Utah mom who wrote a children’s book on grief after following her husband’s death, now charged with murdering him

Kouri Richins garnered praise and attention last year after writing a children’s book about her husband’s death that was intended to help children process grief. Now, she’s become the villain of her own story, after she was charged with murdering said husband. According to reports, autopsy and a toxicology report found that Eric Richins died from a fentanyl overdose, according to the probable cause statement. The medical examiner said that he had five times the lethal dosage of fentanyl in his system and that it was “illicit” fentanyl and not medical-grade. It is also believed he ingested the drugs orally.
