Someone is hacking into the Colorado court’s video streaming system disrupting often-sensitive hearings with *advertiser censored*, racial slurs and videos so disturbing, staff is reportedly traumatized by them.

The hacks, which started in July, have happened on Judicial Webex platforms all over the state, specifically those that stream for: Jefferson County; Clear Creek County mountain courts; Arapahoe County; Grand Junction’s Mesa County Courthouse; Boulder County Courthouse; Adams County for its Brighton courthouse and the Larimer County Courthouse in Fort Collins.

Judges don't appear to be cancelling the use of WebEx due to the hacks, Karrer said.

That's really terrible for so many reasons.

The Webex feed was so wonderful to follow Gannon's trial. Everything except sidebars was there to see and hear for anyone who wanted to follow the trial. I followed it in the middle of the night from Australia for close to two months, four days a week. I hope they're able to fix the issue very soon.

MOO

After reading this article I have to agree with you - he is an idiot. He didn't leave a trail of breadcrumbs pointing to his guilt. He left a flashing neon billboard!

Aurora dentist searched “how to make poison,” bought arsenic and cyanide before wife’s death, affidavit says

James Craig, 45, was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder Sunday, hours after his wife, Angela Craig, 43, was taken off life support and died.

Not only this. Having searched for poisons that don’t leave traces, he ended up buying arsenic and potassium cyanide…

Prosecutors: Dentist charged with poisoning wife wanted women to lie in scheme

Colorado dentist and father-of-six James Craig has been charged with murder in connection with the 2023 poisoning death of his wife.

www.the-independent.com

9/12/24

A shackled and handcuffed Craig, his growing grey hair tied up in a ponytail above his orange jumpsuit, appeared Wednesday in a Colorado court for a preliminary hearing on an amended perjury charge.

[..]

He was back in court this week for his latest legal development, not for the murder charge, but for alleged perjury and allegations of a scheme to try and cover up the alleged murder.

During the hearing, prosecutors detailed a letter discovered in April 2023 – just weeks after his arrest – in the mailroom of Arapahoe County Detention Facility. A mailroom employee contacted police detective Bobbi Olson after opening a letter that had been returned to its sender, Craig, at the facility.

Addressed to “William and Becca,” the letter had been sent to the mailing address of a man who had briefly been incarcerated in the same wing of the detention center as Craig, Olson testified on Wednesday.

[..]

Judge Shay Whitaker found on Wednesday that prosecutors had met the burden of proof and set an arraignment date on the amended perjury charge for October 15.

Craig’s murder trial is scheduled to begin on December 2.

regarding that letter and it's content, just wow, the idiocy of this man. If a woman, the mother of his children, was not dead this would be funny. No screenwriter could create a character this stupid IMO.

Aurora dentist murder case takes another odd turn

James Craig, a dentist accused of poisoning his wife, attempted to coerce a fellow inmate into agreeing to a plan to make it look like his wife framed him for her death.

denvergazette.com

[…]

Craig is facing one count of first-degree murder after deliberation, two counts of tampering with evidence and now a perjury charge, which is a class 5 felony.

His trial is scheduled to begin Dec. 2 after two days of jury selection.

His next hearing is scheduled for Oct. 15.

Using the promise of costly dental treatment to try to get off the hook for the murder of his wife-dragging her name and reputation through the mud-is absolutely sickening

Question - it says trial to begin 12/2 AFTER 2 days of jury selection - meaning jury selection will begin on Thursday, 12/28 & Friday, 12/29 - ?? Yes? TIA!

I don't see anything in the article about 12/28 and 29....

I guess that a divorce is too time consuming and costly.

What a jerk. On top of everything, he says women recruited need to be good-looking. Of course he does.

"Craig had stipulations to his scheme, the court transcript showed. The women involved must be attractive, between the ages of 25-45 years old, and must relate the sordid romance to have culminated around Christmas of 2022 — three months before Angela Craig died."

Do you mean jury selection 11/28 and 11/29 since the trial is supposed to start on 12/2?

Not sure, the article doesn't say anything. But since 11/28 is Thanksgiving, I am guessing that 12/2 will be when jury selection starts with actual arguments beginning a day or two later. Imo.

OOPS!! Sorry - right November... comes before December.... LOL!

Okay - than I will leave it as is jury selection starts 12/2 - which is a Monday, but I have in my notes:
No court on Mondays. All start @ 8:30am.

I guess that might just mean the trial itself.

Did a docket search for 18th District, Arapahoe County for next 6 months and found these results:
