Episode Title: Kouri Richins Trial: The PI Who Cracked the Case (Part 1)

Kouri Richins was convicted of murdering her husband, Eric, with five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in a Moscow Mule she made for him. But while the world was focused on her children’s book about grief, Tyrella was focused on the three weeks of absolute courtroom chaos that led to the verdict.

In Part 1 of our "Best of the Trial" series, we aren’t just rehashing the timeline—we’re talking about the witnesses who actually made the case. From a Private Investigator with a GoPro and a fused neck who became the defense's worst nightmare, to the heartbreaking testimony of a best friend who realized she was actually a target.

  • The Quick Reset: The Moscow Mule, the $2 million life insurance policy, and the book that started it all.

  • Todd Gabler, PI: Why a man with 34 years of defense experience ended up being the State’s star witness.

  • The "Sexting" Cross: How the defense tried to smear Eric Richins, and why it completely backfired.

  • The Forensic Accountant: Breaking down the -$1.6 million net worth and the "death exit ramp."

  • Chelsea Barney: The heavy cost of a 20-year friendship with a fraudster.

Note: Part 2 is available now! We’re diving into the boyfriend’s bizarre "oath moment" and the drug chain that sealed Kouri’s fate.
