Watts, in a letter as reported by the New York Post, offered up a vile excuse for killing his wife and daughters.
It would recalled that he strangled his wife, Shannan, and smothered his two daughters.
After the gruesome murders, Chris Watts buried his wife in a shallow grave, and dumped in daughters’ bodies.
Since their murders, he has been offering a vile excuse for his crimes
In a latest report, Watts in a letter secretly offered up a vile excuse for why he murdered his pregnant wife and two daughters, three and four, more than six years on from his horrific crimes.
Chris Watts, 36, strangled his partner Shanann – who was 15 weeks pregnant with their son – inside their five-bed family home in Frederick, Colorado, on August 13, 2018 after she came back from a business trip to Arizona, according to reports at the time.
He then took her body away in his truck with his two daughters, Bella, four, and Celeste, three, before smothering them both with a blanket. Watts buried his wife in a shallow grave, and dumped his daughters’ bodies in oil storage tanks.
In newly revealed letters, seen by the New York Post, Chris Watts says he sought refuge with his mistress Nichol Kessinger as she was ‘everything my wife wasn’t’, adding that pregnant Shanann was a ‘control freak.’
In the handwritten notes to Dylan Tallman, fellow inmate at Dodge Correctional Institution in Wisconsin, he indicated his marriage was unfulfilling as ‘she was really busy with her job and everything it required’, adding that he was often his daughters’ primary carer.
According to him, he was tempted away from his marriage after he met Nichol following some weight loss in 2017.
