Dentist James Craig Poisoned his Wife's Protein Shakes with Potassium Cyanide

Dentist Dr James Craig and his wife Angela seemed to be living the dream with their six children in Aurora, Colorado.  James seemed to be well-liked, and by all accounts was a great employer.  There are photos of him online dressed up as the Tooth Fairy, always smiling broadly.  Angela had James down in her phone as ‘The Boy’.  The couple worked out together and appeared close.  

Life is not always what it appears on the surface.  James was conducting an affair with an Orthodontist in Texas and he needed Angela out of the way.  

James made a new email account and conducted searches about what the best way to kill someone with poison was.  He ordered potassium cyanide to be delivered to his office.   He put the poison in Angela’s protein smoothies, multiple times, until she finally died in hospital in March 2023. 

In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the insane case of Dr James Craig who allegedly poisoned his wife Angela to death.
