I appreciate how deliberate, slow and steady Mr. Bloodworth is in his delivery. No drama, no theatrics.

JMO

He's great. He's reactions are priceless too.

I was afk, I can't believe Josh actually showed up to testify. Kouri seems super interested in his testimony, she keeps darting her eyes between him and the screen at defense table.

I thought so as well. She's invested in him?

 

[aamillaa]

talking about drugs at chilis with her affair partner while her three kids are at home and her husband is making sure she’s taken care of if he dies while suspecting she’s trying to kill him.

What a peach.

 

[Megnut]

OMG is she feeling him out for narcotics????

2:38 p.m. Bloodworth moves to admit text messages from Nov. 29, 2021. Grossman writes, “Just be straight babe. My head hurts.” They go back and forth talking about business, Kouri growing up scrubbing rich people’s toilets and other things.

IN COURT: Grossman asks Judge Mrazik for a glass for water.

He's reading the messages; not really reading them, mostly looking away every few seconds.

On the live stream you're seeing the texts...

notice she brought up drugs into their conversation in January 2022. Her brain was already thinking of drugging ER and she was trying to figure out if her boyfriend knew about drug culture or maybe had hookups JMO

January 9, 2022 - Text exchange being shown to jury now (as many of you have noted on X, NOT being read aloud).

Kouri asked Grossman if he's used any other drug (other than weed). He replied they already had this talk.

Kouri says she hasn't used any other drugs and that prescriptions were "not her thing."

Next text thread being shown to Grossman and Richins' defense team before being admitted into court/shown to jury.

Hahahahaha

Do you understand the difference between what's true and what is untrue?
Yes
Do you swear to tell the truth under the pains and pentalites of perjury?
Yes

When the judge sent the jury out for the above colloquey, reader, it was at that precise moment that Grossman understood that he was in for a judicial spanking if he didn't behave himself.

2:42 p.m. Grossman asks the judge for some water. Bloodworth wants to admit text messages from Jan. 9, 2022. Kouri asks him if he’s ever done drugs except smoke weed. Grossman responds that they have already had this conversation. Kouri says no they haven’t – she would remember. Grossman says they have had the conversation more than once. He says he has done other things. “Not all of them.” Then he asks Kouri, “Are you?” Kouri says she’s starting a new series called Dopesick and it made her think of it. Kouri says she hasn’t used other drugs. She has a cabinet full of prescriptions but they aren’t her thing. They go back and forth about prescription drugs and she says they are having steak and mashed potatoes for dinner. Grossman says he’s having Mickey D’s but would want to be with her in her kitchen.

Valentine's day 2022 exchange admitted to evidence

they text back n forth (barf) On my way, love you, blah blah blah wanna be one of my valentines? blah blah

Help! Have lost the link

 

[aamillaa]

Defense is going to have to tread carefully on cross (spoiler: they won’t)

I’m sure the jury is feeling bad for this guy and all his love texts getting swept up in this mess. If defense pushes too hard, they’re just going to make them detest KR more for her continuous wake of destruction

MOO

"I am in love with you. I hope that's ok. I can't change it," Grossman to Kouri Richins.

2:52 p.m. Another text exchange from Feb. 15. Kouri and Grossman are talking about a business acquaintance. Kouri asks about him telling the person that he’s in love with Kouri. She asks if that’s what he really said – “like in LOVE with me?” He responds, “Yes, in love with YOU!”


2:48 p.m. Bloodworth brings in a Valentine’s Day 2022 text exchange. Kouri says she will call him on the way down. Later she says she is leaving the school in Kamas and headed down. Grossman likes the message and asks if it’s an hour long ride. She says yep. Kouri says she loves him and wanna be one of my valentines. “I can take a no, that’s okay.” Grossman responds that his heart is smiling and when those three words come from her, it’s very unique. “Your love reminds me of how much God loves me!” He wouldn’t trade his love for a million years.
