Kotrodimos says there were searches on Kouri's phone for articles about what happens to deleted messages, and how forensic analysts recover data from phones.

The searches found on Kouri Richins' iPhone include the phrases, "Luxury prisons for the rich in America" and "How to permanently delete information from an iPhone remotely."
Kotrodimos says he also analyzed Eric Richins' phone. He says last use was about 9:58pm on March 3, 2022.
Defense attorney presses Kotrodimos and asks about alleged deletion -- isn't it true he can only say the data was "missing?" Correct, he says. Attorney also asks about the movement of Kouri's phone.

She wrote a check to “CL” !!!
…sorry but if you are too lazy to get some murdering cash ahead of the “deed”you involve others in ..you should sit it out behind bars.

That's the end of testimony for that witness. Next up is Brooke Karrington, a financial forensics expert.
Karrington says her firm was retained by the Summit County Attorney's Office a few weeks ago for the #KouriRichins case.
Karrington says she looked at documents pertaining to #KouriRichins buying and selling homes through her real estate company.
Prosecutor shows the court a timeline prepared by Karrington of properties acquired by #KouriRichins. Karrington says she identified 2 properties in 2019, including one they were living in (and on which a HELOC was taken out).

Trust deeds totaled roughly $471,000 in 2019, Karrington says. That jumped to over $2 million on 5 properties in 2020, and $6,260,458 on 13 properties in 2021. Karrington says business seemed to be growing. "Sometimes that is problematic."
Karrington says growth too quickly or too robustly is "challenging for a business."

I love this witness. I started a chronology of her business deals and got lost in the weeds.
Karrington says at the end of 2021, #KouriRichins was obligated for over $4 million on the properties she owned.
How much debt was #KouriRichins servicing at end of 2021? In December alone, there were 94 payments totaling $252,000, Karrington says.
Karrington says one account had sued #KouriRichins in December 2021. Karrington also says several payments during that month did not clear the bank due to insufficient funds.
Re: that lawsuit, which was out of New York, Karrington says #KouriRichins used $87,000 in receivables (potential revenue) and was borrowing $60,000 against that. Complaint says #KouriRichins made $21k in payments and then defaulted.

The lawsuit she's talked about is the Green Grass one I posted about upthread.
Karrington is painting a picture of #KouriRichins being short of cash as her accounts and lines of credit were exceeded or tapped out.
Judge moves prosecutor on from accounts to a new topic - life insurance. Karrington says there were multiple policies on Eric. Karrington says #KouriRichins got $1.3 million in payouts on life insurance.
