PARK CITY, Utah — NBC’s Dateline will air a new, hour-long “Page Turner” episode tonight centered on Kouri Richins, who is accused of killing her husband, Eric Richins, last year.

“Following her husband’s sudden death, Utah mother-of-three Kouri Richins writes a book to help her children through their grief,” states the episode description. “But when investigators learn the cause of death and dig deeper into their lives, Kouri is charged with murder. In Friday’s all-new Dateline, friends of the couple speak out about the ongoing case.”
