About this listen
The episode details the **high-profile trial and conviction of Corey Richens, a Utah mother and real estate entrepreneur accused of murdering her husband, Eric Richens, with a lethal dose of fentanyl in 2022. The prosecution argued that Corey committed the murder and related financial crimes for monetary gain as her real estate business collapsed, utilizing testimony from a housekeeper who allegedly sourced the drugs and forensic accountants who exposed her massive debts. Conversely, the defense attempted to create reasonable doubt by highlighting a lack of direct evidence regarding how the fentanyl was ingested and suggesting investigators coerced witnesses. Ultimately, the jury rejected the defense's arguments and found Corey guilty on all counts, including aggravated murder, attempted murder, and insurance fraud. Following emotional victim impact statements from Eric's family and a brief allocution from the defendant maintaining her innocence, the judge sentenced Corey Richens to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
