No folks, you didn't misread that title. I don't want really want to comment on this all that much, since it's a serious ordeal, so I'm gonna post the information that was given out in a press release by Lt. Tom Monahan of the LVPD. Anyone with information is urged to call CrimeStoppers at 385-5555.
On December 14, 2005 at approximately 4:40 a.m., a trucker was traveling on State Route 160 ( Blue Diamond Rd) from Pahrump toward Las Vegas, when he spotted a fire in the desert about a half-mile from the road. When firefighters extinguished the blaze, they observed what appeared to be human remains in the trunk of the car.
The remains were confirmed to be that of a human, and under the circumstances, it is being investigated as a homicide.
***UPDATE***
Investigation into above incident has resulted in arrest warrants being issued for three suspects.
1. Titus, Craig Michael, DOB: 01/14/1965, 5ft 8 inches, 225 lbs., brown hair with hazel eyes. Hair is very short.
2. Ryan, Kelly Ann, DOB: 07/10/1972, 5ft 3 inches, 120 lbs., brown hair with green eyes.
Titus has a no-bail arrest warrant charging him with murder and third degree arson.
Ryan has a no-bail arrest warrant charging her with accessory to murder and third degree arson.
A third suspect has been identified as 23 year old Anthony Gross. Gross is in custody and has been booked into the Clark County Detention Center on charges of accessory to murder and third degree arson.
Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan are husband and wife and were living in the southwest area of Las Vegas. Both are successful body builders and hold numerous titles in the body building and fitness industry.
At this time it is unclear where the two suspects may have fled.

Pro Bodybuilding Weekly will present a special report on Friday Decmber 23rd as the focus shifts to the events surrounding Craig Titus & Kelly Ryan. Just days after murder charges were filed against two of the fitness industry's biggest stars, bodybuilding talk radio will explore the facts surrounding this tragedy...in search of THE TRUTH! Join hosts Dan Solomon and Bob Cicherillo for this special broadcast at 5pm est (2pm pst) http://www.ProBodybuildingWeekly.com
innocent people don't run...if the girl od'ed - the thing to do is to call 911 - notpack a body in their own personal car and burn it and the body. A psychopath responds the same way to the statement that "a human has been murdered and burned to death" as a most would respond to the statement that "it's dinner time" - as if it were no big deal...and apparently, these two psychopaths, knowing they would get caught, tried to run but have no conscious about killing and burning somebody, then going to get a pedicure...
I wonder will a steroid rage get the blame, as usual?
I really hope that there is no support from the bodybuilding industry for these two! Any people as vain and selfish as these two [hve proven themselves to be] deserve the worst punishment. Probably a good thing in this country that the punishment doesn't fit the crime! This couple has always been known as being sexual deviants - partner swapping, etc...the list of this pairs crude and vulgar lifestyle has seemed to excite them into being more crude and more vulgar! Only God knows what happened and why, but the two are obviously guilty...very sick people that really need to be held accountable for their actions.

Hey, wait a minute here! Just because they have a "non-traditional" sexual lifestyle doesn't make them killers! Truthfully, I don't even see what "partner swapping" has to do with killing people or how you got from one to (jumping to the conclusion of) the other.
I have to wonder about the motive. Did the "other woman" threaten to tell Kelly she was having an affair with her husband, Craig, then Craig, feeling that she would expose this, did her in along with his friend. I think she knew something. Why else would he want to kill her. Kelly jusy went along with it because she really thought the girl od'd. Hiding the body would keep them from any investigation and bad press.
I agree with the other poster; Kelly and Craig's ALLEGED sex lives have nothing to do with whether or not they committed murder! No matter how guilty they look or what things seem like on the surface, the fact is no one knows the facts except the parties involved, so anything else is completely speculative.
People seem a bit eager to burn people at the stake in this country when they know nothing about the facts at all. I don't know any of the parties involved, but my heart goes out to the victim's mother and I believe that our justice system will do well to uncover the FACTS. Thank God we live in America and women can do as they wish with their bodies and everyone is innocent until proven guilty. Get a grip people.
They are both stupid and selfish anyway, so who cares… They can just die. How dumb you have to be to do something like that…
No wonder bodybuilding is not that popular anymore if people like that are it’s representative…
It's one thing to swap partners, but to kill someone, give me a break. This is a job for CSI Las Vegas. Get Gil Grissom and Katherine Willows on the case. They will uncover the truth. The evidence will speak for itself...it never lies. Craziness people, like they're not going to get caught. Wake up and smell the coffee!!
