Kouri Richins goes to trial for the alleged fentanyl murder of her husband Eric in less than a week — and the prosecution's case may not be as airtight as it looked a year ago. The man who was supposed to prove the fentanyl supply chain has recanted. The lead detective faces witness intimidation allegations. Two prosecution experts were excluded. And 26 financial crime charges were severed from the case entirely.Former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis joins True Crime Today to break down what the defense gained before the jury ever sat down. Robert Crozier now says under oath that he sold OxyContin, not fentanyl — and the pills were never recovered or forensically tested. Prosecutors dropped the drug distribution charges after that sworn affidavit. Faddis explains why that gap matters, how Detective O'Driscoll's alleged threats to a witness could undermine the investigation's credibility, and what it means that Judge Mrazik blocked the state's domestic violence expert and limited FBI profiler Molly Amman's role.The defense lost two venue change requests in a county where 85 percent of residents had heard of the case. Jury selection wrapped in two days. Faddis walks through whether that rapid process helps or hurts Kouri — and identifies the single biggest card the defense holds heading into opening statements on February 23rd.#KouriRichins #RichinsTrial #EricRichins #FentanylMurder #TrueCrimeToday #SummitCounty #DefenseStrategy #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Kouri Richins murder trial starts February 23rd — and the defense has been quietly dismantling the prosecution's case for months. A recanting drug source who now says it wasn't fentanyl. A lead detective accused of threatening witnesses. Two excluded prosecution experts. And 26 financial crime charges the judge refused to let the jury hear.Defense attorney and former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the defense's strongest arguments heading into trial. Robert Crozier, the man prosecutors called their key link in the fentanyl supply chain, has signed a sworn affidavit saying he sold OxyContin — not fentanyl. The pills were never recovered. Never tested. Prosecutors dropped the drug distribution charges after that recantation, and for the defense, that's a gap in the murder weapon theory that may never close.Faddis explains how Detective Jeff O'Driscoll's alleged witness intimidation could infect the credibility of the entire investigation, why losing both expert witnesses strips the prosecution's narrative of a calculated killer, and how the severed financial charges give the defense room to keep the jury focused on one question: can the state prove poisoning beyond a reasonable doubt? With rapid jury selection in a media-saturated county and the defense holding cards they've been building for years, Faddis reveals what he believes is their single strongest play heading into opening statements.#KouriRichins #RichinsTrial #EricRichins #FentanylMurder #DefenseStrategy #SummitCountyUtah #RobertCrozier #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Defense attorney Bob Motta joins us for comprehensive legal analysis across three of the biggest cases in true crime right now.The Nancy Guthrie investigation: sixteen days, no arrest, and mounting investigative vulnerabilities. The crime scene was reportedly released early. Evidence that the FBI allegedly wanted processed at Quantico was sent to a private Florida lab. Of sixteen gloves collected, fifteen were reportedly contamination from searchers. Bob explains what the eventual defense will exploit.The Anna Kepner case: sealed federal juvenile proceedings following the 14-year-old's death aboard the Carnival Horizon. Her stepbrother appeared in court three months later and was released to guardian custody. Bob breaks down sealed proceedings, the FBI's decision to keep the case federal, and what custody filings have revealed about potential defense factors—including reported memory loss and medication non-compliance.The Kouri Richins trial: opening statements begin February 23rd. Prosecutors allege she poisoned her husband Eric with fentanyl. But the alleged supplier recanted. No fentanyl was recovered from the home. The judge excluded abuse evidence. Bob analyzes the defense playbook—including how to handle the Google searches, the "Walk the Dog" letter, and the shadow cast by Kouri's mother Lisa Darden.This is the defense perspective across three major cases.