Presenting “Kouri Richins: The Children’s Author Who Killed Her Husband” from RedHanded Oct 08, 2026

Show notes

Today, we are sharing part one of a two-part series from the award-winning true crime podcast RedHanded, hosted by Suruthi Bala and Hannah Maguire. RedHanded is the UK's #1 True Crime podcast, covering everything from high-profile murders and cults to con artists and cultural catastrophes, always asking not just what happened, but why.

In part one, Suruthi and Hannah dive into the case of Kouri Richins, a Utah mother who published a children's book about grief after her husband Eric died in what was ruled an accidental overdose. Just a month after appearing on local TV to promote it, Kouri was arrested and charged with murdering Eric herself. Was she a grieving wife trying to rebuild her family's life, or a Black Widow who plotted to poison her husband for his money? Head over to RedHanded to catch part two, where Hannah and Suruthi pull apart the trial and discuss how Kouri unwittingly destroyed her own defence while trying to outwit the prosecution.
