Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/UNfVxmnKy0I In this Case Brief about Kouri Richins, with jury selection approaching in February 2026, the court addresses multiple pretrial motions, including the admissibility of expert testimony regarding alleged forgeries and domestic violence. The court ruled to seal the entirety of the following day's hearing (January 8th) and its audio recording to protect the integrity of the jury pool and voir dire process, although the final rulings themselves will be public.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D. Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/XLDFqoMpi30 The Kouri Richins aggravated murder case is on the "big drop to trial" with over 1,300 filings! In this Case Brief, we break down the latest court rulings and what to expect as we move toward the trial date. The prosecution and defense are fighting over the infamous "Walk The Dog Letter" (Docket 214) found in Richins' jail cell. We discuss the arguments for and against its admission, with the prosecution claiming it shows "consciousness of guilt," intent, plan, and identity. We look at the court's denial of Kouri Richins' second motion to reconsider her pre-trial release. The defense argued a key witness recanted a statement about selling fentanyl, but the court found no "material change in circumstances." The court's ruling on the motion to appoint counsel for Kouri Richins' mother, Lisa Darden, a potential witness whose testimony could implicate her Fifth Amendment rights. The court denied the defense's motion to compel financial documents from Katie Richins-Benson, the victim's sister and trust executive, citing a failure to "meet and confer" and an "overly broad" request. Details on the two-day evidentiary hearings on January 7th and 8th for expert testimony and motions in limine—and why the judge has ordered no live streaming.

In this episode of Pretty Lies & Alibis, we break down Day 1 of the Kouri Richins evidentiary hearing and the key expert testimony battles unfolding ahead of her upcoming trial.The defense sought to block three of the state's expert witnesses, focusing heavily on the controversial “Pathway to Violence” model. Defense expert Dr. Fox testified that the model is not scientifically reliable, lacks peer-reviewed validation, has no known error rate, and cannot be used to predict individual acts of violence — arguing that its use amounts to profiling rather than science under Utah Rule of Evidence 702.The state countered with testimony from Dr. Ammon, who described the model as one of several tools used retrospectively in targeted violence prevention. The judge ultimately issued a partial ruling, limiting how the model may be used at trial.We also cover:The judge's decision allowing a handwriting expert to testify regarding alleged forgeryWhy testimony from Dr. Sherry Veneno was ruled not currently relevant — but could be revisitedWhy Day 2 of the hearing will not be livestreamed due to sealed evidenceDonate: (Thank you for your support!

The state requested a ruling that Kouri Richins attorneys are in contempt of the court's authority for violating the protection order with certain statements they made during an interview with KUTV2.The state asserts defendant's counsel violated the protection order which incorporates Rule 3.6 of the UTAH Rules Of Professional Conduct by participating in an interview with KUTV2 News to influence future sworn jurors because counsel believes that the playing field in the courtroom is not level. In response, the defense says they complied with the safe harbor provisions of Rule 3.6 and their public statements were necessary to respond to numerous false narratives.Link to interview with Kouri's attorneys https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66XSjYpm6PU&t=115sALL MERCH 10% off with code Sherlock10 at checkout - NEW STYLES Donate: (Thank you for your support!

Kouri Richins has been accused of poisoning her husband, then posing as a “grieving widow” by writing a children’s book about grief. Though Kouri has yet to go to trial, evidence continues to build. From allegedly buying fentanyl from their housekeeper to recording her murder plans in a notebook, she seems to be digging her own grave…See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In most families, the holidays are driven by loving, caring mothers who can't wait to get everybody under the same roof. But what happens when the “mom” at the center of the story is accused — or convicted — of destroying her own family? In this Profiling Evil episode, we look at how high-profile women like Ruby Franke, Jodi Hildebrandt, Kouri Richins, and Lori Vallow Daybell will likely spend their holidays behind bars. Richins' charges are still allegations. What are the holidays actually like in prisons and jails. We'll even chat about the difference from conditions in historic Utah jails from the 1800s and how they compared the modern world of inmate tablets, education programs, and even conjugal-visits. Is spending Christmas in prison the worst thing that can happen to you…or is it living with the knowledge that you murdered or brutalized your own children?#ProfilingEvil #MappingEvil #RubyFranke #JodiHildebrandt #KouriRichins #KoriRichins #EricRichins #LoriVallowDaybell #LoriDaybell #JJVallow #TyleeRyan #TammyDaybell #truecrime #prisonlife #holidayinprison #ChristmasInPrison #UtahJails #JuabCountyJail #StGeorgeJail #FillmoreJail #UtahTerritorialJail #womeninprison #childabuse #childmurder #influencercrime #doomsdaymom #corrections #incarceration #victims #criminalbehavior #riskreduction #LasVegasConference #Newspapers=======================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================20% Discount off of Newspapers.com https://Newspapers.com/ProfilingEvil========================================LOOKING FOR WAYS TO SUPPORT PROFILING EVIL?

Baker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/pg7ZYry8wWw The Kouri Richins case just got a lot more complicated. This episode dives deep into the sealed documents and motions that have appeared on the docket and the TV interview her defense attorneys appeared in. The defense team speaks out in a rare television interview, stating they had an "ethical duty" to correct a false media narrative, which they claim the prosecution declined to address. Shortly after the interview, attorney Alexander Ramos gets his own legal representation in the case—a move that is unprecedented and concerning. We explore whether this is tied to the television interview, or the defense's conversation with the "recanting" witness, Robert Crozier. Multiple sealed affidavits from prosecutor Bloodworth, a sealed Order to Show Cause, and a sealed opposition memorandum all point to a major legal conflict brewing behind the scenes. If Attorney Ramos has become a witness in the case, what does that mean for Kouri Richins' February trial?

