Kouri Richins is a 33‑year‑old Utah mother of three, a former real estate agent, and author of a self‑published children’s book titled Are You With Me?, which addresses coping with the death of a parent. In March 2022, her husband, Eric Richins, was found dead from a lethal dose of illicit fentanyl. Prosecutors allege Kouri poisoned him—first with a bagel sandwich on Valentine’s Day and later via a fentanyl‑laced Moscow mule cocktail—and wrote the grief book afterward, allegedly to bolster her narrative of his “unexpected” death.


Additionally, in June 2025, she was charged with 26 new felony counts—including mortgage fraud, money laundering, forgery, issuing bad checks, communications fraud, and engaging in a pattern of unlawful activity—stemming from alleged financial misconduct tied to her husband's finances and her real estate company both before and after his death. Authorities claim she took out unauthorized loans, forged documents, misappropriated funds for business expenses, and left her real estate business deeply in debt (nearly $5 million by the day after Eric’s death)