#NancyGuthrie #AnnaKepner #KouriRichins #TrueCrimeToday #DefenseAttorney #LegalAnalysis #ThreeCases #MurderTrial #FederalCase #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three major cases. One extended legal breakdown. Defense attorney Bob Motta analyzes the vulnerabilities in each—and what the defense will exploit.The Nancy Guthrie investigation is sixteen days old with no arrest—but the prosecution's case may already be compromised. Crime scene reportedly released early. FBI allegedly wanted evidence processed at Quantico; it was sent to a private Florida lab. Fifteen of sixteen gloves collected were reportedly contamination from the search team. Bob explains how each failure translates into courtroom strategy.The Anna Kepner case is sealed under federal juvenile protection laws. Anna, 14, died aboard the Carnival Horizon—ruled homicide by mechanical asphyxiation. Her stepbrother appeared in federal court three months later and was released to guardian custody. Bob explains what sealed proceedings look like, why the FBI kept the case federal, and what custody proceeding filings have revealed about potential defense strategies.The Kouri Richins trial begins February 23rd. Prosecutors allege she poisoned her husband Eric with fentanyl. But the alleged supplier, Robert Crozier, recanted. No fentanyl was recovered from the home. The judge excluded evidence that Eric was allegedly abusive. Bob analyzes what the defense is working with—including how to handle devastating Google searches and the "Walk the Dog" letter.He also addresses the shadow cast by Kouri's mother Lisa Darden, whose romantic partner died of an oxycodone overdose in 2006 shortly after naming her as beneficiary.This is the comprehensive defense perspective across three major cases.#NancyGuthrie #AnnaKepner #KouriRichins #DefenseAttorney #ThreeCases #LegalStrategy #CrimeSceneEvidence #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This Day in Legal History: Edison Receives Patent on PhonographOn February 19, 1878, Thomas Edison received a patent for one of his most transformative inventions: the phonograph. The device could record and reproduce sound, a breakthrough that stunned the public and reshaped the relationship between technology and creativity. Until that point, copyright law primarily protected written works such as books, maps, and sheet music. The phonograph introduced an entirely new category of expression—recorded sound—that did not fit neatly into existing statutes. Lawmakers and courts were soon confronted with a difficult question: who owns a performance once it is captured on a machine?Early copyright frameworks did not clearly account for performers' rights in recorded works. As the recording industry grew, pressure mounted to recognize both composers and performers as legal stakeholders. Congress responded incrementally, expanding federal copyright protections to cover sound recordings in the twentieth century. These changes reflected a broader shift toward adapting intellectual property law to technological innovation. Courts also played a role by interpreting statutes in ways that acknowledged the economic realities of recorded music. The phonograph's legacy thus extends far beyond its mechanical design. It forced the legal system to confront how creative labor should be valued in an age of reproduction. In doing so, Edison's invention helped lay the foundation for modern intellectual property law governing sound recording and broadcasting.A coalition of environmental and public health organizations has filed suit against the Trump administration over its decision to revoke the scientific “endangerment finding” that underpins federal climate regulations. The case was brought in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and also challenges the Environmental Protection Agency's move to repeal vehicle tailpipe emissions limits. The administration recently announced it would eliminate the 17-year-old finding and end greenhouse gas standards for model years 2012 through 2027.The endangerment finding, first adopted in 2009, concluded that greenhouse gases threaten public health and welfare, triggering regulatory authority under the Clean Air Act. Its repeal would remove requirements for measuring and complying with federal vehicle emissions standards, though immediate effects on stationary sources like power plants remain uncertain. The administration characterized the rollback as a major cost-saving measure, estimating $1.3 trillion in taxpayer savings.By contrast, the Biden administration had previously argued the vehicle standards would produce net consumer benefits, including lower fuel and maintenance costs averaging thousands of dollars over a vehicle's lifetime. The lawsuit marks one of the most significant legal challenges yet to President Trump's broader effort to scale back climate policy, promote fossil fuel development, withdraw from the Paris Agreement, and dismantle clean energy incentives. Transportation and power generation each account for roughly a quarter of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, underscoring the stakes of the regulatory reversal.Environmental groups challenge Trump decision to revoke basis of US climate regulations | ReutersMeta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is scheduled to testify in a Los Angeles jury trial examining whether Instagram harms young users' mental health. The case centers on allegations that Meta designed its platform to keep children engaged despite knowing about potential psychological risks. A California woman who began using Instagram and YouTube as a child claims the platforms contributed to her depression and suicidal thoughts. She is seeking damages, arguing the companies prioritized