As the Kouri Richins trial heads into closing arguments, the biggest question is no longer what happened in court — it’s what the jury will do with it. In this episode, we break down the state’s circumstantial case charge by charge, from aggravated murder and attempted homicide to insurance fraud and forgery, and look at where the prosecution appears strong… and where real holes remain. We walk through the alleged fentanyl purchases, the Valentine’s Day sandwich incident, the suspicious insurance application, the missing hydrocodone bottle, the “Walk the Dog” letter, the ghostwritten grief book, the affair with Josh Grossman, and the financial pressure prosecutors say gave Kouri motive. But we also talk honestly about the places where the defense may have created reasonable doubt — especially by resting without calling a single witness and essentially telling the jury the state still hasn’t proven its case. With deliberations just ahead, this is a full look at the evidence, the unanswered questions, and the verdict possibilities now hanging over one of the most closely watched trials in Utah.
