An Idaho man and woman are being sought for questioning after the man's previous wife, identified as Tammy Daybell, was found dead and weeks earlier his two stepchildren were reported missing.
Daybell was found dead in her Fremont County home on October 19, according to a release from the Rexburg Police Department. Authorities initially thought her death was natural, but have since deemed her death suspicious and exhumed her remains on December 11.
Investigators are now looking to question her husband, Chad Daybell, who police say married another woman, Lori Vallow, weeks after the initial death. Police are also looking to question Vallow.
Fremont County Sheriff’s Office detectives along with Rexburg Police Department officers and the FBI served a search warrant on the Chad Daybell residence in Fremont County Friday.
