I feel sorry for her. It's tough when you repeatedly poison someone and then you're treated like a criminal.
😢
😭
😅
Right?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Could be home with your husband and boys, but you choose this instead. Love of money before the love of family.
And even more egregious is they had money…
Exactly !!!
I can't imagine what she wanted that she didn't already have. This case is baffling!
the days of nail and feet work (with wine) are over, gray (hair) days coming too.
I just hope the defense doesn’t try to pull that she’s insane or something. It sounds like at one point she was prescribed medication for schizophrenia. Justice for Eric and his boys and family!
This judge seems very kind... i hope he isnt *too* kind.
He's a professional! Don't worry, he'll do it all by the book kuz he doesn't want his hard work overturned on appeal! And he's cute!!
@@teresathayn5170yes!
I hope he’s perfectly kind and holds murderers accountable for what they did. That’s not an unkind thing to do.
He is a professional. Period. Also very neutral, and that is the job of a judge to be rational, fair, unbiased and neutral.
Yea I didn't think it was appropriate for him to wish her the best of luck. I think it shows bias
I think the tears are real but they are for her. They aren't for her husband , children or family members. Reality is finally setting in about her cushy, comfortable life is over. She had a great life and she let selfishness and greed steal that away.
@veronica2082 You're exactly right.
💯
She sure was crying, but because she knows her new life is those 4 walls.
Yeah, she's throwing herself a pity party! She's a horrible person!! SMDH!
@@yesseniaayala2664She was hoping on that bail, her last taste of freedom even if for a short time til trial, now it dawns on her she’ll be locked up for decades
She made the decision and took action to murder her husband, to ruin not only her life but also her three children. My heart goes out to the three young children and pray their father's families will protect and help them from this shocking and terrible situation. I hope they are staying with their father's families and they can have custody of them.
I see now she's putting on a show. Coming in crying. When she really don't even care. Hoping this will get her out of trouble. Lock the B$%÷> up .
Me too!!
I think this is an allegation, no. Not proven guility.
@@colleenshea2293 She had already tried to poison him in the past, by putting fentanyl in his sandwhich, and just look at all of the other other things (insurance policies taken out, without him knowing) that are also Red Flags. If she did not poison him, then who did? I think she is pure evil. Either that, or just incredibly stupid. She had a great life. The American Dream, And, she ruined it, with Greed. Also leaving her 3 children without a father, and now without any parents at all.
That Right.
A dose of her OWN DOING. She is now realizing that she will be in PRISON FOR LIFE ! GOOD FOR HER - SHE WILL NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY
Kouri is going down. We're all here for it!
She needs a new lawyer!
I'm totally here for it!! I love watching that B cry!!! 🐊🐊🐊 tears!!
Her evil looking lawyer cannot get her out of what she did.
@@amydoran9987how does she look evil?
I think her lawyer isn’t shabby. Very chic and sophisticated here. She’s doing a needed job and hopefully she will just present the facts an not get manipulative and shouty.
Emotional because she's busted and they said they may file more charges against her
She’s more emotional now that she’s being held accountable then when she discussed her book concerning her dead husband. Telling !!!
It's true that book if it was real emotions behind supposed to bring all those tears
I couldn't believe she really thought she was going home at the last hearing!! After everything she's done?!? Cray cray!
She paid a ghost writer and a ghost artist! The only part she came up with was the general idea! Fraud!!
She is crying because no more freedom for her bye bye now ur new home is the prison for women
Yeah true definitely a pure sociopath ... if she has any sensibility, she will accept any plea deal she can get given the preponderance of evidence
She wants to go home. Should've thought of that before poisoning an innocent man
Crying for real today? It’s definitely for herself and not for her Murdering actions 🥺
tears of guilt
Maybe she got her buns whooped in jail? Scared to go back in
I’m watching on a small cracked phone. Were there actually real tears? I only saw puffy eyes and some heavy mouth breathing due to nose congestion. Just curious. Of course, she’s attention seeking to grab sympathy.
