Dr. Pamela Sue Ulmer said autopsy results reveal Eric Richins had toxic levels of fentanyl and its metabolites in his system, which she would expect to find no presence of the drug because he had no history of illicit or prescription drug abuse. #CourtTV - What do YOU think?

Day four of the Kouri Richins murder trial brought the witness prosecutors have been building toward since the case began. Carmen Lauber, Kouri Richins' former housekeeper, testified under immunity that she purchased illicit drugs for Kouri four times in the weeks surrounding Eric Richins' death in March 2022.According to Lauber's testimony, the requests started with pain pills allegedly meant for an investor and escalated to fentanyl. Lauber says she told Kouri the pills were fentanyl and that Kouri told her to go ahead and get them. Cash was left in a house Kouri was flipping. Pills were dropped in a firepit. The system, as Lauber described it, was designed to keep Kouri at a distance from every handoff.The most damaging testimony may have been what allegedly happened after Eric died. According to phone records displayed in court, Kouri texted Lauber three days after her husband's death asking if she still had her connection. She paid for the purchase with a check disguised as a cleaning payment. And when Lauber says she confronted Kouri about whether the pills had been for Eric, Kouri allegedly told her he died from a brain aneurysm.The defense landed significant blows on cross. Lauber tested positive for meth throughout the period of the alleged deals, initially told investigators Kouri asked for oxycodone rather than fentanyl, and confirmed that a recorded meeting with investigators included the instruction to provide details that would ensure a conviction. Her drug source, Robert Crozier, has also changed his account of what he sold her.Earlier in the day, toxicology testimony confirmed five times the lethal dose of illicit fentanyl in Eric's blood. No hydrocodone was detected. The jury also heard about phones belonging to Kouri's alleged boyfriend that were initially reported broken but later became operable and were processed by the FBI.Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty to all charges and is presumed innocent. Cross-examination continues Friday.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two cases demanding psychological analysis. One expert providing the answers.Nancy Guthrie has been missing for three weeks. Her kidnapper hasn't communicated once—no demands, no ransom, no proof she's alive. The silence is total. What does it mean?Eric Richins reportedly told people his wife was trying to poison him. He took protective measures—lawyers, insurance changes, asset protection. Then he stayed married to her. Prosecutors allege Kouri killed him with fentanyl after multiple attempts.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins True Crime Today for comprehensive analysis of both cases. With over thirty years working with victims and perpetrators of violence, Scott examines what the behavioral evidence reveals.On Guthrie: The psychology of kidnappers who don't communicate. In hostage situations, silence isn't neutral—it's evidence. What does three weeks of nothing suggest about the perpetrator's psychology and the case's trajectory?On Richins Part 1: Inside the mind of a partner who allegedly chooses murder. How does killing become the "rational" choice? We analyze the language, the method, and the alleged performance of grief that followed.On Richins Part 2: The victim's experience. Why someone might take protective steps but not leave. How the isolation of an unbelievable suspicion keeps victims trapped.

Defense attorney Kathy Nester told the jury something remarkable in her opening statement: after four years of investigation, prosecutors have "zero evidence" showing how fentanyl got into Eric Richins' body.This week's testimony proved her point.The Moscow mule cups at the heart of the prosecution's theory were never tested—the nanny washed them the next morning. Deputy Nguyen didn't secure the kitchen. White specks on Eric's nightstand, visible in crime scene photos, were never analyzed. Crime scene tech Chelsea Gipson found no drugs in the home on her initial visit, but evidence kept turning up in subsequent searches over four years. The medical examiner testified the manner of death remains "undetermined."Eric Faddis, a former prosecutor turned defense attorney, breaks down the defense strategy taking shape in the Kouri Richins trial. What happens when prosecutors have strong motive evidence—the texts, the searches, the debt, the boyfriend—but can't connect the defendant to the actual act?The defense is betting everything on reasonable doubt. Faddis explains why that bet might pay off.