- A new charge alleges Richins poisoned her husband with a sandwich on Valentine’s Day 2022.
- Prosecutors accuse her of killing her husband with fentanyl in March 2022; a medical examiner found five times the lethal dose.
- On Monday, prosecutors also charged her with mortgage fraud and insurance fraud.
- Her attorney, Skye Lazaro, argued in earlier hearings that the evidence was dubious and circumstantial.
Twenty — or five times the lethal dose — is not accidental. That is someone who wants Eric dead.— Patricia Cassell, Summit County Chief Prosecutor, said in new charging documents.
