Wow...um bro if that’s the case, why dump the two girls’ bodies in an oil tank?


quote:

Watts told investigators that he told Shanann he wanted a separation. He claimed that moments later, he saw, on the baby monitor in his bedroom, "Bella 'sprawled' out on her bed and blue and Shanann actively strangling Celeste." At that point, Watts said, he "went into a rage" and strangled his wife to death. He told police that afterwards, he put the bodies of his wife and two daughters into his work truck and took them to an oil site.

Exactly, but this has to be his absolute best defense.

If mom strangled the kids, that should be provable

This dude is not helping his case.

I had an affair, she tried to kill the kids, then I killed her.

Wowzers.

If he wanted to change the court of public opinion by playing a sympathy card he would have been better off saying she was a cheating whore and pregnant with another man’a baby.

All you have to do is generate some reasonable doubt. Some jurors might buy it.

Would have been a lot easier to prove if he left the bodies in place and immediately called the cops. Then the strangulation marks on the kids would be a from smaller hands than the marks on the wife's neck, and the kids' DNA would be under her fingernails.

Lying and hiding the bodies is what you do if you killed all three of them.

Apparently the defense wanted the state to test the necks of the kids for DNA, I suppose this is why. Not sure if you can get DNA off of someone who has been sitting in crude oil for days though.

Uh sure. Didn't he originally say he killed them all? He's a dead man.
