AFFIDAVIT
The information contained herein is true and correct to the best 0fmy knowledge
and belief.
I am the Lieutenant charged with supervision over the Madison County Detention
Center. Ihave been in this current supervisory role since December of 201 6.
On March 5th, 2020, in response to phone calls I had received from defense
counsel in the above-captioned case, I sent defense counsel the following text
message: “This is LT. Willmore. Just so you have it, the jail number is 208-372-
5002. You can schedule meetings with the Control operator. Feel free to call meas well with any questions.”
On March 20m, 2020, the Detention Center restricted the Detention Center to
Essential Personnel only due to concerns over Covid-l 9 and in response to CDCguidelines for correctional facilities.
On March 25‘“, 2020, Governor Little announced a state-wide stay-at-home order.

AFFHDAVIT
On March 30th, 2020 and March 315', 2020, defense counsel, Mark Means, visited
his client, Lori Vallow, in the Madison County Female Detention Center. Defense
counsel did not notify the Detention Center either time that he was coming. The
Detention Center does not require defense counsel to set an appointment.
However, due to the Covid-19 safety protocols put in place, the Detention Center
had no advanced notice to prepare for an in-person meeting between defense
counsel and their client.
Due to the CDC guidelines and the Governor’s stay-at—home order, the vast
majority 0f all attorney/ch'ent meetings have been telephonic. Pursuant to
Madison County policy and procedures, none 0f these conversations have been
recorded.
On March 30‘“, defense counsel for the defendant came to the Detention Center
and asked to visit his client. He initially met with Corporal Ryan Walker and
asked if he could meet with his client face-to-face. Corporal Walker informed
Mr. Means that he could meet with his client in the public visitor room due to
precautionary measures the Detention Center was taking to prevent the spread of
Covid-l 9 to inmates and Detention Center workers. Corporal Walker also
informed Mr. Means that he would check to see if the phones in the visitor center
could have the recording function turned off.
Corporal Walker contacted Sgt. Mark Backstein, who also works at the Detention
Center, and asked if the recording 0fphone calls in the public visitor center could
be turned off.
Sgt. Backstein called me and inquired about turning off the recording ofphone
conversations in the public visitor center.
I informed Sgt. Backstein that the recording could be turned off, and I then
proceeded to turn the recording off for the period of24 hours.
Corporal Walker informed defense counsel that the recording had been turned off
0n both phones 1n the public visiting center.
Defense counsel then had a conversation with the Defendant 1n the public visitor
center 0n a phone. That call was not recorded.
While that call was not recorded, I have reviewed call logs ofMarch 30‘“ and can
see that the call was made. I have attached a copy of that call log as “Exhibit A” to
this affidavit.
On March 3 1 5‘, defense counsel for the Defendant again came to the Detention
Center and asked t0 meet with his client. On this date, he initially met with
Deputy Pam Hollist and informed her that he had paperwork he needed to have
his client sign. Deputy Hollist took the paperwork from defense counsel in the
lobby and took it to the Defendant in the public visitor center, where the
Defendant signed the paperwork. Deputy Hollist then returned the paperwork to
defense counsel in the lobby. At that time, defense counsel infomed Deputy
Hollist that he needed to speak with his client. Deputy Hollist allowed him to
enter the visitor center to speak with the Defendant on the phone.

AFFIDAVIT
Defense counsel never asked Deputy Hollist to turn off the recording sofiware.
Defense counsel had two phone calls with the Defendant. Both phone calls would
have given the standard Telmate warning that the phone calls were subj ect to
monitoring and recording. It should be noted that the call on March 30”“ would
not have played the warning that the call was subject to monitoring and recording
because that warning is not played when phone calls are not recorded.
At n0 time during those phone calls did defense counsel ask Deputy Hollist, 0r
any other Detention Center personnel, to tum off the recording program as it had
been turned off 0n March 30th.
Defense counsel’s visits on March 30m and March 315‘ are both documented by
jail security footage. Defense counsel can be seen taking pictures inside the
Detention Center on March 3 15‘. The Detention Center rules are posted at the
entrance t0 the visiting room. It is clearly posted that no picture taking is allowed.
The n0 picture taking rule is in place to provide security for the inmates and
workers of the Detention Center.
Defense counsel’s visits are further documented by the Defendant’s “out of cell”
log, which I have attached t0 this affidavit as Exhibit “B.”
The Detention Center was not immediately aware that the phone calls between
defense counsel and the defendant were recorded.
I learned that a March 3 15‘jail phone call was recorded on either March 315‘ or
April 15‘ when I was contacted by Lt. Ron Ball 0f the Rexburg Police Department.
He informed me that as he was listening to jail phone calls he started listening t0 a
call that he thought could be between the defendant and an attorney. He informed
me that once he realized it may be an attomey/client conversation he stopped
listening and called me t0 provide that information.
Once I received that information from Lt. Ball, I reviewed the call logs and found
the two phone calls made on March 315‘. The first call took place at 14:53 and
lasted one minute. The second call took place at 14:55 and lasted 28 minutes. I
immediately found it strange that the calls had been recorded because I had turned
off the recording on March 30th specifically for the same defendant and her
attorney. I also found it strange because I knew her attorney was aware the
recording could be turned off in the visitor center. I called Telmate and informed
them that the 28 minute phone call needed to be removed from our records. I do
not have the ability to delete phone calls. Due t0 what I perceived to be strange
circumstances regarding the recording 0f the calls, I purposefully left the 1 minute
phone call 0n our records for evidence that those phone calls started with the
standard warning that the call was subject t0 monitoring and recording.
Afier I called Telmate, I shut down the recording in the visitor center for a period
0f 365 days to insure that, in the event 0f any attomey/client visit, no other phone
calls would be recorded. Télmate tracks when the recording is turned off in the
visitor center for both phones in the female Visitation center. I have attached those
Page 3 of 4
records to this affidavit as Exhibits “C” and “D”. These logs also shows that the
recording for both phones was turned offon March 30th, 2020.
Further your affiant sayeth naught,
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED this X3 day oprriI, 2020.