@@LesPaul3399it’s not tears of guilt. It’s tears of her knowing she is done for and her freedom is gone she’s not feeling guilty she has no empathy.
Thinking the same thing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
she wasn’t crying like that when she was listening to her husband autopsy but now she is.
Based on what was happening during that hearing, her attorney was asking for 60 days time to prepare & go through discovery before scheduling the pretrial hearing.
Kouri was previously saying “I can’t do it..” so logically one could infer that she’s crying because she’s going to be locked up for a while before the case even goes to trial.
She’s crying because the county jail just doesn’t stack up to the “jails for the rich” that she googled
I wonder if she thinks there's a good chance that she'll be found not guilty.
Thank you that was helpful 😊
Right, imagine her actual shock at how a real jail is. It's probably not that bad in Utah as compared to somewhere like I'm from, like Memphis. She should be thankful she is not at Shelby County jail. She really is delusional.
It’s actually the nicest prison in the entire state lol
Did she actually google about jails?? 😳
Did you hear the prosecution say "more evidence and/or charges are forthcoming"?? Wow; its overwhelming what she's done already - wonder what more surprises we will see? Wonder why shes crying today? She couldn't shed a tear last time.
She was downright smug last time, trying to cry, but it was more like a smirk.
The financial crimes alone are astounding. Bank, wire & check fraud, forging federal documents & insurance fraud are just a few that comes to mind.
Two previous poisoning attempts. And....all those life polices on all three of her children? Remember, despite all her myriad financial crimes, she was still hugely in debt.
But if she hasn't been charged with wire fraud, financial fraud, and insurance fraud, those are blooming well stamped. addressed and in the fecking post.
They’ve had a year already, what is taking them so long to find a charge, and bring evidence. If she is charged with murder and they have her with evidence then move it along and present it to the jury already.
That’s exactly why. More evidence against her. I believe it’s sinking in.
The moment her attorney told her “ it’s not looking good for you ..”
She's sad because she just found out she's staying locked up through the whole summer. I wouldn't be surprised if she thought she'd get out to continue her book tour.
Not
She paid a ghost writer and a ghost artist to do the book! Her only input was the general idea. Honestly? I don't think she's ever going to walk free ever again! She's a psycho!!
she knows she's done
Killed a perfectly good, decent, and productive man who loved his kids and wife. Repeatedly tried to poison him 3 times and succeeded on the 3rd attempt. These were the KNOWN attempts, it could have been more. She may have done this before too, to others. Took away her children's father, and now they will lose their mother too. All for what? Making a quick buck flipping houses? You had everything, Kouri. And you destroyed it all. Cry your tears now as your crime cannot be undone.
I keep asking the same question. What was the point?
Disgusting, senseless and heartless murder that leaves the children without parents. Death penalty.
You know what I find to be even more evil then what she did? The drug dealers who deal fentanyl (and the one who sold her the fentanyl), and there is no death penalty for drug dealers who deal drugs that cause the deaths of who knows how many people that they gave fentanyl too. But yeah, what she did was extremely wicked and evil. I still hate the drug dealers just as much though, because I believe they understand how dangerous fentanyl is.
@@justinbryson352 Nobody forces you or whomever to buy these drugs. Jeez!
those neon yellow pumps are a crime here as well
I was just noticing the same. Cute, but they do not look good with those 2 different shades of blue that shes wearing. 😬 Also, not sure id wear them to court... maybe a night out or day out.
She quite tall anyway, does she really need such a high heel in yellow and wearing them to court of all places 😳🙄😂
I thought they added a cute pop of color🤣🤣🤣
Dressing for the judge?
😂
That lawyer is utterly useless!! She doesn’t have a chance!