profit over user well-being.Meta and Google deny the accusations and point to safety features they have implemented. Meta has also cited research suggesting that evidence does not conclusively show social media directly changes children's mental health. Defense attorneys argue the plaintiff's struggles stem from personal and family issues rather than her social media use.The lawsuit is part of a broader wave of litigation in the United States, where families, schools, and states have filed thousands of similar claims against major tech companies. Internationally, governments such as Australia have imposed age-based restrictions, and other countries are considering similar measures. The trial could test the tech industry's longstanding legal protections against liability for user harm. If the plaintiff prevails, the verdict may weaken those defenses and open the door to additional claims. Zuckerberg is expected to face questions about internal company research concerning Instagram's effects on teens.Meta's Zuckerberg faces questioning at youth addiction trial | ReutersA federal judge in San Francisco has ordered a lawyer representing passengers in sexual assault litigation against Uber to pay sanctions for violating a protective order. The ruling requires attorney Bret Stanley to pay $30,000 in legal fees to Uber after he disclosed confidential company information obtained during discovery. The case is part of consolidated litigation accusing Uber of failing to implement adequate safety measures and background checks for drivers, claims the company denies.U.S. Magistrate Judge Lisa Cisneros found that Stanley improperly shared the names of internal Uber policies in unrelated lawsuits and with other plaintiffs' attorneys. Uber argued that he used the confidential material as a roadmap to pursue evidence in other cases. The judge concluded that Stanley acted unreasonably by unilaterally deciding to disclose protected information. However, she rejected Uber's request for more than $168,000 in fees, finding that the company had not demonstrated significant harm from the disclosures.Stanley defended his actions, stating he intended to streamline discovery in related cases and accused Uber of delaying document production nationwide. The judge also indicated Stanley will owe additional fees tied to a separate sanctions request, after finding he searched case documents to assist another lawsuit. The decision comes shortly after a federal jury awarded $8.5 million to a woman who alleged she was sexually assaulted by an Uber driver.Uber wins sanctions against lawyer for sexual assault plaintiffs | Reuters This is a public episode.

Is Europe's defense investment wave real, or is it simply venture capital wrapped in a Ukrainian flag?The debate featured Nicholas Nelson, General Partner at Archangel Ventures, and Sebastian von Ribbentrop, Founding Partner at Join Capital.At stake is more than narrative. It is about capability, returns, sovereignty — and the structural future of European capital markets.Until recently, defense investing in Europe was controversial. Many institutional LPs avoided the sector. ESG mandates were interpreted narrowly. Defense was often softened under the label “dual-use.” Russia's invasion of Ukraine changed the landscape. Defense budgets rose. Political rhetoric shifted. Venture capital began flowing into the sector at unprecedented levels.But the central question remains:Is this a structural capital reallocation — or a short-term momentum trade?The debate crystallizes around one fault line: defense-first vs dual-use.Nicholas argues Europe's hesitation to embrace defense-first investing is both strategically and financially misguided. Defense-only startups, he contends, have historically outperformed. Dual-use often dilutes focus by forcing two distinct go-to-market motions. Real capability requires designing directly for the warfighter — not adapting commercial products later. In his view, dual-use in Europe often functions as a reputational hedge rather than a strategy.Sebastian counters that dual-use is not compromise — it is risk management. Advanced technologies can serve both industrial and defense customers without duplicating entire teams. Diversified revenue reduces concentration risk. Non-dilutive defense contracts can substitute late-stage equity rounds in a region where growth capital remains thin. And Europe's comparative advantage may lie less in building vertically integrated primes — and more in dominating high-precision subsystems.As the conversation escalates, it moves beyond product strategy into a deeper structural issue: scale capital. Even where early-stage defense investment has improved, later-stage funding remains limited. Several leading European defense startups have relied heavily on US or Middle Eastern growth capital.Which raises uncomfortable questions:Can Europe build independent defense champions without foreign growth capital?Will its strongest companies inevitably “pick a flag” as they scale?Is fragmentation across 30+ procurement regimes Europe's structural disadvantage?Without coordination at