Lori Vallow Makes Bizarre Statement at Sentencing | Analysis of Lori Vallow Speech 

The judge's ruling in this case was spot on and worth watching. He really called her out for her self-serving, maniacal statement.

Her ENTIRE speech of fiction was infuriating to listen to. However, I felt that the most disturbing part was when she said that Tammy was her friend and that they visited with each other regularly. Tammy had never even met Lori. Lori committed adultery with Tammy’s husband, conspired to kill Tammy while she was still married to Chad, and married Chad just two weeks after Tammy was killed. Tammy was everything that Lori was not; a great wife, mother, friend, daughter, sister, etc. etc. etc. Lori could NEVER be what Tammy was in eternal lives!!! I felt for Tammy’s family when Lori was talking about her! I hope that Lori has a miserable existence for the rest of her life!!!

A truly evil woman. I can't even begin to imagine the horror of her children's last moments of life...knowing their own mother was killing them.

Glad you've covered this. Hyperreligiosity with Narcissistic features is a form of personality disorder and not delusional Schizophrenia. Lori committed these killings not because she was having fits of active hallucinatory delusion but to get what she wanted in her life. She knew what she did were morally and legally wrong - the great length she went to and the manipulations she took up just shows the knowledge of her guilt, the guilt that's pushed aside none the less. So many RU-vidrs have no clue about the difference between Schizophrenic delusions and self-justifications and lie that a grandiose Narcissist weaves to delude herself. Lori is just in denial of her feelings of entitlement that compelled her to eliminate obstacles in order to achieve the lifestyle she wanted, because she knows deep inside that her true motivations are less than wholesome, let alone spiritual. BTW now that her sister Summer seems to have fallen back to the default state that this family( Summer and Lori's mum) loves to be in, blaming what Lori has been found guilty of, to the 'illness', now that it is named by the judge. I reckon the mum's absence throughout this court case was a result of her embarrassment, rather than her feeling of crushing guilt. Typical of this Narcissistic family.

Lori and Chad are both manipulative monsters.

She is revolting. Her nutty statement was a bizarre FU to the world for daring to hold her accountable.

The look on the judge's face the entire time that she was talking says it all... He was horrified, baffled, and im sure was blown away by her statement!

I love how Dr Grande can say the funniest things with a completely straight face.

You deserve all the likes for keeping a straight face while explaining her beliefs

Lori took being a narcissist to a whole new level bu claiming to be a 'chosen one'. She made excuses for all those murders that were actually done to benefit her and Chad financially. Killing their spouses was bad enough but killing those two children is horrific on a whole other level. It is our base instinct to protect children, especially our own. Her and Chad are truly monsters.

I would add: 1-She now faces trial in AZ for conspiracy, in CV’s murder. 2- CV was threatening to tell Chad’s wife when he was killed. 3- She SECRETLY moved to Idaho. 4- Lori’s sister says she never heard anything about death during Tylee’s birth.

Well done! “Heavenly child labor laws,” best quote. I completely agree with your assessment, she had to justify her actions to live with herself, I have never heard a more self centered person explain their actions, the scary part is that she doesn’t sound totally crazy, making her even more dangerous. Happy to see the sentence that was imposed.

Samantha, the sister of Tanmy allegedly commented that hilarious speech as follows: ‚Don’t know, who visited her, but it was certainly not my sister.‘

the ability to put these videos out so quickly and with great detail and accuracy is really impressive

It’s actually pretty terrifying to think that someone could believe they are a deity and then carry out horrendous crimes against their loved ones, feeling completely justified. It’s scarier than any horror movie I’ve ever seen.

what really makes me angry is that little JJ fought for his life they didn't have the decency to put him to sleep before they murdered him. I can't even imagine how scared and confused he must have been 😡

How come no one says they were just a housekeeper, field worker, serf or something else mundane in their past lives! Always so grand! Thank you Dr. Grande for another fascinating video!

