I just need to say that I read the preliminary hearing briefing that
@Seattle1 mentioned upthread for the first time earlier this week and was STUNNED by the amount of information provided in this document! Especially the text messages that were recovered.
drive.google.com
Here’s some of the information that I found the most compelling —
OCTOBER 1, 2020
Eric learned that KR took out the HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) on his house from
a bank representative — on a random day that he just so happened to go into the bank — as well as opened and maxed out two credit cards
OCTOBER 13, 2020
Eric consulted a divorce lawyer and an estate planning lawyer
(less than two weeks after he learned about the HELOC and credit cards)
OCTOBER 14, 2020
KR texted her best friend:
KR:
“Idk what to do… if he thinks I owe him money then that’s fine, I’ll pay whatever he thinks and then I’m out!!! It’s getting a little out of hand!”
(Eric clearly confronted KR about the information he’d recently learned and shared that he’d met with a divorce attorney the previous day.)
BF:
“How much did you take out?”
KR:
“A lot!”
BF:
“How long do you think it would take you to pay him back?”
KR:
“$250k it will take me a couple of months until my investments pay out… So I just gotta be top notch careful! He’s totally going to I feel like and then *advertiser censored* will hit the fan. And there’s nothing more important to me than the boys and making sure custody is always going to be at least 50/50 and if he digs and digs and finds something I don’t want him hiring some expensive attorney to fight for the kids or something….”
NOVEMBER 3, 2020
Eric formed the Eric Richins Living Trust – and placed his estate under the control of his sister Katie – and transferred his partnership interest to his Trust and designated the Trust (AKA Katie) the beneficiary of his $500,000 life insurance policy
(without telling KR)
JUNE 29, 2021
KR emailed Iron Bridge Mortgage Fund, a hard money lender, an altered account statement in support of an application for a $346,000 loan.
The altered statement contained the header of KRR’s May 2021 account statement and the body/substance of C&E’s (Eric’s business) May 2021 account statement to make it appear that her account balance was $210,898.61 (when it was actually $15,609.93).
A representative emailed KR in regards to her concerns about KR’s low credit score and credit card delinquencies. KR told the representative:
“...everything is paid off now it just probably hasn’t been updated. I recently learned about all of this as well LOL and then my husband decided to explain to me this was his doing a while ago… We are in the process of separation for one of many reasons but this is one of them to keep it short and sweet LOL… it’s been crazy to say the least!”
(Can you even believe the nerve of this woman!!!!)
AUGUST 2, 2021
KR repeated her earlier actions with Iron Bridge Mortgage with another hard money lender, Boomerang Capital Partners – by submitting an altered bank statement to support a loan application for $454,750.
The altered statement contained the header of KRR’s June 2021 account statement and the body/substance of C&E’s June 2021 account statement to make it appear that her account balance was $702,831.96 (when it was actually $15,339.12)!!!
DECEMBER 7, 2021
KR booked a 5-night, all inclusive, romantic stay at SECRETS St. Martin Resort and Spa for herself and her paramour for April 2022
(a month after Eric’s death)
!%#*!!!!!!!
JANUARY 12, 2022
KR deposited a $4,750 check into her bank account from the Gordon Law Group notated as a
retainer refund
FEBRUARY 23, 2022
KR texted her paramour:
“I have a crazy dream! You quit your job.. I divorce and come up with millions and millions.. we buy midway and live in the guest house and rent out the huge house as a big event center! $15,000 a day like they charge down the road. maybe $12,000 to stay competitive and we will just run the event ‘center’ as our daily job! And hang out every day? Raise some kids.. have a little farm? Deal?”
MARCH 2, 2022
(the day before she kills her husband)
9:12 AM - KR texted her paramour:
“I just can’t even believe this!! I want to celebrate with you!!! Well Friday.. when it’s officially closed recorded and we’re done. Love you love, love you! Thank you for always being my support, shoulder and rock. I need you. All the time. Some things I just could never do without your encouragement. You have no idea how much I appreciate you!!”
MARCH 3, 2022
KR
owed lenders approximately $3.1 million and her business account balance was -$5,734.55. She was days away from closing on an additional $3,259,850 in debt to purchase a partially completed property that would require millions of dollars to complete (millions of dollars she didn’t have). Eric’s estate was worth an estimated 5 million (his life was insured for over $2 million and his interest in C&E was covered by a $2 million buy-sell agreement).
Unbeknownst to KR, she wouldn’t be seeing any of his estate money.
MARCH 4, 2022
The medical examiner did not find THC in Eric’s blood or gastric fluid.
(KR told LE on scene that he’d taken a THC gummy and we all know from the “Walk the Dog” letter that she planned to argue that his THC gummies must’ve had fentanyl in them.)
The 911 recording captured KR counting as if she was performing chest compressions. She also told her best friend and wrote in a journal that she
“began CPR/compressions until the EMT arrived and they immediately took over”. However,
the first responder on scene said KR wasn’t performing CPR when they arrived and there was no evidence CPR had been attempted.
MID-MARCH 2022
KR and her paramour drove into the Uinta mountains, parked, and sat in KR’s vehicle to talk. She asked him if he’d killed anyone while serving in Iraq and then asked him how it made him feel.
MARCH 20, 2022
KR texted her paramour a link to the SECRETS webpage and asked:
“Are we there yet? Can’t wait!!!!!!!”
(17 days after her husband died.)
BY APRIL 16, 2022 (3 days after LE first informed KR that Eric died of a fentanyl overdose), KR accessed website articles with the following titles:
“Utah State Prison - Timpanogos Women’s Facility”
“What Happens to Deleted Messages?”
“Cause of Death Usually Does Not Impact Life Insurance Payment”
“How Do Police and Forensic Analysts Recover Deleted Data From Phones?”
“Signs of Being Under Federal Investigation”
MAY 8, 2023 (the day KR was arrested)
KR asked her mother if she or her brother had contacted WITNESS 4 (her fentanyl supplier and one time house cleaner) since her arrest to ask her
“What the hell?”
MAY 31, 2023
KR’s mom texted KR: “
[Witness 3] running his mouth”
(Witness 3 is the first person KR asked about finding her some drugs and who turned her down.)
I have seen some pretty DUMB criminals in my day, but KR is almost
unbelievably stupid.
She is toast.
