To not only kill his baby girls and Innocent wife but to then spit on her memory like that instead of just manning up and confessing. A coward til the very end.
Well obviously if youre going to murder someone you wont confess to it unless that person was killed for some kind of reason you want to make public. Nonsense stance. The murder is bad and evil, him not confessing is normal.
So I am 58 and have been rejected by every woman I ever asked out. I have been a good man and make a good living. I have nothing but loneliness in my life. This man had a beautiful wife and children. Something I have dreamed about my whole life. How can you throw it all away?
Ooohhh nooo hun, do u live in Canada i know some beautiful women at that age with a great life looking for another chapter in their life ,i can matchmaker for u guys....
They said the oldest girl fought for her life and bit her tongue several times before she died. I pray this evil bastard gets beaten daily in prison. I pray for Shannon and those babies.
5 years later, and this case feels like it was yesterday. This guy had it all & it threw it all away. I cant even wrap my head around hurting a child. Let alone my own flesh & blood. Sickening.

@@sage_morales8535 He was a narcissist and blinded with arrogance. I believe he thought that he was going to get away with it and didn't need a lawyer because of his self-absorption.
Part of me wants to be live this is not real!!!!!🤬🤬🤬 but in reality, we know what Chris did!!!!! And he will pay for his sins!! God got him now!!! RIP Chris Watts!!!!!
I lost my son briefly in a crowded museum once. I started to search frantically for him right away. This lady, with my son in tow, came up to me like two minutes later. Said she found me just by searching for someone with a panicked expression on their face. Chris Watts showed nothing. He didn't give two shits about his kids.
Evidence showed that the children had been in the oil days before their mom died. So they died while she was out of town. If he murdered her in a fit of rage to honour his daughters you would think they would have a plot with a beautiful headstone. Not an oil grave.
Helena Milton I thought I had heard it on CNN. They were supposedly in there days before they were found. And they were left at home with dad while mom went on her business trip so there was speculation that he had killed them before mom got home at 2 am
Confession @ 57:22 Edit: Thanks for the 3k+ likes & I love seeing people get angry on the internet in the comment section over nothing. Let me get my popcorn.
If you watched the documentary you can see it wasn't so perfect. His wife was an alpha and he felt emasculated as a man and his new girlfriend made him feel special and appreciated. It's unfortunate that he couldn't just do what most people do and separate or divorce and felt he had to resort to this horrible act.
@Allie, if you want to be a comedy writer, use youtube's captions. It's hilarious af. To say it's not the most accurate is an understatement. Furthermore, in videos like this one where EVERY word is of consummate importance, a semi-accurate translation ain't gonna cut it.
SO CALLED CONFESSION STARTS @43:10, BUT YOU WILL NEED A CUP AGAINST THE SCREEN, AND 2 PAIR OF HEARING AIDES ON TO HEAR IT. IF I WERE YOU I WOULD GO AHEAD AND GO TO PART 8, WHERE YOU WILL ONLY NEED 1 PAIR OF HEARING AIDES, AND MAYBE EARBUGS IF YOUR HEARING IS ANYTHING LIKE MINE.
He doesn’t really care, he just wants to look like he’s a good guy/gentleman and that he’s capable of selfless love. He’s not, obviously. The whore was clearly just his narcissistic obsession at the moment. That is all, completely shallow, selfish, and surface level.
I like how she threw the suggestion that Shannan hurt the girls out there. She might have got him thinking that was a way out, blame it on Shannan somehow, which is what he originally tried to do.
Me too. Except that the lady was blinking her eyes. My 11 yr old said that is how I look at him when I am waiting for him to confess to whatever lie he is telling me at the moment. It 90% of the time works. The other 10% he gives himself away by talking without moving his lips, if your kids do this you know what I mean.
@@jattdadanda I feel CW being the character he was/is would have bowed quite quickly to the pressure such was his personality. Listen to his prison interview 1 n 2
Shades of Jodi Arias, who claimed the victim Travis was a pedophile in court, trying to make the victim look like a monster, when Jodi was the real monster.
9:00 he says “ I saw her and she took my breath away “ Ironic when he literally took his baby girls’ breath away until they suffocated and died. Rot in hell chris watts.
