This is Hidden Killers Live with Tony Brewski and Robin Drey.

Let's go wider because this case isn't just about Corey Richards and Eric Richens.

It raises questions about how this kind of crime gets detected, how juries are supposed to weigh evidence when there's nothing definitive to point to and whether the story the

public has been following for three years is even the same story that the jury is being asked

to decide. Eric apparently suspected something was wrong. His friends knew the marriage was in

trouble. His sister hired a private investigator. He'd already quietly met with a divorce attorney, and he still ended up dead. Let's talk about this a little bit, not necessarily about what's going on in the court, because a lot of people are going to look at this case, and this is kind of just more of opinion, more of a conjecture type question. And I'm going to go to you first, Bob, and I want to get from you, Robin, too.

The question I think a lot of the jury is going to be looking at in this whole thing is,

why didn't you all just get divorced?

Why don't we just go there?

How did it get this bad that one is literally fearing for their life, having to set things up legally

in case I get murdered by my spouse.

My funds and my money goes over here.

I mean, if you're already in that mode and you're fearing for your life, a lot of folks who've

never been in that situation will say, why didn't you just leave?

I mean, if you're in the situation, you can speak to it differently.

But it's complicated.

It's emotional.

It's a mess, especially when you got three kids involved.

But, Bob, I mean, how would you answer that question if, you know, a juror is, you're

having that question with a juror at a coffee shop after all this and they're just going,

why didn't they just leave?

What the hell are they thinking?
