Kouri Richins é condenada à prisão perpétua sem possibilidade de liberdade condicional

A mãe de Utah, Kouri Richins, recebeu uma sentença de prisão perpétua sem direito a condicional na quarta-feira pelo assassinato de seu marido com uma bebida misturada com fentanil em 2022. A sentença foi proferida no que seria o aniversário de 44 anos de Eric Richins.

Um juiz do tribunal distrital de Utah proferiu a sentença após a condenação de Richins em março por acusações que incluem homicídio qualificado, tentativa de homicídio, fraude de seguro e falsificação. Os promotores afirmaram que ela serviu ao marido um coquetel Moscow Mule contendo quase cinco vezes uma dose letal de fentanil em sua casa, perto de Park City. O juiz a descreveu como perigosa demais para ser colocada em liberdade e apontou que o motivo foi o ganho financeiro proveniente de apólices de seguro e de um negócio imobiliário.
