Ex-patient: Accused dentist looked ‘horrible’ in court
- James Craig, a Colorado dentist, was charged with murder in the death of his wife
- A former patient was in the courtroom, and said Craig looked "horrible"
- Prosecutors allege Craig laced his wife's protein shakes with arsenic and cyanide
(NewsNation) — James Craig, the Colorado dentist who is accused of killing his wife by poisoning her, was in court Thursday and charged with first-degree murder.
His former patient and local radio host Steffan Tubbs was in the courtroom, and said Craig looked “disheveled” and “absolutely horrible.”
“His eyes were puffy … he had bloodshot eyes,” Tubbs said Thursday on “CUOMO,” describing the scene inside the courtroom. “He said a few words, ‘yes, yes, no and yes.'”
Prosecutors allege Craig laced his wife Angela’s protein shakes with arsenic and cyanide, a combination that sent her to hospitals three times in the span of 10 days. She was taken off life support Saturday, and her husband was arrested Sunday.
