Colorado dentist charged in wife's poisoning death tried to get inmate to kill detective on his case, prosecutors say
CBSN
Prosecutors on Friday are set to present evidence that a Colorado dentist charged with killing his wife also tried to get a fellow inmate to kill a detective investigating him.
James Craig is accused of poisoning his wife's protein shakes nearly two years ago, allegedly ordering a rush shipment of potassium cyanide that he said he needed for a patient after police say arsenic failed to kill her.
Late last year, prosecutors filed new charges against him: solicitation to commit murder and solicitation to commit perjury. The charging document did not say who Craig allegedly wanted to have killed but police in Aurora, Colorado, have confirmed the intended target of the alleged murder plot was a detective on the case.
