More rich?

0Yesterday I watched "The Fugitive" (starring Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones) again on TV, and noticed that, when the policemen are discussing the motive why Dr. Kimble could have killed his wife, one of the cops say it could be for money. To what other says something like: But he is a doctor, he is rich. Then another guy says, like: But she was 01b00more rich02b00.02br
02br
00Is that correct that way? Shouldn't it be 01b00richer02b00?0-
