I Nancy Grace, this is 7 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: Crime Stories. Thank you for being with us here at 8 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: Fox Nation and Sirius XM one eleven. First of all, 9 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,279 Speaker 1: take a listen to this. The month's long search for 10 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: seven year old JJ Valo in seventeen year old Tyleie 11 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: Ryan officially comes to a close. The human remains found 12 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: on Chad Dayville's property are officially identified as the missing kids, 13 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: the Rexburg Police Department announcing the findings earlier today following 14 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: autopsies performed in Boise. The remains were found at day 15 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: Belle's home in Salem Tuesday after a search warrant was issued. 16 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: Authorities have not released details about the conditions of the remains. 17 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: Rexburg Police, Fremont County sheriff deputies, along with the FBI, 18 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: made the discovery in day Belle's backyard. Day Belle has 19 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: been arrested and charged with two felony counts of concealment 20 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: or destruction of evidence. What where's the murder charge? What's 21 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: the hold up? You find two dead children's bodies beard 22 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: in your backyard? And why don't you hear this? And 23 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: text messages Chad day Bill sent to his then wife, 24 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: now dead, Tabby Dabille. He talks about how he had 25 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: to put down a raccoon. It was no raccoon, it 26 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: was seventeen year old Tiley. That's who he killed and 27 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: buried or at least got rid of the body. But 28 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: the plot is thickening as we learned that Coultmom's a brother, 29 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: her avenging angel as she called him, her words not mine, 30 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: was there at that burial scene according to his GPS. 31 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: So many facts we are finding out now, But big question, 32 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: where's the murder charges? Why? Just concealment? With me an 33 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: all star panel to break it down put it back 34 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: together again. Ashley Wilcot judge and trial lawyer, anchor Court 35 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: TV at Ashley Wilcott dot com.

But right now to the reporter 40 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: that the whole thing wide open with the East Idaho 41 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: News dot Com. Nate Eate Nate, just give it to 42 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: me in a nutshell? All right, where's the murder charges 43 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: I think that you can anticipate murder charges eventually. Right 44 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: now police are putting together their case very meticulously, as 45 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: they have done since the beginning. Plus they have to 46 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: prove who actually killed these children. We know that they 47 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: were buried at Chad Dave Bell's house, but as you mentioned, 48 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: Alex Cox, Laurie's brother was also there based on his 49 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: cell phone pings, So who actually did Nate? Nate Nate? Yeah, 50 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: let's just all agree that you're one of the greatest 51 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: reporters around. But do you have your law degree? Just 52 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: a question, innocent question, do you? I am no attorney? Okay, 53 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: thank you can stop right there. You can stop right there, 54 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: because isn't it true, Ashley Wilcot, we need to charge 55 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: the whole kitten kaboodle, all right, because at this point, Ashley, 56 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: in my mind, it doesn't matter who pulled the trigger 57 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: or strangled or suffocated. They were in it together. And 58 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: when you act in concert, when you all know what's 59 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: going on, you're all part of it. It's like me 60 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: driving mine in my own business to a bank robbery. 61 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: I know that it's a bank robbery. I drive you 62 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: there as you will caught. You go in and all 63 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I hear an oozy going off of 64 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: my what. I'm charged with murder? Just like you. They 65 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: all need to be charged. Cult Mom, Laurie Valo, the 66 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: new husband, Chad day Bill, and if he was alive, 67 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: Alex Cox the brother right wrong. I agree with you. 68 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: I think they both need to be charged. But I'm 69 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: going to suggest this. I believe in my mind that 70 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: there may be other people still alive it need to 71 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: be charged. I'm not going to tell you that I 72 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: think it's only Laurie and Chad. I think there might 73 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: have been other people involved in this that also need 74 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: to face those charges. Now, the good news is there's 75 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: million dollar bonds, so they're not getting out of jail. Well, 76 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: I guess you know you're one to find the silver lining. 77 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: I'm not so happy about it, you know, Cheryl McCollum 78 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: joining me, the director of the Cold Case Research Institute. 