A housecleaner who worked for Kouri Richin testified in her murder trial Thursday. Carmen Lauber said she supplied the fentanyl allegedly used by Richins to kill her husband. Lauber's statement said that she sold illicit pills to Richin four times in 2022.​

In her testimony, Lauber said, 'She'd called me and asked me if I could reach out to somebody for some pain meds for an investor that she knew.' She also stated that she had told Richin on the phone a few days after Eric Richins' death, 'Please tell me these pills were not for him,' which Richins answered with, 'No, they were not. Eric passed away from a brain aneurysm,' per CNN.
