riminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter is joined by criminal defense attorney Skye Lazaro, who previously represented Kouri Richins, to break down Richins’ new fight to have her verdict tossed and be granted a new trial.

After being sentenced to life in prison for the murder of her husband, Eric Richins, Kouri Richins is now claiming there were “irregularities in the trial proceedings and cumulative error.” On Wednesday, Judge Richard Mrazik recused himself after accusations of bias, meaning another judge will now review Richins’ motion for a new trial.

Skye joins Josh to discuss what this motion really means, how difficult it is to get a verdict thrown out, and what “cumulative error” means in a criminal case.

Then, in tonight’s Leftovers segment, Josh covers major updates in three more headline-making cases:

Nancy Guthrie — The latest developments and unanswered questions in the search for answers in Guthrie’s disappearance.

Duane “Keffe D” Davis — The latest in the case against the man accused in the murder of Tupac Shakur.

Courtney Clenney — New developments ahead of trial for the OnlyFans model accused of killing her boyfriend, Christian Obumseli.

Josh Ritter is joined by GiGi McKelvey of Pretty Lies & Alibis to break down today's first hearing in Alex Murdaugh's new murder trial proceedings.

Murdaugh was back in court for the first time since being granted a new trial, as his attorneys argued for additional DNA testing, a change of venue, and other key pretrial issues. GiGi was inside the courtroom and joins Josh to discuss what happened, the legal significance of today's arguments, and what stood out from inside the hearing.

Josh and GiGi break down the biggest developments from today's hearing, including the defense's push for DNA testing, the battle over where the retrial should be held, and what today's rulings could mean as the case moves toward trial.

Plus, Josh will break down today's federal hearing involving Luigi Mangione. A judge addressed scheduling and jury selection ahead of Mangione's federal trial, while the defense continues navigating parallel state and federal prosecutions. Josh explains what happened in court today, what it means for the road ahead, and the legal issues likely to shape both cases.

Criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor Joshua Ritter is joined by Fox News Digital investigative reporter Michael Ruiz to break down the latest twist in the Nancy Guthrie case after TMZ reported receiving a new anonymous note claiming there may be video connected to Guthrie and one of her alleged kidnappers.

Michael has been closely covering the Nancy Guthrie case, and he joins Josh to discuss the latest reporting, what is known about the new claim, what remains unverified, and how investigators may evaluate ransom-style communications like this. Josh and Michael analyze whether this could be a credible break in the case, what red flags to look for, and what it could mean for the search for answers.

Then, in the Leftovers segment, Josh covers major updates in three more headline-making cases:

Tyler Robinson / Charlie Kirk Case — Judge Graf rules on whether prosecutors violated a pretrial publicity order and whether the death penalty remains on the table.
