Summary
Brad Bloodworth, Deputy County Attorney with the Summit County Attorney's Office takes center stage in the Kouri Richins trial.
Kouri Richins stands accused of poisoning her husband Eric Richins with a lethal dose of fentanyl in March 2022—allegedly to collect on a $1.9 million life insurance policy she secretly increased just weeks before his death. What prosecutors describe as a calculated murder-for-profit scheme, the defense calls a tragic accident involving a man who, they claim, had a hidden drug problem.
This is gavel-to-gavel coverage of one of the most closely watched trials in Utah history. A children's book author. A grieving widow who wrote about "heaven" for kids while allegedly researching untraceable poisons. A husband who may have been killed in his own bed.
Hidden Killers brings you complete trial coverage with expert analysis—no sensationalism, just the facts as they unfold.
