UT v. Kouri Richins | Pretrial Prep - Part 3

Описание: We are preparing for the upcoming trial of Utah v. Kouri Richins, slated to start February 23, 2026, with Jury Selection beginning February 10.

Kouri Richins (36) is accused in the March 4, 2022 death of Eric Richins (39), who was found deceased in the couple’s Utah home after allegedly being given a drink containing a lethal dose of poison. Prosecutors allege the killing was intentional and financially motivated, pointing to life insurance policies, financial distress, and digital evidence gathered during the investigation.

On the night before Eric died, prosecutors allege Kouri prepared him a vodka drink containing fentanyl. Eric went to bed and never woke up. Toxicology later revealed a fatal amount of fentanyl, with no prescription or medical explanation. Investigators say the drug choice was intentional because of its potency, fast action, and potential to mimic accidental death.

In the months after Eric’s death — before any arrest — Kouri publicly presented herself as a grieving widow and authored a children’s book about loss titled Are You With Me?. The book later drew national attention once criminal charges were filed.

Kouri was arrested in May 2023, more than one year after Eric’s death, and charged with aggravated murder along with multiple additional felony counts, including drug- and fraud-related charges. She has pleaded not guilty and remains in custody without bail. The judge has repeatedly denied her release, and her request for a change of venue has also been denied, keeping the case in Summit County.