She must have read all of the comments on her last appearance and her single fake tear. She turned up the fake emotions for this one 🙄🙄🙄
Still no obvious tears, red or runny nose, wrinkling between the eyes, red eyes, etc., etc. You can tell when someone is truly crying and this is not it. She’s worse at fake crying than Alex Murdaugh.
she even punched his sister after she killed him shes pure evil
The thing with killers for money they don't see the severity of their consequences because they think, they will NEVER get caught and they've out smart detectives... she's only crying because she got caught.
Ms Lazaro has got a serious crush on the judge. She’s all over the place trying to get his attention
So obvious I don’t think the jury gonna like her😂
She's working hard at the emotion thing. She just can't seem to get any actual tears flowing.
Kuz she's a cold blooded killer at heart! Trust me!!
I think she did have real tears, they were for her though. I think the reality is starting to hit her.
@@jenniealtieri1471agree!!
If she isn't faking the emotion lol, then the realization of what the rest of her life is gonna look like has finally set it in. How she thought she was gonna get away with this is mind boggling.
Exactly!🇿🇦👍
just write a kids book, hopefully off the shelves
She has probably gotten away with stuff her whole life & has never been held accountable. I know people like that. Everyone is a means to an end in their world. They think they are so much smarter than everyone else as well & never even consider there might actually be consequences to their terrible actions. It doesn't make sense to you because you are not an ish person who takes advantage of others. People like her do not have the ability to feel empathy or sympathy except for themselves.
Like that girl who killed her pregnant friend and took the baby. Like how do they think their plan will work?
They said she googled luxury prisons .. idk how true that is.
This is actually VERY telling, because here you see her actually crying--red, watery eyes, red nose, etc--yet she's holding her head up high and not hiding it. At the other hearing, when the detectives were being questioned on some really graphic details regarding her husband's death, there was NONE of this; instead, she faked emotion here and there, and when she did, she always put her head down and covered her eyes with her fingers and a tissue. But there was no redness to her face or eyes, and no tears. She is so obviously a self-centered, cold-blooded killer who only cares about herself!
Agreed.
Oh yeah…you nailed it
Crying only for herself.
Can’t rub her eyes with a tissue this time, because she is handcuffed. Maybe the pencil will. 😮 What an evil mine?
Rule number 1: NEVER talk to the cops. EVER.
The girl starts acting soon as she walks in the room. I can read her like a book. I believe in your right to a fair trial and to defend yourself. But this girl is a type that is easily recognized.
I love her furtive glance over at the camera the moment she sat down. She’s completely full of crap.
I 👍 agree. It's annoying how the judge is always saying "best of luck to you Ms Richins". No, don't wish her luck.
read her like a book - appropriate in this case. Those books of hers , worth a penny or $100? tough to know these days.
If they cry they are acting. If they don't the are callous. No need for your immature input. She is going straight to jail regardless of her tears.
How can she Live with her Self! Evil 👹
Attorney laughs and smiles seems to love attention and more focused on herself than her client
That’s exactly what I thought. Very unprofessional.
For bing cordial with the court? 😂
Agreed! Typical girl attorney, all about themselves. I would fire her asap!
did you see her shoes :D
I get the feeling this attorney feels like this case is her “star moment.” The yellow stilettos are a bit much. She seems very conscious of how she looks, stands at the podium, etc. Camille Vasquez you are not, lol
That's right keep it moving right into the slammer..don't feel bad for this witch that tried a few times to kill her husband, but finally succeeded.. It's really a horrible story. She deserves the worst punishment.
Would you ever forgive her?
She manages to smile at the judge when he addresses her….🙄
Her tears are only for herself. Not her kids nor her husband. How in the world did she think she could get away with this??!! 😤Bet she regrets it now...
I don’t have no sympathy for this heartless woman. She deserves every bad thing that comes in her way.
especially as she went as far as to monetize his death with a picture book (aimed at children and particularly their own no less). I fully agree with you
That’s a double negative. You don’t have any sympathy.
Exactly.
This attorney sounds really casual. “Ummmm… yeah…ummmm…. I think” , it’s painful to hear.
