Lori Daybell Trial Day 5: Prosecutors rest case, 'Doomsday Mom' not testifying
The Brief Lori Vallow Daybell's second Arizona trial continues on June 11 in Phoenix. On Tuesday, a number of people took the stand, including a police detective from Rexburg, Idaho. Daybell is accused of conspiring with her late brother in the attempted murder of Brandon Boudreaux. PHOENIX - The second and final Arizona trial of Lori Vallow Daybell, the so-called "Doomsday Mom," resumed in a Phoenix courtroom on Tuesday morning. The backstory This is the second and final Arizona trial for Daybell. In this case, she is accused of conspiring with her brother, Alex Cox, in the attempted murder of Brandon Boudreaux, who once married Daybell's niece. Boudreaux was shot at outside his Gilbert home in October 2019. While Boudreaux was not hit, the incident is linked to a series of deadly events in Idaho, including the murders of Daybell's two children, Joshua "JJ" Vallow and Chad Daybell's first wife, Tammy. In April 2025, Daybell was also found guilty of plotting the fatal shooting of her fourth husband, Charles Vallow, in Chandler. Just like she did in her first Arizona trial, Daybell is representing herself. The trial kicked off on Thursday, June 5 with both sides presenting their opening statements. During Daybell's opening statement, multiple objections were made by the prosecuting attorney, Treena Kay. A day later, Daybell was briefly removed from the courtroom after an intense exchange with the presiding judge. What Happened Yesterday On June 10, Daybell continued her cross-examination of Gilbert Police Officer Ryan Pillar, who also testified on June 9. Pillar is the case agent who investigated the shooting at Brandon Boudreaux's home on Oct. 2, 2019. During Vallow Daybell's cross-examination, she questioned Gilbert's lack of testing to determine the type of gun used, why Boudreaux's Tesla vehicle was not kept in evidence, and the trajectory of the shooting. Prosecuting attorney Treena Kay later re-directed testimony to argument that evidence showed a clear shooting from a Jeep Wrangler that was allegedly driven by Cox, who died in December 2019. Later on, Lieutenant Ray Hermosillo from Rexburg, Idaho took the stand. Lt. Hermosillo was one of the detectives on the case against Lori and Chad Daybell, a crucial part of the investigation leading to the discovery of the remains of Joshua "JJ" Vallow and Tylee Ryan on Chad Daybell's property in June 2020. Daybell did not choose to cross-examine Hermosillo. During Tuesday's proceedings, we also saw photos of rifles discovered in Alex Cox's garage at his Rexburg apartment. In Other News... On the morning of June 11, we obtained legal documents related to a motion that Daybell filed that seeks the recusal of Judges Jennifer Green and Justin Beresky. Per the legal documents, a judge has dismissed Daybell's motion, stating that the motion can't be filed after a hearing or trial began.