79 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,559 Speaker 1: I don't know what took cops so long to figure 80 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: out how we need to search Chad day Bell's property 81 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: and his curtilage. Curtilage under the law, it's what you 82 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: call the shed, the car port, the farmhouse, the backyard, 83 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: the adjoining properties. That's the curtilage, and that is included 84 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: when you execute a search warrant on the home. The 85 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: curtilage cure ti la ge is included. Cheryl McCollum, That's 86 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: a whole nother cannon worms. I'm not worried about it now. 87 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: Why it took them so long to search. You know, 88 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: they did an earlier search after Tammy day Bell, his 89 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: wife died in her sleep, but they didn't search the grounds. 90 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: What about it, Cheryl Nancy? I think they were going 91 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: step by step because they knew if they get one shot, 92 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: so they wanted to take their time and make sure 93 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: they knew exactly where to search. And in this case, 94 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: we're too dig so that they can get all the evidence, 95 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: maintain everything, perfectly, recover everything, bagtag everything is perfectly legal. 96 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: And you know what, Cheryl, I think a lot of you, 97 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: but you got a bass Ackwards friend because if they 98 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 1: were being so thorough, they would have searched the entire property. Look, 99 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 1: I don't like to throw stones at the cops, but 100 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: that property should have been searched day one. All that 101 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: is in hindsight. What matters now is the children's body 102 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: have been found. Their bodies have been found, and the 103 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: cops did do that, and I believe Nate Eaton they 104 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: did that ultimately because of GPS track or information specifically 105 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: cell phone records. Nate Eaton East Idaho News dot com 106 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: what led police to finally go and search the curlage, 107 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: and thank god they did. What led them there, well, 108 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 1: it was a bunch of little clues that came together 109 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: within the past two or three weeks. One was the 110 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: fact that Laurie's best friend, Melanie Gibb, who had visited 111 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:10,119 Speaker 1: her in September, has been cooperating with police, told officers 112 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: the last time she remembered seeing JJ was when she 113 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: and her boyfriend were visiting the day before JJ vanished. 114 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: They were at Laurie's house. Laurie said he was acting 115 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: like a zombie. He was climbing all over the cabinets. 116 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: He knocked down a picture of Jesus on the fridge. 117 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: Well what what what? What? What? Wait? Wait wait wait, 118 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: there's a lot there. A child crawling on a cabinet 119 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: is just what children do in my mind. Maybe I'm crazy, Jackie, 120 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: but I've seen John David and mostly John David get 121 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: up on the island and I have to get him down. 122 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: But that's what children do. And I'll tell you what 123 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: I think. Pushed it over the edge and I'm gonna 124 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: have to go to a shrink on this Nate Eton 125 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: is when he accidentally knocked a picture. I don't know 126 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: if it was a magnet or what of Christ off 127 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: the fridge and that three cult mom Laurie Valo into 128 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: a fit. Hey guys, take a listen and to our 129 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: friend Misty anglet there at kat v B boys Idaho 130 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: niece listen to this. September twenty second, the last time 131 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: JJ Valo was seen. Police interviewed Melanie Gibb and her 132 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: boyfriend David Warwick, who were visiting Lorie that weekend. They 133 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: told police Laurie said JJ had turned into a zombie. 134 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: The next morning, September twenty third, between eight and nine am, 135 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: Warwick didn't see JJ and asked where he was, Bie 136 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: stated he was acting out so quote Alex had come 137 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: and taken JJ. GPS data once again puts Alex on 138 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: Chad's property that day from nine fifty five am until 139 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: ten to twelve am, paying near the pond. All this 140 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: evidence started coming to light around the first part of 141 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: June twenty twenty. Just days later, June ninth, police searched 142 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: Chad's property. They focused on sites corresponding to the GPS 143 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: from Alex's own and the strange text to Tammy je 144 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: James Highly's bodies were found in those areas near the 145 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: pond and fire pit crime stories with Nancy Grace. The 146 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: bodies have absolutely been identified of JJ and Tiley, the 147 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: children of cult mom Laurie Valoe, and I feel like 148 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 1: we've all been played for fools. While we all thought 149 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: the likelihood was that the children were dead, there was 150 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: always that little hope, that glimmer of hope that maybe, 151 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: