Watching it now. He shouldn’t have touched those babies. Leave them out of it.

The wife was annoying as fukk. She was a real bytch. I could tell she was annoying. He should have never married her.......

Was watching it with the wife and she couldn’t finish it towards the end when he started going in detail about how he killed the kids

i'm not even gonna lie, me and my wife broke down hearing this shyt. this piece of shyt had no remorse until he was caught, he was just going to try and skip town with that trashy ex-crackish-looking gf of his.

 

[El Jefe]

Has anybody watched yet... this was crazy.

Going to watch later but I followed the story in real time and it was madness embodied. Especially how he disposed his daughters, that shyt was monstrous.

This don’t make no sense, his wife didn’t seem anymore annoying or needy than any other woman. He had to have a strong hate for her or there’s something more to it.
Or he’s just mentally ill

[BXKingPin82]

Great doc.

When she told him she was pregnant I feel like that was the moment he decided he was gonna kill her. No way was he gonna allow that baby to be born. It was just one more tether to his wife. And he was ready to bounce with his girlfriend. Also is it just me or the girlfriend looked very similar to his shannan just skinnier.

The wife was a total millennial Karen. Right down to the mlm scheme lol. I really like how they framed the documentary, her personality really showed. Not in a bias way to make her look evil, but everybody was shown through an authentic lens. White women are always portrayed as the damsel in distress, but this
Doc took a different approach.
Also, let's be real. The wife was obsessed with flossing her perfect family on social media, if he divorced her and made her a twice divorcee she would make his life hell. We all know now vindictive white women can get. He will be ostracized from the community or worse.


Chris watts seems like a narcissist. He really thought if he played the laid back guy, people wouldn't suspect him. Then he gets to the interrogation room and they start assuaging his ego and low self-esteem and the insecure fat guy came out. Smdh. Not only is he evil but he is also really stupid. He seems to love being the 'good nice guy" in every instance but in reality is duplicitous and cunning himself. Constantly gaslighting, not just his wife but anybody he meets. Makes it seem that he's chill and "nice" but in reality he is seething with rage. But nobody suspects that sociopathy from the white guy. He reminds me of a couple of white guys I used to work with.

I didnt think the wife was too demanding. She just married a lame and realized she was trapped and frustrated
If ol girl had snapper that makes a dude kill his family, that's box she can keep

Nah she wasn't demanding, I also think she had some introspection by the end and could see how her behaviour might have affected the marriage. She obviously has self awareness and empathy traits that Chris never had to begin with.

That's the sad part, she was being human to a psycho who was barely human himself.

Rip to shannan and the babies honestly, the babies broke my heart.

Watching this now..disgusting I remember seeing a thread on this back when it happened.

Dude basically met and married her as a L7 and over the course of their marriage he got into working out and got attention from a "hotter" white broad and lost his fukking mind.

When he tried to pin the murder of the kids on his wife and said he killed her in a rage over her killing his babies I almost believed him just because of how needy his wife seemed to be from what was shown in the documentary. But then when the cops asked him where the babies were and he said he just tossed their little bodies into a 20 ft oil silo I was like ...if he gave a damn about those kids he wouldn't have tossed them away like they were bags of garbage. That's when I knew he was guilty of everything.

Bad Liars 101: when you feed them a story and they instantly run with it. That blonde interrogation lady was whooping his ass left and right. She suggested that story and instantly that’s the story he runs with to his pops. They knew he was lying immediately.

Yea, y’all tripping. The way she texted was just like my wife. They say she was bossy and shyt but that didn’t come off in the texts or anything. I GUESS in the Santa Claus video she came off a little bytchy but for the most part, she was just a regular wife with 2.5 kids who felt neglected by her husband.
