  • The Trial of Chad Daybell: Will a Bombshell Testimony Lead to Conviction?
    May 17 2024

    The trial of "Doomsday Prophet" Chad Daybell is well underway, expected to last at least two months, with more than sixty witnesses having taken the stand so far. Daybell stands accused of murder in the deaths of his first wife, Tammy Daybell, and the two children of his second wife, Lori Vallow. Daybell is facing the death penalty. Though his first wife’s death was originally thought to be a result of natural causes, officials later ruled it suspicious. The bodies of the children, Tylee and JJ, were found in Daybell’s backyard.

    In today's Headlines, Candice is joined by journalist Lauren Matthias, who has been attending the trial and covering the case extensively on her podcast Hidden True Crime. Together, they will discuss the evidence presented against Daybell so far, the shocking revelations from this week's testimony, and what we can expect from the trial in the weeks to come.

Not your average true crime podcast

If you’re looking beyond true crime as an entertainment, this is your podcast! Kandace uses her experience as a psychiatric nurse and an FBI profiler to give her audience an in-depth psychological analysis of infamous killers.
