    Not that weird. Usually these types can’t shut the fuck about it.

    The internet search history from Richins’s phone included “what is a lethal.dose.of.fetanayl” and “luxury prisons for the rich America”

    Lmao

      As a defense attorney I would’ve immediately declared my client mentally disabled and listed the search history as proof.

            That would almost be as bad as writing a six page letter detailing all of your attempted witness tampering and accidentally having it found in your jail cell.

            Which is a thing she did.

            It could only be worse if that letter included instructions to make threats against someone’s children.

            Oh. It did.

            Look up the “Walk the dog” letter. It is one of the most unbelievably damning pieces of evidence you will ever see. The prosecution literally built their entire closing argument around it because it’s so bad that they can just discard the rest of their case and still win on that alone.

          Lmao I followed this trial start to finish but mainly listened to it in the background podcast-style so I didn’t see most of the closing slides. Didn’t realize how many typos were in those searches haha.

        That’s interesting. On the surface one might assume she’s just dumb and doesn’t understand how to assess her finances, but I wonder if there’s more to it; maybe she already knew her net worth (or didn’t particularly care), but wanted to know what other people say her net worth is.

            She didn’t. She was in the hole $1.5M. There’s a whole series of fraud cases which are basically her singled-handed personal ponzi scheme of bad loans that are still pending trial.

              What is it with these people? One thing is just never enough. If she had just killed her husband that’s fine, if he was just scamming people that’s fine, but if you can’t stick to one crime at a time honey you’re gonna get caught 👁️👄👁️💅🏾