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The fourth day of the Kouri Richins murder trial put the prosecution's most important witness on the stand — and the defense spent the rest of the afternoon trying to tear her apart. Carmen Lauber, the former housekeeper who allegedly obtained the fentanyl prosecutors say was used to kill Eric Richins, testified to four escalating drug transactions she says she carried out at Kouri's direction.Lauber told the jury she bought pills for Kouri starting in late January 2022 after being told they were for an investor. The requests allegedly escalated from generic opiates to fentanyl, with Kouri approving the purchase after being informed of what the pills contained. Lauber described cash drops in a house Kouri was flipping, pills left in a firepit, and a fourth buy that happened just days after Eric was found dead — paid for with a check made out for cleaning work Lauber says she never performed.Lauber also testified about a phone call with Kouri shortly after Eric's death, in which she says she told Kouri to please tell her the pills weren't for him. According to Lauber, Kouri calmly told her Eric had died from a brain aneurysm.On cross-examination, defense attorney Wendy Lewis went after Lauber's credibility from every angle — methamphetamine use during the period of the drug deals, inconsistent prior statements about whether the drugs were oxycodone or fentanyl, prior convictions, pending charges, and a failed drug court program. The defense played a recording from a 2023 investigator meeting in which Lauber was told to provide details that would ensure a conviction, and Lauber confirmed she said she'd do whatever it takes. Cross-examination was not completed and continues Friday.The morning session featured testimony from a forensic toxicologist confirming five times the lethal dose of illicit fentanyl in Eric's blood with no hydrocodone present, a crime lab scientist who found no fentanyl on 19 tested items, and testimony about phones belonging to Kouri's alleged boyfriend that were reported broken but later became functional.Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent until proven otherwise.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The shortest day so far in the Kouri Richins murder trial may have been the most consequential. In less than an hour of testimony, defense attorney Kathy Nester exposed significant gaps in the investigation that are central to the prosecution's case against the Utah mother accused of fatally poisoning her husband with fentanyl.Crime scene technician Chelsea Gipson confirmed that a hydrocodone bottle recovered from Eric Richins' nightstand was never tested for fentanyl residue. She also confirmed that the kitchen where Kouri allegedly prepared the drink prosecutors say delivered the fatal dose was not photographed. No drug paraphernalia of any kind was found in the home on the day Eric died. And Gipson agreed that it's common for people to hide illicit drugs in prescription pill bottles — a key concession that supports the defense's theory that Eric may have unknowingly or knowingly had access to fentanyl independent of his wife.The courtroom's most dramatic moment came during questioning about phone recordings when Gipson asked if Nester was referring to "jail calls." The defense immediately moved to strike the comment, and Judge Mrazik instructed jurors not to speculate about the defendant's custody history. But the reference was already on the record in the jury's minds.An unexpected early recess ended the day before noon. Gipson returns to the stand for continued cross-examination in a trial expected to last into March.Join 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 is underway in Park City, Utah—and the court documents paint a picture far more disturbing than the headlines suggest.According to prosecutors, Eric Richins didn't just die suddenly. He saw it coming. Court filings reveal he told his family that if anything happened to him, Kouri was to blame. His sister testified he believed Kouri tried to kill him during a trip to Greece years earlier. And on Valentine's Day 2022—just eighteen days before his death—Eric told two friends he thought his wife tried to poison him after a sandwich left him unable to breathe.So why didn't he leave?Family spokesman Greg Skordas put it simply: "I can give you three good reasons he stuck around and they're all under the age of ten."Eric had secretly changed his will, created a trust naming his sister as trustee, and removed Kouri as his life insurance beneficiary. He consulted divorce attorneys. But according to those close to him, he stayed because leaving meant handing his three sons to the very person he feared.Prosecutors allege Kouri was deeply in debt—over $4.5 million to more than 20 lenders—while Eric's estate was worth roughly $4 million. They say she was having an affair, texting her boyfriend "love you" just thirty minutes before allegedly handing Eric a fentanyl-laced drink.Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty to aggravated murder, attempted aggravated murder, insurance fraud, and forgery. Her defense says there's "zero evidence" of how fentanyl entered Eric's system.The trial is expected to last through late March.

