Lori Vallow: was it the crazy Mormon cult where they murdered "zombies" for God?
Actor Reagan Pasternak (HBO's "Sharp Objects," "Being Erica" and "CSI: Las Vegas") joined Doc and Leah to talk about the case.
Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell were vacationing in Hawaii when the question was asked, "Where are your kids?"
The answer, authorities would later find out, was that the kids were in shallow graves on Daybell's property.
As more of the yarn was pulled, other mysterious deaths were linked to Vallow. Her ex-husband, Charles, was shot and killed by her brother, Alex Cox. Cox later died of a "blood clot." In the same city, Brandon Boudreaux was shot and killed in his own driveway from a car registered to Charles.
Vallow went on to marry Daybell after, surprise, surprise, Daybell's wife mysteriously died in her sleep.
Pasternak and the Chalk Team put the timeline together and try to make sense of the Mormon cult behind the murders.