The only time this man gets even a little bit emotional is when he talks about the mistress. No emotions at all for his pregnant wife or innocent little girls. Sickening
I don't think "mistress" is quite the right word. This guy was on the edge of not being able to support himself in a single room or to pay adequate child support if and when his wife left. His having a mistress is beyond the sky and the clouds of possibility: he managed to get himself a quickie or a one-night stand.
I believe to this day he has loved her more than his wife, 2 daughters, & that baby boy he so wanted because she was fully involved no doubt about it. Her truck was parked on that street the night of the murders, she had been in that basement in that bed down there, her phone pinged in that neighborhood that morning around the same time he was loading the bodies, she got him oxy to take w/ him to NC to drug her & cause a miscarriage which caused her to get sick & spot blood (he said he would go to the grave with that secret of who he got them from) they had a plan but it didn’t work so on to plan b & obviously that didn’t work out well either but even with all the evidence they have against her they wanted Chris & she literally is getting away with murder & I whole heartedly believe that because there is to much circumstantial evidence but Chris loves that girl still & wont turn on her because either way he’s doing life. He is now claiming he is innocent & is trying to get a new trial. He said he believes god sent him there for a time & a reason but his life is to be lived in the free world because he still has so much to do & he KNOWS he will get out soon when he gets a new trial. So someone else murdered them & told him where the bodies are so he could confess a false confession & his supporters believe this bs & have been stated that the time line puts him no where around the area to commit the crime & he was set up that the real murderer is still free; these people are as crazy as he is! I pray that eventually he tells the whole truth so this Nikki monster gets locked up because there is no time on being charged with murder & that’s exactly what should have already happened! Btw he never told her about the mistress nor asked her to separate for the record that’s another one of his stories.
The audacity he had to blame shannan of killing her daughters knowing that she can’t defend herself bc she’s dead . So messed up , I could never live with myself
Her suggestion of Shannan doing this is a technique used called "the alternative technique," and his dumbass fell for it. He thought it would make him look like less of a monster, and that's the whole point of why she used it.
Watching this is so disgusting because he's blaming his dead wife for killing their children when he did it all along, killed all three. So despicable how he's lying to his own father.
Some stupid idiot somewhere probably believed him to. So horrible to take her life and then run her name in the ground as the killer of them. Straight up stole the james franco plot in the 2 mins he had to make up a story after he failed the polygraph. My dude, everyone fails the polygraph thats why they dont use them in court. That tatic worked this time though, got his pos ass.
@@AE5LEHCtheir conclusion is that he murdered his family. Guy already blew his credibility by lying five hundred times, his word means nothing on the stand if it doesn't match the evidence, so all they wanted was a confession no matter what flavor. He got life without parole, these cops and the prosecutors did their jobs.
The female detective is a badass. Plays the role perfectly. Down to earth. Rational. Compassionate yet stern. Sees through all bullsh*t. Almost like a school teacher. The male detective however is an Absolute legend. Scary how calm he is. Calculated. Cunning. Always 3 steps ahead. This is a master class of interrogation tactics.
It’d be scary for a fit male like myself to be alone in a room with him. Dunno what kind of self defense she’s taken, but it’s gotta be crazy to be interviewing a murderer. A lot can happen in 5-10 seconds. Mad props to her she’s def badass

FLYING DREAM PRODUCTIONS I’m gonna go ahead and guess English isn’t your first language, because you make very little sense. You also clearly don’t understand hyperbole. As to your accusation, I’m doing just fine getting on with my personal life and also hating Chris Watts (who murdered a woman and 2 children BTW and deserves as much hate as possible). What are you his mother or something?? 😭😭😭 Boo hoo.
@@thereisnocarolinHR Your guess is as off as your ability to utilize hyperbole. And the fact that you justify your venom with the obvious point that Watts did a horrible thing, while concurrently assuming I must have an allegiance (of any measure) to Watts is exactly my point, hero.
