A Utah children's book author who wrote about coping with grief after her husband's death, and was later accused of fatally poisoning him, was called 'desperate, greedy and extremely manipulative' by her sister-in-law during a detention hearing Monday.
In a victim's impact statement she read in court, Amy Richins, Eric's sister, called her sister-in-law"desperate, greedy and extremely manipulative." She accused her of intentionally poisoning Eric and said it was painful for the family to watch Kouri Richins' promote her book and herself as an amazing mother.
While a handcuffed Richins shook her head in defiance, prosecutors questioned the detective about the housekeeper who claims to have sold her fentanyl weeks before it was found in her husband's system and the family's"bug out bags" full of emergency provisions and passports they suggested made her a flight risk unsuitable for bail.
"One or two pills might be accident. Twenty — or five times the lethal dose — is not accidental. That is a lot. That is someone who wanted Eric dead," Summit County Chief Prosecutor Patricia Cassell said.
