This is our Week in Review of the Kouri Richins murder trial—and the prosecution's key witnesses are telling different stories under oath.

Carmen Lauber testified she bought fentanyl for Kouri Richins four times before Eric died. Robert Crozier—the man who allegedly supplied those drugs to Lauber—took the stand and said something different. He testified he only sold oxycodone, not fentanyl, because "everybody was scared of fentanyl" at the time. He claimed he was "detoxing and out of it" during his original statement to detectives. Lauber herself admitted confusion under cross-examination.

When your two central witnesses can't agree on what the drugs actually were, the prosecution has a problem.

Former FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke spent 21 years with the Bureau, including time as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. His career was built on reading people in high-stakes environments—separating truth from performance, assessing credibility under pressure. He examines what behavioral signals reveal whether a witness with credibility wounds is still telling core truth versus constructing a self-serving narrative. He also reads Kouri's sustained composure through five days of devastating testimony.

Defense attorney Bob Motta breaks down whether the prosecution can recover. The state played a recording of Kouri calling the medical examiner's office asking detailed questions about substances found in Eric's body. But Bob analyzes whether that shows consciousness of guilt—or exactly what you'd expect from a widow trying to understand her husband's death.

The most significant fact the jury has heard: the state's own former Chief Medical Examiner still lists Eric's manner of death as "undetermined." Not homicide. Four years later.

Over twenty witnesses called. Fentanyl in Eric's system established. Financial problems documented. Boyfriend confirmed. But the prosecution still hasn't proven how fentanyl got into Eric or that Kouri administered it.

Kouri Richins is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