Eric Richins suspected his wife was trying to kill him. He reportedly told friends. He told family. He consulted divorce lawyers and estate planners. He removed Kouri from his life insurance policy. He transferred business assets to a trust controlled by his sister.He took precautions. He didn't take the final step. He stayed.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins True Crime Today to analyze the psychology that keeps victims in dangerous relationships. This isn't about blaming Eric—it's about understanding forces most people never encounter.Suspecting your spouse wants you dead isn't comparable to other marital suspicions. It's existential. It requires accepting that the person you share a bed with, the parent of your children, could end your life. The human mind fights that conclusion with everything it has.We examine the protective measures Eric reportedly took while staying married. Legal consultations. Insurance changes. Asset transfers. He wasn't ignoring the threat—he was preparing for it. But defensive measures without leaving meant staying within reach.We analyze the isolation of an unbelievable suspicion. "I think my wife is poisoning me" sounds like paranoia to outsiders. How do you get help when your truth sounds like delusion?We discuss how children factor in. Eric and Kouri had three kids together. Does that keep victims close? Make leaving harder? Create a need to monitor the threat?And we identify warning signs others should recognize. What behaviors suggest someone you know might be in real danger from a partner? What should you do?Part 2 of a two-part series.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The defense came out swinging in the Kouri Richins murder trial and didn't waste a single minute. Attorney Kathy Nester used her cross-examination of crime scene technician Chelsea Gipson to expose a pattern of investigative gaps that go straight to the heart of the prosecution's case.A hydrocodone bottle from the victim's nightstand was never tested for fentanyl. The kitchen — central to the prosecution's theory that Kouri spiked a Moscow mule — was never photographed. No drug paraphernalia was found in the home. Items were moved during scene processing. And Gipson confirmed under oath that people commonly conceal illicit drugs inside prescription pill bottles, supporting the defense's argument that Eric Richins may have had his own access to fentanyl.The most explosive moment came when Gipson casually asked Nester if she was referring to "jail calls" while being questioned about recorded phone conversations. The defense moved to strike immediately. Judge Mrazik instructed the jury to disregard, but the damage was done — twelve jurors heard the word "jail" connected to the defendant from the prosecution's own witness.Court ended early due to unforeseen circumstances, cutting Nester's cross short. She returns Thursday with momentum and a growing list of evidence gaps that the prosecution hasn't addressed.This episode breaks down everything that happened, what it means for both sides, and why forty minutes of testimony may have just changed the trajectory of this trial.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Eric Richins took precautions. He consulted divorce lawyers. He met with estate planners. He removed Kouri from his life insurance policy. He transferred business assets into a trust controlled by his sister. He reportedly told people he suspected his wife was trying to poison him.And then he stayed.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the psychology of victims who remain in relationships they believe are dangerous. This isn't about blaming Eric or questioning his judgment. It's about understanding forces most people never have to face.Suspecting your spouse might kill you is unlike any other suspicion. It's not infidelity or money problems. It's existential. It requires accepting that the person sleeping next to you, the parent of your children, might want you dead. The brain rejects that conclusion.We analyze the protective measures Eric reportedly took while staying married. He wasn't ignoring the danger—he was preparing for it. But taking defensive steps isn't the same as leaving. Why the gap?We examine the trap of an unbelievable suspicion. If you tell someone "I think my wife is poisoning me," you sound paranoid. Delusional. Who helps you escape a truth no one believes?We discuss the role of children. Eric and Kouri had three kids together. How does that factor into staying? Protective instinct? Monitoring the threat? Something else?And we identify warning signs for friends and family. What should you recognize if someone you know is in this situation? What patterns suggest the danger is real?Part 2 of our two-part series on partner homicide psychology. Part 1 examined the alleged perpetrator. This one is for anyone who might recognize Eric's position.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
This is the episode I've been thinking about for months.The Kouri Richins trial just started in Utah. The headlines are all about the fentanyl, the children's book about grief, the alleged affair. But nobody's talking about what Eric Richins actually lived through—the years of psychological warfare before the night prosecutors say she killed him.According to court documents, Eric discovered Kouri had allegedly stolen nearly half a million dollars from him. Forged his signature. Drained his accounts. He confronted her. She promised to pay it back. She allegedly never did.He consulted divorce attorneys. Changed his will in secret. Created a trust so Kouri could never control his assets. Warned his family: if anything happens to me, she's to blame.And then—on Valentine's Day 2022—he ate one bite of a sandwich she left him. Hives. Couldn't breathe. Used his son's EpiPen. Called a friend and said: "I think my wife tried to poison me."Eighteen days later, he was dead.So why didn't he leave? Because he had three boys under ten. And there's no custody arrangement that protects kids from a parent whose mind doesn't work like yours. Eric stayed close because he thought staying was safer than leaving.He was wrong.This episode is for everyone who's ever lived with someone whose reality didn't match theirs. Who questioned their own sanity. Who stayed too long because leaving felt more dangerous than staying.Eric Richins deserves to be more than a true crime headline. He deserves to be a warning.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

"I think my wife tried to poison me." Eric Richins reportedly said those words to people close to him. He took protective steps—removed Kouri from his insurance, consulted lawyers, transferred assets to his sister's control. He wasn't in denial about the danger.And then he stayed married to her.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers Live to examine the psychology of victims who remain in relationships they believe are dangerous. This isn't judgment—it's analysis. Understanding why Eric stayed requires understanding forces most people never confront.Suspecting your partner might kill you is existential in a way other marital problems aren't. It means accepting that the person you built a life with could end that life. The mind fights that conclusion even when the evidence is there.We analyze the protective measures Eric reportedly took while staying. The legal consultations, the insurance changes, the asset protection. He was taking the threat seriously. But preparation isn't escape.We examine the isolation of an unbelievable truth. "I think my wife is poisoning me" sounds paranoid to anyone you might tell. How do you get help when reality sounds like delusion?We discuss what role the children played. Eric and Kouri had three kids together. Does that keep victims close? Monitoring the threat? Protecting the family?And we identify what friends and family should recognize.

