Witness Recalls Final Night with Charles Vallow
One of the more dramatic exchanges came during testimony from Nancy Jo Hancock, who met Charles through a dating app just before his death.
Hancock revealed that Charles told her he had changed the beneficiary of his life insurance policy to his sister, Kay Woodcock, on July 10, 2019—the day before his death.
Cross-examined by Lori Vallow Daybell herself, Hancock was unflinching:
“Are you trying to tell me and this jury that you went on one date with my husband, and he told you all the details of our lives?” Lori asked.
“I’m telling you the truth, and that’s what I know,” Hancock replied.
“So, you spent your whole date getting to know each other and talking about me?” Vallow Daybell pressed.
“Don’t flatter yourself. No, we did not spend the whole time talking about you,” Hancock answered.
