@@ostapbendervan7874 Guess you mean; It's eating up time, which is a skillset in which your filling empty space with BS eventually serve some crappy answer ( LIE) at the end, right? Agreed
This is eye opening, watching these 3 videos, again, after the children have been found. Also, what has come out is not only was Brandon was labeled a zombie, but two of Melani's children were labeled as zombies by Chad and Lori. Thank God she did not get the children.
Two of her children were labeled zombies? Omg thank God for Brandon and the police officers that went to arrest her the day she was sneaking into the house to take the children!
Gotta think to there’s a open investigation I’m not defending her at all cause I think she’s a nut and knows exactly what happen to the kids but I don’t think she can really fully answer some of those questions that’s why she’s dancing around them
They (Lori and the children) didn't leave for Idaho because they were being threatened, Lori was involved with Chad Daybell and that is why they moved. There were no children around in November when Melani moved to Rexburg. Melani wasn't suspicious when Lori and Chad moved to Hawaii without their children? Finally, LORI was the one having an affair with Chad at the time Charles was assassinated, and Melani definitely knew about this.
Plus, she says "oh it was a planned move by Chad and Lori to Hawaii" the SAME TIME she moved away (total coincidence she claims) the DAY AFTER the police comes asking about the children. Girl, the rest of the world is not as limited as you.
The narcissism, right, Melani, when you accuse others of the things YOU DO and manipulate everyone with lies lies lies. As if you weren't a Chad disciple. Slandering a dead man who was completely innocent. To think she now has shared custody of her children with Brandon.....
This was really sad to watch after finding the children in Chad's backyard. If Melanie P didn't give them clues to where they were, she'll probably go to jail too. You can't be dumb enough to not believe all the ppl trying to keep her from the Cox side & everyone else are the bad guys....it makes no sense. I'm sure Lori told her everything & also Melanie G said those kids are not on this planet anymore. They all act like death is nothing new. Ppl dying all around her & its just another day. Wow
Yes, and Charles, Kay and anyone else who's normal. It's very clear that she's lying through her teeth. She has a detailed explanation for everything except where the kids are.
She’s talking so much about random crap in these interviews,I have a feeling they will come back to haunt her when investigators piece together her story and realize it doesn’t make sense.
he asks her about JJ and Tylee missing and when she found out, and she says 2 weeks into November, then oh no, no, no, then around Thanksgiving they "texted" her that her apt was broken into ... and she talks about what could have been stolen, and then says the police actually broke in but NEVER says anything about missing kids ever!!!
You talk so bad about Charles. Even Colby says he was a wonderful husband,father,and step father. He lived with him so he knows him better than you and he wasn't drinking Lori's kool-aid like you are!!!
I loved how she was talking trash about Charles, yet her aunt was having an affair with Chad while she was married to Charles!!! She's trying to convince us Lori is NOT the monster we all think she is!!!
@@louchris9001 So true and she tried blaming Charles and Brandon for making up this whole cult zombie thing. But after watching Mel Gibbs interview we know for a fact these teachings did come from Chad and Lorie. She said she didn't know about their beliefs but then said Lori and Alex where her best friends. Mel. G also said Alex definitely believed in the zombie thing. So if she only hung out with Alex and Lori wouldn't she know about their faith. She acts all "christian" knowing her aunt and Chad where having affairs. I'm sure she knew everything Mel G. Knew. Both Melanies use the same word when it came to Lori "Best Friend". You usually call someone a best friend cuz you know things about them that others don't. Just sayin!!
I don't trust this woman at all. Ian is an idiot to get involved with this horror of a family. Yeah, Melani, we saw you go up there to see (or rather steal) your kids. Glad someone had the smarts to finally arrest you. She needs a FULL review.
She's lying. She moves to be near Lori but then says she never sees her. She says shes all about kids kids kids, but never manages to ask about JJ or Tylee. She said Lori told her to move to be near her but in another interview she said Loris move to Hawaii was planned, so why would she move to be near Lori if Lori was already planning to move away? And Ian has gotten sucked in. I hope his ex wife keeps their kids far away and keeps herself in hiding since exes dont live long in this group.
