Porn Addict Dentist Arrested For Murdering His Wife With Poisoned Protein Shakes To ‘Start A New Life With Her Lover’

A dentist in Colorado, US has been arrested after allegedly poisoning his wife’s morning protein shakes with arsenic.

James Toliver Craig, a 45-year-old practicing dentist, was arrested on Sunday morning March 19 in what police described as the “heinous, complex and calculated murder” of his wife Angela Craig, 43.

Angela, who was also the mother of his six children, was admitted to Parker Adventist Hospital on March 6 complaining of abdominal pain, dehydration, vomiting, diarrhea, altered mental status and organic failure.

Prior to his admission, James and Angela trained in their home gym.

“Before training, James made Angela a protein shake or a pre-workout shake in which James gave her extra protein because she was feeling lazy,” states an affidavit for the arrest of James. “After practice, Angela passed out and felt dizzy, and eventually James took Angela to the hospital.”

She was released the same day, but was hospitalized again at Anschutz University Hospital in Aurora on March 15.

Her condition worsened as she began to suffer severe seizures. She was eventually put on life support, but lost her brain activity and was declared brain dead later that day.

After a while, James’s employees and business partners in his dental office suspected foul play. An office manager at his firm opened a personal package purchased from Amazon addressed to James on March 13 and found it contained potassium cyanide.

Another employee noticed that James had acted suspiciously the previous days. James used a computer to work in an unoccupied exam room, instead of his personal computer in his office.

When police investigators searched the computer in the exam room, they found that James was using another email address.

On February 27, James used the Google account associated with the secret email address to search for the phrases: “how many grams of pure arsenic will kill a human” and “is arsenic detectable in an autopsy ?”.

James also researched poisons on YouTube. His search history on the site included the videos: “Top 5 Undetectable Poisons That Show No Signs of Foul Play”, “How to Make Poison”, and “The 10 Deadliest Plants (They Can Kill You)”.

Using the same account, Craig then ordered 10 grams of arsenic from Amazon. The total purchase cost $13.

According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), arsenic poisoning can cause “nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea to dehydration and shock” in victims, symptoms similar to those Angela experienced during his first hospitalization.

After investigators discovered the first order, he ordered potassium cyanide.

After placing the order, an employee of the company he was buying it from contacted him to ask if he needed the poison and asked him to sign a Restricted Use Statement for the item before that it cannot be shipped.

In the statement of use, James stated that he was a surgeon performing craniofacial reconstructions. He wanted to use cyanide to help with “alternate metal layering.” If the experiment is successful, he said he would publish the results with the National Institutes of Health.

This packet of potassium cyanide was eventually delivered to him at his office, but was opened by the office manager. When the employee questioned him about it, he “eventually recanted and admitted that the package contained potassium cyanide, but claimed that Angela asked him to order it,” says his warrant. stop.

James told investigators he believed his wife was seriously depressed by intentionally trying to overdose, but at least one child protective services investigator found that account to be untrue.

“None of Angela’s children mentioned their mother’s depression or any previous suspected suicide attempts,” the investigator said, and “felt it unlikely that this type of event (suicide attempt by overdose) could happen without anyone inside the household”, except James, being aware.

Further interviews with friends and family revealed that the couple’s relationship had been “tumultuous” for years.

“James has had multiple relationships with multiple women, told Angela he was addicted to porn since he was a teenager, and drugged Angela about five to six years ago,” a person close to the family told investigators.

The same family member told investigators that James refused to let the hospital perform an autopsy on his wife after she died.

“James said he thought if they couldn’t figure out what was wrong with her when she was alive, he wouldn’t let them push her any further when she was dead.”

The affidavit also revealed that a search of James’ mobile phone showed he was in a “sexually intimate relationship” with an unidentified orthodontist. James reportedly flew his mistress from Texas to Denver, Colorado while his wife was in the hospital.
