Daybell was convicted Thursday on a charge of conspiring to
murder Brandon Boudreaux, who was once married to Daybell’s
niece, outside his home in the Phoenix suburb of Gilbert.
An Arizona jury convicted Daybell in late April of conspiring
with her brother, Alex Cox, to kill her estranged husband,
Charles Vallow, in 2019 at her home in Chandler, another Phoenix
suburb.
The mother with doomsday religious beliefs has already been
sentenced in Idaho to life in prison for killing her two
youngest children and engaging in a plot to kill a romantic
rival.
She is scheduled to be sentenced in both Arizona cases on July
25. Each conviction carries a life sentence.
Boudreaux said his ex-wife, Melani Pawlowski, aspired to be like
her aunt Lori and that the two began attending religious
meetings together in 2018, and soon Pawlowski was arguing that
they should stockpile food for the end of the world.
In October 2019, someone in a Jeep outside Boudreaux’s home
fired a rifle shot at him, missing him but shattering a window
on his car.
Boudreaux recognized the Jeep as the vehicle that Vallow’s
daughter, Tylee Ryan, regularly drove before her death.
Vallow Daybell isn’t an attorney but chose to defend herself at
both trials in Arizona.