There's so much wrong with what Melanie is saying. Example: "JJ loved his school in Rexburg"??? Did he attend that school for any significant period of time? It makes one question everything she claims.
Lori is such a great mom! Hasn't seen or spoken to her kids in 8 months or so. If she had hidden the kids somewhere 'for their safety' how does she even know that they're still safe? To go to the extreme to hide them so no one would ever find them, and never hearing from them should be terrifying for any mom that truly cared for her children.
Natalie Palowski appears to be the only genuine, concerned person, between Melani Boudreaux Palowski, Ian, etc. Melanie knows what happened. She clearly lies. Maybe the lawyers sitting just off camera have schooled her into saying shit about her own children and skip Tylee and JJ...I bet she's been offered immunity. As for her children, Brandon Beaudraux should keep them in hiding, period!
@@charliecharlton9782 That is really inappropriate and rude. MP may be off but there is no reason to act like a bigot and bring a whole religion into all of this.
Not funny She amazing I see so much skill Other see dodgy This is how you Conduct interviews Not ahh ahhj So give her credit I.love it You know EXACTLY what.i am.sayin This is special skill StASIHAUS..I LOVE IT INFORMATION SOCIETY WISE.
EIN, go back and interview BRANDON and KAY. For REBUTTAL. I think she’s full of bull. She keeps circling back to her OWN agenda, wants, needs, and throws IN a bunch of fluff about Lori and Alex (lest we forget about just how WONDERFUL they are). I noted there was not much about Chad in her droning-on rhetoric. She kept offering up word-vomit on her OWN case, but taking stabs at Kay, at authorities, at Brandon. Somebody needs to remind this chick, CHARLES did NOT “pass away”. Alex killed him. I also noted that the WHOLE FAMILY SURE had communication with each other and with everybody ELSE in the family on all events and matters, EXCEPT when it came down to two missing children. Then, they became apathetic, unconcerned, mute, “trusting Lori”, etc.
Leigh shell the only reason I’m glad they are interviewing this complete lying idiot is her words will come back to haunt her and get her some serious time like her wonderful aunt.
Charles was the baddie, having affairs and making threats... okayyyy but what about Lori’s affair and Planning a wedding before Chad’s wife died? What about kids no one has seen? Charles hasn’t threatened since July. Why was Lori planning to get married to someone with a wife??
Where is the evidence that Charles was cheating? I think that’s all BS .. Lori is absolutely nuts.. She lied about her husband Joe in order to get rid of him and move onto her next victim.. Melanie is taking absolute rubbish.. She believes all of Lori’s lies…
There's no evidence Charles was having affairs. Lori was/is the master manipulator and liar. Makes me wonder about Joseph Ryan - he was always trying to get custody of Tylee. Maybe he wasn't the bad person Lori made him out to be either. In hinds sight, his death seems very strange. We'll never know the truth - Lori had him cremated!
She agreed two of her children were zombies - hence liable for killing - as well as her husband who had to go into hiding with their children. Where's her accountability?
So she spent all her time with Alex the man that more than likely had a hand in horrifically killing/mudering two children. Wrapped JJ in tape put him in plastic bags and buried him in a paddock. The horrific murder of Tylee dismembered and burnt. Also her bad mouthing Kay the person that actually did love and care what was going on with JJ. What a bunch of disgusting people. Repeating Lori's lies about Charles disgusting.
No one in this family takes any responsibility for their actions. It's always someone else's fault. If they think these interviews are going to change anyone's minds, they're sadly mistaken.
IAN, they found the bodies today. Just RUN, get away from that family, get a divorce and thank god you are still alive. Your wife knew something, it is a cult, she knew. RUN.
She is just like Leticia! She even said she wasn't all that upset that the authorities knocked down her door and took her things because they are doing an investigation. It reminds me when Letecia said how she was ok with how detectives tracked her and Harley down and threatened them in the mall. I think if you're innocent, you wouldn't take those things so lightly. They just want to seem like friends with the police even if they treat you like you are guilty of something.
