Murderous Dentist James Craig's 'Sugar Dating' Life Revealed

Murderous Dentist James Craig's 'Sugar Dating' Life Revealed

The lead up to James Craig’s trial was bizarre.....two postponements, three different attorney teams, five added charges, and a crazy action from an attorney, who allegedly set his own house on fire.

Still, the Aurora dentist’s trial began and ended after jurors heard from four mistresses who said James Craig told them his marriage was over, but a divorce would break him financially.

Crag faced six felony counts:

  • Murder in the first degree
  • Two counts of solicitation to commit tampering with physical evidence
  • Three counts of solicitation to commit perjury in the first degree

Court documents show Craig, jailed on a murder charge of his wife, Angela Craig, still allegedly worked to convince inmates, a former mistress, and even one of his own children to tamper with evidence, to plant it to make it look like Angela Craig wanted to kill herself.

Prosecutors say James Craig even made a botched murder-for-hire attempt on the case’s lead detective just before a second attempt at trial last year. Craig allegedly offered people cash and dental work in return for a cover-up.

Craig insists he ordered poison because she asked him to.

James Craig and his wife Angela were married for over 20 years. They created a beautiful family of six, loving, happy family, happy children. Between work and taking care of their children, the Craigs still manage to fit a workout into their daily routine.

The husband and wife go for a run or hit the gym together almost every day, and when they return home, James Craig makes protein shakes or fruit smoothies for breakfast while Angela delves into getting the kids ready for the day.

Angela complains of having a really nasty headache, along with problems with her eyesight. She goes to the hospital, saying she feels tingly and cold.

Doctors cannot figure out what's wrong with her. Angela goes to the hospital multiple times, only to be sent home. When she goes back for a third time, that's when she's checked in, and her condition deteriorates, coding quickly. Angela passes away.

One of Summer Brooks’ dental assistants recalls opening a package for Dr. Craig that had potassium cyanide in it. She googles the symptoms of cyanide poisoning and is horrified at how closely they match Angela’s symptoms.

She immediately calls Craig’s partner, Ryan Redfearn, hoping he has some other explanation for the contents of the package...but he doesn’t. While visiting Angela, Redfearn tells a nurse about the cyanide, explaining there’s no medical use for the element in their practice. As a mandatory reporter, the nurse calls the police.

With suspicions raised, Angela Craig is sent for an autopsy with additional toxicology screening. Tests reveal the otherwise healthy mom of six died of poisoning from both cyanide and tetrahydrozoline, a common ingredient in eyedrops.

While investigators have no definitive evidence that Angela’s food and drinks were poisoned with cyanide, the tests reveal her cyanide levels increased while she was in the hospital.

Police then check Craig's computer, finding strange searches. One of them was how to poison someone, how to make poison, and the top five or top 10 undetectable poisons that people won't be able to find after someone has died, and will not signal foul play.

Less than 24 hours after his wife’s death, dentist James Toliver Craig is arrested for Angela’s murder and additionally charged with tampering with evidence.

A 52-page arrest affidavit details Craig’s concerning computer searches, three poison orders, an ongoing affair, and proof that Craig took several measures to cover his tracks.

Police then learn the dentist allegedly tried to hire his cellmate to kill Aurora PD’s lead detective, Bobbi Jo Olson, for $20,000. Calling Olson the “worst, dirtiest detective,”

James Craig tried to recruit Nathaniel Harris to take her out for cash or free dental work. Olson wasn’t the only person on his list. Craig also asked Harris to kill another Aurora PD officer and two inmates, ‘Roger’ and ‘Tommy.’

Now the details of Craig's "sugar dating life" revealed.

Unbelievable: Kohberger Files Sex Harass Claim Over B*** F***  Threat, Demands Transfer

Unbelievable: Kohberger Files Sex Harass Claim Over B*** F*** Threat, Demands Transfer

Killer Bryan Kohberger has no trouble admitting to violently killing four people with a knife in a sneak attack in the middle of the night, but after just one night in J-Block at the Idaho Maximum Security Prison, he is begging to be transferred out. He submits a handwritten note telling the deputy warden he is being subjected to minute-by-minute verbal threats and harassment and asks to be transferred out of Unit 2 on J-Block because he says, "J-Block is an environment I wish to transfer from." In his first note of complaint and begging, Kohberger violates a cardinal rule of prison: never rat out your fellow prisoners. Kohberger writes he is "not engaging in any of the recent flooding/striking...." "Flooding" in prison jargon refers to inmates intentionally causing water to overflow in their cells, creating a disruption on the block, and by saying he isn't taking part, he is pointing his bony finger of righteous indignation at others on J-Block. After sending his first note of complaint after his first night in prison, Kohberger follows it up a few days later with another note, this one given to a guard and claiming he is the victim of sexual harassment. In the note, Kohberger claims one inmate is threatening to rape him, while another inmate says, "The only ass we'll be eating is Kohberger's." Kohberger offers up the name of a guard he says heard the threats and harassment, so his claims can be verified. An incident notification report is filled out by the guard who received the second Kohberger note, and the guard named by Kohberger is questioned about the claims made by the admitted quadruple murderer. In a report filed three days later, the guard says he recalls vulgar language being used and directed towards Kohberger, but he doesn't know which inmates made the threats. In his note, Kohberger tells the deputy warden that he wants to be transferred to B-Block immediately. Immediately. Kohberger also wants to speak to the deputy warden soon. In response, Kohberger is told J-Block is "generally a fairly calm and quieter tier," and the flooding is a relatively rare occurrence. "He isn't given his transfer and is told "to give it some time."

BOMBSHELL: MIDNIGHT SCREAMS, DESIGNER DEAD ON HAMPTONS YACHT,  OWNER BITE ATTACK

BOMBSHELL: MIDNIGHT SCREAMS, DESIGNER DEAD ON HAMPTONS YACHT, OWNER BITE ATTACK

Police respond to a 911 call in the high society area of the Hamptons at the Montauk Yacht Club shortly after midnight. Martha Nolan-O'Slattarra, a fashion designer from Ireland, is found unresponsive on a boat named "Ripple." The yacht is reportedly owned by insurance mogul Christopher Durnan, 60, who was present at the scene and allegedly ran down the dock screaming for help. The wealthy yacht owner was once accused of fighting and biting a former New York firefighter during a tribute concert, commemorating 20 years after the 9/11 terror attacks. CPR is attempted by a good Samaritan, but first responders pronounce Martha dead at the scene. Initial autopsy results showed no signs of violence. As rumors swirl of drug overdose, Martha's family strongly denies those claims and rumors of brain cancer by hiring attorney Arthur Aidala to ensure a thorough investigation is performed. The official cause of death is inconclusive, pending toxicology reports.
