[gordiano]

Nah.... they've already got it figured out with a new slogan.... "Use Pinnacle products and murder your competition!"

I like it. Great slogan.

I bet it was the Horny Goat Weed that triggered this shit......

[midknight]

So you're saying that Ron IS an accessory, due to too much deleting on Getbig.com?  Interesting.

Hear that Yaroni? No more deleting! 

No disrespecting Ron, hindsight’s 20/20, at least he was always on the A-list for Craig’s parties.

They pay me royalties for the use of my name on their product.

Come to think of it, now that they aren't paying all that money to the alleged murderer and his tramp, they can afford to up my cut.

and to think anyone would ever say our industry isn't whole hearted and a true sport....  I see more and more societies attempt to bring it down (its a wonder why)...
Did anyone see that Nextel commercial with the punk kid who takes a picture of muscle beach on his phone..  imagine's himself in a mash-pit... and there is Little Hurk who trains him to be a bodybuilder... and later in life he is on stage, and all you can see are the judges gasping and all of the sudden the competitive  bb is on a hospital bed getting rushed through the ER...??

could anyone care to enlighten me on this?

I can't say I am surprised these two went out like this... Bonny and Clyde, no?

Just out of curiosity, Sarah, which do you think is more damaging to the sport in the long run...


Craig and Kelly being charged with murder, or...





... chicks who look like men?

[George Whorewell]

On a serious note: I remember reading in some magazine where Titus was being interviewed ( I think it was musclemag) about how Kelly's family ( who has $$$) didnt want her marrying ex con Titus and that he supposedly had to charm and convince her dad to allow it to go down. Now his little girl is on the run for murder. Also where the hell are the pros with respect to this shit? I havent seen a post from chick or shawn ray or anyone...

Yeah, I remember that article too. Kelly’s Dad wanted no part of Titus. It’s a shame.

[Dan-O]

I just gotta say, if Craig is guilty then it's really sad because he's basically thrown away his life over this.  He had a second chance after doing time before.  Now his life is over, to say nothing of his career.  And all for what?

It will be interesting as the story develops.

Maybe he didn't want to get on his bad side?

Because he was too st00pid to bury the body out in the desert somewhere instead of burning it in his own car.

A Muppet wouldn't have made that mistake, right Dan-O?

LOL... he's prolly wishing he had killed Titus when he had the chance. 

[Jerryme7]

I read all the postings on th is thread. Im in disbelief! I cant believe this is happening!

Now the media is going to eat this up claiming riod rage and making the sport look bad.

Do you think this could hurt the sport of bodybuilding and fitness?

Man, I really feel bad for Kelly Ryan. I remember first seeing her when she won the Fitness America Pageant but back then she looked like a plain normal looking woman, a lot smaller than what she is today and very wholesome looking then.

This makes me feel bad for the both of them. Im shaking my head in dismay...

[hangclean]

Doesnt anyone else think it is strange that they burned the car right on the street?

[Dan-O]

Well sad to say, most criminals are st00pid to begin with, that's why they're criminals.  People with a modicum of good sense just don't do that shit.

[pumpster]

where the hell are the pros with respect to this shit? I havent seen a post from chick or shawn ray or anyone...

Very important to mull over politically-expedient "position" prior to commentaries..

[bic_staedtler]

Well, this is truly bizarre!  Seriously, wanted for murder?  It seems to be the case.

Now it's a question of waiting to see what happens when Craig and Kelly are brought in.

This is just plain strange.  I hope we hear something soon, but this is downright shitty no matter how it turns out.  Even at it's best, Titus and Kelly are going to be affected by this allegation.

Wow.

Las Vegas Bodybuilders Sought in Woman's Murder
Dec 22, 2005, 02:45 PM CST 
 
 
Husband and wife bodybuilders Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan are being sought in the slaying of a woman whose body was found last week in the trunk of a burned Jaguar sedan, authorities said. The suspects are champion bodybuilders who live in Las Vegas.

Metro police have not offered a motive for the murder or the name of the victim, who investigators think is a 28-year-old woman who apparently lived with Titus and Kelly in the southwest valley.

A trucker traveling from Pahrump to Las Vegas on Dec. 14 spotted a burned out car on the side of Sandy Valley Road near State Route 160. Police found the charred remains of the body in the trunk of the car.

Investigators were waiting DNA results before releasing the victim's name.

Police say Titus, 40, faces charges of murder and third-degree arson. Kelly, 33, faces charges of accessory to murder and third-degree arson.

A third suspect, 23-year-old Anthony Gross, was arrested Wednesday on charges of accessory to murder and third-degree arson. He was remanded to the Clark County Detention Center following his arrest. He is due to appear in court next week.

The 5-foot-9-inch, 250-pound Titus won titles at the June 1996 National Physique Committee USA Championships, and competed in Mr. Olympia events.

He pleaded guilty in Louisiana in April 1995 to conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute the party drug ecstasy, and served two years in jail for steroid-related offenses from 1997 to 1999.

Ryan is a past Fitness America and Fitness International winner and Fitness Olympia runner-up who worked as a loan officer for Silver State Mortgage in Las Vegas.

They married in June 2000, according to Clark County records.

I didn't know Titus was a former Mr. Olympia.

Richard Abowitz in the LA Times claims that Titus won the 2002 Olympia.
