Kouri Richins Googled 'luxury prisons for the rich' after allegedly murdering husband

The Moscow Mule 'killer' who wrote a book for children about coping with grief after her husband's death reportedly googled 'luxury prisons for the rich' after his murder. 

Prosecutors say Kouri Richins' search history from after her husband Eric Richins' died reveals some shocking insights about her potential involvement in the death. 

Kouri, 33, Googled 'Is naloxone similar to heroin, 'What is considered non-natural manner of death,' and 'Kouri Richins Kamas net worth,' according to ABC 4.

The mom of three also searched if police can see deleted texts, if cops can force you to take a lie-detector test, and how long life insurance payouts take. 

Bizarrely, Richins also searched to find out how to commission someone to write a book, suggesting that her now-infamous tome Are You With Me? may have been ghost-written. 

Eric, 39, died of a fentanyl overdose on March 4, 2022 and officials said he had five times the lethal amount in his system when he died. 

Kouri is facing charges of criminal homicide and aggravated murder.

According to the local news outlet, Kouri allegedly used her personal devices to access an article titled, 'Signs of Being Under Federal Investigation.' 

Another article with the headline, 'Delay in Claim Payment for Death Certificate with Pending Cause of Death,' was in the woman's browser history. 

This last article connects to other financial documents previously released, such as her seeking to claim at least $2 million following his death. 

Other less-sinister search inquiries included 'how to undo microblading,' 'what kind of doctor was dr. pepper,' and 'Lil Nas X married.' 

The mom also allegedly Googled 'how to hire someone to write a book for you.' 

After Eric's death, Kouri wrote a book titled 'Are You With Me?' - a picture book that aspires to help children cope after the death of a loved one. 

She at one point after Eric's death went on a local TV program to promote the book and said she wrote it alongside her three children after their father's death. 

Her search history also revealed that the woman had Googled several times whether her family had donated money to the Summit County Police Department. 

Summit County is home to Kamas, Utah where Kouri, Eric, and their children lived.

One attorney who spoke with ABC 4 said they don't believe the searches for sure indicate guilt on her behalf. 

Criminal Defense Attorney Clayton Simms said she may have been trying to understand the process and how long it could take to investigate his death.

Simms did however state that he doesn't believe the searches are 'insignificant.' 

'I think her state of mind, what she's looking at, what she's researching, could be important, but certainly, I think there's nothing there that indicates guilt,' he said. 

Just last week, DailyMail.com reported that Kouri is allegedly talking to documentary filmmakers from behind bars as she awaits trial. 

The Summit County district attorney's office asked a judge for a gag order in the case of Kouri to bar those involved from talking with the media. 

Prosecutors claim at least four documentary teams in North America and Europe who have expressed interest in making a documentary about the case.

Third District Court Judge Richard Mrazik on Friday denied the request.

Kouri and her husband had been arguing about her plans to purchase and flip a 10-acre $2 million home in the days before he was found dead at their Utah home last March, according to court documents.

Prosecutors say Eric found out that his wife had taken out a $250,000 home equity line of credit and spent it, withdrawn $100,000 from his bank accounts, and spent more than $30,000 on his credit cards. 

Kouri also stole about $134,000 from her husband's business meant for tax payments, the documents state.

Prosecutors say that Kouri poisoned Eric with a lethal amount of the drug to get money from his life insurance. 

Authorities say prior to his death, Kouri changed Eric's joint life insurance policy, which he shared with his business partner Cody Wright, so that she was the only beneficiary.

But when the insurance company told the partners, who own the business C&E Stone Masonry, of the change, they were able to change it back.

A warrant states that he did this without telling his wife because he was scared she might 'kill him for the money'.

In the aftermath of his death, an unnamed acquaintance came forward to reveal he sold Kouri the fentanyl.

After he died, Kouri claimed he had an addiction to pain medicine in high school but there were no substance abuse issues since. 

Friends and family told police said they hadn't any idea of Eric being addicted to any form of medicine, and officers did not find any pain killers in the family home. 

Kouri's next hearing is scheduled for Monday, June 12.
