It's been four years since father of three, Eric Richins, died from a fentanyl overdose. We now know his ingestion of the drug was planned by his wife Kori. A jury took just under 3 hours to convict Richins. During the trial, she addressed the court and her children, saying she doesn't want anyone telling them their father was murdered, and for the three of them to look after each other. Then it was the children's turn. Letters written to the court, read by therapists, laid out the depth of the children's lack of warmth for their mother. They told their mother and the judge that if Kouri was released from jail, they would be afraid. Now Kouri is planning her appeal, accusing the judge of bias. The judge has recused himself.

Missy Bevers arrives at Creekside Church at 4:16 AM and begins setting up for her 5 AM fitness class. She doesn't realize that someone else is in the building. Video surveillance shows a person dressed in full police SWAT tactical gear walking through the halls of the church with an unusual gait while clutching a hammer. Shortly before 5 AM, one of Bevers' students arrives, finding Bevers' body inside the church. Bevers has puncture wounds to her head and chest. The student calls 911. In minutes, police and rescue arrive, and Missy Bevers is pronounced dead on the scene. Creekside church has surveillance cameras inside and out of their property. Still, in a tough break for cops, the outside cameras don't work. Police rule out Missy Bevers' husband, Brandon, as he was on an annual fishing trip at the time of the murder. However, Missy Bevers' death investigation now includes a vehicle of interest that police say was captured on surveillance cameras at a nearby business just before the murder. It is a 2010-2012 Nissan Altima, silver or light color, with an oval sticker on its bumper.