just maybe this nut job Laurie valoed not insane, by 152 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: the way, because she knew enough to like keep her 153 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: trap shut to Cox, that maybe she had hidden her 154 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: children away in some bug her Since she is predicting 155 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 1: that the earth will come to an end on July 156 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,959 Speaker 1: twenty second. So many people thought there was a possibility, 157 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: a sliver of a chance the children are still alive. Well, 158 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: they're dead. And it hurts a lot of us to 159 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: actually say that. Over the months of helping to look 160 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: for JJ and Tailey, we've come to believe we know 161 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: them in some way. Now to find out that they're dead. 162 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: On Chad Day Belle's property basically in his backyard, neighbors 163 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: saying that he had a big bonfire going for days 164 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: on end. I've got to believe that that's connected to 165 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: the destruction of these children's body. With me an all 166 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: Star panel, I want to go back to Nate eaton 167 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: East Idaho News dot Com, who has been on the 168 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: case from the get go. Nate, you were saying that 169 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: just before the cops and I got to hand it 170 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: to cops. I was giving them a hard time earlier, 171 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: but they got this information at the beginning of June. 172 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: Within days, they were out there with a warrant and 173 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 1: they find the bodies. But you were saying at the 174 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: very beginning of June that they learned cops learned that 175 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: just before the children disappear, that JJ, who's just seven 176 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: years old at the time, an autistic has a lot 177 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: of issues going on, had been acting like a zombie. 178 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 1: According to Laurie Valo. You know, I just want to 179 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: slap her right now to call her own child a zombie, 180 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: Jackie and an evil spirit. I just want to give 181 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: her a little finger necklace from That's a whole other issue, Nate, 182 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: What else do you know about JJ allegedly quote acting 183 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: like a zombie. Well, the other thing that Laurie mentioned 184 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: to her friends is that he had climbed up above 185 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: the cabinet area. Now her friends were staying in the house. 186 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: They didn't hear any of this. They didn't witness any 187 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: of this. This was just Laurie telling them these things. 188 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: They thought that that was a little odd. Next thing 189 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 1: they know, Alex is taking JJ away. He comes back. 190 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: JJ's asleep on Alex's shoulder. David, who was there, the friend, 191 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: he said, Oh, that looks like a tender moment. He 192 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: remembered that. The next day they went to go home 193 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: to Arizona. They asked Lorie if they could say goodbye 194 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: to JJ. She said, JJ is no longer here. That 195 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: very same day, hours later, Alex's cell phone pinged at 196 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: Chad day Bell's project. I'm drinking from the fire, hijrat. 197 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: Nate eating a so much info. I've got to just 198 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: break it down, you know, Nate Eating, you have so 199 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: much info. Almost every sentence you say is a point 200 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: that I'd like to put on a big poster in 201 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: front of a jury. Let's examine what he just said, 202 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: Cheryl McCollum, Listen to this. So just before JJ goes missing, 203 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: he's acting out because he climbed on the counter. Okay, 204 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: at most that would have been a time out at 205 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: the most in our house, but that aside. Then he 206 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: goes somewhere with Alex, the brother who's now dead. He 207 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 1: comes back asleep. They never see him awake again. Do 208 00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: you think he was drugged and then killed. I don't 209 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: think there's any question he was either drug or in 210 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: some way incapacitated for a long period of time. Nay, 211 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: he could have already been to see Okay, Well, I 212 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: can always count on you to come up with another 213 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: alarming and upsetting theory. Ashley Wilcot, judge, trial lawyer or 214 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: a court TV anchor And mom, you know somebody wants 215 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: to see the children if they're a sleep I go, 216 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: you know what, there's still a sleep, don't wake them 217 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: up for Pete's sake, Or if they got a play date, 218 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: I go, oh, you know what, they're at the playground, 219 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: which of course that would never happen because I would 220 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: be spying on them. But you don't just say they're 221 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: no longer with us. You don't think that's weird, Ashley, No, 222 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: it is weird. It's a big red flag because I 