For anyone interested in the psychology of this: These two are PROS at getting the truth out of people. “So now we need to talk about what actually happened and I feel like you’re ready for that” They are giving him suggestions constantly that he’s ready to come clean - which eventually break his barriers and convince him that he in fact IS ready. The man says everyone we talked to said you are a good guy and then goes on to separate the image and persona of “good guy Chris” from the Chris that isn’t telling the truth and may of done something that isn’t like him. By separating the action of not telling the truth and the real “good guy Chris” persons it allows him to feel more comfortable in telling the truth and convinces Chris that he in fact is not being himself. “2 Chris’s” Genius. They’re also saying things that Chris knows to be true of himself like “knowing what to pack in a bag” in an emergency and “knowing the book he reads to his daughters” Chris knows these things as true and this allows the agent to suggest something that may or may not be true once Chris agrees in his head that the things before were true. It’s called a yes ladder in persuasion. These guys are pros
The male investigator uses a soft voice and speaks to Chris calmly to pull him in to confess. Female investigator knows how to work in tandem with the other investigator. Excellent work.
That's a known tactic. The police will be quiet, and stare, and most people will feel uncomfortable and then say something to break the silence. Everything they are doing is a tactic. Everything.
@@footballskillstutorial2533reight specially for himself. After he murderd his whole family he cries about going about going to jail. What happened to the option divorce.
For those looking for it, at 45:06 he claims she hurt the children; at 45:11 he admits he hurt her; at 47:31 he says "they were blue" and he freaked out and "did the same thing to her."
“Did the same thing to her” he totally slipped lol. That means he admitted to strangling not one, but two people. His wife and his kid. That’s pretty damning considering he slaughtered all 4 of them.
I think he regrets killing them and is actually being honest when he says he wants them back, because he doesn't want to deal with this bullshit pile he jumped into with he killing them. He's not sorry for killing them he's sorry he got caught.
I agree. If he felt any regret he would of came out with everything up front, instead he said she killed the kid's so he killed her so he could maybe get them to feel sorry for him and be lenient on him at sentencing. Why would anyone hate him if he lost control and killed her by strangling her to death if she killed his kid's? Nobody should in their right mind believe a word out of this man's mouth. I just can't even imagine what was going through his poor little girl's mind's when he was smothering them. That was supposed to be the one person to protect them from something like that not the one doing it. It's seriously sad and sickening weather you believe he's a sociopath or what not a real parent could never hurt their child. He's got something not right in his head.
I believe the people he killed re with the angles in heaven and once he dies he will see them and he will be sent to hell to rot and the devil is ganna pipe him up 24/7
I'm sorry I beg to differ on that he looks gratified and relieved and didn't have a feeling of human decency especially in this other video that shows the cops bodycam and he is just texting on his phone unconcerned about the whereabouts of his wife and children
When you're a psychopath, it's definitely easier. Think that you don't feel empathy, compassion, guilt, or love. All feelings, even for your own family, are learned. Narcissism is closely related to psychopathy, and even in this case, he only regrets himself. A real human monster.
Too bad the cops watched it with CW present because guaranteed he would have verbally disputed what the video shows. Although we wouldn’t have seen the dead giveaway body language.
newname newname34 I’m just saying it would have been another lie he would have been caught in and twisted in the wind. By watching it, he knew he had to align his story with the video.
On the same day Chris murdered his family, right after he buried them in crude oil and dirt, he called his girls preschool to unenroll them, then he called his realtor to put his house up for sale. I’m not sure why he didn’t just stand right outside the police station with a sign that said look at me. There’s no difference really, one is just a little faster than the other, in terms of getting caught.
@Dymond WINGFIELD Are we forgetting that he actually murdered his family? I guess you think we should interrogate criminals like this in Chuck-e cheese with cupcakes and song time lol
That clock is SOOOO intentionally placed in the room. It's enough to drive you crazy with its vicious ticking away so LOUDLY when there's silence in the room.
balaji is right. isolated sitting space, so you cant feel occupied, no windows or decorations. psychology is something every human thinks they know better than all the others, but time and time again, we fall victim to too similar of situations. this case is incredibly interesting. not at all cool, but academically fascinating.
I can accept a failed relationship and wanting to break away, but for the life of me I can't comprehend how murdering your pregnant wife and 2 little girls becomes an option and a reality. All he had to do was walk away.
What I can't understand is, five weeks prior, he loved, loved his wife and kids. How in sam heil do you go from deep love to absolute hate and I'm going to kill you and your children? At what point do you totally disassociate yourself from deep love to the kind of hate that he has for his beautiful wife and he killed three babies and dragged her lifeless body to his truck and Lord God he put trash bags on his wife to trick his young daughters and laid her at their little feet! You gotta be a monster to drop any child in oil vats and your own!? Holding their hands, looking into their faces dead or alive before they hit the oil !? Animals will fight to their death for their babies. What is he? He carried this out like he's done it before!? And snapped is a tv show! He planned this!
