Judge issues 'gag' order after Chad Daybell's attorney does TV interview

Thu, March 28th 2024 at 5:33 PMLarry Woodcock, left, talks with defense attorneys James Archibald, middle, and John Thomas after the verdict was read in the murder trial of Lori Vallow Daybell at the Ada County Courthouse in Boise, Idaho, Friday, May 12, 2023. Vallow Daybell was found guilty on all counts. Judge Boyce has issued a new order in the case of Chad Daybell days before the case is set to begin jury selection after Chad's lawyer does a TV interview.

John Prior, Chad's Attorney, did a TV interview this week in the lead-up to the trial. Following this interview, Judge Boyce released a non-dissemination order targeted at the attorneys involved in this case. Chad Daybell is potentially facing the death penalty in this case if found guilty, meaning the process to find a non-biased jury is much more rigorous than normal trials. Questionnaires have already been completed by potential jurors who will begin arriving for jury selection on Monday morning.

The order by Judge Boyce addresses a concern that any dissemination of information, evidence, or opinions that could potentially taint the jury pool. CBS2 will be covering the trial of Chad Daybell, beginning with jury selection on Monday, right here on Idahonews.com.
