Summary
The jury has spoken. In a stunning end to one of Colorado’s most chilling trials, former dentist James Craig has been found guilty of first-degree murder, along with five related felony charges, and has been sentenced to life without parole. In this episode, we break down every pivotal moment — the verdict read, the courtroom’s emotional atmosphere, and the voting details of a jury that deliberated less than one day.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
- The jury’s unanimous conviction on charges ranging from murder to solicitation and perjury, with a clear rejection of Craig’s suicide theory
- How prosecutors portrayed Craig as a calculating husband who poisoned his wife – from cyanide in protein shakes to a lethal IV dose in the hospital
- The defense’s attempt to frame the case as one of emotional breakdown and investigate oversights, weighed against hard evidence of search histories, poison orders, and manipulation
- Victim impact statements that tore through the courtroom — including Craig’s own daughter saying, “He'll forever be the villain in my book”
- The sentence itself and the full significance of a mandatory life term plus decades on additional charges
Prepare for closure — but not for forgetting.