Born to lie, manipulate and deceive. Killing ? well, her loving aunt is doing it, so, I expect she may be interested. Her ex husband almost got shot by likely old hit man Alex. What a family !
Why does she keep blaming Kay? If she has seen the texts then where are they? Kay and Charles are the only ones concerned for these children in that family. Ian better get out while he can.
Also Lori’s oldest son is very upset and is close to Charles and Kay. These 3 and the police and the rest of the country care more than Lori and her niece
Lori was infuriated with Kay that she got Charles's estate and she didnt!..thats why Lori killed JJ, simply to spite Kay bc she knew how much Kay loved JJ...
Damage control. That’s their purpose of these interviews. Stories about people who can’t defend themselves because they are now dead. Too many 'ands' and 'ums' and 'you knows'. Would love to see a body language review on them.
Deedee... I so agree. Some of it is her age. Oh gosh, hope that doesn’t offend, but it seems there is a majority of people from a certain age bracket to the young people of today that can’t speak without saying certain words such as 'like' 'um' 'and uh' 'you know' the list is growing. I am 68 and listening to the young people today is so painful. Not all, mind you, but the majority. Melanie is definitely brainwashed and probably from birth if that is possible. Her story we heard in this long interview is not her story, but that of those who have influenced her. And, she isn’t telling what she knows, but she is covering for them. Those attorneys either are hooked up with the cult we have read about or just plain stupid. If they think that interview helped anyone, they are mistaken. All the ex's in their custody cases have to do is show a judge that interview and they will never get any kind of custody. The old saying 'doth protest to loudly' certainly pertains in this interview and the interview of Lori's mom and sister.
These woman sure do like to look at the men next to them with this stare as they talk lori stared at her female lawyer like that batting her eyes lol. Melanie does that to.
You are very observant. You have to understand the cult. They are putting on a display. I know I used to be apart of the cult til I escaped at 15. The outside world is shown this, but inside the cult it is 💯 different. The cult is a total masaginistic society, ran by a bunch of sadistic, masaginistic, narcissistic, pedophilic MEN. The wives like lori, and Melinie are mind-controlled to be the willing scapegoat. They will throw themselves under 10 buses, after they throw their children first. They will, lie lie lie even have special handbooks how to do it. The whole world is being manipulated by the cult. They are pushing the narritve for everyone to look at LDS and Mormons. They have thousands of members all over the world that will do what is told if them, no matter what.so it's easy to place trolls in all these rooms. They will try to discredit this comment because I present factual evidence and these idiots are following it to the letter. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_pehwx1gAnw.html Start at 8 min mark. The doomsday cult is none other than the JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES. That's the only doomsday cult that teaches the 144000 are going to heaven and rule as gods bs. That "light v dark "bs .... All Jehovahs witnesses. Watch the link and you will understand this case, her attorneys actions.... every thing. Buckle up it's one deep rabbit hole.
Both Melanie and Lori both accuse their ex-husbands of infidelity, yet they both were the ones cheating on their then husbands. And Kay was not harassing Lori, she was begging Lori to talk to JJ. Kay and the Rexburg police had caught Lori in a lie and that was the catalyst that started the investigation...how hard is it to materialize your own kids?
Who lives next door to their aunt and doesn't ask where her kids are??? This woman moved to live near her aunt so they are abviously close....liar liar pants on fire Melanie. Trying to deflect and blame Kay isn't credible at this point.........
She is just reciting the talking points provided by her attorney. She is distancing herself completely from Lori. That’s why her interview sounds so disjointed. It is illogical!
"Kay's causing a lot of trouble." Yeah, KAY'S the evil one asking where the kids are when their own mother knows the whole time they're dead. Melani's playing the same damsel-in-distress card that worked for Lori all this time.
