Lori Vallow's defense team has made efforts to block J.J. Vallow's grandparents, Kay and Larry Woodcock, from sitting in on the double murder trial as witnesses in the case.
EastIdahoNews.com news director Nate Eaton joins Fox Nation's 'Crime Stories with Nancy Grace' to share possible evidence in relation to the Lori Vallow, Chad Daybell indictment., say they are"blindsided and heartbroken" by efforts from Vallow's defense team to ban them from her murder trial.Vallow's two children, J.J. and 17-year-old Tylee Ryan, as well as Daybell's ex-wife, Tammy Daybell, between September and October 2019.
Vallow's defense team argued that because the Woodcocks are not J.J.'s actual grandparents and therefore statutory victims in the case, they should be excluded from hearing other witness testimony. "We appreciate the outpouring of love and support from all of you after yesterday’s hearing. We were completely blindsided and heartbroken at the argument made saying we are not JJ’s grandparents and should not be considered victims in this case," the Woodcocks said in a Thursday statement shared by their attorney, Shanon Gray of Gray Law, LLC.
Kay Woodcock, murder victim J.J. Vallow's grandmother, says she doesn't"recognize" Lori Vallow anymore. J.J.'s biological father is Kay Woodcock's son. Kay and Larry Woodcock cared for J.J. until 2013, when Kay's brother — Lori Vallow's late husband — Charles Vallow agreed to adopt the then-1-year-old boy.
