Скачать или смотреть Digital Forensics Expert Confirms All Phone Data Extracted in Kouri Richins Trial

Two cell phones. Every text. Every search. Every photo. The state just confirmed it's all in their hands, and it hasn't been touched.

Cheney Eng-Tow is a digital forensics technician with Utah's Intermountain West Regional Computer Forensic Laboratory. Summit County submitted two phones to his lab, and he extracted everything on them. Full file system acquisitions. Both phones. The prosecution brought him here to lay the foundation for whatever the jury is about to see from those devices.

But watch what the defense does. Instead of attacking the extraction, Kouri Richins' attorney asks the expert to walk the jury through the entire process, step by step. Pay attention to why. And on redirect, the prosecution gets the witness to explain something called a hash value. It's the digital equivalent of a fingerprint, and it proves the data was never altered. Not once.

⏰ KEY MOMENTS

00:00 - Eng-Tow takes the stand. This is the man who pulled every piece of data from those phones.
02:09 - Two phones submitted by Summit County. Full extractions on both. The prosecution locks it in fast.
04:24 - Defense takes a different approach. Instead of challenging, they ask for a full walkthrough. There's a reason.
06:19 - Here's what the jury just learned: texts, emails, photos, videos, everything parsed and readable. All of it.
10:45 - This is the moment. Hash values explained. Think of it as a mathematical proof that nothing was changed.
12:39 - Every hash matched. The data is identical to what came off those phones. Mathematically impossible to fake.

📖 CASE BACKGROUND

On March 4, 2022, Kouri Richins called 911 from her Francis, Utah home at 3 a.m. Her husband Eric was unresponsive. Toxicology revealed five times the lethal dose of fentanyl. Eric had no history of drug use.

Prosecutors allege Kouri had been taking money from Eric for years. They say she owed lenders more than $1.8 million and had opened nearly $2 million in life insurance on Eric without him knowing.

Eric discovered the financial issues in 2020. He changed his will, created a trust naming his sister as trustee, and removed Kouri as beneficiary.

One year after Eric's death, Kouri published a children's book about a father watching over his son from heaven. Four weeks later, she was arrested. The defense maintains her innocence.

⚖️ ABOUT JUSTICE IS A PROCESS

This channel continues the work of Steven M. Askin, a criminal defense attorney who was disbarred in 1998 for refusing to violate attorney-client privilege, then criminally convicted in 2010 for teaching people their constitutional rights from a coffee shop in Martinsburg, West Virginia. He passed away in February 2024, but not before he and I started this channel together.

I am Steven M. Askin II. I am not an attorney. I am a watchdog. I cover criminal trials to educate the public about due process, the presumption of innocence, and constitutional protections. Every video on this channel is part of building the machine the system feared my father would create: a public trained to watch, question, and demand accountability.

This is not entertainment. This is education. This is oversight. This is Justice Is A Process.
