The True Story of the Mysterious Case with Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan with Documentary

In the United States, there is still great interest in the case involving Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan. In fact, the interest in the case appears to be increasing rather than decreasing. A book titled "The Flame in the Desert: The True Story of the Mysterious Case of Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan," written by Glenn Puitom, has recently been released and is being sold in bookstores throughout the country.

It is worth noting that the author treated the bodybuilding community, as well as Craig and Kelly, with a high degree of respect. When writing the book, he did not base his conclusions on rumors, speculation, or other unverified information. Instead, he relied solely on police reports and analyzed their conclusions and assumptions. It is also worth mentioning that the author has a legal education.

Based on the book's sales volumes, it appears to be becoming a bestseller in the United States and in other countries.

A quick review of the case.

In December 2005, a police patrol driving through the desert near Los Angeles noticed a column of smoke near the road. Upon arriving at the source of the smoke, they discovered a burnt-out skeleton of a Jaguar and a nearly destroyed corpse of a woman inside, who was later identified as Kelly's. Craig was testifying that same evening. Upon further investigation, the police found that Melissa James, an assistant to Craig and Kelly who helped them launch their own clothing line, was also in the car. Multiple marks of electric shock torture were found on her body, her mouth was sealed with scotch tape, her neck was wrapped in wire, and there was an overdose of morphine in her blood. Experts concluded that her cause of death was an overdose.

After agreeing not to leave the country and paying bail, the couple immediately fled to Greece, Craig's ancestral homeland, where the US did not have an extradition treaty. They hid for nine days but were eventually arrested. The couple denied any involvement in the murder, but their friend Anthony Gross, who was revealed to be the third accomplice, made a deal and testified against them. However, the prosecutor was not entirely certain of what happened, so Kelly was sentenced to 6 to 26 years in prison, while Craig received 21 to 51 years because he took the blame for the murder. Gross was released on probation.

The details of what happened in December 2005 are still not entirely clear, and there are two main theories. The first theory suggests that the assistant had stolen $100,000 from the couple's account to buy drugs to sell. The second theory suggests that jealousy played a role and that Kelly caught the girl with Craig and attacked her. Craig then allegedly took the body into the desert and attempted to burn it, but was not entirely "successful."

Craig and Kelly are in jail

In 2009, while in prison, Kelly divorced Titus.
