    Her ENTIRE speech of fiction was infuriating to listen to. However, I felt that the most disturbing part was when she said that Tammy was her friend and that they visited with each other regularly. Tammy had never even met Lori. Lori committed adultery with Tammy’s husband, conspired to kill Tammy while she was still married to Chad, and married Chad just two weeks after Tammy was killed. Tammy was everything that Lori was not; a great wife, mother, friend, daughter, sister, etc. etc. etc. Lori could NEVER be what Tammy was in eternal lives!!! I felt for Tammy’s family when Lori was talking about her! I hope that Lori has a miserable existence for the rest of her life!!!
  • @velvetbees
    She is revolting. Her nutty statement was a bizarre FU to the world for daring to hold her accountable.
  • @wpeters4361
    A truly evil woman. I can't even begin to imagine the horror of her children's last moments of life...knowing their own mother was killing them.
  • @CrimeOfTheTrueKind
    The look on the judge's face the entire time that she was talking says it all... He was horrified, baffled, and im sure was blown away by her statement!
  • @IndySpirit
    The judge's ruling in this case was spot on and worth watching. He really called her out for her self-serving, maniacal statement.
  • @autumn.melody1715
    She’s lying. She was sane enough to run away for a Hawaiian vacation. She’s so self absorbed and didn’t care about her own kids.
  • @Bess9779
    I love how Dr Grande can say the funniest things with a completely straight face.

    Glad you've covered this. Hyperreligiosity with Narcissistic features is a form of personality disorder and not delusional Schizophrenia. Lori committed these killings not because she was having fits of active hallucinatory delusion but to get what she wanted in her life. She knew what she did were morally and legally wrong - the great length she went to and the manipulations she took up just shows the knowledge of her guilt, the guilt that's pushed aside none the less. So many YouTubers have no clue about the difference between Schizophrenic delusions and self-justifications and lie that a grandiose Narcissist weaves to delude herself. Lori is just in denial of her feelings of entitlement that compelled her to eliminate obstacles in order to achieve the lifestyle she wanted, because she knows deep inside that her true motivations are less than wholesome, let alone spiritual. BTW now that her sister Summer seems to have fallen back to the default state that this family( Summer and Lori's mum) loves to be in, blaming what Lori has been found guilty of, to the 'illness', now that it is named by the judge. I reckon the mum's absence throughout this court case was a result of her embarrassment, rather than her feeling of crushing guilt. Typical of this Narcissistic family.
  • @chrissiebabe234
    Samantha, the sister of Tanmy allegedly commented that hilarious speech as follows: ‚Don’t know, who visited her, but it was certainly not my sister.‘
  • @yarnpower
    Lori took being a narcissist to a whole new level bu claiming to be a 'chosen one'. She made excuses for all those murders that were actually done to benefit her and Chad financially. Killing their spouses was bad enough but killing those two children is horrific on a whole other level. It is our base instinct to protect children, especially our own. Her and Chad are truly monsters.
  • I would add: 1-She now faces trial in AZ for conspiracy, in CV’s murder. 2- CV was threatening to tell Chad’s wife when he was killed. 3- She SECRETLY moved to Idaho. 4- Lori’s sister says she never heard anything about death during Tylee’s birth.
  • @user-sv3rh6tr4r
    Well done! “Heavenly child labor laws,” best quote. I completely agree with your assessment, she had to justify her actions to live with herself, I have never heard a more self centered person explain their actions, the scary part is that she doesn’t sound totally crazy, making her even more dangerous. Happy to see the sentence that was imposed.
  • @ea8269
    Lori and Chad are both manipulative monsters.
  • @cynthiamurphy3669
    I don't think she should have even been allowed to read a statement that like out loud in court. If you can't say you're sorry, forget it. Nobody cares what else you may have to say.
  • It’s actually pretty terrifying to think that someone could believe they are a deity and then carry out horrendous crimes against their loved ones, feeling completely justified. It’s scarier than any horror movie I’ve ever seen.
  • @a.b.d.3974
    what really makes me angry is that little JJ fought for his life they didn't have the decency to put him to sleep before they murdered him. I can't even imagine how scared and confused he must have been 😡
  • You deserve all the likes for keeping a straight face while explaining her beliefs
  • @Big_Tex
    I’m gonna go ahead and diagnose this woman — she’s crazy.
  • @lorri763
    I've been following this case since Jan 2020. I strongly believe Lori is not delusional but rather very good at spinning extravagant tales.
  • Your analysis is more than informative. It was the simple most bang on description of Lori Vallow I've ever heard. A lot of people in the true crime world don't quite know if she was her idea, or Chad's, or both. I love how you said that he "inspired several delusions in Lori". That is exactly what happened. I think they met and their personalities basically resonated so much that they added to the amplitude of each other (already massive in ego) to become a horrible storm.
