Closing arguments in trial of author charged with husband’s murder

Lawyers are set to deliver closing arguments in the trial of Kouri Richins, a Utah woman accused of murdering her husband, Eric Richins, after publishing a children’s book about grief. Prosecutors claim she administered a fatal dose of fentanyl in a cocktail and sought financial gain through insurance policies. Richins, who denies the charges, waived her right to testify, and her defense contends that the prosecution’s evidence is insufficient. The trial’s outcome could lead to a life sentence for aggravated murder.