State AGs led by NY's Letitia James pressure Meta to clean up investment scams on Facebook
A group of 42 state attorneys general are calling on Meta to curb the rise of investment scams on Facebook that fraudulently use the images of Warren Buffett and other famous figures, New York Attorney General Letitia James said Wednesday. James said in a news release criminals are consistently evading Meta's automated and human review systems to post fake ads that leave retail investors saddled with millions of dollars in losses. Her office continues to see the scams months after reporting them to Meta, she added. The ads, touting access to Buffett, Elon Musk or Ark Invest's Cathie Wood, lure Facebook users to join chat groups on Meta-owned messaging platform, WhatsApp, according to the New York AG. There, users are unwittingly involved in alleged pump-and-dump schemes, where criminals boost the price of thinly traded stocks and quickly sell for a profit, leaving small investors with losses. Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, is struggling to control the rise of cyber scams on its platforms and is a "cornerstone of the internet fraud economy," the Wall Street Journal reported last month. The problem is global in nature, with one notable lawsuit being brought by an Australian billionaire who alleges that Meta's artificial intelligence-run advertising program created and amplified false ads using his likeness. "Thousands of Facebook users have lost hundreds of millions of dollars to these scams and Meta must do more to stop these fraudulent ads from running on its platforms," James said. "I am leading a bipartisan coalition calling on Meta to step up its review of ads to stop these scams. I also urge all New Yorkers to be extra careful before putting their money in investments they see advertised on social media." The AGs urged Meta to boost its policing of ads, including with more human review, saying that unless they curb the scams, Meta should stop running investment ads altogether. Joining James were AGs from states including California, Connecticut, Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Scooter Braun On The Tragic Impacts Of Childhood Fame
This post discusses addiction and mental health struggles. For many years, it's been incredibly common to see child stars navigate personal difficulties as they get older in the public eye. It's happened with some of the best-known former-child-stars in Hollywood: Lindsay Lohan, Daniel Radcliffe, Demi Lovato, and Drew Barrymore have all talked openly about dealing with addiction or mental health struggles as they navigated fame. Fortunately, though, these stars have gone on to live happy and healthy lives, which, as we know, sadly isn't the way things have played out for others. If there's one person who knows a thing or two about working with young talent, it's Scooter Braun. Earlier in their careers, he managed the likes of Demi, Ariana Grande, and most famously, Justin Bieber, whom he discovered on YouTube in 2008 when the singer was just 13. Scooter managed Justin for 15 years, and in that time, it's no secret that JB faced some difficulties, having previously opened up about using drugs as a 'numbing agent to just continue to get through' at the height of his fame. In 2014, a then-19-year-old Justin was memorably arrested for driving under the influence in Miami after being caught street racing. The charges against the singer were eventually dropped. Justin reportedly stopped taking drugs sometime in 2014, and, while he's been seen smoking what appears to be weed more recently, his reps have denied that he uses hard drugs. Now, during an appearance on this week's episode of the Diary of a CEO podcast, Scooter was asked about the 'difficulty' at this point in Justin's life, and why fame at a young age can be incredibly 'confusing' for child stars as they get older. Notably, the host, Steven Bartlett, used the late Liam Payne as an example, asking why so many young artists are impacted by addiction, pain, and in some cases, tragedy. 'I feel a lot of guilt. I feel a lot of guilt because I worked with so many young artists, and I hadn't taken the time to look at myself or do the therapy myself until I was older,' Scooter replied, reflecting on his position as a manager to young artists in the 2010s. 'I didn't understand at 25 years old, at 27, at 30, that they each were coming from very unique backgrounds, of their own stuff with their own families, and their own childhood, and growing up this way…and being judged by the whole world at a very young age.' After considering his role in the cycle, Scooter put child stars' struggles down to two things: the first being that 'human beings are not made to be worshiped.' 'When we worship human beings, it changes something within us, it messes us up a little bit, because that's not what we're built for, and I think that can be very confusing,' he explained. 'Being able to transcend the childhood of people cheering your name and everything else at that level, and get to the place where the artists I've worked with are, where they are in healthy relationships and with their families, and still working through stuff… I think it's a testament to their strength.' 'The nature of being on that stage that young and people chanting your name,' he said. 'I didn't realized that till I got older.' The second aspect that Scooter said may have played a role is the lack of time put into taking care of child stars' mental well-being. 'I understand the importance now of really putting in the time to make sure mental health is addressed, and that we have an outlet to speak to someone outside of the crew,' he said. 'There's a lot of things that I learned within myself that I wish I knew back then.' Talking more specifically about Liam — who died last October after previously speaking about battling drug and alcohol addiction and suicidal thoughts during his post-One Direction career — Scooter recalled meeting the 1D boys 'before they really blew up.' 'I met Liam back then, and I met the excited young kid with the voice. Yet, each one of them has had a different experience,' he said, referring to Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik. 'Each one of them has had a different story of perseverance and tragedy. And that's the thing.' 'You just never know what the cocktail is gonna make of life,' he added. 'And I think that idea of, 'We're not made to be worshiped' — that can play funny things on the mind.' What do you make of Scooter's take on all this? Let me know in the comments section.
