A “doomsday” murder trial that has gripped the nation for the past week may come to an end much more quickly than expected after Lori Vallow Daybell announced plans to rest her case without providing evidence or witnesses.

Convicted killer Lori Vallow, who is serving life sentences for murdering her children and conspiring to kill her husband's former wife, is on trial again and representing herself.

Lori Vallow Daybell's trial in Phoenix ends as both sides rest their cases; she is accused of conspiracy in the murder of her husband.
