Barber Accused of Sadistic Snake Attack in Wife's Death
Los Angeles reports at the murder trial of Robert S. James reveal he allegedly plotted to kill his wife for insurance and derived sadistic pleasure from a rattlesnake attack. Witnesses recount James binding her to a table, placing her foot near a venomous snake, and possessing poison crystals as he plotted the crime. The claim ties to statements to alienists in jail and a plan to find or misdirect discovery of a Wilber snake, with the body later found in a La Cañada fish pond after an initial poison failed.
