8/13/22 Update: The joint motions hearing on Tuesday, 8/16/22 has been vacated. The lawyers reached an agreement regarding consumptive DNA testing. But Lori will still be in court on Tuesday, 8/16/22 as her defense argues several motions.
8/16/22 Update: Jim Archibald & John Thomas, Vallow’s defense attorneys, believe two of the counts listed in the indictment are complicated because they each include two separate allegations. Counts one & three, filed on May 25, 2021, are each labeled, “Conspiracy to commit first-degree murder & grand theft by deception.” They’re asking District Judge Steven Boyce to reconvene the grand jury to deliberate & amend the indictment so both alleged crimes are tried as their own count. Prosecutors Lindsey Blake & Rob Wood say the motion has no basis because the law allows for an allegation in a single count of a conspiracy to commit multiple crimes, according to court documents filed Wednesday. Blake & Wood object to reconvening the grand jury & call the motion “untimely,” saying it should have been filed by May 27, the deadline to file such motions. The judge stated that he will take the motions into consideration & render a written decision on the arguments presented today.
8/12/22: Order: The Court received 3 motions from proposed intervenor & movant, Lori Hellis appearing pro se: 1) Motion to intervene; 2) Motion for injunctive relief & 3) Motion to unseal all documents & transcripts or recordings of past hearings. On Aug. 6, 2021, this Court entered a public order ("Order") in this case directing that "all subsequent pleadings" in the case be filed "captioning only that individual Defendant's respective case # & name." While the Order is expressly directed to "Counsel", the intention of the Court extends to "any person" attempting to file pleadings in either case contemplated in the Order, in order to maintain a consistent orderly administration of the cases. The Court has reviewed Hellis' motion & finds it does not comply with the Order. Hellis can refile again. For those reasons, Motion to intervene is denied. Motion for injunctive relief is denied & the Motion to Unseal is denied without prejudice. Pretrial hearing on 11/9/22.
8/30/22: Vallow's defense filed Motion to Clarify media in the courtroom. Want cameras banned from hearings. Next Motions hearing on 9/15/22 @ 9am for both. 9/8/22 Update: Judge Steven Boyce has denied a request from Vallow’s defense team to reconvene a grand jury for the purpose of clarifying language in her criminal indictment.
*Madison County: Pretrial conference hearing on 8/17/21 & trial set to begin on 8/30/21 were both vacated.

7/18/22: Prosecutors in murder cases are asking a judge to allow comprehensive DNA testing on several pieces of evidence. In a motion filed Monday, Fremont County Prosecuting Attorney Lindsey Blake & Madison County Prosecuting Attorney Rob Wood asked Judge Steven Boyce to allow them to test the following items: Hairs on duct tape inside a body bag used to transport the remains of JJ, ridge detail (fingerprints) on the adhesive side of tape associated with JJ’s body, small dark spots on the handles of a shovel & pickax recovered from a garage/barn, swabs of tape areas & swabs from fingernails from JJ’s right hand obtained during his autopsy. Prosecutors are asking for consumptive testing on the items, which means testing can only be done one time as this type of testing would obliterate the evidence. In the motion filed this week, prosecutors note they have not had consumptive testing done on any materials up to this point but ask Boyce to now allow it. Defense attorneys often have someone observe or videotape consumptive testing as it can only be done once. And asked for a hearing date.
