TL;DR Summary

A Colorado dentist, James Craig, is set to enter a plea on a first-degree murder charge for allegedly killing his wife by poisoning her protein shakes. Police discovered that Craig had searched online for information on making murder look like a heart attack and whether arsenic is detectable in an autopsy. His wife, Angela Craig, died from poisoning by cyanide and tetrahydrozoline, a substance found in over-the-counter eye drops. The defense argued that there was no direct evidence linking Craig to the poisoning, while investigators allege that he attempted to poison his wife's shake with arsenic before ordering potassium cyanide.
