Mommy Doomsday

The disappearance of two of Lori Vallow’s children in Rexburg, Idaho in September 2019 would expose a bizarre trail of death, devotion and Doomsday beliefs that captivated the nation. A haunting podcast from Keith Morrison and Dateline NBC, Mommy Doomsday premieres February 16th. Subscribe now.

Lori Vallow was a wife, mother, and beauty pageant contestant. Then people around her started dying. 

Lori is drawn to an end-times author. They’re both married to other people. That’s about to change.

A deadly shooting at Lori Vallow’s home brings police to her door. And it wasn’t the first time they’d met.

Lori moves to Idaho,  as mysterious and disturbing events continue to unfold around her and Chad.

As the investigation into Lori’s missing children intensifies, she and her new husband leave town. Then another person close to Lori dies unexpectedly.

The six-month search for Lori’s two missing children has followed a trail from snowy Idaho to sunny Kauai and back again. And the question of where the children are is finally answered.

Keith Morrison sat down with producer Shane Bishop to discuss the recent developments and charges in the case that has taken yet another bizarre turn.
