RAMROD 87,044 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) Police believe a Colorado dentist laced his wife’s pre-workout protein shakes with arsenic and cyanide, eventually killing his spouse so he could be with a woman he was having an affair with, according to court documents. James Craig, 45, was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder Sunday, shortly after his wife died after being taken off life support during her third trip to the hospital this month. Craig is scheduled to appear in court Thursday to learn whether prosecutors have decided to file charges against him. As Angela Craig languished in the hospital, with doctors unable to figure out what was wrong with her, police in the Denver suburb of Aurora allege her husband was meeting with a fellow dentist who flew in for visits with him. Police began investigating Craig after his dental practice partner and friend, Ryan Redfearn, told a nurse that Craig had ordered potassium cyanide even though they did not need it for their work, according to an arrest warrant laying out evidence gathered by investigators. After allegedly Googling questions like, “Is Arsenic Detectable in Autopsy?” investigators believe Craig put arsenic in one of the protein shakes he routinely made for his wife for their workouts on March 6 and then, after she survived, he ordered a rush shipment of potassium cyanide that he told the supplier was needed for a surgery. Craig had asked an office manager not to open that package but another employee did, leading to its discovery and eventual disclosure to authorities, the document said. Craig told Redfearn that he ordered the potassium cyanide for his wife and told a social worker that she had been suicidal and depressed since he asked for a divorce in December even though neither of the couple’s children said anything about suicide attempts, according to the arrest affidavit. Redfearn also told investigators that Craig was on the verge of bankruptcy and had been having problems in his marriage, according to the document. Angela Craig’s sister, Toni Kofoed, told police that Craig had drugged his wife about five years ago with an unknown drug because he said he planned to kill himself and did not want her to be able to save him. https://apnews.com/article/dentist-poison-wife-colorado-murder-charge-ce6878a3c1127c870125867d7f062c3c Edited March 21 by RAMROD (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ 努力 未来, A BEAUTIFUL ST𖤐Я (*´艸`*) ♡♡♡ 11 15 Link to post Share on other sites

rinasawachanta 1,682 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) why is everyone talking about the cheating and NO ONE talking about him literally killing her? Edited March 21 by rinasawachanta 5 Link to post Share on other sites
Emvee 6,642 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 It’s always the damn husband trying be with his ugly ass mistress. Reminds of me of Chris Watts and it pisses me off so much. These cowards really prefer to KILL someone rather than to own up to their infidelity and file for a divorce. Then again it’s probably partially about keeping all the money too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

She may have life insurance too so the math just makes more sense. Link to post Share on other sites

Lucas 18,544 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 (edited) The way the straight man brain works is so strange. Possibility: break up, divorce, enjoy the rest of your life with your side chick Choice: kill, take the risk to go to jail, spend your life far from your side chick in jail with other men Edited March 21 by Lucas Link to post Share on other sites