There’s that old saying, “if you can’t do the time, don’t commit the crime”.. 😂
What a cruel cruel monster to murder someone this way 😢 then write a book for children on how to cope with grief. Unbelievable.
About that infamous book (which to me really sets this case apart from any other I've ever seen). I haven't read it, but I ''read'' it mainly as a coping mechanism for herself (which is a neutral statement on my part), as well as a vehicle for gaining sympathy from her children, & the general public. The reason I say this, as well as the element that really got me about it, is the title : ''Are YOU with me?'' As if pleading for her sons and the public to side with her, in this giant mess that she orchestrated.
Is it me or is Kouri’s attorney and the judge being flirtatious with one another?
I thought the same thing at the last appearance... totally inappropriate
True, she probably will try to make a name for herself as the case gets bigger. Her constant fixing shirt drives me crazy and the flirtatious laugh OMG
What surprises me is to hear women cutting women down…….it NEVER ends. Look at her hair, look at her clothes, her shoes, etc. Instead of being in awe, or proud that in fact a WOMAN, passed the Bar, is a lawyer qualified to defend a client in a murder investigation and yet she’s criticized. 😒. It’s true, women (or a majority of them) would rather continue to see men paid more, and continue to be advanced than to see another women be recognized for her brain. (I’ll never get it and glad I don’t and even more glad I’m nothing like that as a woman!!!!). Rant over
@@EmmaDee my criticism was that she was being over flirtatious with the judge ... and it seems I wasn't the only person who thought this. I watched the Depp/Heard trial and have nothing but admiration for Camille Vazquez and the way she handled herself throughout that whole trial.
@@EmmaDee I don't know about the wanting men to be paid more, but yes, I agree with you about how women pick apart other women. It's too bad really, like you said Why not be happy for another's success as well as their beauty? I personally love to not just see others thriving but complement women when they have on a pretty dress, or they have beautiful hair, and on and on. I don't know if women just don't realize how much they do this or how much more women could accomplish if we held each other up, family or strangers. It's too bad really. Kindness goes so far in human lives.
I wonder if her lawyer asked to have the mics turned off on their table, so to not have another ‘hot mic’ situation? Remember when she said she couldn't wait all those months in jail until the next trial? 😅
Is that really true? I thought it was a joke when someone else told me that. I listened really carefully at the end but didn’t hear anything.
Yup! She and her attorney heard she was being hated hard on UA-cam just like Amber Turd!
The crying is either from finding out she’s getting charged with more crimes, the realization that she isn’t getting bail and will be in jail for 60 days before next appearance, or she’s trying to make the judge feel sorry for her and grant her bail lol.
She might be that stupid to think the tears would prompt the Judge to grant her bail. She was stupid enough to leave paper trails and computer searches and drug connections on her phone.
Not sure about the choice of colors between her outfit and her shoes.
What an awful, weird case. So very unnecessary. The poor family of this wonderful father must be completely devastated and angry.
Man, 60 days until a preliminary hearing? Just lock the murderer up and throw away the key already. May her husband rest in peace. He didn’t deserve that at all.
She is locked up
Do away with the trial, is that what you're suggesting? Give your head a shake.
she really looks bad, i don't think she will do well in prison
Awe, she's such a victim!!!
Maybe not the victim, but she doesn't belong in jail before trial. She looks so precious and innocent.
@@lacenikks708she looks broken, and unable to go on. IMO.
Shes the. Total losser
She's obviously a psycho!!!
@@jessieessex Well, her husband is worse than broken and unable to go on. She deserves the punishment she gets.
Her lawyer is so awkward 🥴
Maybe she could write herself a book about how to deal with the grief that comes from getting caught committing murder.
Why does the judge wish this murderer the best?????? That was a weird thing to say.
The judge says I wish you the best , are you kidding me !
the defense attorney needs to rethink her color blocking choices.
Agree. A ridiculous get up.
I’ll NEVER understand how an attorney representing the murderer can sleep at night.
If you were paid 30 000 a month to pay your bills you would too
That's their job. They don't take their job home.
