Chad Daybell's trial is scheduled for April, 2024. Wednesday's hearing on the numerous motions Chad Daybell's attorney John Prior filed earlier this month was an unexpected bombshell. The prosecution and the defense argued who the ringleader was: Chad Daybell or Lori Vallow? We livestreamed the hearing on our YouTube Channel, and Lauren shared her initial thoughts after the hearing.

The hearing begins with the question: Will cameras be allowed in the courtroom? It ends with an intense debate on culpability and comments by host Lauren Matthias.

Our original Beyond the Veil season continues as a forensic psychologist and journalist (who are husband and wife) explore the inner workings of Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow Daybell's minds, as well as the hidden motivations driving a series of inexplicable murders in 2019.

LAUREN MATTHIAS worked as an anchor and reporter for ABC, NBC, and FOX News in Boise, Idaho Salt Lake City, Utah. She spent a decade reporting on a diverse range of topics from high profile crimes and criminals to Presidential visits. Most recently, she reported for Salt Lake City’s ABC affiliate News4Utah and in 2015 she received the Idaho State Broadcaster’s Association Best Reporter award and reported with News Nation throughout the trial. She is the producer and editor of the Hidden True Crime Podcast along with her husband Dr. John Matthias, a forensic psychologist.
