Lori Vallow Daybell was recently found guilty in a trial in Arizona, an interesting discussion happened earlier this week at one of JFAC’s spring meeting stops in Idaho Falls and the Idaho National Laboratory is currently building its first new nuclear reactor in 50 years.

It’s Friday, which means it's time for our Reporter Roundtable when Idaho Matters gets you up to date on all the news that made headlines this past week.

Our journalist panel today:

Clark Corbin with the Idaho Capital Sun