@@dailee9813 I don't think he loved her. I think their marriage was a joke and he just went along with it. I think he was angry with his wife, and himself and rather then just walk away he took all of that out on her and the kids. I think the other girl changed everything.
You know he's guilty right away. Why? Because if my wife and children were missing and, of course I didn't do it, and they were wasting time investigating me, I'd be screaming angry at them to stop wasting their time on me and go find my wife and children. Not calmy try to convince them.
DutchFurnace doesn’t always work like that... a lot of innocent people will do that but if the evidence is stacked up against u.... u going to jail even if your act of real or fake like his
I was thinking the same thing and I garauntee it is. More than once I think he sat there alone just looking at that clock (at least it seemed from this angle like he was). It was probably slowly driving him insane.
Interrogation rooms are simple, unformfortable chairs, no light switch or thermostat near by, fluorescent lighting, clock making noise could very well be part of the formula.
These departments really need to invest in a table-top audio recorder, they're like $40 and will give you fantastic audio quality during interrogations.
@Tyler Durden I'm positive that if you were to be asked to type out a transcription of this entire recording, there would have been many parts of it that you couldn't do it. It's not an original recording, they used inferior equipment, they covered their mouths or got quiet at moments, plus a small room with bare walls is not the best acoustical set up for sound. As a vocalist and musician, that depends on a sound board crew, I would have words for them if I sounded this horrible. LOL
No kidding....as a vocalist and musician....this recording drove me batshit crazy, as it would if my sound crew wasn't doing their job right! I even tried using my Bose headphones with an Equalizer over my Panasonic Home Theater's Sound Surround speakers....it didn't help at all. Too muffled and there were echoes for most of the GOOD parts of this recorded copy... of however many copies of the original recording it is. I wanted to hear the whole thing. Ugh.
I was a detective for over 20 years and we made sure that the clock was ticking loud. The inmate get less stressed and confess to his crime easily it’s a psychological thing.
Feeding him the lesser crime of killing Shanann because she killed the girls, is a common tactic. This leads to confessing in stages. These detectives are amazing. They are just human and this takes a massive toll. One detective got PTSD after finding the bodies and hasn't worked since.
"you took care of your wife, you took care of your daughters, you're very good at taking care of them".... I see what they did there. He took care of them alright..
Yeah making him feel comfortable enough putting that pressure on him to identify as the good man that he's so desperately wants to look like as a covert narcissist even though that's a fake mask that he wears a narcissist is desperate to be the good guy and to look like the good guy So that pressure made it even more so where he would want to do the right thing until the truth to keep looking like the good guy to the cops
I've watched many--too many--crime documentaries and I've seen outstanding interviews conducted by seasoned detectives but I've never seen two detectives more in sync with their methods and timing than these two. They're like a well-oiled machine!
I don't agree, this case is a pure treasure in the history of humanity, I am sure we're gonna learn a lot about psychology, about killers and so much more, I discover so much about me watching this. I mean, the questions from the police officers, the behaviour of the killer after his crime, all this is so rare and precious, we have to work on that case to prevent other events like this or even to know more avout humanity.
This guy is the most dangerous person you could ever get hooked up with because until he did what he did he was mostly normal what a disgusting person to be able to kill his little girlsand pregnant wife unreal
And the way he sat there and consistently LIED! “I love my girls I SWEAR to God I did nothing to them” “I swear i told the truth on the lie detector test” “I’m not lying I SWEAR” “I’m not like that ask ANYBODY that knows me “ WOWWWWWW chronic liars are SCARY
At 22:00 when she starts asking why he hasn't shed a tear or shown emotion, it's actually a ploy. The cops don't really care whether you show emotion or not. Usually an innocent person would respond, "Well, look, that's just how I am, ok??" The guilty person will try to shore up the incongruity by suddenly making themselves cry or show emotion. "Oh -- THIS is what you want to see? THIS is what I need to do, to make you believe me? Ok. I can make that happen." And that's exactly what he made a feeble attempt at doing.
