In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," defense attorney Bob Motta discusses the recent testimonies of Chad Daybell's children in his trial. Unlike Lori Vallow Daybell's trial, Chad's children testified, potentially to instill reasonable doubt. However, Motta asserts their testimony may be harming rather than helping Chad's case. He describes the children as indoctrinated and robotic, following their father's beliefs without question. The conversation delves into specific testimonies, such as discussions of "death percentages" and Lori Vallow's children’s whereabouts. Motta questions the children's credibility, noting their unwavering acceptance of Chad's explanations. He also critiques the prosecution's strategy of presenting a "pre-buttle" case and highlights the challenge of sentencing, potentially involving mental health defenses. Motta reflects on the nature of the case, likening Chad's control over his children to Lori's influence over Chad, and ponders the dark implications of their beliefs and actions.
