Watch live: Lori Vallow, mother of missing Idaho children, to appear in Rexburg court

The mother of two missing Rexburg children is due to make her first appearance in an Idaho courtroom Friday afternoon.

Vallow is charged with two felony counts of desertion and nonsupport of dependent children, as well as misdemeanor charges of resisting or obstructing officers, criminal solicitation to commit a crime, and contempt of court.

She was arrested in Hawaii in February in connection to the disappearance of 7-year-old JJ Vallow and 17-year-old Tylee Ryan. Both children were last seen in September.

Vallow and her new husband, Chad Daybell, have repeatedly refused to tell law enforcement what happened to the children. Daybell is not charged criminally in the case.

The felony charges are punishable by up to 14 years in prison.

Vallow arrived in Idaho Thursday as part of her extradition from Hawaii. After arriving in Boise, Vallow flew to Rexburg on an Idaho State Police-owned plane operated by the Idaho Transportation Department, according to a spokesperson from Idaho Gov. Brad Little's Office. Vallow was booked into the Madison County Jail Thursday evening.

Vallow's defense attorneys have indicated they will ask Judge Faren Eddins to reduce her bond, which is currently set a $5 million. A judge in Hawaii, where Vallow was taken into custody, denied a previous request to drop her bond to $100,000.
