In this powerful extended segment of Hidden Killers Live, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels tackle one of the biggest questions in the Daybell case: Did Chad actually commit the murders, or was he just complicit?
The team debates whether Lori Vallow and Alex Cox were the true hands behind the killings while Chad acted as the enabling bystander. They revisit the evidence: cell phone pings, asphyxiation findings from Tammy Daybell’s exhumation, and the suspicious burial of the children on Chad’s property. Could Chad really have been so blind, or was he more deeply involved than the letters suggest?
The discussion then flows into Letter Three, where Chad gives his sanitized account of Tammy’s declining health and eventual death. He describes fainting spells, bloating, dizziness, and her refusal to seek medical care — portraying himself as a concerned husband. The hosts cut through the fiction, pointing out how convenient it is for Chad to frame Tammy’s death as “natural” when the autopsy showed signs of asphyxiation.
With personal insights on menopause, medical neglect, and the frustrations of being gaslit by doctors, the conversation goes deeper than court transcripts — exposing how Chad mixes truth with fiction to rewrite the past.
This segment doesn’t just question Chad’s role in the murders. It shines a light on how abusers and manipulators twist narratives, even after conviction, to avoid accountability.
