All New Episode Features Kelly Ryan of Las Vegas

NEW YORK—MAY 18, 2011 – A fitness power couple turns up the heat in an all new episode of Oxygen’s “Snapped,” premiering on a so new night, Thursday, May 19 at 10PM ET/PT. Each chilling installment offers gritty details, interviews and a deeper look into the minds of the women who snapped.

As celebrities in the body building world of Las Vegas, husband and wife Craig Titus and Kelly Ryan revel in the fruits of their labor. Fancy cars, stylish clothes, and hard drugs are a regular part of their fast lifestyle. As their mini-empire grows, they seek assistance in the form of Melissa James, a dancer hoping to make the big time in Las Vegas. Melissa cannot resist Chris’ charm and their relationship quickly becomes more than professional. The love triangle infuriates Kelly and triggers her competitive nature – this was just another competition she refused to lose. When Melissa’s body is found in Kelly’s deserted, torched car, Craig and Kelly quickly abandon their reign in Las Vegas and seek solace in friends away from Sin City – and they cannot resist bragging about a recent conquest. Was the couple merely taking a break from the fast lane or did Kelly make a sinister play to ensure a victory of love?

“Snapped” features everyday seemingly average moms, wives and girlfriends who are accused of committing murder. Did they really do it? And if so, why? Was it a cheating spouse, years of constant abuse or that dirty dish in the sink? Whatever the situation, the women share a common bond–they all allegedly SNAPPED!

For the “Snapped” super fan www.oxygen.com has all new photos, bonus videos and message boards for fans to chat and discuss each episode.
