Interesting interview. Worth the time to watch. I thought the interviewer did a good job letting him talk. I have seen a couple of other things of interest I will try to get up.

no one on the defense had any / enough cred;

IDK if there was any forensic or eye-witness evidence, but Lori's case looked like a loser from the get-go.

I had considered it likely that darling Lori would simply tell her brother, Alex, go ye hither and do this and that, and Alex would go hither and yon and do his sister's bidding.

But then I learned that a Lori Vallow Dingbell hair was found on a piece of tape securing the wrappings around her daughter's remains, which I took to mean that she was likely present when the doings was a'doing.

I no longer worship her.

No, the hair/tape was on the little boy. There was... not enough left of the daughter. The difference in how the two were killed/treated I think is very telling. I think there was a lot of rage, and perhaps jealousy, directed towards the daughter.

I found it interesting that the juror, having seen a lot more than we did, felt that Chad may have started off being the driver but that Lori became the dominant one in the relationship.

Susan, I just saw a part of that interview, but it was very interesting. Thanks for sharing it. As I was watching, I thought that is exactly the sort of juror that you would want -- a sincere, thoughtful, and reasonably open-minded individual, willing to consider all sides. I was struck by his wish that Lori would have revealed just *some* sort of humanity -- as he explained it, he badly wanted to see that, and got nothing in return. I understand why her lawyers didn't put her on the stand -- that would have been far too risky -- but not putting her on the stand had consequences as well. There was simply no evidence that she was anything other than a cold-blooded killer or accomplice to a killer.
