Lori Hellis

I understood that Tylee had been sort of Lori's mini-me. Tylee and Lori had a close mother-daughter relationship until Tylee hit her teenage years. And I think it was very difficult for Lori to allow Tylee to become her own person. And Tylee became sort of a outspoken kind of teenager.

And I think that was really hard for Lori to stomach because the little mini me that she had been for so long suddenly was her own person. I think that was very difficult. But, you know, the people who knew Tylee, her friends, her girlfriends, had such a different picture of her. She was such a dynamic person. She loved to sing. She was very outgoing. She was fun.

Suddenly Tylee was possessed by a demon because she was hard to handle as a teenager and she didn't like Chad and she didn't like what her mom was doing. So then suddenly she was taken over by a demon named Hillary.

There's no question that JJ was a challenging kid. I mean, he had some disabilities. But anybody who knew him also said that he was the most loving, joyful kind of a kid. There's no question raising him was a challenge. But everybody who knew Lori said she was really good at it. I think she finally just... The mask cracked.

And when she came to believe that she had this higher mission, then that was justification for her to just say, I'm done with him.

Chad had this sense of wanting to be important. He was grandiose. He was special. And Lori also had some of those needs as well. And so he sort of fed into her needs. Now, there is no question that Lori has religious delusions and that she still, to this day, right now, believes with her whole being those religious delusions.

I don't think there's any one particular thing that you can say, oh, this is the thing that convinces me that they believe fully. But certainly Lori's elocution at her sentencing, it's very clear on her side that she believed. I think some of the most telling evidence that came out at Chad's trial were the prison phone calls that he had with her where he's talking about, oh, I texted Ray today.

Well, that was what they called Alex Cox. And Alex Cox was dead. And so reading between the lines, you realize he's talking to her about he's communicating with Alex Cox in heaven.

So a person can be fully functional and still be absolutely rooted in their delusion. And that's what's going on with Lori. She absolutely believes Chad is a prophet. She is exalted. They have been called to lead the 144,000. She absolutely believes that whatever this is, is a trial that was sent by God, that the end days are coming.

And when the end day is coming, she's going to, you know, like the Apostle Paul says, the walls of the prison are going to fall down and she's going to be released.