She’s lying. She was sane enough to run away for a Hawaiian vacation. She’s so self absorbed and didn’t care about her own kids.

I've been following this case since Jan 2020. I strongly believe Lori is not delusional but rather very good at spinning extravagant tales.

Your analysis is more than informative. It was the simple most bang on description of Lori Vallow I've ever heard. A lot of people in the true crime world don't quite know if she was her idea, or Chad's, or both. I love how you said that he "inspired several delusions in Lori". That is exactly what happened. I think they met and their personalities basically resonated so much that they added to the amplitude of each other (already massive in ego) to become a horrible storm.

I’m gonna go ahead and diagnose this woman - she’s crazy.

I don't think she should have even been allowed to read a statement that like out loud in court. If you can't say you're sorry, forget it. Nobody cares what else you may have to say.

I was looking forward to your take on her ridiculous statement and it did not disappoint! Lori is truly a bizarre human but in her mind, she’s perfectly above normal. Wow. Sickening.

This case should give a huge warning to all those people who believe in 'their truth', 'our truth' , 'my truth' and 'your truth'.

Thank you for covering this. Lori is where she needs to be, behind bars. What a sick and cruel person.

Dr. Grande has such dedication to his craft and viewers… He got back from the club and immediately filmed a vid for us! Lookin’ fly, Dr. G

If Lori's NDE was true (and I don't believe her for a second) then she is in trouble if she felt her soul sink to the floor. Common consensus amongst NDE people, who have medical evidence that they had to be brought back by doctors, is that the soul rises up and views the body from above. I can't say one way or the other, but I found it interesting that Lori's soul was heading the wrong way in her story.

Great upload❇️ I've always loved the lil burns Dr. G throws at the criminals.

If Lori really believed death is better she wouldn't have asked her attorney's to do away with the death penalty. Her attorney's worked hard to get the death penalty thrown out & the judge did what she wanted.

Just a reminder, I'm not diagnosing anybody in this video; only speculating about someone who minimizes their crimes and evades responsibility like this.

Love the shirt Dr. Grande. Happy Anniversary 🎉

Dr Grande! I absolutely love the shirt! Thanks also for providing an update on this case, it’s fascinating how off the rails Lorri became!

Lori is a truly disgusting human being.. And not a soul should ever show her any acknowledgement ever again. Thanks Dr.Grande for analysis as usual..

😂😂😂the whole “busy” part just made me burst out laughing, it’s so beyond bizarre!

Excellent, Dr grande. I watched as much as I could about this case. Revolted doesn't actually describe my feelings.

I was waiting for you to cover what she said, Dr. Grande. I was so annoyed and my blood was boiling when she said those things

'Out of body family reunion'...😂 Thank you Dr. G for bringing a bit of humor Into such horrific stories. Appreciate all you do. ❤

Dr, G, your disgust at such a person, wrapped in your trademark deadpan humor when you are dealing with someone this ridiculous, is a lot of what makes this satire fan get so much out of your analyses. I also appreciate the compassion you express towards those who deserve it. Keep up the good work.

Lately I've been watching your videos and your ability to deliver irony without being insulting is a true gift, it also makes such cases a bit less horrifying .Also it's a perfect way for me to be informed of many cases as you give such a concise briefing. Thank you 😊.

This is why society needs to listen to children and people who claim they are being abused. Even if its by their "beautiful" mother, wife, sister etc.

What would have been truly bizarre is if she had of apologized.

Dear. Dr Grande I am glad you are analyzing this.

I haven't tuned in to your channel in a while, but I love the changes you've made to your background! Nice shirt too

I hope Chad is feeling all warm and fuzzy since she didn't even mention him at all.

“…Heavenly labor laws..” Good one, Doc!😂

Dr. Grande, I listen to your comments frequently and love them. I wish your lovely wife a very happy birthday and Happy anniversary to you both!

