Summary

Chad Daybell receives the death penalty, in the Doomsday murders. An Idaho judge on Saturday sentenced a man to death, two days after he was found guilty of first-degree murder and other charges in the 2019 killings of his first wife and two of his current wife’s children, capping a case that drew scrutiny because of the couple’s “doomsday” religious beliefs. The decision came after jurors took more than a day to deliberate during the special sentencing proceeding in the case against the man, Chad Daybell, 55, in Ada County District Court in Boise, Idaho. Earlier on Saturday, the jury had recommended the death penalty before the judge ordered a short recess to make a final sentencing decision. As the judge, Steven W. Boyce of the Seventh Judicial District, read his decision, Mr. Daybell sat with his hands in his lap, expressionless at the defense table. Defense lawyers did not have any questions when asked by the judge. (NY Times)

0:18.7	Folks, today we're going to talk about the sentencing and the penalty that was
0:24.1	meted out to this man you see on the screen.
0:27.5	Chad Daybell, right now, I guess it's sort of old news since it came down yesterday,
0:32.2	but he receives a sentence of death in the doomsday triple murder case cases actually and one of the
0:43.3	things you notice when you look at this man he always seems to have the same dumb expressionless
0:51.3	face uh did he even understand uh what was going on in the courtroom? Did he even
0:59.2	understand these were his victims, his wife, Tammy Daybell, Joshua, J.J. Valo, Tileen, Tylene Ryan.
1:09.1	I mean, I don't think this guy ever appreciated that or ever, you know, owned up to it,
1:15.6	that he just sat there with that blank expression on his face.
1:22.5	Chad Day Bell, murder trial verdict, conspiracy to to commit first degree murder and grand theft by deception

2:07.7	the death penalty and again we could talk about about how many years it's going to take for that
2:11.9	to actually happen because it seems like in these cases, the appeals are endless.
2:18.8	But if there was ever a man who deserved this and a man that seemingly doesn't have any
2:27.9	moral compass whatsoever, I think he's half evil and half mentally ill.
2:35.8	That's the only way you can describe it, but not mentally ill to the point where he
2:41.4	doesn't or didn't understand his actions, just mentally ill to the point that we shake
