Aurora, Colorado police have arrested James Toliver Craig, 45, a dentist in the area, on suspicion of murder in the death of his wife.
On Wednesday evening, Craig drove his wife, 43, to a local hospital after she complained of “severe headaches and dizziness.” However, her condition quickly deteriorated and she was placed on a ventilator in the intensive care unit. She was declared medically brain-dead a short time later.
After doctors made the decision to take her off life support early Sunday morning, police determined that she had been poisoned and a warrant for first-degree murder was obtained.
The Aurora Police Department said in a statement that the investigation into the woman’s suspicious death was “complex and calculated.” They are continuing to investigate the incident and are asking anyone with information to come forward.
Craig is currently being held in the Arapahoe County Jail without bond. It is unclear at this time if he has retained an attorney.