Grief children's book author Kouri Richins is on trial in Utah, accused of fatally poisoning her husband, Eric Richins, with a fentanyl-laced Moscow mule in 2022. Prosecutors say she killed him for financial gain, while also engaging in an extramarital affair. The defense argues his death was an accidental overdose. In a special episode, 48 Hours correspondent Natalie Morales speaks with CBS News chief correspondent Matt Gutman about the key evidence, the prosecution's motive theory, and what to watch as the Utah murder trial unfolds.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/pcKCBvbOlhE In Day 2 of testimony in the Kouri Richins Trial, the jury heard from key witnesses, including the Medical Examiner, who laid out crucial forensic evidence regarding the death of Eric Richins. The Medical Examiner testified that Eric Richards' cause of death was drug intoxication by fentanyl (fentanyl poisoning/overdose). His system contained a toxic level of fentanyl and norfentanyl, despite no history of abuse. Due to the ongoing investigation at the time she concluded her report (prior to her retirement), the Medical Examiner ruled the manner of death as undetermined. The ME's testimony concluded, setting the stage for a toxicologist to take the stand to elaborate on the concentration of drugs and the critical difference between stomach contents and blood levels—which will be vital for establishing a timeline of ingestion and death. Tomorrow, we expect the cross-examination of the CSI witness.

Two recordings from the night Eric Richins died are now public — and they tell very different stories depending on who's interpreting them.The 911 call, placed at 3:21 a.m. on March 4, 2022, captures Kouri Richins in apparent distress. She's sobbing. She tells the dispatcher her husband isn't breathing and he's cold. She says she came to bed and found him unresponsive. She doesn't know how to do CPR but says she'll try. The defense played this call in open court and framed it as raw, unfiltered anguish. But prosecutors allege Kouri picked up her phone fifteen minutes before placing that call — and they say the delay points to a guilty conscience.Deputy Nguyen's body camera footage shows the scene inside the house. Kouri is visible, appearing distraught, answering officers' questions while medics work on Eric behind her. She tells law enforcement they had celebratory drinks, that she went to sleep in her son's room, and that Eric might have taken a THC gummy. Her mother arrives and mentions an allergy shot from the previous day. At that point, nobody on scene had any idea fentanyl was involved. Deputies floated the possibility of an aneurysm.In this episode, we go through the call and the footage in real time. We break down tone, body language, word choice, and the gap between 3:06 and 3:21 a.m. Then we ask the audience to tell us what they see. Is this shock? Is it performance? Is it something in between?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Eighteen days before Eric Richins died, he called two friends and said, "I think my wife tried to poison me." One friend says he heard fear in Eric's voice. That statement goes directly to the attempted murder charge against Kouri Richins—and it may be the most damaging evidence prosecutors have.Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down the first week of the Kouri Richins trial in Summit County, analyzing what we learned from opening statements and where this five-week case is most likely to be won or lost.The prosecution painted Kouri as a calculated killer who poisoned her husband for nearly $2 million in life insurance she allegedly took out without his knowledge. The defense promised to show the state's case is built on compromised witnesses and circumstantial evidence. Bob explains where those narratives will collide hardest.The Valentine's Day call is powerful—but it's secondhand testimony. Bob walks through how the defense will try to neutralize it without looking like they're attacking a dead man's friends. The strategy matters as much as the facts.Carmen Lauber—the housekeeper who claims she sold Kouri fentanyl—is the prosecution's key link between Kouri and the murder weapon. She's been granted immunity. Her supplier has recanted. No pills were ever recovered or tested. Bob explains how he'd approach cross-examining a witness whose credibility has already been undermined by her own source.The 15-minute gap before the 911 call. The orange notebook with Kouri's "firsthand account." The insurance fraud charges bundled with the murder. Bob analyzes each pressure point and explains where the defense has the best opportunity to create reasonable doubt.This is trial strategy broken down in real time—by someone who knows how cases are won and lost.