223 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: would never say that. If I said that, it would 224 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: mean that they were passed away, that they weren't with us, 225 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: literally alive on earth. So I do think the other 226 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: aspect of that is exactly what you say. If it 227 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 1: doesn't smell right, it's not right. And by that I mean, hey, 228 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 1: if somebody says, oh, if they're not here or are 229 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: too elusive, I think there's a problem. You know too. 230 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: Karen Start joining me New York psychologist at karenstart dot com. Karen, 231 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: what kind of mom? And you and I have talked 232 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: about this so many times. Let's a man waltz into 233 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: the home and suddenly start eight molesting the child, beating 234 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: the child, starving the child, poisoning her mind against her 235 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: own children, and in this case, she didn't say all 236 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: this zombie Laurie Valaden come up with this zombie story 237 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: about her children until Chad Daville came in the picture. 238 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: That's certainly not relieving her of responsibility. But how does 239 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: a mom just forget all the love, all the bonding, 240 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: all the years you've had and go, yeah, there's zombies. 241 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: They have to die. Well, unfortunately, Nancy would be wonderful 242 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: if still were only terrific Monds that this never happened too. 243 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: But we know so many stories, as you said, and 244 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: there are some people who are starved for love, and 245 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: so this is what what called it? Called it? Nate Eate? 246 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: How many times is not judging? Not judging, don't care, 247 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: nate eate. And how many times has Lorie Vala been married? 248 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: This is her fifth marriage? Okay marriage, let me just 249 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: say here and start. She's not starving for love now. 250 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: As much as I love David, David, I'm not doing 251 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: it again. I've done it still got times. What would 252 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: have bean starve for affection? This woman has had five husbands. 253 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: She's not starved, but she's not feeling filled up. She's 254 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: not nothing is making her feel good enough about herself 255 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: or she wouldn't keep going from one man to the next. 256 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: If you just take a look at it. She's not satisfied. 257 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: And it's not, in my opinion that she feels so 258 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: great about herself. She needs somebody better. But she's just 259 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: so and not feeling good, not feeling okay. Right, you 260 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: know what. You know that I respect you and we've 261 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: been friends, actually personal friends, ever since day one at 262 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: Court TV. But Karen Start, she had a hand in 263 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: killing her own children, all right, now, right, how are 264 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: you somehow talking about her deflated ego and her id? 265 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: Why why am I hearing this if I were not 266 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: a teacher? Were you driving me to drink? Karen Start? 267 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: The reason I'm talking about her deflated ego is because 268 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: she was so readily black. It's really, I think so 269 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: just somehow this guy got into her and got her 270 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: to believe this whole thing about zombies. So she was 271 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: really susceptible, she was really open. You know what, though, 272 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: the reality is, Cheryl McCollum, we could say that about 273 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: all these moms that let a guy in their life. 274 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: They start beating lasting starving the children. I don't get it. 275 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: I've seen it since I started prosecuting felonies. I've only 276 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: had a very few a handful of cases where the 277 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: mother sided with the children and not the purpose. Nancy. 278 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: I agree with doctor start. It seems to me that 279 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: these women care more about their ego being said. I 280 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: need a man to validate that I'm pretty. I need 281 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 1: a man to marry me, to validate that I'm worthy. 282 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: A man does something for these women that their children cannot. Okay, 283 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 1: well you know what, I'll leave that to the shrinks. 