Yeah, you say it right! But what do you except... They're bodybuilder, they lift weight... Maybe they were watching a movie about that just before and wanted to do the same thing, daaaaaaaaa...
If you ask me, people need to think before they act. You can't just act on impulse. If you are going to gang bang, then you have to deal with the repercussions. Rock on!
Well done guys, first you act, then you think...
How stupid is that.
If Kelly was "guilty" why the hell hang around and get your toe nails painted? - Just a thought.
After reading everybody's comments respectively, bottom line is, if you find a dead body 1st thing you do is call 911! anything else points to guilt.
Kelly Ryan was one of my favorite fitness models. I hope I never see her in a magazine again. Guilty or not, Steriods or not, they do have common sense. They took someones life and thought they could get away with it.
I have been reading about how nice and great they are. Well we don't know what goes on behind closed doors. Everyones persona is different when put into different situations. I wonder will publicity help them not be guilty, or will they do little time and community serves?
What was she thinking? "I'm in Mass now, nobody knows anything here. Now I can get that pedicure that I had to cancel back at home". I also wonder will steriods get the blame or could someone just be sick in the head for once in this line of work.
Kelly & Craig need to turn themselves in. I think the majority of people, based on the information in the news, believe that they are guilty. If they are not guilty, they will have the opportunity to tell their side of the story. If they are guilty then they will not prolong the inevitable. They will get caught. I do not know them yet I am certain that if they are so arrogant/ignorant to think they could take part in such a crime and then go into a nail salon for 'treatment', they're not smart enough to keep from getting caught again. Some of this country's most notorious killers were methodical about their plans for years yet ultimately got caught. The family of this young girl whose life was taken so grotesquely and prematurely, deserves answers now so that closure can be brought when the pain is still so new, so real, so intensely raw. Her family is dying inside a little more everyday, not knowing, so why make them wait years to find out what they could find out now? Why make them relive this nightmare in the future when they ARE caught and the truth will come out? Their crime has not ended and anyone who helps or supports them is also guilty of prolonging the pain and suffering of this young girls family. Sexual life-style, who cares? Bodybuilders, who cares? If they committed this crime they are nothing more than murders...
Has anyone heard any new information on this case? I have been trying to find news on the couple and the last I've been able to find is that they were arrested and in jail.
I myself am going to suspend judgment until the jury has meted theirs. The evidence on the surface appears to convict Kelly and Craig in trial by media but then again that is how the media maligned Bernhard Goetz, OJ Simpson, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jackson, Mike Tyson, and Robert Blake.
All but one of those were subsequently adjudicated innocent by juries of their own respective peers in spite of the prosecutors' efforts to build their reputations on the scalps of such public figures; and those prosecutors' efforts backfired badly in each case.
This is why IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT the Clark County (the Nevada county that contains Las Vegas) prosecutor conduct a RESPONSIBLE case and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police and the Clark County Sheriffs Office conduct an ETHICAL AND RESPONSIBLE probe into Kelly and Craig.
If the probe is responsible and the prosecutor remains ethical, ie, if s/he seeks REAL JUSTICE FOR ALL and NOT just two scalps to build his or her career, then the case will contain significant merit, even if the jury acquits both of them.
But in the event of the acquittal Kelly and Craig need to be left alone and protected from any lawsuits related in any way to these charges. In the event of conviction the both must face the full face of the consequences for their crimes.
GUILTING AS CHARGED...
I have been a fan of the Oxygen magazine, which Kelly Ryan graced the pages of many times. However, it does not matter who the alleged murderers were, or what kind of life style they led. The fact of the matter is that it may take up to a year for the trial to commence. Until then, all of the accusations on this website are jumping to conclusions - nothing is for certain yet; that is why there will be a TRIAL. Those who stuck by Craig or Kelly before should not drop everything just because they are suspects; we may never know the truth, or we may find out they are not guilty. Please dont' make fools of yourselves. Those of you who accuse Kelly and Craig of being sexually deviant, vulgar, and vain, are showing others how judgemental YOU are. Please leave it up to the people who actually have some experience in the field of forensics and homocide investigation to determine what happened, okay?
p.s. - everyone likes to be a little sexually devient sometimes - if say you have never been tempted by drugs, never been sexually promiscuous, or never taken pride in your appearance, then you are kidding yourselves and fooling no one!!!
Never judge someone until you know all the facts.
What happened to Kelly? This is tragic. I feel so sorry for her family. Her mother past recently. Her father is heartbroken. Was she that naive? The drugs, the swinging lifestyle. Wow! I can't comprehend the total lack of compassion by her and Titus. Worrying about their image. This truly is a sick world.
