A Utah children's book author has been sentenced to life in prison without parole after being convicted of murdering her husband in a case that has drawn international attention due to allegations of poisoning, financial motive, and a fatal fentanyl overdose.
Kouri Richins, a mother of three who previously wrote a children's book about grief following her husband's death, was found guilty of aggravated murder in the killing of her husband, Eric Richins. A jury also convicted her of attempted aggravated murder, insurance fraud, and forgery.