You don't want to leave ve in a country where there is no due process. And as open and shut as this case appears to be, not all of them are. Never blame the defense attorney
If you were charged with murder or really with anything, you’d want an attorney. Luckily, it’s your constitutional right. Everyone deserves a fair trial, yes, even evil people. And they will usually be punished. Throwing people in prison automatically would be…dictatorship.
Everyone deserves a fair trial, that's the defending attorneys job to make sure that happens, guilty or not.
The killers lawyer got all dolled up today.
Woah 😳 kouri looks so ill and deprived of sleep. I bet she’s not eating. I don’t think she realised that jail is gunna b tough…she deserves it she shudda thought about that before she did what she did! Those poor kids are without a dad and now a mother
She a narcissist who never imagined she'd get caught! Boo freakin hoo!
She googled “luxury prisons for the rich in America,” so I think you're right. Jail is going to be tough. She shudda, coulda, woulda, but now it's too late.
How could she NOT have done it? If not her…than who?
Excellent point!
If not her then Eric took a pill himself, and it was one that had a potentially fatal overdose. The Drug Enforcement Agency stated that six out of ten street fentanyl pills contain a potentially lethal dose. Maybe the odds were not in his favor.
She knows the out look is grim. Karma knows her address.
She's upset only because she didn't get away with it.
She's not sorry, just sorry she got caught!
She is crying bc they have to push back the trial and so that means she has to rot in jail till then!! So happy that she realizes she is never leaving there ever again.
Her lawyer's outfit /look /demeanor is jarring
Kouri is heartbroken and devastated that she got caught.
Somehow, she comes walking in , handcuffed, holding a pencil, with no paper. 😂😂
The defendants attorney, the one with the yellow pumps on, sounds really stupid. All the “ums” and “I guess” are very annoying and make her sound very unsure and lacking confidence.
Just get a divorce instead of killing
You can tell from her face itself plus expressions alone that she is a sociopath, if not a psychopath. Everything she does physically around others is an act. She needs to be tested by a psychiatrist so it's on actual record so the world is warned.
Easy there, Jung.
@@cargopilotguy305based on her actions , she fits the DSM guidelines for anti social personality disorder . She’s a sociopath at the VERY least

Why is the Judge wishing her the best of luck?
Yellow pumps and a purple shirt, some one please tell her she's in a court room not in a local singles dive bar. She's got to be a public defender otherwise no one in their right mind would pay for that spectacle for the serious crimes she's accused of.
Ahw she is pretty. It is ok. Her job defending her client is going to be tough.
Why does it bother you what someone else wears?
I saw her questioning the detective. She is very good. Young, beautiful, intelligent, and a skilled attorney. She will go places, yellow high heels and all...
Yeah, v tacky
She is crying because she heard the evidence last time. Hate that but ya cant murder your husband 🤷🏻♀️
Why is she cuffed in court? I thought it was illegal for defendants to be cuffed in court because it biases the jury.
Will see when we see the jury
There is no jury in these hearings
There’s no jurors right now but, there’s plenty of defendants who are cuffed during trial. They’re hands are under the desk where they can’t be seen.
Remember Leticia Stauch trial…the judge threatened to cuff her during trial if she kept making gestures with her hands
I’m guessing she ain’t in a luxury prison 😂
People are getting stupider and more evil every day. It’s a shame that he couldn’t have gotten away when he knew she was trying to poison him. Very sad!
Those neon yellow heels. Really?!!
Realization seems to be sinking in....apparently she found out! No luxurious prisons exists
Those who act like the victim are usually the vilest.
Well said
She's not doing well at all. They must have found more damning evidence against her.
The prosecution says in the video that they have a lot more evidence to sort through.
Why is Kouri sad though, she got what she wanted. She got “rid” of her husband.
She’s only crying because her freedom has been taken away from her! Jail food and being locked up in a cage isn’t fun! She’s only thinking about herself!
