When Your Client Believes in Zombies: The Chad Daybell Defense Playbook
Apr 10, 03:00 PM
In a captivating episode of 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski,' the daunting task of jury selection in Chad Daybell's trial takes center stage, as discussed by Attorney Eric Faddis. As Daybell's trial unfolds, finding impartial jurors emerges as a Herculean task, especially considering the case's high-profile nature and its intricate web of apocalyptic beliefs. Faddis highlights the strategic pursuit of jurors who are less likely to have predetermined judgments, emphasizing the search for individuals without children, those holding unconventional beliefs, or simply the uninformed. The conversation ventures into the realms of social media scrutiny, expert witness preparation, and the looming question of whether Daybell should take the stand. With Daybell's narrative potentially pivoting on the influence of Lori Vallow Daybell and the absence of the now-deceased Alex Cox, the defense might aim to sculpt a story that minimizes his culpability. This episode peels back the layers of legal strategy, expert witness dynamics, and the ethical quandaries faced in one of the most bizarre trials of the century.