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on @TheEmilyDBaker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/Gi3OiGX-PBs In this Case Brief update on the Kouri Richins case, we delve into the latest motions filed by the defense, including their attempt to subpoena Kouri Richins' sister-in-law, Katie Richins-Benson, the executive of the estate. The defense is seeking financial activities of the Eric Richins' living trust from March 3rd, 2022, to the present, as well as copies of checks drawn from the sister-in-law's personal or business accounts made payable to individuals connected to the investigation. Katie's attorney responds to the subpoena, calling the requests vague, ambiguous, and an "undue burden" and "blind fishing expedition" aimed at harassment. The attorney clarifies that individuals the defense insinuated were "paid witnesses" are actually retained expert witnesses in the civil case regarding the estate. The defense claims a witness, Robert Crozier, recanted his statement about selling fentanyl, now stating he only sold Oxy or Roxy's. The prosecution argues there's no undisclosed exculpatory evidence and that Crozier's recent assertion is not credible. The defense's motion to reconsider bail and conditions of release is discussed, with the prosecution asserting that Crozier's changed statement does not amount to a material change in circumstance. Kouri Richins' attorneys request a hearing in the civil case regarding the estate to compel production of trust report information and enforce an order requiring trust accounting, believing this information will impact the criminal trial. Stay tuned for more updates on the Kouri Richins case as motions ramp up and court dates are set.

A rooftop sniper and a poisoned cocktail. One case headed for the death penalty. Another hanging by a thread. In this special longform segment, criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins us for a double-case breakdown: the capital murder prosecution of Tyler James Robinson for the alleged politically motivated assassination of Charlie Kirk—and the bombshell developments in the Kouri Richins case, where the state's star witness has just recanted.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on @TheEmilyDBaker YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/FGOrXwYIQA4 Join us as we delve into the latest developments in the Kouri Richins case, where she is accused of poisoning her husband with fentanyl. The defense claims the prosecution failed to disclose exculpatory evidence, specifically a changed witness statement regarding the type of drug sold. The defense requests for a court order compelling disclosure of evidence and the potential impact of the changed witness statement on the upcoming trial in February 2026. Robert Crozier initially stated he sold fentanyl but later recanted, claiming he sold Oxycodone and was detoxing during his first interview.Forensic analysis of Kouri Richins's phone revealed deleted messages and suspicious internet searches after Eric's death, including queries about deleted data recovery, prison facilities, and lethal doses of fentanyl. The prosecution has yet to make a response when Emily breaks down the complex legal arguments and the critical evidence in this ongoing case.

The prosecution's narrative in the Kouri Richins murder case is suddenly on shaky ground. A bombshell affidavit just dropped: Robert Crozier—once billed as the key to the state's fentanyl chain theory—now says he never sold fentanyl to the housekeeper prosecutors claim passed it to Kouri. That breaks the chain. And when you consider that no fentanyl was ever recovered, and no forensic link directly ties Kouri to the drugs… the state's case starts to look a whole lot less certain. But is it fatal? Joining us is former prosecutor and seasoned defense attorney Eric Faddis to break it all down. We dive deep into the implications of this recantation, how it affects the admissibility of testimony from Lauber (the housekeeper), and whether the state can pivot its sourcing theory midstream without torpedoing its credibility. We also look at the 5x lethal dose tox report, the Valentine's Day sandwich allegation, the “Walk the Dog” jailhouse letter, suppression motions over seized notebooks and phones, and 11 terabytes of dumped discovery that may constitute its own Brady violation. This is no longer just about who gave who a pill. It's about whether the legal system is equipped to handle contradictions, missing evidence, and high public scrutiny without crumbling under the weight of its own complexity. Don't miss this legal autopsy of a case that could still go either way.

A major shock just hit the Kouri Richins murder case—and it's not coming from the defense. It's coming from the prosecution's own key witness, who now says he never sold fentanyl to anyone connected to Richins. That single statement might be enough to crack the entire case wide open. In this episode of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, we dig into the explosive new affidavit from Robert Crozier, the alleged drug dealer the state claims supplied the fentanyl that killed Eric Richins. In newly filed court documents, Crozier swears under oath that he didn't sell fentanyl—he sold oxycodone. And that one change blows a hole straight through the state's carefully constructed narrative. The defense has now filed a motion to reconsider bail and another to compel evidence disclosure, claiming the prosecution knew about this change as far back as April 2025—and said nothing. If true, this isn't just a twist. It could be a Brady violation—a failure to turn over exculpatory evidence—which would shake the case at its core. We break down everything: the potential legal fallout, the impact on the upcoming February 2026 trial, and whether prosecutors can still prove murder without being able to trace the weapon—fentanyl—back to the accused. And with no physical pills, no forensic link, and a recanted witness, the state may now be walking into court with a theory that's missing its spine. Is this the beginning of the end for the prosecution's case against Kouri Richins? Or will the state fight back with new evidence to keep their narrative alive?

The prosecutors' star witness in the Kouri Richins case has recanted key testimony accusing Richins of supplying the fentanyl she allegedly used to poison her husband, prompting her legal team to seek a reconsideration of her bail and case proceedings. Meanwhile, in New Hampshire's Bear Brook murders, investigators have for the first time identified the final unknown victim as Rea Rasmussen, the daughter of serial killer Terry Rasmussen, using advanced DNA and genealogical methods, bringing a nearly 40-year investigation closer to closure.