She didn’t expect to get caught! Like all killers, they think they are the smartest person in the room! She is busy trying to be “small” in court.
Why is the lawyer smiling and laughing for, this is serious. She could be sociopathic herself. Lots of lawyers are.
Studies have been made about this topic and it turns out that lawyers are the #2 profession to employ psychopaths.
#1 profession for psychopaths are company CEO’s.
The media, cops and surgeons are some of the others; not sure of their order.
Number 10 are politicians.
Neon yellow heels....immediately fire these attorneys. That is a crime in and of itself.
😂😂😂😂😂 my thoughts exactly. If she can’t color coordinate her outfit she’s definitely not going to coordinate and plan her case well.
Is her attorney a Sorority Sister or something? First case/trial? Cause after hearing her deliver to the court gives me NO confidence. Homey is just sitting there. I bet $5 on an appeal based on ineffectual counsel.
Any takers?
"When Mommy Goes To Prison For Poisoning Daddy" - Kouri Richins' new best selling children's book
That defense attorney need to concentrate more on aggressively defending her client..
She’s more concerned with her looks
You hit the nail, I thought the same thing she's constantly preening and doesn't seem very rehearsed in the law. She stammers , she doesnt have a strong vocabulary.
Richin probably hired her cause of her looks. either way shell never walk out of that situation.
Her shoes had my whole focus. What I. The actual fck?! I feel like those stripper shoes are disrespectful to the court.
@@lealamb9713she’s actually a highly accomplished attorney. Google her. I was shocked because she doesn’t seem very confident or prepared.
Wow! Let me guess, you all have a law degree right?! Woman can be so bitter. She looks amazing, very professional, updated and I love how confident she looks. She is definitely a Boss lady and I love it.
Defense Attorney: You need to show remorse. Queue the tears. Rub your eyes hard before you walk in so they are red. And don't forget to squint. I'm going to wear my lemon chiffon stilettos.
she is probably thinking "but I am a woman and shouldn't be held accountable for my actions. this can't be happening"
I’m a woman & agree! I just read a reply to another comment above & rolled my eyes hard! 😂
She feels sorry for herself. She is sorry she got caught.
While it’s obvious Kouri is staying in jail/prison forever, it’s really considerate that the judge is making this case a priority since the defendant is in custody. I’m sure he’ll run a tight ship during trial.
So many people like her get emotional when they're held accountable. I wonder why?
✏️ 🤧 No tears; no tissue. MY favorite part is her shuffling in, awkwardly grasping a pencil. Who’s she fooling with that stage prop? Like she’s going to TAKE NOTES? Is that to give us the illusion that she can think smart thoughts and write real words? To dispel her image of being the stupidest-and meanest-person on earth, who actually had to PAY a GHOSTWRITER for that children’s book on grief she allegedly “wrote?”
Her lawyer is tall but also very unprofessional!!! I'd fire her asap!
There are no tears, she is not crying, she is just making faces and nose. I can do that as well. The problem is, I do cry with tears when I am emotional.
She's getting in practice for the jury she's another casey anthony 🤮
...and Jodi Arias.🤮
She's only appearing emotional because she knows she faces life behind bars for the rest of her life.
It's fine and appropriate for the judge to always be courteous to the accused but to wish her the 'best of luck" seemed a bit much. Would he say the same to a man accused of killing his wife, I wonder. A sociopath only cries for herself.
I was thinking the same thing
You guys and Eyes of an Officer are my favorite channels. Y’all kill it every time
She poisoned her husband with the "Michael Jackson stuff" and she wrote a children's book about dealing with grief. I still think that what she did was very cynical of her. Cynical in so many levels.
She actually poisoned him with a large dose of fentanyl
I still don’t understand that she thought she could get away with it without being caught. You’ve gotta have a will of steel to kill someone, let alone your own husband.
Why does she walk in with a pencil? A long, sharp one at that!
……and wished good luck, by the judge 🤷🏼♀️
Saw that too!!
She deserves a sentence commensurate with the crime committed.
