No.Watts (allegedly) said, his wife abused him...

Saw the allegation yesterday. And if reporting correct, more than one man claiming to have relationships with Watts.

To be expected from a guy who does a news conference seeking his families where abouts after disposing them in crude oil tanks.

I `m so interested in this case and want to be a arm chair detective


Just a lot of questions, why did he bury his wife and not put his kids in with her ? but put his kids into oil ?


was it a want to preserve them?

IIRC the judge said he wasn't going to tell the coroner how to do their job and denied issuance of a court order.

I'm sure the coroner and detectives got swabs from their necks.

A Colorado judge has denied a request by a defense attorney for a man accused of killing his pregnant wife and two daughters to require a coroner to collect DNA from the necks of the young girls.

Thank you.
Yeah. Case detectives in homicides usually present during the autopsy.

I think he put the girls in first then realized she wouldn't fit. The opening was small at the top of the tank. He didn't want to preserve anything.

Shudder.

When I heard that, my first thought was that he left the mom out in the open so she'd be found and he could get insurance money.

He probably thought they'd find her and assume someone had killed her in order to kidnap and have the girls. So he had to hide the girls and decided the oil would coat them and keep the odor of decaying flesh from leading police to the girls.

I'm interested to find out what happened to make him change his story. They must have found something major that didn't add up so he changed it to try to make it fit.

After watching the tv interviews it seemed to me he was trying to make us think his wife and kids left on their own. I think he never even considered their bodies would be found. He was just gonna’ act like it is a big mystery and happily move on with his life with whoever. He did have scratches on his neck that seemed to partially covered by his shirt.

I think he killed his children before his wife came home and killed her after she came home and went to bed.

What is heart breaking is she appeared to truly love him. He killed the children she adored and her. What a betrayal. Horrible.
