Defense in Kouri Richins case files motions to disqualify prosecution, suppress evidence

Kouri Richins defense on Friday filed a motion to disqualify the prosecution from the case.

Richins is charged with giving her husband a fatal dose of fentanyl in 2022. She was arrested the following year, shortly after publishing a children's book on dealing with the loss of a loved one that featured Eric Richins as an angel throughout the story.

The motion specifically named prosecutor Brad Bloodworth, alleging he encroached on attorney-client privilege in multiple violations of Richin's 6th Amendment right to effective assistance of counsel.