@@malibudolphin3109 I wouldn't say "creepy"...I'd say they are very loyal to family members. Lori is Melanie's Aunt, whom she loves, and will not say anything bad about. When people called Melanie, who would know the 'new' Lori, Melanie just didn't want to believe it and is "confused" a lot. I've heard Colby say Lori was an excellent mom and I do believe him...she probably was until she met Chad Daybell and his Zombie theories. Charles probably w-a-s seeing other women, he married Lori, who had 2 kids and he would have been (and was) her FOURTH husband...yet he didn't bat an eye marrying her. When they 1st got together, I've heard that Charles would do anything for her, he was so much love. Trust me...someone who is that quick to fall in love, will fall out of love, just as quick. Melanie is just trying to defend "family" just like Lori's sister and mother (in the other interview you reference). They also didn't say anything bad (she was a good mother & person, before she completely changed). Lori will not talk to either one now, and sounds like not Melanie either...nobody knows where the kids are but, defending family, they are sure Lori has her reasons and they are safe somewhere. Her mom even tried to get word to Lori (remember, Lori now won't talk to her mom nor sister) to just get a pic of the kids with something that says the current date, just to prove the kids are alive and well..."surprisingly" they are confused why Lori won't do this. Oh Lord...the kids are passed away, sadly, and THAT'S why. Who is Lori protecting the kids from? Nobody.
I can’t find the comments, but I know I can’t be the only one watching this in amazement at how she cannot even answer a single question directly! “When was the last time you saw the kids?” ..... 5 mins later and still no direct answer whatsoever.
ITS.CALL COGNITIVE SKILL IN SPEAKING NO Y@LL THIS WHAT YOU CALL SPOKEPERSON MATERIAL DONT.CRITICIZE LOOK AND LEARN YOU MAY NEED.THIS ONE DAY LEARN TO SPEAK WITHOUT GIVING FULL DISCLOSURE I KNOW WHAT U SAYING BUT USE THIS FOR SOMETHING ELSE EH TUTORIAL OF NOT AHH AHHH AHHH AHHH THIS IS GREAT THIS IS HOW YOU DO NOT LIKE IDIOTS WHO CANT SPEAK
Yup especially how Melanie said she was a wreck without her kids. Lori didn't give two shits about those kids or their whereabouts. What kind of enemies do young children have? That they have to go into hiding + their abusive dad was already dead. They are trying to blame the dad for the kids disappearance but clearly it was Lori. Melanie is trying to make it sound like it's normal not to know where your kids are🤣
@@reesee9669 She sure does but isn't saying to save her ass. If someone was after my nieces or nephews I would want to know everything. So I could destroy who ever wanted to hurt them. Melanie is taking a weird approach to the situation & seems to be concealing things. She just keeps making excuses for Lori's actions & behavior- this is all the interview does. Weird family & those poor kids didn't stand a chance.
@@erikac8612 she's taking the cult approach. I know I used to be apart of the cult til I escaped at 15. The world is being duped by these expert deceivers. But thats ok, the feds are already inside the cult to finally get a hold of a secret child trafficking and pedophile database, these idiots enabled that to happen because their narcissistic behavior will not allow them to STFU. It's crazy how crazy this is going to be.
Nate: When was the last time you saw Tylee and J.J Melanie: So they were packing and the court system, and they were never protected and there's just no evidence that I've seen that Lori would ever hurt her kids.
This is the best. These two stellar parents (sarcasm) dipped out on their own kids! Now they’re foolishly giving this marathon interview! Please keep talking... the detectives are listening and y’all’s going down too✌🏻
She repeats herself and thinks everyone wants to hear her stories. If she was so close to Lori why didn’t she insist on seeing her and the kids? Next door, come on! Blah blah blah!
Just watching this today, May 11, knowing what we know now ... my heart breaks for those innocent people all over again. On some level, MP knew ... this is disgusting...
Ian Pawlowski is ridiculous. At first he was doing the right thing and now he's backpedaling acting like he never said any of that stuff. He gave his ex wife his laptop with a huge amount of very scary info related to the cult and the attempted murders/murders. He got Melani pregnant and married within 2 weeks. He's nuts too! He had a chance to really find those kids and he blew it and blabbed to her blowing his cover.
