New Developments in the Watts Murder Case
There is now new developments in the murder investigation of Shanann Watts and her two daughters. According to the Coloradoan, Chris Watts is stating that Shanann strangled their two children before he became enraged and strangled her.
The article states that Chris was having an affair with a fellow co-worker at Anadarko Petroleum. The "emotional conversation" that was talked about in his on tv interview apparently is that he was wanting a separation from Shanann. Chris told the investigators that he had left the bedroom after the conversation and when he returned, he saw Bella sprawled out on the bed and his wife, Shanann, in the process of strangling Celeste. This seems like it very well could be the reason why the defense attorney for Chris Watts was requesting a DNA test to be done on the girl's necks.
This case seems to be getting more bizarre as it progresses.