scale, even strong early-stage ecosystems struggle to produce global champions.What's covered:00:30 Framing the question — structural shift or narrative trade?02:00 From taboo to trend — ESG optics and the Ukraine inflection point04:15 Defense-first vs dual-use — the core strategic divide07:30 The defense-first case — focus, procurement alignment, and capability building11:00 The dual-use counterargument — diversification and risk management14:30 Subsystems vs primes — where Europe's advantage may lie18:00 The growth capital gap — reliance on US and Middle Eastern funding21:00 “Picking a flag” — sovereignty vs scale23:30 Procurement fragmentation — 30+ regimes and scaling friction26:00 Final takeaway — Europe's defense future depends on capital conviction and coordination

NY Giants free agency is where this defense gets rebuilt, and the run defense + corner room can't be ignored.If you listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, a quick 5-star rating and follow us. It helps a ton.We go position-by-position on defensive free agent targets, starting up front with veteran interior options who can actually hold the line next to Dexter Lawrence. Then we hit edge depth (especially if Kayvon Thibodeaux gets moved), linebacker value plays if Micah McFadden walks and the team makes a tough cap call on Bobby Okereke, and press-man corner fits for Dennard Wilson's system. We wrap with safety options tied to the Harbaugh/Wilson tree and what “real” secondary depth should look like.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@2giantgoofballs?sub_confirmation=1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/2giantgoofballs X: https://x.com/2giantgoofballsListener Q&A: If you can only fund one fix, is it run-stopping DT (A) or CB1 (B)?Send a textSupport the show

Today, we're discussing the latest instance of large companies pre-emptively caving to the Trump Administration: Stephen Colbert's blocked interview with Texas Senate candidate James Tallarico. With that backdrop, the House of Representatives passed the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote. Sarah and Beth discuss why this is a conversation about voter suppression disguised as election integrity. Next, we discuss the standoff between Anthropic and the Department of Defense over the use of Claude in military operations and domestic surveillance.

REVIEW FOR LATER TODAYHEADLINE: The Defense of Western Civilization in Europe25 WORD SUMMARY: Steve Yates analyzes the reception of American defense of Western values in Europe, noting a clash with entrenched ideologies at the Munich Conference.GUEST: Steve Yates, The Heritage Foundation1900 BRUSSELS

Gregory Copley of Defense & Foreign Affairs discusses the US deployment of one hundred troops to Nigeria to counter ISIS and Boko Haram, arguing stability requires addressing economic disenfranchisement from damming the River Niger rather than treating symptoms with military advisors.1910 BRUSSELS

1917 EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS. MARS1.Liz Peek discusses the market's current drift and the continued dominance of Artificial Intelligence, arguing AI is not a bubble but a rapidly adopted technology transforming productivity, with companies underhiring as they assess impact and investors needing exposure to this dominant sector.2.Liz Peek critiques California Governor Gavin Newsom, a potential 2028 presidential candidate, citing California'sstruggles with homelessness, illegal immigration, and a wealth tax driving residents away, characterizing him as a catastrophe whose record undermines his viability.3.Judy Dempsey and Thaddeus Mart dismiss Poland's reparation demands from Russia as political jostling, criticize Senator Rubio's visit to Hungary for bolstering Viktor Orbán, and note the Wagner Group's reported return to Europe as destabilizing.4.Judy Dempsey and Thaddeus Mart identify a leadership void in Europe, noting weakness in Macron and Starmer, arguing Europe possesses treaty tools for defense but lacks political will, often blaming Donald Trump rather than addressing internal paralysis.5.Mary Kissel praises Secretary Rubio's Munich speech for emphasizing Western defense but notes he was softer on China than expected, arguing Europe only strengthens military commitments when shamed by the US or facing immediate threats.6.Mary Kissel analyzes the massive US naval deployment near Iran as a credible threat to force regime compliance, dismissing Iran's military drills in the Straits of Hormuz as feeble, suggesting the administration will use force if Tehran refuses dismantlement.7.Jonathan Schanzer of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies analyzes Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan's disingenuous peace efforts, discusses US demands for Iran's total nuclear dismantlement, and highlights strategic confusion regarding the Board of Peace and Hamas supporters' involvement.8.Jonathan Schanzer describes Syria as effectively a Turkish proxy state viewed with danger by the region, discussing President Trump's announcement of five billion dollars from the Board of Peace