A few days after Eric's death, Kouri drove to the mountains with her boyfriend. She asked if he had ever killed anyone. When he responded, she asked, "How did that make you feel?" Bloodworth says Kouri felt guilt after Eric's death. There were searches on Kouri's phone "Can copes uncover deleted messages iPhone" and other simliar searches about how to wipe an iphone, delete information from iPhone, etc.

imo, they are all low audio.
Thus far my observations:
KR looks terrified
Low audio (not unusual)
The state's opening - no energy no passion

When Kouri Richins knew police were investigating her, she wrote a children's book about how to deal with death. Bloodworth says state will prove Kouri murdered Eric and that Eric did not kill himself. Evidence will prove Kouri had means, motive and opportunity to murder Eric Richins. "Please consider the evidence that proves no one else did."
Kouri Richins richly values her appearance, affluence, and success, Bloodworth says. The prosecutor highlights two of the judge's instructions - stay focused on the evidence and take notes. "At the end of the trial, I'll stand back up here and in closing arguments, we will analyze the evidence, we will apply it to the elements the judge instructed you on and the state of Utah will ask you to find Kouri Darden Richins guilty."

Passion is for the end.
Right now, jurors want to know the facts.

Back to the morning of March 4, 2022. Eric Richins is placed in a body bag and wheeled out of his home for the last time. His boys are upstairs with their uncle. Kouri Richins has not yet told them Eric is dead, and she won't for a few hours, Bloodworth says. "On Kouri Richins phone, the following three images are accessed." He showed three memes: One of a guy wiping his nose with money, one that says "Idiots, idiots everywhere" and another that says. "I'm rich!" Prosecution is done with opening statement.

Defense opens with the 911 call. Unreal.
Juries aren't supposed to decide guilt until deliberations but the Defense is going to make that reaaaaaaaally hard.

Wonder if the 911 sounded authentic.... or fake?
@NateNewsNow
Kathryn Nester will give the defense's opening statement. She begins by playing the 911 call Kouri made. "My husband's not breathing. He's cold." She is crying and gives the address and her phone number to the dispatcher. Dispatcher asks what happened. Kouri says she doesn't know and is crying. Dispatcher tells her to take a deep breath. Kouri says she doesn't know what going on. She got in bed and "he's cold. He's cold." The dispatcher asks who is cold. She says her husband. Dispatcher asks if her husband is breathing. Kouri says no. Dispatcher asks Kouri if she can do CPR. Kouri says she doesn't know how. Dispatcher says she will tell her how. Kathryn begins, "Those are the sounds of a wife becoming a widow. Six and a half hour before that terrible phone call, Eric and Kouri Richins were in that same bedroom and they were celebrating. They were celebrating because Kouri was about to close on the biggest deal she had ever done - the Midway Mansion."

Kouri was just about to close on that multi million dollar manor, says the Defense. Sure she was.

Nester explains the property was falling apart and Kouri got a good deal on it. The plan was to flip it for so much that Kouri would make at least $2 million profit for her and all her investors. Nester says Eric was a part of it. He had been out to the property. They had other things to celebrate, Nester says. Eric's business was doing great. In 2020, he declared he made over $750,000. They also lived in a beautiful home, Nester says. They got married in the phone. Half was Kouri's, half was Eric's. They had a two-story garage filled with exotic animals. They had money for Eric to travel and hunt. Two weeks before he died, he was in Mexico hunting. They had four wheelers and snowmobiles. "They were very blessed. They had a lot to celebrate."

Eric and Kouri loved their kids, Nester says, and the boys adored their dad. Their marriage had been through some rough times. They had gone through a tough year and they went through marriage counseling. They decided to stick it out. Nester says one of Eric's closest friends who will say that Eric and Kouri were the happiest they had been. On March 3, Eric started sending exciting texts to Kouri saying they needed to have some celebratory shots. Nester shows text messages on the screen of the messages.

Eric and his gummies. Eric and his hunting. Eric and his shots.
Defense is full-court blaming the victim.

Wha huh? Defense confirms that, as of 10 pm, on the phone with his friend, was sober --
(Now showing his expired prescription bottle.)
Oh, there it is, they're going to blame him for his own death.
She is repulsive.

Kouri and Eric decided to have celebratory shots around 9 p.m. and Kouri made Moscow mules. They didn't finish the drinks. Around 9:30 p.m., Kouri went to sleep with her son who was having a nightmare. When police came to the house after he died, Kouri told the officers that Eric loved marijuana gummies. "He was a marijuana gummy eater," Nester says. She shows a photo showing marijuana gummy packages. Nester says after she left her little boy's room, Eric was talking to his friend Scott Wagner. When Scott spoke to Eric, he did not sound drunk, high, on fentanyl or anything else. "There was no sound of the wife or children in the background. He was alert, having a totally normal conversation with Scott. This was at 10 p.m." When Kouri left the bedroom, she left her phone in the charger next to the bed. Around 10:30 p.m., Kouri's phone is unlocked and moved just a few feet, Nester says. She says Eric was always checking Kouri's phone "probably for good reason."

When Eric died, his Apple watch was hanging "nice and neat." His phone was on the charger and he was in his underwear. "It would be pretty clear that Eric went to bed and died." There was an empty bottle of pills in the nightstand next to Eric's bed. The pill bottle expired in 2016. "That's going to become important later." After 3 a.m., Kouri wakes up and goes into the bedroom. The phone is unlocked and moves around the house. The phone stops being active, which is indicative of being in the charger. "A few minutes later, you hear the 911 call you just heard. That gives her enough time to crawl into the bed and touch her husband who is cold."
Eric had been dead for several hours and the medical examiner will testify to that, Nester says. Between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m., somewhere in that time, Eric Richins died. "Somewhere in that time, he ingested a fatal dose of fetantly. What you will never hear, after four years of investigation and five weeks of this trial, you will never hear how that fentanyl got inside of him because there is zero evidence of that." Eric's death certificate says the manner of his death is unknown, Nester says.
No fentanyl was found in Eric's bedroom, "but they didn't search for it," Nester says. Kouri says the cops never searched the house for fentanyl. All sorts of people were in the house and the cups were taken or tested. The day Eric died, police started interviewing Kouri "over and over and over again about what happened that night." Nester says Kouri's explanation about what happened that night never changed.

she is doing her job, we would all want a vigorous defense if we ever needed one, and as trial has just started KR is innocent, so her defense attorney is going to do all she can to try to keep it that way, and the prosecution are vigorously prosecuting her to take away her presumption of innocence,
Her attys are ethically required to provide her with the best defense they can