284 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,479 Speaker 1: All I care about it's the body, the bodies in 285 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: this case, who did it and who's going to jail 286 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: for how long? Crime stories with Nancy Grace, guys were 287 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: talking about the Lorie Valo cult mom prosecution, and I 288 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: want to know what's going to happen now. First of all, 289 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: I want you to take a listen to what we 290 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 1: have learned about how the bodies were ultimately found. And 291 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 1: when I see bodies, I'm talking about of a seven 292 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 1: year old little boy, Jj Valo and his sister, seventeen 293 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: year old Tyley, All the signs were there that they're dead. 294 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,959 Speaker 1: Did I want to believe it? No? I didn't. But 295 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you something, Nate Eaton. You remember when 296 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: you told me at the very beginning, when you were 297 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: running along beside her in Hawaii, going hey, where are 298 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: the children? Where are the children? Where the children? And 299 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: you told me the story about she got in the 300 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: car and she looked at somebody with these evil laser 301 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 1: beam eyes. Okay, And I don't know any other better 302 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: way to describe it. When I do a close up 303 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 1: on her eyes, she just looks evil. Go ahead, mock 304 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: me if you want, but just just a complete lack 305 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: of remorse. It looks like you're looking at a reptile 306 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: that's got cold blood running through her system. Yeah. Some 307 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: of the investigators have told me that dealing with Lorie 308 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,239 Speaker 1: Balow from the beginning has been impossible because she just 309 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: has those eyes. She's very cold, she's very narcissistic. Whereas 310 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: Chad Dave Bell up to this point, you meet him 311 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: and you think, oh, he's a friendly guy. You know, 312 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: not much personality there, but but at least he's friendly, 313 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: he'll talk to you, Laurie Balow was exactly the opposite. 314 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: Chad was quiet in the background and, according to court documents, 315 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: kind of running the show, telling Laurie about these zombie ideas, 316 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: telling her that people have turned evil, They've turned dark, 317 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: and Laurie would go ahead and believe these things to 318 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: the point that you know, we know what happened. Guys, 319 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:49,719 Speaker 1: I want you to take a listen now to our 320 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: friends at Katie V. B Boys, Idaho. This is again 321 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: Misty Englet. Just fourteen minutes after Alex leaves Chadsen's atten 322 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: X to his then wife Tammy daybel The text reads quote, 323 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: I've had an interesting warning. I felt I should burn 324 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: all the limb debris by the fire pit before it 325 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: got two soaked by the coming storms. While I did so, 326 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: I spotted a big raccoon along the fence. I hurried 327 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: and got my gun, and he was still walking along. 328 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: I got close enough, one shot did the trick. He's 329 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: now in our pet cemetery. Fun Times police state this 330 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: was suspicious because raccoons are nocturnal. Neighbors of Chad's also 331 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: reported to police frequent bonfires at Chad's house, which was 332 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: out of the norm. It almost makes me sick to 333 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: hear that because he didn't shot a raccoon, he didn't 334 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 1: bury a raccoon, He buried two children that he knew, 335 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: Tyley in JJ in his backyard. You know to doctor 336 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: Kindall Crowns, Deputy Medical Examiner, Travis County. That's Austin Dot 337 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: Dirt Crowns. It's so great to have you with us today. 338 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: Tell me, doctor Crowns. They've got to know what the 339 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: cod cause of death is. They're not releasing it. They've 340 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: got to know what it is. Right well, not necessarily, 341 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: if the bodies are severely decomposed or have been burned 342 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: up to the points of all that's left of them 343 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,640 Speaker 1: is really bones, may be difficult for them to determine 344 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: exactly how the children died, say, if they were strangled 345 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 1: or suffocated, the injuries may be minimal at best, and 346 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: then with decomposition or burning away, the evidence may be 347 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: completely destroyed. Now they know the kids are dead, and 348 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: of course they know that they didn't die in a 349 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: natural means so or even accidental, but they're probably still 350 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: trying to figure out exactly what happened. You know, I 351 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: was thinking back on off what one of you guys 352 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: said earlier. They're trying to figure out who did Oh, 353 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 1: it was Nate Eton, the new lawyer, that they were 354 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: trying to figure out who actually did the deed, the murder. 