Colorado dentist charged with poisoning his wife’s protein shakes faces new charges

Colorado dentist James Craig, accused of fatally poisoning his wife Angela Craig last year, now faces two additional charges: solicitation to commit murder and perjury.

Angela, a mother of six, died in March 2023 from cyanide and tetrahydrozoline poisoning.

Prosecutors allege James spiked her protein shakes, citing evidence of his online searches for undetectable poisons and how to stage a murder as a heart attack.

The couple’s strained marriage reportedly involved his multiple affairs and her desire to leave, NBC News has reported.

Craig has pleaded not guilty, and jury selection was delayed after his attorney withdrew, citing ethical concerns.