"They left to Idaho because they were being threatened" BY WHO??? _All_ the "dads" were dead. Tell me, _who_ was supposedly threatening them? Kay and Larry? IF, and that’s a big if, Kay and Larry were saying _anything,_ it was because Charles was dead and Lori had _told Charles_ they she wanted him _and JJ_ to "disappear." She told him she was done with him _and JJ._ Also, the last time Lori even contacted them was to throw a snarky text their way when she figured out she wasn’t getting the _million dollar_ insurance payout. So if Kay and Larry were trying to talk to her about JJ it was because they were _worried_ about him because they thought she was "done with him." Words out of Lori’s own mouth. I can’t believe Melani can sit up there and lie through her teeth like this. She obviously doesn’t care about those kids. _Complete strangers_ are more concerned about Tylee and JJ than she, their own cousin, is. Edit: ok now she’s actually coming out naming Kay Woodcock as the "threat." That’s BS. For the reasons I stated above. And disgusting to lie and call _his grandparents wanting to see him,_ "threats." OF COURSE they wanted to see him. They are his _blood_ relatives and in any interview you can see how much they love JJ and how he is their whole would. _The only reason_ Lori moved away is to _punish_ Kay and Larry because Charles left them the life insurance... _to take care of JJ_ because he knew Lori wouldn’t. (It’s sad that he predicted this and did everything in his power to keep JJ’s needs met, yet it backfired because Lori is selfish, heartless and vindictive.)
I agree... there are a bunch of lies in her statements. It would be easy to discredit if Charles had many women on the side. Let's not forget Lori and Alex reaction after Charles has been assassinated ... I believe in cold blod... because there are suspicious acts that were stated as facts. Lies, Lies, Lies...
You are exactly right!!! I escaped this cult when I was 15. She is an elite cult member. She's wearing a high priestess necklace. That guy is just playing along. He has to. She is helping hide Tylee captive, and knows which cult member is holding her. More than likely Honduras or Peru. JJvunfortunately is dead the cult has no time for autistic children they cannot be mind-controlled or brainwashed
*"The hands: Liars tend to use gestures with their hands after they speak as opposed to during or before a conversation, says Traci Brown, who has participated in a deception training program with members of the FBI and occasionally helps work on investigations. “The mind is doing too many things including making up the story, figuring out if they’re being believed and adding to the story accordingly,” she says. “So normal gesturing that might normally happen just before a statement happens after the statement.” She refrains from answering a question directly, instead, she just talks and talks without giving the answer until the end. "Using words such as, ‘uh,’ ‘like’ and ‘um’: The research conducted at the University of Michigan found “speaking with more vocal fill” to be a common indicator of deception. Glass says that people tend to use these words more when they’re trying to buy time to figure out what they’re going to say next. She also does this: Phrases such as ‘I want to be honest with you,’ ‘honestly’ or ‘let me tell you the truth’: These can be signs someone may be trying a little too hard to convince you of their honesty, according to Glass."*
Melanie is trying to deflect all of this off her because she has a court case of her own to gain custody of her kids. I am sure her attorney told her she needs to start speaking to the media. Other sites have published her messages to Brandon regarding leaving the kids with him and now a change of heart and she wants them back and what she is saying doesn’t match up with her messages to Brandon. Ian clearly didn’t know what he was getting into!
Exactly. PR and damage control is all this blah,blah,blah is. Spin for her own case. She's still defending Lori, but it shouldn't be long before all parties in this turn to every man for themselves mode.
Ian married her in a rush ceremony without ever having met her kids. no good reason offered. maybe he didnt know what he was getting himself into and has other major "issues". Or maybe their's isn't just a "chance meeting" on a mainstream dating app. knowing what we know now about Julie Rowe/Chad/Lori and their beliefs? What a coincidence --all these fast marriages?