355 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: And I'm saying it doesn't matter because they worked in concert, 356 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 1: then makes them each a co conspirator in murder. And 357 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 1: correct me if I'm wrong, Nate Eton. But that is 358 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: death penalty jurisdiction. Is that right, Nate? Yes, no, correct, Yeah, 359 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 1: Idaho does have the death penalty. I want to circle 360 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: back to two different things. One how they found the 361 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: location and two, Nate Eton, I know you are all 362 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: up in this. What do you think is going to 363 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: be cod Well, that's a great question. I couldn't speculate 364 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: on that at this point. I think, Nate, stop it. 365 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: You know you know that you have an idea about 366 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 1: the cause of death. I think that the police will 367 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: release that when they when they get there. Here's here's 368 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 1: the sad part, Nancy, is that it's if you were 369 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: going to kill children, which is a horrific thought in 370 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: and of itself. Why would anybody even think that. I 371 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: don't think these kids were simply put to sleep and 372 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: then buried. We know that JJ was wrapped in plastic. 373 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: He was wrapped in duct tape. There was a white 374 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: plastic bag over his head. Tylie's remains were burned, she 375 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,199 Speaker 1: was dismembered. She was buried in the ground. It's not 376 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 1: like these bodies were simply buried in a decent manner. 377 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: They were. They were tortured in a way, whether before 378 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: they died or after they died. The way that they 379 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: were disposed of was not a gentle kind manner. So yeah, 380 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 1: you mentioned the death penalty. This very well could be 381 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,199 Speaker 1: a death penalty case considering all of the factors and 382 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: considering the manner in which they were disposed. Nate, do 383 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: be a favor. Slow it down a minute, tell me 384 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 1: everything you know about the bodies of these two children, slowly. 385 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 1: Let's start with Tyleie. We know that Tylie's remains were dismembered. 386 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: She was dismembered before she died. We don't know the 387 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,120 Speaker 1: specifics about that, but we do know that her remains 388 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: were also burned and they found bones when they discovered 389 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: her body. We know JJ was wrapped in well, he 390 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: was bound with duct tape, wrapped in plastic, and then 391 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: there was a white plastic bag over his head. When 392 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: you say that JJ was bound with duct tape, what 393 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: do you mean by that? Do you mean post post 394 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: mortem after his death or were his hands and feet 395 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: and fat mouth and nose curbed in duct tape. The 396 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: court documents did not go into that much detail, but 397 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: I'm told that we should know more about that, specifically 398 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: about both of their bodies, including the clothing that they 399 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: were wearing, things like that, within the coming weeks. So 400 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: the burn pit that day Bell was feeding in his 401 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: backyard was burning Tyley's body, And Cheryl McCallum, you know 402 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 1: why I'm asking how was JJ duct taped? Right? Oh, 403 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: absolutely exactly. But let's talk about Tyley first, because I 404 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: think that's relevant. There are things they're not going to 405 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: burn in that fire pit, so things like a zipper 406 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: or jewelry, things like that may tell us what was 407 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: she wearing. That would give us a better frame of 408 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: the day she went missiles. So if she's in pajamas 409 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: versus what she was seeing in her last photograph would 410 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: help with the time frame. The fact that she was 411 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: dismembered and attempted to burn they learned, hey, this is 412 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: too much trouble. We can't burn her up. So I 413 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: believe that's why JJ was treated differently. He's wrapped and 414 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 1: the way he was buried, you've got side on top 415 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: of flat rocks, on top of paneling, so they'd attempted 416 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: to cover him and also very deeply in the ground. 417 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: So this wasn't a shalla clandestine grave. This was not 418 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: done quickly. They were trying to stop you know, the 419 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: odor of somebody decomposing. They were trying to stop you know, 420 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: animal activity, and that could very well be why he 421 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: shot a raccoon, if it were a raccoon, because prior 422 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,239 Speaker 1: to getting JJ in the ground, they were trying to 423 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: stop any signs of you know, you know, crows or 424 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,199 Speaker 1: buzzards or anything that would give somebody a heads up 425 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: that something was dead on that property. Well, the reality 426 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 1: is Chad day Bell is a former grave digger, so 427 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: the man knows how to dig a grave. Crime Stories 428 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: with Nancy Grace, we are talking about cult mom Laurie 429 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: Valle's children Tyali and JJ, positively identified by their remains 430 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 1: in her fifth husband's backyard. Chad at day Bell. So 431 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: far only charges of concealment and destruction of evidence that 432 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 1: would be the children's bodies. Now, if you listen carefully, 433 00:26:54,760 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: you heard our boys, a reporter commenting on texts and 434 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: GPS tracking placing avenging angel brother Alex Cox at the 435 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: location where the children's bodies were found buried. Why is 436 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: Alex Cox there and he's only there for like I 437 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,400 Speaker 1: think it was about two hours. I guess he dropped 438 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: off the dead bodies and left out to Chad day 439 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: Belle to hide them. Joining me as a very special guest. 