Referred to as the "Doomsday Mother," Lori Vallow certainly surrounded herself with doom. This moody, brooding Cancer enchanted everyone around her, including her own brother? Not only does every man she meets seem to fall in love with her, she's also to convert many of them to the LDS church. Her manipulation tactics allow her to sit back and watch everyone else do her dirty work for her. When two of her kids mysteriously disappear, is she the one who reports them missing? Of course not! Lori does what everyone in her family seems to do in times of conflict, flee to Hawaii. These children aren't the first two people in Lori's life to mysteriously disappear or die under Lori or her brother Alex's watch, nor are they the last. She was finally caught in her home away from home -talk about trouble in paradise- in early 2020, as a nice little prequel to the pandemic. Her sign may be represented by a crab, but this woman is a spider the way she spins her webs of lies and traps her unsuspecting victims.
