The trial of Chad Daybell, a 55-year-old man charged with three counts of first-degree murder, is scheduled to commence in Idaho this week. The case involves the deaths of his wife, Tammy Daybell, and his girlfriend's two youngest children, Joshua 'JJ' Vallow and Tylee Ryan. The children's bodies were discovered buried in Chad Daybell's yard in 2020.
Chad Daybell's trial is expected to last up to 10 weeks, with jury selection starting in Boise. He is also facing charges of insurance fraud in connection with Tammy Daybell's death, as well as conspiracy to commit first-degree murder and grand theft by deception in the children's deaths. If convicted, he could potentially face the death penalty.