440 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 1: You know his name because they always call on him. 441 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 1: Telecommunications expert out of Raleigh, ben Levitan at ben Levitan 442 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: dot com. Ben explained to me how these GPS is 443 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: like calling them, but it's cell phone tracking could place 444 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: the avenging angel brother Alex Cox now also dead at 445 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: that backyard, not just the backyard, but in the same 446 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: area of the backyard where the bodies have been found. 447 00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: How does that work? It doesn't seem afraid Again, this 448 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 1: is the case of the FBI way overstating the facts. 449 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: Facts are, Nancy. Every time you make a call, or 450 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 1: you receive a call, or even a send a text 451 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: or receiver text, even try to the cell phone company 452 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: keeps a record of the dayton time you did that, 453 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: and also give it also records the cell tower to 454 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: which you were closest at the time. Now we know 455 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: if Alex Cock made a phone call from Gilbert, Arizona, 456 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: he was in Arizona. His records for a show that 457 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: his phone connected to some cell tower and Gilbert. We 458 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: cannot pinpoint that. All right, This is like a cell 459 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: tower is a little radio station that all, that's all 460 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: it is, and it probably goes in in the Idaho area, 461 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: that probably goes out five miles in every direction. We 462 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: cannot pinpoint this location. Nancy, I do criminal cases where 463 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: I'm on the defense against the FBI Cast Department all 464 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: the time, and this is where they get in trouble. 465 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,719 Speaker 1: They cannot blow this, okay, So what they can state 466 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: is he was in Gilbert, Arizona. Then they can state 467 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: that he was in Idaho. They cannot pinpoint him on 468 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: that property. With the cell phone records. There is some 469 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: possibility that he was using his GPS and they just can't. 470 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it stands to reason that he was on 471 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: the you know, if they have him off a cell 472 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: tower and in Rexburg he and that cell tower covers 473 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: this compound, it stands the reason he was there, but 474 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: they can't pinpoint him. And Nancy, this is what the 475 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: FBI it does all the time. This Cast department is 476 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: about seventeen agents. And you would think when you think 477 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: FBI cell Phone Lab that they stole a bunch of 478 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: people from eighteen teen verizons. Not one of these guys, Nancy, 479 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: has ever worked in engineering or in the cell phone industry. 480 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: These guys are good guys, are good investigators, but cell 481 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: phones is not their things. So you know, if they 482 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: keep pushing to put this on Alex Scott and everything 483 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: gets playing on Alex Scott, he's dead and no one 484 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: gets convicted, Nancy, So you have to well, you know, 485 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: I disagree with you right there, ben Levitana. I don't 486 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: disagree with you regarding the cell phone data because locating 487 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: a mobile phone based on a single cell tower can 488 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: place the mobile phone in a very broad area, but 489 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: it cannot pinpoint like within a blot. Now, as the 490 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: phone connects to more towers than just one cell phone tower, 491 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: the accuracy improves by using cell tower triangulation, which means 492 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: three towers. You can assume that from triangle with three points, 493 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: if you have three towers, it is possible, to my 494 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: understanding of the science, to locate a cell phone two 495 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: within an area of about half a mile to three 496 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: quarters of a mile. Not in this area, Nancy, this 497 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: is a very oral area. But if there are three 498 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: cell towers. The address my question, address my question. If 499 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: there is triangulation between three cell towers, ben Levitan, isn't 500 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: it true that a cell phone can be id located 501 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: within about three quarters of a mile. That's not true, Afraid, 502 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: it's not true. It's an apocaple. Well, I guess you're 503 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: gonna disagree with the FCC. Okay, the Federal Communications Commission, 504 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 1: But all right, I respect your opinion. So let me 505 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: ask you, Nate Eten, what exactly are they saying about 506 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: Alex Cox, because I bet you anything, they had GPS 507 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: track on him as well. Well, they could have had 508 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: GPS tracking on his phone had he been turned on. 509 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: They were able to determine that he had visited Chad's 510 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: property only four times in that you know, two three 511 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: month period. Two of the visits were very very short. 