    Mar 5 2026
    *This episode was originally recorded live. Day 8 of the Kouri Richins trial delivered the moment everyone knew was coming — the paramour took the stand. In this episode, we break down the emotional testimony from Josh Grossman as jurors watched intimate text messages between him and Kouri play out on a courtroom screen, including declarations of love, dreams of a future together, and one chilling message sent the morning Eric Richins died. We walk through the texts, the tears on the witness stand, and what prosecutors appear to be building around motive. Plus, we hear from the paramour himself after he reached out to Hidden True Crime mid-livestream. Sponsors: For 50% off your order, head to ⁠https://DailyLook.com⁠ and use code HIDDEN.

  • $8 MILLION in Debt?! Forensic Accountant EXPOSES Kouri Richins’ Secret Finances | Day 7 Trial Recap
    Mar 5 2026
    In this episode, we break down one of the most technical — but potentially revealing — days of the Kouri Richins trial. Day 7 focused almost entirely on the finances, as a forensic accountant walked the jury through thousands of records showing mounting debt, bounced checks, payday lenders pulling daily payments, and what prosecutors say was a financial situation spiraling out of control in the months before Eric Richins’ death. We slow everything down and explain the complicated money trail step-by-step — from the HELOC and failed house flips to the Midway mansion deal, tax filings, and the $1.3 million in life insurance that was quickly spent after Eric died. And as we mark March 3rd — the night Eric likely died — we take a moment to remember the father of three at the center of this case before unpacking the testimony that prosecutors say points to motive.

  • Cell Data ANNIHILATES Defense as Drug Dealer's Story Shifts to Fentanyl | Kouri Richins Day 6 Recap
    Mar 3 2026
    Day six of the Kouri Richins trial was a digital deep dive — and it seriously challenged the defense’s accidental overdose narrative. In this episode, we unpack explosive Google searches about wiping iPhones, retrieving deleted texts, life insurance payouts, prisons, and FBI electronic analysis — alongside hundreds of deleted messages and app-based communications that vanished during the critical January–March 2022 window. We break down the minute-by-minute phone movement the night Eric died, the 87-minute Valentine’s Day gap on Eric’s device, and the cell tower data tying Carmen and Robert Crozier’s movements to key dates. Plus, we finally watch Crozier’s original police interview — and what he says there doesn’t entirely match his testimony on the stand. From forensic pathology with Dr. Erik Christensen to motive testimony about prenups and financial fear, today was layered, technical, and heavy. And when you zoom out? The digital breadcrumbs paint a picture the jury can’t easily ignore.

  • Courtroom Erupts: Dealer Turns on Carmen — Judge Cuts the Cameras | Kouri Richins Trial Day 5 Recap
    Mar 1 2026
    Day five of the Kouri Richins trial wasn’t about pills — it was about credibility, motive, and whether the state’s star witnesses are starting to unravel. In this episode, we break down the intense cross-examination of Carmen Lauber, whose timeline of alleged drug purchases shifted under pressure, and the stunning testimony of Robert Crozier, who flatly told the jury he never sold Carmen fentanyl — only oxycodone. From immunity deals and paused drug court to pricing arguments, conflicting affidavits, and whether detectives shaped key details over time, the math suddenly isn’t mathing. The prosecution tried to steady the ship on redirect, but with inconsistent memories, evolving statements, and a second dealer contradicting the fentanyl narrative, the courtroom energy shifted in a way that could change everything.

  • BOMBSHELL Testimony from Star Witness & Defense Fires Back! | Kouri Richins Trial Day 4 Full Recap
    Feb 27 2026
    Today began with measurements, missed vehicle searches, and questions about why key evidence only appeared after private investigator tips — but everything shifted when the witness the jury has been waiting for finally took the stand. In this episode, we break down continued cross-examination of crime scene tech Chelsea Gipson, including what wasn’t searched, what wasn’t tested, and why investigators returned to the home nearly ten times. Then we dive into the explosive testimony of Carmen Lauber — the woman the state says sourced the fentanyl. From immunity deals and deleted messages to alleged cash drops, Maverik meet-ups, and the “Michael Jackson stuff,” the jury heard detailed claims tying Kouri to multiple pill purchases. But the defense came hard on credibility — highlighting shifting memories, prior inconsistent statements, incentives to cooperate, and whether Carmen’s story evolved under pressure. We also address the unexpected juror sketching incident that led to someone being removed from the courtroom. Day four was messy, intense, and credibility-driven — and cross-examination isn’t over yet.

  • Key Evidence NEVER Tested?! | Kouri Richins Day 3 Full Trial Recap
    Feb 26 2026
    Day three of the Kouri Richins trial was unexpectedly short — but not before one stray comment triggered an immediate sidebar and a direct instruction to the jury to “put it out of their minds.” In this episode, we break down the moment a reference to “jail calls” prompted the defense to move to strike it, why the judge stepped in, and whether it could realistically impact the trial. We also unpack the cross-examination of crime scene tech Chelsea Gipson, including what was never photographed, what was never tested — most notably the hydrocodone bottle — and why that detail could become a key defense talking point. Even on a short day, the strategic moves inside that courtroom mattered. Sponsors: Gusto: Try Gusto today at https://gusto.com/HIDDEN and get three months free when you run your first payroll.

  • Autopsy Secrets EXPOSED! | Kouri Richins Trial Day 2 Full Recap
    Feb 25 2026
    Day two of the Kouri Richins trial brought sharp challenges from the defense as they zeroed in on timeline discrepancies, crime scene procedure, and what law enforcement did—and didn’t—document that morning. We break down tense cross-examinations of first responders, powerful EMT testimony about Eric’s unusual body position, and the critical autopsy findings confirming a toxic level of fentanyl—while the manner of death remains officially undetermined. We also unpack the nuanced toxicology details, including alcohol in gastric contents and untouched naltrexone, and why those points could matter strategically for the jury. If you want the clearest, most thorough breakdown of what happened in court today, we’ve got you covered.
