UNREDACTED REDDIT EMAIL (The tea is hot this weekend)

For those unfamiliar with the "infamous reddit email"  you can check it out here: https://www.reddit.com/r/LoriVallow/comments/hc6chh/infamous_reddit_email/

It was an anonymous email that was released on the internet very early on in the case. It was shared well before the media or law enforcement had released anything about zombies, portals, or other bizarre Daybell beliefs. It didn't seem believable, and was initially disregarded by many. 

For those following the Daybell case from its origins, the infamous reddit email became a bit of a road map -a place where we would turn as information was released, where we would check off the factual stories and information it included.  The reddit email quickly became a very revealing, eerily factual outline of bizarre events leading to multiple murders. 

It was revealed by insiders that the reddit email stemmed from Melanie Gibb. Her friends had been taking notes--everything she shared with them was put into a document. 

While there have been a few different versions of the email floating around the www, there are some never before heard lines that have been sent to us by a very reliable source.

The source, Anna, accepted an interview with Hidden True Crime, and we will share that early next week. She shares a fascinating inside look, an interview you won't want to miss, and she will share her knowledge about the email.  

Until then, for our Patreon supporters only, we share Anna's unredacted version of the Reddit email.  There are a few lines that are quite telling, and one line in particular was something we'd never heard before. (Do you know which line?) 

 Anna shared these unredacted lines with us before the Chandler evidence dump became public, and the new information from Chandler did what new evidence always does--prove the infamous reddit email to be an impressively factual piece of literature--including the new lines Anna has shared.  

The images are out of order. The main photo is actually the last page in the document,.  Please check the caption by the image to see their order and page number. The lines that were redacted, unseen until now,  are in bold. The original reddit email text is not bolded.

MG and ZP knew exactly what was going on and they should be charged with conspiracy. Disgusting shite everyone.

I am a current member of the Church of Jesus Christ and this happening in a changing room makes way more sense. I have time, so I will listen to the interview, but a changing room or near there makes more sense and completely changes the story.

Sonja Mayfield

I don’t have the time to pull up the Chandler PD Melanie Gibb interview and re-listen to the thing, but when I did listen to it I got the impression that she and Lori were in the changing stalls/area (by where initiatories are done) when Melanie’s head started heating up, Lori got excited and said “it’s happening”, then did the laying on of hands thing. As I listened to the interview, in my minds eye I was picturing that event occurring quietly and discretely in a corner of the changing area or maybe even Lori stepping into a changing stall with Melanie to set her apart. The details of that occurring in a sealing room or the celestial room (with others present who could also feel Melanie’s hot head or the radiating heat) is a very different account.

There is a Reddit post or some statement from Garths wife’s brother that hints at contention in Garths family about the marriage to their daughter. I got the impression that Garth isn’t well liked. I wouldn’t b be at surprised if Garth starts to change toward his father because the only influence he now has comes from his wife’s family. The only variable is how much power Emma has to influence the family.

Gena

We need to clarify whether Chorihor's physical bodies were introduced by Jason Mow in 9/2018 or their spirits were introduced. Maybe everybody is correct here; their spirits met before St. George, but their bodies met (ewwwwwww!) at St. George. Though if they had been married several times before, wouldn't their spirits already be quite well acquainted? Sigh. Looking for internal consistency in Lori's ever-changing fantasy life is frustrating.

This could force a split between Emma/Garth and the younger 3 Daybell siblings. Emma's going to ignore what her eyes tell her and always believe what Chad says. Garth too (though I wonder; wasn't his mother-in-law on the list of possible GJ witnesses?). Maybe this will start to push the younger 3 into Aunt Samantha's camp.

Vixen 9808

IIRC, in her interview, MG said her head felt hot & Lori took that as a sign that she was ready to be ordained into the 144,000. This says it was the other way around. Either way, hot flash or cosplay BS.

Vixen 9808

As Church Lady would say, isn't it Conveeeenient that Melanie Gibb is the source of this information and this whole narrative makes it seem like MG and David Warwick were both "deceived" and not complicit AF in the murders??? I wonder how Chad's younger kids (NOT Emma or Garth) would feel if they knew they had been deemed zombies as well? Or will they choose to believe Chad when he refutes this account?