for Gaza while expressing skepticism about Turkey and Qatar's reconstruction roles.9.Joseph Sternberg of the Wall Street Journal discusses European leaders finally addressing the continent's economic dysfunction compared to the US, noting proposals for a twenty-eighth regime to simplify business laws while politicians like Meloni and Merz face challenges balancing welfare states with growth reforms.10.Joseph Sternberg analyzes Prime Minister Keir Starmer's crash and burn scenario despite a large parliamentary majority, weakened by scandals and party infighting, with survival relying on the lack of compelling alternatives while constant policy reversals leave his government unable to foster growth.11.Alejandro Peña Esclusa details his transition from businessman to Venezuela's first political prisoner as Hugo Chávez, aided by the São Paulo Forum, dismantled democracy, recounting cacerolazo pot-banging protests and how the regime systematically destroyed the economy and persecuted dissenters.12.Alejandro Peña Esclusa discusses the reported capture of Nicolás Maduro, described as a Cuban asset and drug cartel leader, noting Venezuelans are cautiously celebrating with open protests while threats remain from radical groups and international friction regarding the transition.13.Gregory Copley of Defense & Foreign Affairs discusses the US deployment of one hundred troops to Nigeria to counter ISIS and Boko Haram, arguing stability requires addressing economic disenfranchisement from damming the River Niger rather than treating symptoms with military advisors.14.Gregory Copley reports Nigerian President Tinubu advocates for an African credit rating agency to reduce reliance on external assessments from firms like Moody's, reflecting growing desire for statistical independence and better quantification of local economies to attract investment.15.Gregory Copley argues Europe suffers from a leadership vacuum caused by post-WWII dependency on the US and bureaucratic corrosion within the EU, with economic recovery requiring slashing regulations as current welfare models become unsustainable amidst geopolitical threats.16.Gregory Copley notes that despite scandals surrounding Prince Andrew, the Royal Family remains essential glue holding the UK and Commonwealth together, with the King and working royals performing vital diplomatic functions while spares struggle without defined roles.

Who are the 10 most-important players on defense for Ohio State in 2026? Not necessarily the best, but the most important when it comes to the Buckeyes' success.

Trial begins February 23rd. Kouri Richins faces charges she allegedly poisoned her husband Eric with fentanyl. Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down what the defense has to work with—and where the prosecution is exposed.Robert Crozier, the alleged fentanyl supplier, recanted his original statement in October 2025. He now claims he sold OxyContin, not fentanyl, and was "detoxing" during his 2023 interview. The recantation creates a significant credibility issue for the prosecution's drug supply chain narrative.No fentanyl was ever recovered from the Richins home. The evidence linking Kouri to the drug is entirely testimonial. Bob explains how the defense will exploit that gap.The judge excluded evidence that Eric was allegedly abusive and barred a domestic violence expert from testifying. That ruling removes a key defense narrative—but Bob analyzes whether alternative approaches exist.Prosecutors will present Kouri's Google searches: "lethal dose of fentanyl," "luxury prisons for the rich," "permanently delete information from iPhone." Devastating on their face—but Bob explores possible reframings.The "Walk the Dog" letter allegedly found in her jail cell appears to contain witness tampering instructions. The defense says it's fiction from a 65-page manuscript she was writing. The judge partially admitted it.Lisa Darden—Kouri's mother—adds another dimension. Her romantic partner died of an oxycodone overdose in 2006 shortly after naming Darden as beneficiary. A detective wrote it's "possible" she was involved in planning Eric's death. She was present the night he died.Five weeks. 100+ witnesses. 1,000+ exhibits.

The Pentagon's policy chief Elbridge Colby recently called for a “NATO 3.0”, stating that the United States would “continue to provide the U.S. extended nuclear deterrent” to Europe, but when it came to most defense matters, Europe would need to “assume primary responsibility.” Colby is the undersecretary of war for policy and joins FP Live host Ravi Agrawal at the annual Munich Security Conference. And in part two of this podcast, Colby and Agrawal were joined by four other guests: Richard Marles, the deputy prime minister and defense minister of Australia; Judith Collins, the minister of defense of New Zealand; Toshimitsu Motegi, the foreign minister of Japan; and David van Weel, the foreign minister of the Netherlands.  Plus, One Thing from Ravi on U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio's speech at the Munich Security Conference.  Listen to Munich Moments on Apple or Spotify.

