Utah children’s book author Kouri Richins sat making incredulous faces in court on Wednesday, May 13, as Judge Richard Mrazik delivered her sentence for the homicide of her husband, Eric Richins, in March 2022.
The moment came after her three young sons detailed the profound trauma and heartbreak their mother inflicted — not only by forever depriving them of their father’s love, but also by brutally ending the lives of their beloved pets.
In a raw testimony, the boys expressed their wish to see Kouri behind bars for the rest of her life.