Can always count on your summaries for accuracy. Thank you and love the shirt 😊

Funny how she enjoyed sharing what made her special on podcasts and took every opportunity to tell ppl how great she was yet that out of body story was never shared. She really assumes we are stupid.😒

I don’t know about this case, but the shirt is next level. 👏 👏 👏 Lookin fly Dr. Grande.

I gotta hear Dr. Grande on this one again. So many good Grande zingers.❤

Great shirt Doc 🌴🌺🌴🌺

The reference to them being busy is because of the LDS belief that those who make it to the celestial kingdom will spend eternity doing heavenly work.

Her close death experience, not known by her sister and family. They heard this the first time in her statement.😳

I’ve been waiting for your take on this…

Dr Grande has excelled himself even yet again.

When she said that when vacationing in heaven at Tylee's birth "I thought my children would be fine w/o me" boy was she right. I doubt she was smart enough to even see the irony of that statement. At what point does a delusion break down? And is it really a delusion if the person can simultaneously use it to further their selfish plans? I'm not sure this sociopath is really that delusional. Rather, she seems to have a history of lying and justifying everything she does w/pure bs. Her speech was revolting, of course, but does she really believe any of it?

She has not aged well during all of this stress induced by her evil behavior.

Dr. Grande!!!! Your shirt though!!!! I love it!!!!!!! Also your videos, they are great! I especially enjoy your sense of humor. 😁 *for anyone wondering: all exclamation marks were absolutely necessary*

Hi from Humboldt County California 🌲🌲 🌊 ❤ on the coast near the Oregon boarder. Thank you for always teaching us! I love your wit and your background 🏜

I would bet ten bucks that her brother Alex was also murdered by some drug. Also her ex-husband.

Love the shirt as much as your channel 😊❤ Happy Anniversary 🎉

Dr Grande, I've watched a ton of your videos and always love your dark sarcasm and how you keep such a straight face. You are always spot-on. This woman is a nut case. Those poor babies. 💔

Dr. Grande, I love your shirt tonight! It's a perfect representation of your online personality. Black and white, cut and dry scientific analysis intermingled with colorful unexpected humor and wit. 🤓

Just when I think I've heard the craziest thing ever...you post another video that out does every prior act of crazy. Lori ...doing Gods work and now the victims are very happy ...and tall. She is where she needs to be. Thanks once again, Dr. Grande!

Happy birthday Mrs. G and happy anniversay to you both! 🎂🎈🎉

Dr. Grande - your shirt is fire! Love your channel - keep up the excellent work. 🎉

Dr. Grande, I love your thoughtful analysis and commentary. The statement that Lori made had me rolling my eyes and shaking my head. It is obvious that this woman is very lost within her beliefs. I think you are correct, this statement was a way for her to justify (if only to herself) what she did. I know this isn't a situation to laugh at, but your dry humor and slight sarcasm while delivering well-informed commentary makes it easier to understand this situation. I love the comment about "heavenly child labor laws" and your shirt is on point! Keep doing what you do. You are so good at it!

I didn't follow this case but know the basics. This is an interesting analysis but I would have liked to have known the real underlying reasons for her actions. Her so called beliefs are BS and I am sure she knows they are deep down. Her real motivations were likely a desire to free herself from being tied to kids. This woman was married multiple times which tells me she is not capable of being in a relationship which requires you to surrender some of the freedoms of a single life. She is obviously self centered and a narcissist. This Daybell character with his kooky religious stuff was just her next new identity phase.

If she truly beIieved her kids were in heaven and dying was for the best, then she would admit she indeed killed them. But she didn't. She implied that they could have died from illness or accidentally.

Happy anniversary, Dr. G. And to your wife, HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉🎉🎉 Nice festive party shirt, by the way.

Yay! Thank you for posting this!

You crack me up with your analysis. The side comments 😂. Love your shirt. Keep up the good work!

Glad you are addressing this so fast!

Again I say!! What is in the water out west!!???

