## Resource

When Eric Richins died in March 2022, his death initially appeared to be a tragic overdose. His wife, Kouri Richins, publicly portrayed herself as a grieving widow and even published a children's book about helping kids cope with losing a parent. But investigators soon uncovered evidence that led them in a very different direction. As they examined financial records, phone data, life insurance policies, alleged drug purchases, and witness testimony, prosecutors built a case alleging that Eric's death was anything but accidental. This episode breaks down the investigation, the trial, the shocking evidence presented in court, and the life sentence that ultimately followed.
