Kouri Richins has been sentenced to Life Without Parole after being found guilty of murdering her husband, Eric Richins, by poisoning him with a lethal dose of fentanyl in March 2022. She was also sentenced to several consecutive sentences for the other 4 charges.

The case drew national attention from the beginning: a Utah mother, real estate agent, and children’s book author accused of killing her husband while presenting herself publicly as a grieving widow. Prosecutors argued Richins killed Eric for financial gain, pointing to life insurance policies, mounting debt, alleged prior poisoning attempts, and evidence surrounding the night he died.

A jury rejected the defense’s claim that Eric’s death was tied to accidental drug use and convicted Richins of aggravated murder, attempted murder, insurance fraud, and forgery. Now, with sentencing complete, the case enters its next chapter — one defined by punishment, accountability, and the lasting impact of Eric Richins’ murder on his family.
