They also did not bind or burn Charles & Tammy within 2 minutes after their deaths, nor did Zulema bind or burn Alex @ the time of his death. So the zombies don't enter bodies during actual deaths but only "spiritual deaths" that Chad & Lori claim to have happened & everyone just have to "believe and have faith" these people experienced a spiritual death which require all this fasting and casting but real death doesn't need all the castings, bindings, burnings, spells, special powers, prayers, and spiritual visitations?
I know, it makes my head explode trying to understand their reasoning.o_O

So much information yesterday, there is so much to this case and we are getting so much each day. I am trying to view this from a few perspectives, and often hear that LVD was basically under a spell by CD, my question, do they have any communication right now? I thought not, for several months they have been separate , and her under psych care, so, would he (if he ever did) have that much power over her now? I mean I don't think she is gonna wake up and say oh my god this really happened, I think she is culpable of a lot of things. but curious ... Just my random scattered, messed up thoughts.
 
So much testimony about medication searches. Sounds like Lori wasn’t giving JJ his prescribed medications … but I am also questioning if any drugs were found in his system. I keep going back to when Alex went to Mexico.
 
Not sure Lori's team has much of a defense for her. Very few witnesses for the defense, very few questions for the other witnesses. The only thing I can see as any defense: 1) she was not there when people died. 2) She changed after meeting Chad. 3) Her religious beliefs changed over time. Is she just going to blame Chad & Alex for brainwashing her?

We do get to follow the money.
I am hoping there are some digital tracking of conversations between c and l regarding HOW Chad could arrange to get the insurance money for Tammy.

Evil = both of them.
Money fraud = Lori.

My first thought about the medication search is the same. She took JJ of medications to the severe detriment of his health. She was turning him into a zombie through a slow painful death..........