512 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: The longest visit was the two hours stay that you 513 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: mentioned right after the disappearance of one of the kids. 514 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: So it wasn't like he was going to Chad's every 515 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: day and it was abnormal. They know that after he 516 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: disposed of one of the bodies, apparently he stopped at 517 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: Del Taco for lunch and stayed a few minutes and 518 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: then went home the rest of the day, so they 519 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: were able to track his activity, the number of visits 520 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: that he went out there, how long he stayed based 521 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: off of whatever activity they were monitoring on hold on, 522 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: hold on, hold on. So in his life, Alex Cox 523 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: has been at Chad day Bell's four times, according to 524 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 1: his phone. Can you tell me, Nate Atan, how big 525 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: is Chad day Bell's property. He has a pretty decent side. 526 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: I'd said it about an acre probably. Okay, that's good. 527 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: That's good. I got it. An acre. Let's move on. 528 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 1: So do you know if there's more than one cell 529 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: tower in the area, Nate Eaton, I personally don't know that. Well, 530 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: you got to find out, Nate. I will find out. Okay. So, 531 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: even though Levitan disagrees with the FCC, according to the FCC, 532 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 1: with three cell towers, you can triangulate down to three 533 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: quarters of a mile. He's been there four times in 534 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: his life. And tell me, Nate Eaton, the last time 535 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: that Alex Cox went to Chad Dayville's property where the 536 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: dead bodies were found. How close in time was that 537 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 1: to the children's disappearance. It was the last time JJ 538 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: was saught. It was the last the next day, the 539 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: day after jj was last seen. Okay, got it? Got it. 540 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: One last question regarding Alex Cox's Del Taco launch, was 541 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: that the day that the children that Jjane Tyley went 542 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,280 Speaker 1: missing that we know us, Yes, it was that same day. 543 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: It was the same day after he went to day 544 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: Bell's house for two hours. And what can you tell 545 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: me about the bonfire Chad day bill Head going in 546 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: his house and the timing of that bonfire and the 547 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:25,919 Speaker 1: timing of the text to his wife that he shot 548 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: a raccoon and buried it in the backyard. I don't 549 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: know the specifics about the bonfires. We do know that 550 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: neighbors told police that they were having more bonfires. There's 551 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: a fire pit right in the backyard. One of the 552 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 1: bodies was found right near the fire pit. And the 553 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: timing of the raccoon you seek about this. Had these 554 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 1: people left their phones at home or somewhere else, the 555 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: police may have never found these bodies. But because Chad 556 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 1: day Bell sent that text message to his wife around 557 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,320 Speaker 1: in the eleven o'clock hour that morning, right around the 558 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: same time Alex was at the house, he sent the 559 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 1: message to Tammy saying he saw the raccoon they pulled 560 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 1: this off of Tammy's phone, they were able to say 561 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: that Chad day Bell was doing something with Alex Cox 562 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 1: in the backyard that day. He said that he shot 563 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 1: the raccoon, he buried the raccoon to cover the tracks, 564 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: obviously that something was being buried. And then he said 565 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 1: he was going to go right. He was going to 566 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: go right at the university, and Tammy responded and said, 567 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: you know, fun times are good for you, something like that, 568 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 1: and then he said I'm back home. So it was 569 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,919 Speaker 1: that message to Tammy that placed him that we're able 570 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 1: to place him with alex Cox that same day, that 571 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: same time period, right after the disappearance of Tiley. Right now, 572 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 1: we are waiting for additional charges and waiting to find 573 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: the truth. We are waiting as justice un falls. Nancy 574 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: Grace Crime Story, signing off goodbye friend,
