How Long Until Kouri Richins Pays Off Her Debt?!

Three hundred and seventy-six years. That’s how long it would take Kouri Richins to pay off the $1.37 million a judge just ordered her to return — if she worked every available hour at the highest wage Utah’s prisons offer. She was convicted of poisoning her husband Eric Richins for the insurance money. The forensic accountant at trial testified she burned through the entire payout in under ninety days.On August 28, the court signed off on the restitution and sent the debt to collectors. Her lawyer didn’t dispute the figure. The request to hold off while she appeals went nowhere — the judge said the law gave him no choice. Before the murder trial even began, this same judge had ruled she was too poor to pay for her own defense. The county covered her attorneys and is covering her appeal.The restitution is only the financial reckoning she’s facing right now. Another twenty-six felony charges sit in a separate Summit County filing. Prosecutors say she secretly borrowed against her husband’s home, fabricated bank documents for lenders, and took $45,000 from her closest friend through a deal that left the friend’s family without a home. A scheduling conference is set for October 9.This episode covers the restitution order, the trail of debt the money disappeared into, and the fraud case that’s next on the docket.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