Vixen 9808

Why don't you believe that Jason Mow introduced Lori and Chad to each other in 9/2018, as stated in the email? Chad wrote fiction. He had already written 25 novels. IMO, the loin fire story does not prove anything other than Chad was smitten.

Erica A. Zwick

I’m pretty confident Lori and Chad will be in prison for life, what I’d like to see in addition to that is anyone who knew of the pending murders be held accountable. I also think the feds need to go after the leaders of these dangerous cults.

RobynB

I wish! But, the investigation seems to have been very thorough. The DA is only going to press charges if it’s likely a winnable case. There must be too much room for reasonable doubt.

Chelsea Jackman

ShaRee Yorgesen, I think Charles actually contacted or attempted to contact Tammy to tell her about the affair, once he himself was sure. So, the proverbial shit was about to hit the fan for Chad and Lori’s liaison. Hopefully, this information is an indication that there is still a chance he’ll also be held accountable for conspiring to kill Charles.

Katie Marlowe

Good question, and that is why I asked, "Who is lying and why?" According to the email, Jason Mow introduced Lori and Chad to each other in 9/2018. The St. George conference was October 26, 2018 - October 27, 2018. Lori asked Chad to judge the “light” and “dark” spirits in her family members, so he already had info on her family.

Erica A. Zwick

That line was my guess about Hidden True Crime's "whoa moment." I, too, had to read it several times. If his kids are in any way receptive to this information, that's gonna be a knife to the heart.

Kassie

I am impressed that these friends did that, but not impressed that they didn't go to police immediately.

Kassie

The Chandler doc dump shows that Chad immediately started doing online searches about Lori's family in the days after meeting her. He probably hit all the sites - white pages, mylife, maybe even some paid sites with background checks. He was obsessed from day one. He probably took what information he found (it's dang easy to find out things about people) and used it to convince her even more about his visionary "gifts." Mediums and psychics do this all the time. I believe St. George was their first meeting based on his loin fire story. Why would he send her that if they both knew full well they had met before St. George?

Kassie

I bet that was definitely a big part of the reason JJ was killed. I hadn’t thought of that before.

Emily Lou

When Melanie asked Chad where the kids were Chad replied “where no one will ever find them”. Buried in his backyard? No one will ever find them? Big time miscalculation, one he will spend the rest of his life in jail for.

Sylvia See

Hot flash?

Roberta S Treacy

The top line that stood out to me was that Tammy ... AND THEIR CHILDREN ... were considered zombies. The second most compelling line to me was more about how it was phrased... "Melanie asked about (Tylee) and Lori said that Tylee had MOVED ON." That is a heck of a cryptic euphemism. I believe Melanie recounted this moment to Shari Dowdle on the secretly recorded phone call when Melanie asked about where Tylee was, Lori gave her a creepy, sort of “wink wink nudge nudge” look that made Melanie think that Tylee was dead. The third interesting tidbit to me is that Julie and Chad used a “seer stone” as well as a pendulum. Interesting since from what I understand, Julie considers herself the female counterpart to Joseph Smith, who also used a seer stone. And lastly, Melanie talks in her recorded interview with Gilbert PD about her head feeling like it was burning after some kind of spiritual blessing or gathering. I want to go back and compare this account of Lori ordaining her with the laying on of hands to be part of the 144K in the temple with the details she described in her interview.

Melanee Evans

Also random comment. The two apostles that he claims to be dark- Ballard and Renlund, is so random, so different in seniority, in speaking style, etc. Bizzare.

