PHOENIX (AP) — An Idaho man accused along with his wife of conspiring to commit murder in the killings of her two children will not face criminal charges in Arizona in the earlier shooting death of his wife’s former husband.
Prosecutors declined to charge Chad Daybell in Charles Vallow’s killing. Daybell’s wife, Lori Vallow Daybell, is charged with conspiring to commit murder in Vallow’s death.
She’s accused in Idaho of conspiring with Chad Daybell to kill her son, daughter and Daybell’s late wife, Tammy Daybell. Lori and Chad Daybell hold apocalyptic religious beliefs that prosecutors claim they used to justify the killings.
Chad Daybell’s attorney declined to comment.
