FOX 10 investigative reporter Justin Lum spoke with Andrew Craft about what happened in court, including testimony from Vallow's sister Summer Shiflet. The court was played a conversation between Vallow and Shiflet, on June 24, 2020, two weeks after Idaho authorities and the FBI found the remains of JJ and Tylee on the property of Chad Daybell. Summer: “I think you were dancing on the beach, having a great time! Getting married! You took pictures and your kids don't deserve burials but you need to get wedding pictures? You don't think that's upsetting? And nobody knows except you and the Lord?" Lori: “Yeah ask Him." Summer: “I have and guess what?! I don't have one scripture that says it's okay to have kids thrown away like garbage in the ground. And that that's okay. There is nothing in the scriptures that is godly about hurting a child! Nothing! They deserve a proper burial with family that loves them at the least!” More LiveNOW from FOX streaming video
