What Was Kouri Richins Really Doing During Her 45-Minute Courtroom Speech?

Everyone heard the words. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott heard something else entirely. Kouri Richins spoke for nearly forty-five minutes at her sentencing — the first public words since her arrest — and framed the entire speech as a love letter to her sons. But Shavaun explains that what Kouri was actually doing was something far more complex and far more damaging.She told her children the murder was a lie. She told them they'd been manipulated into believing it. She asked them to advocate on her behalf to the family raising them — the family they finally feel safe with. She coached them to adopt her posture of defiance. And she ended by promising she was coming home to them.All of this after prosecutors read a message she sent an admirer where she called herself unstoppable and signed off with a winking emoji. Shavaun breaks down the psychology of a speech designed to look like love but function as something else entirely.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
