Ret FBI Behavior Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke Breaks Down Week One Of The Lori Vallow Daybell Trial

FBI Unscripted | Real Agents On Real Crime

Week one of the Lori Vallow Daybell trial is in the books — and what a week it was. In this powerful breakdown, Tony Brueski is joined by retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke to unpack the chaotic courtroom scenes, surreal self-representation tactics, and emotionally charged testimony that set the tone for one of the most bizarre murder trials in recent history.
As Vallow plays both defendant and her own attorney, the courtroom becomes a stage for narcissism, misplaced priorities, and deeply personal vendettas. Dreeke offers behavioral insights into Vallow's obsessive questioning, her fixation on irrelevant personal details, and her increasingly combative tone — all while the prosecution builds a compelling case tying her to the conspiracy to murder her fourth husband, Charles Vallow. The episode also dives into Vallow’s spiritual delusions, alleged “zombie” language, and the looming introduction of her children’s murders into the narrative.
