The Perfect Father

August 13, 2018

Chris Watts made the conscious decision to kill his entire family.

The Perfect Father plays out the events leading up to the murder of Bella, Celeste, and pregnant Shanann. It starts at the very beginning of their marriage. It was not long before marital issues snuck up on them. They were in their mid-twenties and they were going bankrupt. They were swimming in debt which just continuously got worse after having their first child together.

Chris and Shanann decided to move across the country to Fredrick, Colorado, where they soon began building their new home. Again, bankruptcy was on the horizon. Chris worked at Anadarko Petroleum and Shanann was quickly moving through the ranks of Le-Vel. They earned just enough to get by but were still living well above their means. But with Shanann working from home, she decided to take a six week vacation back to their hometown in North Carolina. This became the perfect opportunity for Chris to make a move on a woman in his office.

Chris began obsessing over this woman. In five and a half weeks he had fallen head over heels in love with this woman. He knew he was going to have to end it with Shanann, and end it fast.

We'll never actually know his reason behind killing Shanann, his baby girls and soon to be son, Nico.

His story has changed so many times, it's hard to keep up with.
But what we do know is that he plead guilty to multiple counts of first degree murder and is now serving five life sentences.
