GUILTY: Surprise Late Verdict For Grief Author Kouri Richins

We’re just days away from the premier of a new season of “The Bachelorette” with reality star Taylor Frankie Paul. ABC and Disney made the controversial choice even after Paul pleaded guilty to aggravated assault stemming from a 2023 domestic violence incident. Now, police have confirmed they are investigating yet another reported assault with her same ex-boyfriend who continues to play a prominent role in the newly released season of “The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives.” The incident has now forced filming of the latest season of Mormon Wives to STOP just as “The Bachelorette” debuts on Sunday.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Utah jury of 8 took less than 3 hours to find 35 year old mom of three, Kouri Richins guilty of fatally poisoning her husband Eric with a fentanyl spiked Moscow mule.   Closing arguments and jury instructions took most of the day, so it was a surprise when they continued to deliberate into the evening to come back with guilty verdicts on all counts.  RIchins’ reaction was palpable as the judge read the the verdicts aloud, her head fell and she never looked up again.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kouri RIchins’ defense team put on a fiery closing argument to jurors, insisting the prosecution did not prove Richins purchased Fentanyl and not did prove she gave it to her husband.  The prosecution ended its rebuttal with this final, powerful command: “See through her facade, check her ambition, and do not let her get away with murder.“See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The prosecution put on an extremely effective closing today, giving a detailed timeline of what Kouri did NOT do to try and save her husband’s life and appealed to the jury’s common sense for why and how they claim Kouri poisoned her husband. As soon as the prosecution finished, the defense called for a mistrial. The judge denied that motion but did agree to re-instruct the jury after prosecutors compared RIchins to a black widow and  discussed the facial expressions she was making throughout the trial. Next up, the defense.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
