Eric Richins knew. He knew his marriage was dangerous. He knew his wife's business was collapsing. He knew she needed him dead more than she needed him alive. So he went to divorce attorneys. He went to estate planners. He removed Kouri from his will. He cut her from his life insurance. He built a trust she didn't know about — designed specifically to protect their three sons from the woman he'd married. He did everything a person could do to shield his children from what he saw coming. This Hidden Killers Week in Review combines two episodes telling Eric's story and exposing every step of what Kouri Richins did to him.
Eric survived the first poisoning attempt — a fentanyl-laced sandwich on Valentine's Day that left him gasping for air. He reached for his son's EpiPen because it was the only thing that could save him. After that, he told friends directly that he believed Kouri was trying to end his life. He was right. And despite knowing, despite preparing, despite building every legal barrier he could construct, he couldn't stop what was coming. Two weeks after Valentine's Day, Kouri handed him a Moscow Mule with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl.
The woman who killed him owed $7.5 million. She had 236 bounced checks and fifteen failed renovation projects behind her. She had secretly purchased $1.9 million in life insurance on Eric's life. She had a boyfriend she was texting "love you" the night she mixed the drink. She had asked her housekeeper for fentanyl by calling it "the Michael Jackson stuff." And she had a prenup that made murder more profitable than divorce. A jury heard all of it and convicted her on every count in less than three hours. Eric's sons survived because of the trust their father built. Kouri never knew it existed.
