Eric Richins

unknown United States

Eric Richins was a 39-year-old businessman and devoted family man who was married to Kouri Richins for nine years before his untimely death in March 2022. Described as an avid outdoorsman and dedicated to his family's cattle ranch and masonry business, Eric reportedly feared for his life in the months leading up to his death, after his wife allegedly attempted to poison him. His death, which was attributed to a lethal dose of fentanyl, has led to serious criminal charges against Kouri, as investigators believe financial motives tied to life insurance policies were behind his murder.
