On this week's episode of The Trial USA, we bring you up to date on the trial of former real estate agent Kouri Richins. She’s accused of murdering her millionaire husband, Eric Richins, with a fentanyl-laced Moscow Mule, before publishing an illustrated children's book about coping with grief.In March 2022, 39-year-old Eric Richins was found dead in the bedroom of the home he shared with his wife and their three children. At first, his death appeared sudden but unexplained. Then the autopsy results came back. Eric had five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in his system.Richins has pleaded not guilty, and her defense team says there is no evidence she poisoned Eric, suggesting he may have obtained drugs himself during a trip to Mexico shortly before his death.As the trial unfolds, jurors are hearing dramatic testimony about the couple’s finances, their troubled marriage, and the people now at the center of the case.Daily Mail crime correspondent Rachel Sharp joins us from inside the courtroom in Park City to walk us through what jurors have heard so far - from the key witnesses and explosive testimony to the moments that could shape the jury’s verdict.The Trial: USA is part of the Crime Desk.

In 1994, Kurt Cobain was found dead in a room above the garage of his Seattle home. Authorities ruled that he had died from a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head. The case was closed as a suicide.But for more than 30 years, questions have lingered.Now, a new independent team of forensic researchers has re-examined Cobain’s autopsy and crime scene evidence.They claim to have identified five key details - from blood pattern analysis to toxicology findings - that they argue are inconsistent with the official ruling.Seattle Police continue to maintain that Cobain died by suicide.In this special episode of The Trial: USA, we speak with retired Seattle Police Captain Neil Low, who was serving on the force at the time of Cobain’s death and has since reviewed the new forensic report. He explains why the case is back in the headlines, what the independent team says they’ve uncovered, and why some now believe this was not a suicide, but a homicide.We revisit the original investigation, examine the new claims, and ask: after all these years, is this case truly closed?The Trial: USA is part of the Crime Desk.

In this special episode of The Trial: USA, we examine one of the most hotly contested death investigations in recent history - the case of Ellen Greenberg.Ellen was a 27-year-old teacher from Philadelphia who was found dead in her apartment in 2011, having suffered twenty stab wounds - many to the back of her head. Despite the circumstances, her death was ruled a suicide. That conclusion has been questioned for more than a decade.Ellen’s case has since become a defining story within the true-crime genre, inspiring countless podcasts, a book-length investigation by Nancy Grace, and widespread public scrutiny over how suspicious deaths are investigated - and how law enforcement is held to account.In this episode, we begin by hearing directly from Ellen’s parents, Joshua Greenberg and Sandee Greenberg, in an interview conducted by senior reporter Laura Collins, who has covered the case for nearly fifteen years. They speak about who Ellen was, the unanswered questions surrounding her death, and the impact of the suicide ruling on their family.The Trial: USA is part of the Crime Desk.
