In this episode of "Hidden Killers," Tony Brueski is joined by Bob Motta, a defense attorney and host of "Defense Diaries," to discuss the ongoing trial of Chad Daybell. They delve into the performance of Chad's sole attorney, John Pryor, analyzing his approach to the defense, which has varied in effectiveness. Motta points out Pryor's technical competence but also his failure to resonate with the jury, attributing this to his perceived condescension and repetitive questioning. The discussion covers the challenges Pryor faces in handling the case alone and the strategic decisions in presenting Chad's defense against conspiracy charges involving the deaths associated with Lori Vallow. Motta expresses a personal bias towards a conviction based on the broader narrative of the case but focuses on the courtroom dynamics and their implications for the trial's outcome.
