Kouri Richins was convicted of murdering her husband Eric. The most shocking part of her sentencing hearing wasn’t the sentence itself — it was the heartbreaking statements from the Richins' children. In this video, Lawyer Lee breaks down the emotional sentencing hearing, including disturbing new allegations that never came in at trial, the competing claims about how the boys became so emotionally separated from their mother, and the judge’s struggle over whether to leave open even the possibility of parole decades from now.
On March 4, 2022, Eric Richins died of a massive fentanyl overdose. His wife, Kouri Richins, later wrote a children’s book about helping her children cope with his death. Then, on March 16, 2026, a jury convicted her of aggravated murder for poisoning him with fentanyl.
