About this episode
The James Craig Case - 5 Shocking Truths Of Alleged Killer Dentist

James Craig was a respected Colorado dentist, a family man, and a churchgoing father of six. But in March 2023, his wife Angela Craig was rushed to the hospital with mysterious symptoms. Three days later, she was dead—and James Craig was under arrest for her murder.
In this gripping episode, we unpack the bizarre and disturbing case of James Craig, who is accused of poisoning his wife with arsenic and potassium cyanide… delivered through her protein shake. Investigators say he Googled “how much arsenic to kill a human,” ordered the poison to his office, and tried multiple times to finish the job—even while she was hospitalized. All while allegedly maintaining a secret affair with a Texas orthodontist.

But the chaos didn’t stop with the arrest.

Craig’s murder trial has been delayed repeatedly due to courtroom absurdities, including a defense attorney quitting the night before trial—claiming Craig asked him to do something illegal—and another lawyer getting arrested for arson. Yes, really.

Even more shocking? Prosecutors allege that while in jail, Craig attempted to orchestrate a murder-for-hire plot against the lead detective—and tried to plant fake suicide letters to bolster his defense.

With jury selection now underway in July 2025, this may be one of the most outrageous true crime stories in recent history.

Join us as we explore the twisted details of the case, the evidence, the attempted cover-ups, and what this trial means for justice and trust in the people closest to us.

If you thought suburban life was safe, think again.
