon of legal maneuvers.
- Lori Vallow’s trial is mentioned as a benchmark, albeit with Chad facing a different set of evidence, including a less convenient alibi.
- The defense strategy for Chad seems to be conjuring the ghost of Lori's deceased brother, Alex Cox, as the chief villain, with Chad and Lori as mere puppets under his sinister influence.
- Motta speculates on a defense narrative casting Chad as an unwitting participant, ensnared by Lori's malevolent spell and Alex's dark deeds.
- The possibility of challenging the mens rea aspect of the charges against Chad through claims of mental defect (sans an insanity defense) is discussed, painting Lori as the mastermind behind a bizarre belief system involving dark and light scales, demons, and other metaphysical mumbo jumbo.
- The conversation touches on the absurdity of trying to convince a jury of Chad's lack of intent, based on a belief that the victims were not human but rather possessed vessels.
- Speculation abounds regarding whether Chad will flip on Lori, painting her as the orchestrator of the murders, in a desperate bid to avoid the death penalty.
- The discussion concludes with ponderings on the potential impact of Chad's trial on Lori's defense in her upcoming trial, with a side of speculation about the insanity defense in Arizona.
