Kouri Richins: Inside the Marriage — Gaslighting, Control & the Slow Erosion of Eric Richins

Kouri Richins: Inside the Marriage — Gaslighting, Control & the Slow Erosion of Eric Richins

Prosecutors described a marriage where Eric Richins was systematically deceived — financially, emotionally, and ultimately fatally. But the machinery behind that kind of sustained deception doesn't switch on all at once. It builds slowly, over years, in ways the person experiencing it can feel but often can't name.

Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke to examine what was likely happening inside the Richins marriage during the years before Eric's death — through the lens of narcissistic and borderline relationship dynamics. What coercive control looks like without bruises. How trauma bonding keeps a targeted partner attached. Why gaslighting is so effective it can make someone doubt what they've seen with their own eyes.

If you've followed this case closely and wanted someone to explain the psychology — not just the facts — this is that conversation.
