Kouri Richins Trial: 1,000 Exhibits and the Evidence That Could End It

Forget the pretrial wins. The prosecution is walking into this courtroom with over 100 witnesses, more than 1,000 exhibits, and five weeks of trial to present what they say is an airtight case for premeditated murder. Former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down every piece of the state's strongest evidence.It starts with Valentine's Day 2022. Prosecutors allege Kouri tried to kill Eric before — lacing his sandwich with fentanyl months before his death. Two friends reportedly say Eric told them his wife tried to poison him. His sister says he told family Kouri was to blame if anything happened. A new life insurance policy allegedly went into effect ten days before that attempt.Carmen Lauber is expected to testify that Kouri asked her directly — twice — to buy fentanyl, and after the first alleged attempt, requested something stronger: "the Michael Jackson stuff." Warrants reportedly show she also asked a handyman to source fentanyl and propofol. Her Google searches allegedly include lethal fentanyl doses, luxury prisons, insurance payouts, and deleting digital records. A letter found in her jail cell allegedly outlines false testimony for family members. A handwriting expert is prepared to testify that insurance signatures were forged.The medical examiner found more than five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in Eric's system. Prosecutors say Kouri mixed it into a Moscow Mule she made while celebrating a real estate closing. Faddis explains how the state ties toxicology, a prior attempt, forged documents, and digital evidence into one closing argument — and whether the defense has any path through it.#KouriRichins #RichinsTrial #EricRichins #FentanylMurder #CarmenLauber #ForgedInsurance #ProsecutionEvidence #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
