What happens when the woman who vowed to love you becomes the person who ends your life? On the night of March 4, 2022, Eric Richins — a devoted father of three and beloved husband — died after drinking a cocktail laced with fentanyl in his own home. He was 39 years old. His wife, Kouri Richins, called 911. She cried at his funeral. And then, almost a year later, she published a children's grief book to help their three young sons cope with the loss of their father. But investigators weren't convinced her grief was real. In March 2026, a Utah jury deliberated for less than three hours before finding Kouri Richins guilty of first-degree aggravated murder, attempted aggravated murder, insurance fraud, and forgery. She now faces 25 years to life in prison without parole. The Perfect Family is a factual, in-depth account of one of Utah's most shocking criminal cases — drawing entirely from court records, trial testimony, public documents, and verified media reports. It examines the warning signs no one saw, the investigation that unraveled a carefully constructed lie, and the three young boys now in the care of their father's family. This is the story of a family that looked perfect from the outside — and what was hiding behind closed doors.
