The dead children of doomsday-obsessed mom Lori Vallow appeared to have been “tortured” — with one found wrapped in plastic while the other was dismembered and burned, according to reports and records.

The second body was then found next to a fire pit that had also been used as a pet cemetery, the documents show, where bodies of cats and dogs were also found.

The crime scene at Chad Daybell’s residence in Salem, IdahoAPOn Thursday, the Ada County Coroner’s office announced additional testing is underway for the kids’ bodies and the results will take “several weeks to return,” East Idaho News reported.
Ada County Coroner Dotti Owens said in a news release she signed an agreement with Fremont County Coroner Brenda Dye to complete the pathology services in the case while Fremont County will foot the bill, the outlet reported. It’s not immediately clear why the remains were transferred to another county.
Both Lori Vallow and Daybell are behind bars. The pair fled to Hawaii after refusing to cooperate with authorities searching for Vallow’s children.
