NYC subway death charges - Erdogan election challenge - New Twitter CEO

1. Summary
   A jury in Ada County, Idaho, unanimously found Lori Vallow Daybell guilty of murdering two of her children, seven-year-old JJ Vallow and 16-year-old Tylee Ryan, and of conspiring to murder a romantic rival. The children were last seen alive in September 2019, and their bodies were discovered in June 2020 on property belonging to Chad Daybell, Lori's fifth husband.
   
   Prosecutors said Lori and Chad killed those close to them and benefitted from the insurance and Social Security payments. The pair's unorthodox religious beliefs, including in zombies and an obsession with the apocalypse, were a prominent issue. Prosecutors showed texts in which the two weighed "death percentages" for Tammy Daybell, Chad's then-wife who was found dead a month before Lori and Chad married in late 2019.
   
   Prosecutors called over 60 witnesses. The defense did not call any witnesses and instead tried to get the judge to rule that the prosecution presented insufficient evidence for a jury verdict. Lori is separately charged in Arizona with conspiring to murder her fourth husband.