Amber Ferdig

Wow really interesting things in there, especially after hearing the "love story" from Chad. Isn't it interesting how more elaborate the sealing story is in this email, vs what Chad wrote to Lori? No Moroni, no Jesus Christ as a witness. Makes me wonder was it Lori or Chad who shared the email version with Melanie? If it was Lori, then are we seeing the same event from different points of view? That would be fascinating if we are... Or is one the private story "love story" and the email version is the "public story" to establish themselves as leaders of 144,000? Why would Melanie even ask Chad about his relationship with two other women? What brings up that conversation? Has it been confirmed before that MG was part of 144,000 ( in their minds)? I know it's been speculated but not seen it in writing. That MG husband and kids went into hiding for Christmas is so sad, and not in one interview did MG ever mention the impact on her family just herself. That his kids were zombies is fascinating. If they were compliant about him marrying Lori, then they didn't need to die? Or did Alex die before he killed Chad's kids?

Amber Ferdig

I was so excited when you said you would share this with us. Thank-you. If there is ever anything I can do for Hidden, let me know. Fly-in Nanny? 🥳 I can’t wait for Anna’s interview. “Tammy and their children have now become zombies.” It’s what perplexed so many people why Chad deemed Lori’s children dark but his never received a rating. So it looks like they might have. Really sad. Tammy was onto Chad and Lori end of September. It makes me wonder if she ever saw Charles email or if she came to this conclusion on her own. Julie Rowe! She was doing the pendulum with Chad and a seer stone. Interesting. I never heard that in any JR groups. And she continues to ruin so many lives and families. I truly believe she was instrumental in Chudly going down this dark path. How Lori is able to ordain Melanie to the 144,000 in the celestial room is, wow. There is always a temple worker in there. Other people felt the heat? So they weren’t alone and in a group. Moroni giving up his sealing to Chad makes sense with everything Dr. John has said. Chad wants to elevate himself above Moroni to look important and good in Lori’s eyes. Mel Fibb knew Tylee was dead and JJ had become a zombie. I would like to think Melanie was trying to save JJ by giving Lori a reason to give him back to Kay. But Mel is so past feeling, so probably not. But makes me wonder. AND CHAD helped Lori change her mind about where JJ went, I’m sure. 😢

ShaRee

SO RIGHT. The very definition of manipulation.

Maraley Santos

Wow. 👀 Going down the rabbit hole now

Lauren and John Matthias

Right. Melanie says she isn’t manipulative (in her police cam footage) but she concocted a plan for Lori to lie to Kay.

Lauren and John Matthias

This was the line that was our whoa moment. We had to read it a few times to make sure we were interpreting it right, but that’s what we gathered too.

Lauren and John Matthias

It was not written by David. We know Melanie loves to talk (Sharie Dowdle is an example). She would tell friends who took notes and complied them in a document. It all stems from what Melanie shared with others.

Lauren and John Matthias

I would love to know more about that! And see his kids reactions once they realize what this meant.

Christina Smith

Tammy and his children were zombies….

Gena

Good point. I bet he did!

Toni Quilico-Kriebel

I always thought David Warwick wrote this. The information seemed like it came from Melanie Gibb.

Tamara Wakeman Sukohl

What I also find interesting is that it was Melanie's idea to lie to Kay. Lori didn't go through with giving JJ to Kay because of her malice regarding the life insurance. It's almost as if she killed JJ to spite Kay. JMO.

Erica A. Zwick

According to the email, Jason Mow introduced Lori and Chad to each other in 9/2018 (email says 9/2019 but that a clearly a typo). Melanie said in her interview with Chandler police that Jason Mow introduced she and Lori to each other. That is the first and only time I have heard Melanie say that. In her interview with Nate Eaton she talks about how she and Lori met, and does not mention Jason Mow. "In October 2018, Gibb was teaching an evening class at her Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints building in Gilbert, Arizona. Lori Vallow was there, and the two did not know each other." "The two became instant friends and spoke about everything from religion to motherhood to everyday life. A few weeks later, they traveled together to St. George, Utah, for a conference where Chad was speaking and selling his books. October 26, 2018 - October 27, 2018. Lori immediately walked up to Chad, and the conversation became personal." 10/30/18 Chad emailed Lori a breakdown of light/dark ratings of her family members.<==== The is what leads me to believe that St. George was not Lori and Chad's first meeting. Who is lying and why?
