Kouri Richins Book "Are You With Me": Why Wives Who Kill Write Themselves as Victims

After Eric Richins died, Kouri wrote a children's book. "Are You With Me?" About a father who dies and becomes a firefly. She promoted it on morning television. Played the grieving widow.

Prosecutors say she killed him with fentanyl.

This is Part 4 of The Perfect Wife — examining the narcissist's need to control the narrative.

Nancy Crampton-Brophy understood this impulse. In 2011, she wrote "How to Murder Your Husband." An essay discussing methods. She wrote: "If the murder is supposed to set me free, I certainly don't want to spend any time in jail."

Seven years later, she shot her husband Daniel twice in the chest.

The essay was excluded from trial. The jury convicted her anyway.

She bought a gun with traceable methods. Drove her own minivan to the crime scene. Published her murder plan under her real name.

The narcissist can't stay invisible. Staying invisible means accepting someone else might be watching. The narcissist can't believe anyone else matters.

Kouri wrote herself as the healing mother. Nancy wrote herself as the murder expert. Both needed the spotlight. That need is what catches them.
