Colorado Dentist Charged with Murder and Conspiracy

James Craig, a Colorado dentist accused of poisoning his wife Angela with cyanide and tetrahydrozoline, is facing new charges for soliciting the murder of an Aurora police detective involved in the investigation. Craig's request to have the detective killed was made while he was incarcerated, and prosecutors have charged him with solicitation to commit murder and solicitation to commit perjury. His trial for first-degree murder, initially scheduled to begin soon, has been postponed indefinitely after his attorney withdrew due to a conflict of interest. Angela Craig, who died in March 2023, was reportedly poisoned with substances hidden in her protein shakes, with the couple having been married for 23 years and having six children. Craig has pleaded not guilty to all charges and is set to appear in court with a new attorney on December 16. The case has drawn significant media attention and public interest, revealing a troubling narrative of deception and alleged criminal behavior.