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The cause of death isn't in dispute. Eric Richins died of a fentanyl overdose—several times the lethal amount. Dr. Pamela Sue Ulmer confirmed it on the stand. No evidence of injury. No natural causes.The question is whether prosecutors can prove Kouri Richins put it there.Day 2 of this Utah murder trial featured first responders, medical examiners, and a 3D virtual walkthrough of the crime scene. But the defense used every witness to highlight what investigators didn't do. Deputy Vincent Nguyen never entered the kitchen. An empty hydrocodone bottle wasn't bagged. Glassware in the sink went through the dishwasher before anyone preserved it.Prosecutors say Kouri was $4.5 million in debt, texting a boyfriend about their future, and allegedly bought fentanyl from her housekeeper Carmen Lauber. They say she tried to poison Eric on Valentine's Day 2022 and succeeded two weeks later. After his death, she wrote a children's book about grief and went on a media tour.Defense attorney Kathy Nester told the jury investigators searched the house as recently as two weeks ago. Four years later. Still looking. Her argument: if the case is airtight, why?Both things can be true. The evidence looks damning. The investigation has gaps. Reasonable doubt lives in those gaps.Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Forget the opening statements. Forget the attorneys' spin. In this episode, we go straight to the source — the two recordings that captured Kouri Richins in the hours after Eric Richins was found dead in their bed.First, the 911 call. Placed at 3:21 a.m. on March 4, 2022. Kouri is crying hard. She can barely form sentences. She tells the dispatcher her husband isn't breathing, that he's cold, that she doesn't know what happened. When asked about CPR, she says she doesn't know how. The defense played this for the jury and called it the sound of a wife becoming a widow. But the prosecution says Kouri first accessed her phone at 3:06 a.m. That's fifteen minutes before she dialed 911. What was happening during those fifteen minutes?Then, Deputy Nguyen's bodycam footage. Kouri is on camera answering law enforcement questions while paramedics attempt to resuscitate Eric in the background. She appears distraught. She recounts celebratory drinks around 9 p.m., going to sleep in her son's room, and finding Eric cold when she came back to the bedroom. She tells officers he may have taken a THC gummy. Her mother Lisa Darden arrives and brings up an allergy shot Eric had the day before. Nobody at that scene — not the deputies, not the medics, not the family — knew fentanyl was in his system. Deputies were wondering if it was an aneurysm.We break it all down. The tone. The body language. The details she volunteers. The details she doesn't. And then we hand it to you. What do you see when you watch this footage? Genuine grief or something else? We want your take in the comments.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Examining the email that Kouri Richins wrote to investigators looking into the Fentanyl induced death of her husband Eric Richins. Kouri Richins is on trial for the murder and attempted murder of her husband and father of her three children, Eric Richins. Today's testimony was science and fact heavy. It was established that Richins was opiate naive and the Fentanyl dose that prosecutors allege Kouri Richins snuck into his Moscow Mule cocktail on 3/3/2022 was a lethal dose that ended his life. We heard from the medical examiner and investigator who found documents in the Richins home that became evidence against Richins but the contents of those documents were not disclosed.Show Sponsor - Shelley Levisay "Love Isn't Always the Answer" - https://a.co/d/6KtEaC3Show Notes:Kouri Richins "Walk the Dog Letter" - https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/23980331-kouri-richins-walk-the-dog-letter/KSLTV "Search warrant: Richins' mother had a romantic partner also die of ‘suspicious overdose' in 2006 " - https://ksltv.com/local-news/detectives-kouri-richins-mother-had-a-romantic-partner-who-also-died-of-suspicious-overdose-in-2006/631091/ABC 4 "Kouri Richins writes email prior to arrest explaining ‘exotic vacations,' husband's alleged affair" -https://www.abc4.com/richins/kouri-richins-allegedly-writes-email-authorities-prior-to-arrest-to-clarify/KSL "Kouri Richins Timeline" - https://www.ksl.com/article/51446543/heres-a-timeline-of-the-kouri-richins-case-as-jury-selection-gets-underwayGet access to exclusive content & support the podcast by a Patron today! https://patreon.com/robertaglasstruecrimereportThrow a tip in the tip jar! https://buymeacoffee.com/robertaglassSupport Roberta by sending a donation via Venmo. https://venmo.com/robertaglassBecome a chanel member for custom Emojis, first looks and exclusive streams here: https://youtube.com/@robertaglass/joinThank you Patrons!Beth, Shelley Safford, Carol Mumumeci, Therese Tunks, JC, Lizzy D, Elizabeth Drake, Texas Mimi, Barb, Deborah Shults, Ratliff, Stephanie Lamberson, Maryellen Sudol, Mona, Karen Pacini, Jen Buell, Marie Horton, ER, Rosie Grace, B.
