Summary

Correspondent Natalie Morales and Producer Betsy Shuller dig into the headline-grabbing case of Utah mother, Kouri Richins, who wrote a book to help her children cope with the death of their father, Eric, and was later charged with murder. They discuss the six life insurance policies that Eric had, the 20,000 square foot mansion Kouri purchased just after his death, and the potentially incriminating handwritten letter found in her jail cell.
