Why Did Kouri Richins Use Her Sentencing to Tell Her Kids the Murder Was a Lie?
She could have expressed remorse. She could have asked for mercy. She could have addressed even one thing her children described — the locked rooms, the dead animals, the fear that she'd come for them if released. Instead, Kouri Richins used forty-five minutes of courtroom time to tell her sons that the murder of their father is "an absolute lie" and that they've been "influenced" into believing it happened. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott examines the speech on True Crime Today. The repeated instruction to "be like your dad." The simultaneous admission of infidelity and the claim that "our love never failed." The request for her children to ask their caregivers for her letters. The jury dismissed as "eight strangers." And the final line — never apologize for something you didn't do — delivered from the defense table in a jail uniform as coaching for three boys who may carry those words for decades. Shavaun explains what the speech reveals, what it does to the children it was aimed at, and why the private messages tell a different story than the public tears.