Help me understand. You're in a new town and missing your kids. A town that your aunt suggested you come check out because she knew you missed your kids when it wasn't your time to have them so she urged to come and see new things. Cool. That's a good aunt. BUT, you seek comfort in your kidless uncle instead of your aunt that you adore, who lives right next door, who happens to have two kids that you could spend time with since you're missing your own. And you didn't want to ask questions, you were just there to support her, when she's the one who urged you up there because of your needs and you missing your own kids. Couldn't she have at least been the one to keep you company since her kids were in college or 24/7 therapy that I've never heard of? That's your final answer? It doesn't matter how well you've rehearsed that lie, it still smells like total bullshit.
I don't believe anything she says. But, her husband looks innocent as her ex. She is doing this just to get her children which, I think it would be maybe another ''Lori Vallow'' thing. Her ex was shot at and everyone knows who did that. Brother and Uncle just don't do it for kicks. There was more to it and she knows too. As long as she will be on the news from now, I WON'T WATCH THIS CHANNEL.
I feel same about her being an evil liar, but I think it’s faaaaarr better to let her run her mouth and talk as much as possible so it can be used against her later! I love that these interviews are happening. The more info to hang her the better
Unless Ian knows exactly where the kids are & that they are ok (which he claims he doesn't know), how can he say that he thinks things all got blown out of proportion???!
She knows more. What aunt that has children of her own would not at this point stop and be concerned and afraid for her niece and nephew? Even with her own divorce and custody you would care. You would also ask flat out whare is Tyle and JJ? She's holding back on details as well as covering either for her own knowledge or for her aunt Lory. Ian needs to wake up and have a plan. I pray the kids are as Melanie keeps implying just hidden away. It would truly be a miracle because the length of time its been since anyone has physically seen either of the two kids. It hurts my heart that not one person will come forward to bring those kids forward to ease the grandparents mind's and pain.
Yeah “hidden away” lol smh. In a polar opposite universe, even if this was all over a nasty custody battle. You think it’s right, necessary, or appropriate to “hide” a 17 year old girl that’ll be on her own in less than a year anyway? Yeah nice try. Lmao they’re all so full of shit
No, that won't happen. He's already imbibed too much kool aid. Melani has him just where she wants him. These women can't live or survive a week without a man.
My dream scenario is that Ian actually been asked by FBI to be theres informant. Cant help it, but like you said, listens very carefully. Is it an act? Dont see love.
Anytime u ask a simple question and someone like this takes 3 minutes to answer every simple question. That means they feel they have to try to explain the long lie they are telling instead of just simply answering the question.
Ian just kicks back and lets her work her magic. "Mels got this. She's been trained by the very best of the best".💁🏼♂️ Her agenda is obvious. All so very calculated. Disgusting.
Omigosh, watching this after the kid's bodies were found. Trying to keep track of all the lies. I hope they nail this psycho and fast. God forbid MP is ever allowed to be around young children. Sick, sick, sick!
It's so interesting that in the Pawlowski's divorce stories, their roles in the failed marriages are never mentioned. It was always the other spouse who created ALL the issues that made the marriage fail. Also interesting is that we keep hearing that Kay and Larry were threating Lori. So much that she had to hide them. But I have not heard what those threats were that made Lori supposedly so scared. Again, interesting that they never asked Lori, why are they threating you and what specifically are the threats, Lori? Maybe Kay was upset that the man Melani has tried to portray here as a wonderful, kind and understanding man, her uncle Alex, was a cold-blooded murderer that killed her brother Charles? That we now know had a hand in killing JJ and Tylee. Melani and Ian for that matter for his complicity, should be locked the hell up. Bat shit crazy the whole lot! Melani's testimony in the Lori and Chads upcoming rial, should be very very interesting.
