UPDATES: As of the latest hearing today, June 12th, a judge ruled that Kouri will remain behind bars while she awaits her trial. In this hearing, Eric’s sister, Amy, gave a powerful victim impact statement, ”We have scarcely gone a day without finding out some new allegations or evidence regarding something Kouri appears to have maliciously done to attack and undermine my brother, his three little boys and our family," she said. A trial date has not been set. Since recording, Kouri’s google searches have been uncovered and it points even more to her guilt. She looked up things like “can you overdose on fentanyl” and “signs of being under federal investigation.” These are just two of many incriminating searches. Learn more here: www.abc4.com/news/local-news/kouri-richins-google-searches-after-she-allegedly-killed-husband/

@estianna76 Год назад

I was thinking the exact same thing… I have a gut feeling Eric’s sister won’t say a bad word about the boys mother, but it must take an enormous amount of self discipline to not bad mouth her. Although, from picking up on what kind of family Eric is from, I think the auntie will put her feelings aside & do what’s right by those little boys. Wishing Eric’s sons & the rest of his family, healing thoughts, I pray they get the justice they deserve, albeit that justice takes the boys mother away from them. I hope, with their extended family & possible therapy the boys will grow up to be just like their dad & learn to have forgiveness for their mother. (Not for her sake), purely for their own healing. RIP Eric ❤

Wow this is such a horrible case. This female (not to curse her out to keep it clean for RU-vid) basically won the lottery when she married this man!!! He was a family man, came from a good home, had good values, was smart, had his own business etc etc. literally what any woman would want and she goes and kills him?!?!?!?

Eric was in an emotionally and financially abusive relationship. He loved his wife and she would’ve used that love he had for her and their family to her benefit. My brother is in an abusive relationship and it’s horrible to watch. It’s a statistic that isn’t reported on accurately and isn’t provided enough resources. Eric sounds like an amazing husband, father, brother, son. My thoughts are with his family who must miss him greatly.

In the program 48 Hours, her family shares a completely different version of events. She has a mother and two brothers who believe in her innocence, claiming that it took her two months after her husband's death to close the property deal, and no one mentions her hosting a party after his passing. Personally, I believe it's important to hear both sides before making any accusations, especially when I wasn’t there to witness it.

I still cannot believe that it is legal to change a life insurance policy without the other person knowing. I also don’t think it should be legal that you take out a life insurance policy on someone without their knowledge. I cannot believe the laws have not changed, they need to change this so that the insured person has to sign it and it Has to be notarized. That would prevent so many motives for murder.

I have to disagree with that, because..if she treated her husband Eric, an adult, how would she treat her children? Not to be an armchair psychologist, but she seems very narcissistic, so I think it's safe to say that she wouldn't treat them too well. I think, as well as a lot of people, that Eric may have been trying to get things in order with Kouri to keep his sons safe.