Wow! Cool shirt! Thanks for your analysis. Really informative.

"out of body family reunion" 🤣 a tip of the hat to you, sir! This whole video is gold!

You are by far the hardest working youtuber!!! The videos you do, the amount of detail you put into them, the editing (they aren't short videos either they're pretty good length). I suppose your wife helps you with some of the stuff too. You you guys look so cute and so happy together!! Congratulations on 30 years together and happy birthday to her. By the way you definitely are by far not only the hardest-working RU-vidr t You are the funniest your jokes and humor are unmatched even if the topoc is sad or horrific the one liners you have are funny and lighten the heavyness! Neway thanks for the vidos i cant wait for more!

Happy anniversary! To many more!

Great shirt, Dr Todd!

Dr Todd Grande's shirt collection is reaching epic style proportions.

The NDE story, which has never been heard by her close friends and family before, was a message to Chad. Also, I thought her statement that she misses heaven and wants to go back indicated that she's suicidal. This goes along with Dr. Grande's assessment that she freed her children from pain: Lori sees death as freedom from pain, ergo the pain she experiences with 3 life sentences could be relieved by taking her own life. These are just my thoughts/points of view on her bizarre statement.

I’d buy the theory that she was delusional (in a psychological sense) if all of her crimes didn't also secretly substantially benefit her leisure time and bank account (or so she thought). It just so happened that the million dollar life insurance beneficiary was changed and she got caught for her crimes, but she did all the best she could to get away with it and live her very best life. That, to me, is narcissism and greed many measures beyond the possible existence of any mental health delusions she may hold. As a side note, it’s comical in a dark way how criminals like Lori profess that their victims are in a better place. If death and heaven are so great why didnt/doesn’t she send herself up to the pearly gates.

Here for Grande's cool Aloha shirt. 🌺🌷

Ya! I was waiting for this! Thank you!

That shirt is top shelf.

Due to some sort of "heavenly child labor laws?!?"😂😂😂 dr you just made my day!!!😊😊😊

You know my favorite part about watching Dr. Grande is his deadpan humor.

I love your assessment. Simple and the best I’ve heard.

I listened to a podcast where the Medical Examiner gave his report on the children. Those kids were very afraid and there is no doubt in my mind that what Chad and Lori deserve if the same death sentence that they gave those children.

I...this level of AUDACITY is just insane. Lori legit just told people she's the only one allowed to judge others and that she essentially did nothing wrong...I...my heart breaks for JJ's grandparents and for all the other family members who didn't stand by Lori and who lost their loved ones. I feel bad for Tammy's family too...I cannot imagine how DEVASTATING it must've been to hear the woman who took part in these premature, sensless deaths absolve herself of all wrongdoing and even say that her victims are all happy and busy and visited HER to give HER comfort and to tell her how happy they are and how amazing she is. She literally rubbed salt into these people's wounds, publically and on stand. I don't condone vigilanteism...usually but honestly, if any of these people just ran up to her and beat her to death or stabbed her and killed her I wouldn't fault them.

Happy anniversary 🎉😊❤and Happy 50th to your gorgeous wife ❤!!! Excellent video....I expect nothing less!

❤ your shirt Dr G!

Delusional she sounds but she knew exactly what she was doing!

I have worked with TBI, developmentally disabled, schizophrenic and bi polar population. Counseling, behavioral assistant. And no matter what the disorder, disability, for the most part clients were nice or they could be mean. But I believe through behavioral and cognitive therapy and sometimes meds behaviors can change but personality and selfish or selflessness doesn't change all that much.

I absolutely love your "sense of humor". I never miss one of your posts!

I was going to request this Thanks Dr.

Thank you Dr. Grande for your concise info on all your cases. I really enjoy your channel. Love your humor too❤

The SSI checks and life insurance payments of her victims were just a fringe benefit .😮

Hello doc, love you shirt. Hello from Bay Ridge Brooklyn

GREAT SHIRT and great video
