Just over a week after prosecutors went into deep detail on allegations that a Utah mom of three murdered her husband by poisoning his Moscow Mule at home while simultaneously pursuing a new life with her lover, defendant Kouri Darden Richins has oddly decided to speak out about the pending matter, even as her lawyers are exiting the case.

Richins, 34, stands accused of murdering 39-year-old Eric Eugene Richins in March 2022 and subsequently going on the local news to talk about a book on grief that she claimed to write so her three sons could understand and cope with the sudden loss of their father.
