Craig Titus Has Tantrum in Court

July 19, 2006 | 11:20 am

Craigtitus1127a_is66cdnc_3 The murder case against the bodybuilding celebrity couple Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan is back in the headlines. On Tuesday a court hearing was held to determine wether to dismiss charges against the duo of allegedly killing their personal assistant, Melissa James, 28.

Most press accounts have focused on the voluble and apparently not very bright Titus. But Clark County prosecutor Robert Daskas argued: "It was Kelly Ryan herself who was involved in the fight with Melissa Jamas. It was Kelly Ryan who used a Taser or stun gun.... It was Kelly Ryan herself who injected Melissa James with morphine."

According to the Review-Journal, Craig Titus then interrupted the proceedings offering a dream moment to prosecutors by yelling in open court: "No she did not!" Prosecutor Daskas was ready, saying instantly, "Well, let's ask Mr. Titus who did it." Titus offered no answer beyond, "I'm getting tired of him saying that."

Well, Mr. Titus, you are going to find a murder trial totally exhausting, because the judge refused to dismiss any charges. The trial is set to begin in January.
