Chad Daybell sits during a court hearing, Aug. 4, 2020, in St. Anthony, Idaho. The trial of a man charged with the deaths of his wife and his girlfriend's two youngest children is set to begin in Idaho this week, serving as a second act in a bizarre case that has drawn worldwide attention and already resulted in a life sentence for the mother of the children.
Chad and Lori Daybell originally were scheduled to stand trial together, but in 2022 Prior asked the court to split the cases, saying the co-defendants will have “mutually antagonistic defences.” The legal term generally means a jury would have to disbelieve one defendant in order to believe the other.
