TL;DR Summary

Kouri Richins, a Utah mom who wrote a children's book about grieving after her husband died, has been denied bail before her murder trial. She is accused of fatally poisoning her husband with fentanyl and faces charges of criminal homicide, first-degree aggravated murder, and three counts of possessing a controlled substance with intent to distribute. Prosecutors claim that Richins planned for her husband's death, bought life insurance policies on his life, and stole money from his business. Richins' defense team filed a motion calling for her release, claiming there is no substantial evidence to support the charges.
