Daybell Case Lexicon of Terms

Overview

The Lori Vallow / Chad Daybell case is unique in that it introduces a host of vocabulary terms that normal, well-adjusted people don't use regularly, like 'zombie', 'casting', 'probation', '7 gatherers', etc. So to feed two birds with one scone, I created keyword groupings. If you search for one of the keywords included in the list below, you will get returns for all of the keywords in that group.

I broke these lists into two categories: 'One-to-Many' and 'Many-to-Many' matches.

Some false matches are inevitable because I chose to lowercase all searches before running the query. For example, references to 'may' (as in "You may find this app useful") will be returned with the other months.

Keyword Groupings

One-to-Many Matches

If you search for the label for any one of these lists (e.g., 'all months', 'group members', etc and activate the 'Include related keywords' toggle, it will be like searching for all the keywords/phrases in that list.

All Months

Note: If you search for any one of these abbreviations (e.g., 'jan.') with the 'Include related keywords' toggle activated, it will include just the variations for that particular month. Just keep in mind 'may' will also match the word and not just the month. It's a small price to pay for having a search engine that's not case sensitive.

Group Members

Note: I didn't include Lori, Chad, and Alex on this list because it returned every article from all the trials, which minimized its usefulness. This list is more to be able to see these other these friends and family members supported these criminals through acts of omission and commission—sometimes unintentionally but most of the time quite intentionally.

Many-to-Many Matches

If you search for any of the keywords in these lists and activate the 'Include related keywords' toggle, it will be like searching for all the keywords/phrases in that list. I included the demonic and prior probation names this group assigned to people for thoroughness. I mean no disrespect to victims in doing this. So a search for 'tylee' will return matches for 'ty' and 'hillary' (her dark spirit name), and a search for 'tammy' will return matches for 'tamara' and 'viola' (her dark spirit name) as well.
