Baker YouTube channel:    • UT v. Kouri Richins - State Response to TH...   In a brief restitution hearing for Kouri Richins, the prosecution's request for life insurance restitution totaling over $1.4 million was granted unopposed, with the defense's request for a stay denied. Following this, the state's response to the defense’s motion for a new trial, which primarily accused the judge of bias. The state's response—supported by an appendix outlining trial sidebars and positive juror interviews—argued that the judge acted with complete fairness, patience, and restraint, while characterizing the defense's claims as legally inaccurate and persistent in misinterpreting the rules of evidence.