Well Melanie, how does it feel (now) to be 100% wrong in all you thought you knew?? Also, If you reversed Chad’s light/dark rating on everyone, it would have been accurate. All the “light” were dark, & the dark ones were light. Lastly, Melanie was the only one who knew where Brandon would be when he got shot. And she would have gotten the insurance payout like Chad & Lori both attempted. Ponder that…
Its funny how she calls alex Cox her best friend at the start of part 1 interviews, at the end of that interview she says that she never connected with Alex Cox because she didn't get his jokes now and this part 2 interview she's claiming that she spent most of her time with Alex Cox. So what is it, did you guys not connect or was he your best friend? And she wonders why people have a hard time believing her. Its hard to find sympathy for her situation not having your children around when her niece and nephew haven't been seen for months when she was face to face speaking with their mother but can't in any way provide any type of clue as to where they could be
You took the words right out of my mouth. THAT'S the only thing I took away from watching part one and it stuck in my head all through this interview (part two) And now states that she lived next door to him (and lori,) How could she not know anything? A lot of half truths and misdirection...
She was talking of not connecting with Alex when she was a teenager, so she was talking about the distant past. The other videos are talking about more recently. Teenagers often don't connect with adults until they become adults. But she is a total lier and manipulator.
@@secondact7151 if you start from part 1 she said she didn't communicate with any Cox relative between the ages of 9 and 15 while she was living with her father....
@@warbunny365 Even in part 1 - the storyline does not add up- At age 6 (unjustly taken according to story), he dad takes her, but yet within that interview she said she stayed with Janis during the same timeline, but at age 9 she is with dad & stepmom when Lori calls to report her mom passing. ( I always read comments before I watch a video- now I gotta see this one)
Her ex-husband, Brandon, didn't take the kids away. She tried to manipulate him, Then Alex tried to kill him and he went into hiding with the kids to protect their lives. And then she tried to manipulate the cops. She never showed up for her custody hearing and he got temporary sole custody. 1. They went to mediation and had a signed (by them only) mediated agreement, 50/50 custody. Court date set for mid. Dec., 2019 for court approval. 2. She announces to Brandon she's moving to Boise, Idaho (yes, Boise) to get a fresh start, and she'll move either with or without the kids. He's blindsided and says they need her, etc. She tells him she's moving. He says he'll figure it out. So first she tried to leverage him into giving her he kids. He didn't. 3. Early Oct. 2019 he's shot at while he's got the kids (after he dropped them at school and came home from working out.) He's been there only since Sept. 23rd. He promptly moves out with the kids and goes into hiding with the help of family and friends. Charles Vallow was shot by Alex in July, 2019 and it was deemed self-defense due to Lori, Alex and Tylee's story to police. He's aware JJ and Tylee are missing but this hasn't hit the news yet. 4 End of October, 2019 She moves to Rexburg, ID with Lori and Alex and in the same complex. 5. Mid November, 2019 She has Alex drive her to Brandon's parents where the kids are to get the kids with her not finalized mediation agreement. She gets cited the first day as being unwelcome and as a trespasser. She asks for a well-being check on her kids which the cops do. 6. Day 2 she comes back and goes into the garage. Brandon's parents call the cops. Bodycam is public info, google it. She tells cops she has court order. They look at it. they say you were trespassed yesterday and you came back. She keeps lying and redirecting. Shows them the paperwork. one cop says this isn't a court order, do you have a court order? She says yes and leads them to her van a few doors down where Alex is waiting in the driver's seat. No court order mentioned. Then she gets increased on a charge of domestic violence and must be arrested. Which is what the law provides since it's an escalation. That was Melani's escalation to try to get her kids with her. 7. The playbook Lori taught her from (that worked with Joe Ryan, lying in court, making false charges, acting like the demure helpless female victim) didn't work. 8. Tammy Daybell exhumed early Dec. 9. Alex dies the next day. 10. Melanie conveniently does a no-show to her custody hearing previously set mid-December rather than show up and risk losing custody. There's a default order (no findings) giving Brandon temporary sole custody since it was just set for approving their mediation agreement and she didn't show to answer for what's been going on. 11. Melanie may be misguided and yet she is also still a liar.
Nate you are amazing 👍👍👍Melanie seems to be trying to save face for Lori and the rest of the cox family...however I DO NOT believe a word!! Completely unrealistic what she's saying. She also deflects a LOT!!
You can tell from this interview and body cam footage she’s an apprentice of the manipulation tactics Lori uses. She’s just worse at them. She should be facing prison time too.
