Kouri Richins: How She Used People, What It Did to a Family, and How She Got Here

Kouri Richins: How She Used People, What It Did to a Family, and How She Got Here

Most coverage of the Kouri Richins trial has focused on the evidence. This series focuses on the behavior — and brings in two of the most credentialed voices in behavioral science to work through what the evidence actually describes.

Tony Brueski sits down with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott and retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke for three complete conversations examining the psychological dimensions the courtroom record raises but can't fully answer on its own.

The first conversation examines the alleged pattern of exploitation across the full witness list — what it looks like to allegedly view every person in your life as a resource to be managed, how it sustains itself across years and relationships, and why the people inside it are almost always the last to see it. The second examines what it cost the Richins family to know something was wrong and spend years fighting to be taken seriously — the instinct, the helplessness, and the specific trauma of grief that is also confirmation. The third confronts the question nobody wants to sit with: where does someone like Kouri Richins come from, what does that history do to a person's decision-making and relationship with truth, and what are five children now inheriting from all of it?

Explicable isn't forgivable. But understanding how people end up here is the only tool anyone has for recognizing it before the damage is done.

Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
