Why Did Kouri Richins Go After Every Person Connected to This Case From Behind Bars?

The sentencing memo in the Kouri Richins case doesn’t just recommend life without parole. It documents a campaign. According to prosecutors, every person who stood between Kouri and what she wanted got a file opened on them — from her jail cell, through proxies, while she prepared a courtroom speech about love.

The detective who investigated her got a fake dating profile posted in his name. The sister-in-law raising her sons got false DCFS complaints and a hired attorney pursuing her criminal prosecution. Eric’s father got federal firearms charges pursued against him for protecting his dead son’s property. Eric’s sister got reported to police. Both prosecutors got unfounded bar complaints. According to the memo, not one action had substance. Every one had a target.

Then Kouri stood in court and told her boys: “Forgive those who turn their back on you.” And “Don’t hold hate.” And “People will always have a lot to say about lives they’ve never lived” — while, prosecutors say, she’d spent years manufacturing consequences for the people living theirs.

Tony Brueski puts every line from her speech next to the corresponding action from the memo and explains the psychology behind the mask.
