Lori Vallow's Lawyer Made a Mistake That Could Kill Her Appeal

Mark Means was removed as Lori Vallow Daybell's lawyer in December 2021 in a hearing held in Chad's case, not hers. Lori was in a state hospital, found incompetent. On November 2nd, her new lawyer told the Idaho Supreme Court the removal violated her constitutional right to pick her own attorney. The justices pushed back. Chad paid for Means. Means told a judge he represented both Daybells. On a jail call, Chad said the shared lawyer worked unless they turned on each other. One justice called Means a loose cannon. Lori's appellate lawyer admits Means filed the wrong motion at the 2021 hearing. That forces her best argument onto the hardest standard in the appeal. If she wins, a new trial means the death penalty could return. Motta on whether any of it is enough.
