Grief book author’s murder charge tangled in estate dispute
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Court documents show that a children’s book author who prosecutors say killed her husband has been battling with his relatives over the family estate since his death last year. Kouri Richins wrote a children’s book about dealing with grief after her husband died last year. She was arrested and charged this week with killing her husband by spiking his drink with fentanyl. Prosecutors say she called authorities hours later to report him as being unresponsive. The charges come months after Richins did a local media tour to promote a self-published book she said she wrote to help children grieve.
