Summary

Chad Daybell's former neighbor breaks he silence. The crimes that happened in her quiet Idaho town haunt her years later, along with the secrets she says are permeating through Madison and Fremont County.

Bernadine tells Hidden True Crime host Lauren Matthias what she saw, and why she believes Chad Daybell has more victims. She discusses the suspicious death of neighbor Eldon Clawson and the concerns many share about his unexpected death just days after 7-year-old JJ Vallow was buried in Chad's yard.

For those new to this twisted case about Doomsday beliefs leading to a murderous spree across states, and to better understand future episodes-we recommend our full Beyond the Veil season, but if you don't have that time, we have one episode summarizing everything you need to know.

If there is one episode to listen to that will get you caught up on Chad Daybell and Lori Vallow, it’s our May 2nd, 2023 episode titled: "Beyond the Veil: The prequel -Chad daybell and Lori Vallow - the background story you’ve never heard."

LAUREN MATTHIAS has worked as an anchor and reporter for ABC, NBC, and FOX News in Boise, Idaho and Salt Lake City, Utah. She spent a decade reporting on a diverse range of topics from high profile crimes to Presidential visits. Most recently, she reported for Salt Lake City’s ABC affiliate News4Utah. In 2015 she received the Idaho State Broadcaster’s Association Best Reporter award. She left the reporting world to produce the Hidden True Crime Podcast along with her husband Dr. John Matthias, a forensic psychologist.