No arrest has been made in the Nancy Guthrie disappearance—but defense attorney Bob Motta says the prosecution's case may already be damaged.The Pima County Sheriff's Office reportedly released the crime scene early. Journalists photographed what appeared to be blood droplets on the porch before it was re-secured. Evidence that the FBI allegedly wanted processed at Quantico was sent to a private Florida lab instead. And of the sixteen gloves collected near the home, fifteen were reportedly contamination from the search team itself.These aren't minor procedural issues. They're the foundation of a defense strategy that could create reasonable doubt before opening statements conclude.Bob Motta walks us through how he would attack this case from the defense table. The jurisdictional fight over evidence handling. The contaminated evidence field. The early crime scene release. Each vulnerability represents a line of attack that any competent defense attorney will exploit.We also examine the Derrick Callella situation—charged with transmitting fake ransom demands after allegedly "trying to see if the family would respond." The Friday SWAT operation that detained four people, including a confirmed person of interest, only to release everyone by Saturday morning. And the heartbreaking medical reality that 84-year-old Nancy reportedly needs daily heart medication she hasn't had for over two weeks.Inside sources are reportedly telling media this looks like a burglary gone wrong rather than planned kidnapping. That theory changes everything about charging decisions and legal exposure.When an arrest finally comes, this interview will be essential viewing.#NancyGuthrie #GuthrieCase #DefenseStrategy #CrimeSceneErrors #PimaCountySheriff #FBIQuantico #KidnappingCase #TrueCrimeAnalysis #LegalBreakdown #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Kouri Richins goes to trial February 23rd on charges she allegedly poisoned her husband Eric with fentanyl. The prosecution has over 100 witnesses and 1,000 exhibits. But defense attorney Bob Motta says this case has vulnerabilities that could create reasonable doubt.Robert Crozier—the man prosecutors say supplied fentanyl to Kouri's housekeeper—recanted in October 2025. He now says he sold OxyContin, not fentanyl, and was "detoxing" during his original statement. The judge still denied bail, but that recantation matters at trial.No fentanyl was ever recovered from the Richins home. The only physical evidence is what was in Eric's body. Everything linking Kouri to the drug is testimony—and the defense will attack that testimony's credibility.The judge excluded evidence that Eric was allegedly abusive and barred a domestic violence expert from testifying. Bob analyzes what that exclusion costs the defense and whether alternative strategies exist.Prosecutors will present Kouri's Google searches after Eric's death: "lethal dose of fentanyl," "luxury prisons for the rich," "permanently delete information from iPhone." Bob explores whether any defense framing can survive that evidence.The "Walk the Dog" letter allegedly found in Kouri's jail cell appears to contain witness tampering instructions. The defense says it's fiction from a manuscript she was writing. The judge partially admitted it.And there's a shadow: Lisa Darden, Kouri's mother. Her romantic partner died of an oxycodone overdose in 2006 after naming Darden as beneficiary. A detective wrote it's "possible" she was involved in Eric's death.This is the defense playbook before trial begins.#KouriRichins #KouriRichinsTrial #EricRichins #FentanylMurder #UtahTrial #RobertCrozier #DefenseStrategy #WitnessRecantation #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On this episode of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Lance Riesland joins Dan Labbe to break down the Browns' hiring of new defensive coordinator Mike Rutenberg. Lance dives into what he's seen on film, explaining how Rutenberg's philosophy is similar to Jim Schwartz's with its aggressive front, but will feature more schematic differences. The guys also tackle the challenges Rutenberg faces as a first-time play-caller and discuss the decision to move on from Schwartz. They look at specific players, including what Martin Emerson Jr.'s role could be in a crowded cornerback room and the potential for Denzel Ward to travel with top receivers more often. Finally, they shift to the offense, exploring what new head coach Todd Monken will prioritize this offseason, from fixing a potentially depleted offensive line to maximizing the talent of receivers like Isaiah Bond.

Michael Patton is passionate about parks and recreation and he feels like the podcast has ignored this aspect of government operations for too long. A few weeks back he messaged me and articulated his case for why parks and recreation departments should be seen more as vital components of local government and not just "nice to haves" or afterthoughts in the eyes of the city manager. And speaking of city management, Michael thinks that parks and recreation directors possess a vast array of skills and experiences that should help them be successful city and county managers.

