Witness Undercuts Doomsday Dad Chad Daybell’s Story of Wife’s Death
Chad Daybell has long insisted that he woke up one morning in 2019 to find his wife of nearly 30 years dead on the floor of their Idaho bedroom. But the Doomsday author’s son allegedly told his friend and former co-worker a different story.
“He said he found her when he got home from work and he didn’t know where his father was,” that friend, Jason MacKay, testified at Daybell’s Idaho murder trial on Thursday. “I don’t remember if he said she was in the bed or next to the bed. She was kind of pale and her lips were blue.”
The revelation calls into question what happened the morning of Oct. 19, 2019, when authorities arrived at Daybell’s home to find his wife, Tammy, wrapped in a sheet on their bed.
