Within hours he was gasping for air. He grabbed his son's EpiPen because it was the only thing within reach that might keep him alive. He survived. He told friends he believed Kouri was trying to end his life. Two weeks later, she handed him a Moscow Mule. This time the fentanyl dose was five times lethal. In this Hidden Killers Week in Review, Tony Brueski traces the complete Kouri Richins case across two episodes — the financial desperation that built the motive and the calculated murder plan that followed. The money trail tells you everything about why. Kouri's house-flipping operation was collapsing — 236 bounced checks, fifteen failed projects, $7.5 million in debt with no way to service it. Her prenup made divorce a financial dead end. Her forensic accountant called the situation imploding. So Kouri took out $1.9 million in life insurance on Eric without his knowledge, started an affair with Robert Josh Grossmann, and began texting Grossmann about marrying him while her husband was still alive. Eric sensed what was coming. He removed Kouri from his will, severed her from his life insurance, and quietly built a trust to protect their three sons. None of it saved him. Kouri procured the fentanyl through her housekeeper by asking for \"the Michael Jackson stuff.\" She tested it on Valentine's Day. When Eric survived, she adjusted the dose and switched the delivery method from food to a cocktail. The jury heard the texts, saw the financial records, and followed the fentanyl trail. They convicted her on every count in less than three hours.
