S2 E25: Woman Kills Husband Then Wrote Kids Book about Grief: Case of Eric Richins

The children's book “Are you with me” was a book published on March 7th 2023, written by Kouri Richins. The 42-page book talks to specifically children who have lost loved ones and how to cope with it. 
Now at first glance, this book looks perfect for children struggling with grief. Kids who experience death should learn how to cope with the pain in healthy ways and a book like this would be a perfect way to help. But the backstory on how and why this book was created is way darker than what meets the surface. The author, Kouri Richins, had murdered her husband Eric, whom she shared 3 young boys with a year prior. And shortly after murdering her husband she decided to write a book about grief for her kids to cope with their dead father, that she murdered. This story is about an evil woman named Kouri Richins who nearly got away with her crimes for a whole year before being caught. And police would later find that not only was the motive for her crimes narsscistic and selfish, but this hadn’t even been the first, nor the second time, Kouri tried murdering Eric.