The Kouri Richins murder trial starts February 23rd. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins us live to break down what the defense is working with—and where the prosecution is vulnerable.Kouri Richins is charged with allegedly poisoning her husband Eric with fentanyl in a Moscow Mule on March 4th, 2022. The prosecution has 100+ witnesses and over 1,000 exhibits. But the defense has ammunition.Robert Crozier, the alleged fentanyl supplier, recanted in October 2025. He now says he sold OxyContin and was "detoxing" when he made his original statement. The judge denied bail anyway—but that recantation creates doubt at trial.No fentanyl was recovered from the home. The chain linking Kouri to the drug is testimony, not physical evidence. The defense will attack credibility at every turn.The judge excluded evidence that Eric was allegedly abusive and barred a domestic violence expert. Bob analyzes what that costs the defense.Prosecutors will present Kouri's Google searches: "lethal dose of fentanyl," "luxury prisons," "permanently delete iPhone info." Bob explores whether any defense framing survives that.The "Walk the Dog" letter allegedly containing witness tampering instructions was partially admitted—despite the defense arguing it's fiction from a manuscript. Bob breaks down damage control.Lisa Darden, Kouri's mother, has her own shadow: her romantic partner died of an oxycodone overdose in 2006 after naming her as beneficiary. A detective wrote she may have been involved in Eric's death.We take your questions and preview the trial in real time.#KouriRichins #RichinsTrialLive #EricRichins #FentanylPoisoning #DefenseAttorney #TrialPreview #UtahMurderTrial #HiddenKillersLive #TrueCrime #LegalAnalysisJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Nancy Guthrie investigation has no suspect in custody after sixteen days—and the mistakes are piling up. Defense attorney Bob Motta joins us live to break down what's gone wrong and what it means for the eventual trial.The crime scene was reportedly released early—journalists photographed apparent blood evidence before authorities re-secured it. The FBI allegedly wanted key evidence processed at Quantico; it was sent to a private Florida lab instead. Of sixteen gloves collected from the area, fifteen were reportedly contamination from the search team. This is a defense attorney's checklist of vulnerabilities.Bob Motta explains how each of these failures becomes a weapon for the defense. Chain of custody challenges. Evidence contamination arguments. Questions about investigative competence. When someone finally faces charges, these issues will define pre-trial motions and cross-examination.We discuss the Derrick Callella arrest—the California man charged with sending fake ransom texts to exploit the family's desperation. We examine what the Friday SWAT operation and subsequent release of four detained individuals means for the prosecution's narrative. And we address the medical reality: Nancy Guthrie reportedly requires daily heart medication she hasn't had access to in over two weeks.Inside sources are telling media this may be a burglary gone wrong rather than premeditated kidnapping. That distinction has massive implications for charges and defense strategy.This is live analysis with a veteran defense attorney who will someday face cases built on investigations just like this one.#NancyGuthrie #LiveAnalysis #DefenseAttorney #InvestigationFailures #SavannahGuthrieAunt #TucsonCase #TrueCrimeLive #LegalBreakdown #HiddenKillersLive #BreakingNewsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Roberta “Robbie” Kaplan is a renowned civil litigator and trial lawyer with decades of experience in commercial, higher education, government regulation, civil rights, and employment litigation…but is perhaps best known for her recent triumph defending her client E. Jean Carroll against Donald Trump. In both 2023 and 2024, Kaplan took on Trump in court and won both cases, securing two unanimous jury verdicts against him. Kaplan has been described as the kind of “lawyer that you don’t want to see opposing you” and has been consistently ranked as one of the top litigators in the country. Kaplan also famously argued before the Supreme Court of the United States on behalf of LGBT rights activist Edith Windsor in United States v. Windsor - which resulted in a landmark decision that invalidated a section of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act and required the federal government to recognize same-sex marriages. Kaplan was formerly a partner at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison before starting her own firm in 2017. In 2018, she co-founded the Time's Up Legal Defense Fund. Kaplan recently started a new firm in 2024 and is currently a partner at her firm Kaplan Martin LLP.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