Same thing with polygraphs. They don’t actually mean anything as it’s impossible to 100% predict if a person is lying. She just used it as a ploy to get him to think that it works
Arthur Fleck the way a polygraph works is they ask you simply questions like what color is my shirt or what’s 5+5 to get a record of your heart beat when your calm and telling the truth. Than they hit you with the serious questions and than that’s when they see the change in your heart beat or other things they detect. Everything changes when your trying to lie, wether you try and stay calm, your body will change.
THE DUDE also played on this idea that his wife was controlling, have the female detective be the controlling aggressive one, let the man be the comfort friend, plays to his own sense of victimization
@@HannahEMPGaming exactly she even set him up by saying did she hurt the kids and you did something out of spite that's how he even got got the whole idea
don't be fooled by the the big fancy house it doesn't mean life is great they had a ton of debt he was probably stressed out to the max i mean he's only 33 and he's got grey hair
@@truthfilter no, they were financially stable, mostly thanks to his wife. What he wanted was a new life with his mistres, without kids and a questionable wife on his back. Also he doesn't wanna pay alimony. He's a sick fuck.
Kphopeevila I felt the same when I started watching this story unfold. I hope he suffers with the memory of what he has done for the rest of his miserable life.
He literally committed the most vile and evil act of senseless murder. There's literally no reason at all he killed them. No mistress is worth killing your own wife and daughters for! This guy is so sick. poor sweet little girls and the horror they must have gone through.
From South Africa here. Are there more international people following this case? Anyhow. The ticking of that clock made me finally confess to myself that im allergic to my dog.
It's called acting... they knew nothing of an affair until he talked about. No psychology here just lying to get a confession... All i see is bad acting from someone who has seen too many movies
26michaeluk dr Phil did a segment on this case and he mentions that Chris because a narcissist, if he got a divorce he would still have ties to his wife, financial responsibilities etc etc and he was already in debt, but if he murdered her and got away with it he would get money from the life insurance policy of his children and wife, plus he would be the centre of attention and get all the sympathy, he's definitely a psychopath and a narcissist.
@@laurenfinney9762 Money and being the center of attention over 4 human lives. I'm really into true crime but these people killing their significant others and children shock me every time. Such a callous thing to do. Thanks for the info. Much appreciated.
Napah Shadah right. Been thinking the same exact thing for the last 40 minutes. Takes me back to when I would try to listen to my parents arguing through the door because I did some stupid shit in school
The moment you realize you are suspected of murder you end the interview and get an attorney. Jeez this guy dug his own grave and burried himself in it.
Love how he sits there, rambling on about what a good person his mistress is & defending her & worried about the police going after her, yet throws Shanann under the bus, blaming her for killing the children. What a piece of work
@Lady Day Q: WTF did NK do to this weak turd to make him commit all the horrific killing of his own kids? A: According to you, NK provided sex with ONE additional woman to his list that stood only AT one.
There's no word that perfectly describes what I think of this man. He killed his wife, and continued on slapping her face from beyond the grave. Blaming her for what he did was the ultimate slap on her face. How can a human being be so vile and evil.
😔 I know. Hes rotten to the core. Evil and stupid man. I cant imagine what Shannans friends and family feel. To lose her and the children and he tries to make her out to be the cause.
@@lauramc5688 Do you have proof that the wife didn't kill the babies and then strangle herself? Poor guy got blamed for everything, he falsely confessed due to confusion and aggressive actions for the interrogators.
First, this female detective that submitted the polygraph is a badass. I'm thoroughly impressed. He may have felt trepidacious about taking a polygraph, and may have even backed out at the last second, but not after she gave him the buddy treatment lulling him into a false sense of security. I'm shocked (but not really) that in 2018 people STILL talk to the police without a lawyer. You can only LOSE by speaking to the police when your a suspect, innocent or not. Second, don't know if you all have been paying attention to that clock on the wall while fast-forwarding through the dull parts, but they leave him alone for up to 20 minutes several times. That's on purpose. After all the distractions of ppl, an talking and questions, etc, the detectives will give them time to sit there alone in with their thoughts and WORRIES: "What did I say? Did I pass? When did I say I left the house? What's talking them so long!" It's just another way to break their will.
I think the logic on the lawyer part is that "innocent people don't need lawyers." But innocent people *do* get falsely convicted of crimes, so if you're ever in a situation where you're being asked serious questions, your best bet is to ask for a lawyer.
Totally agree. If your wife dies falling down the stairs and the police start asking you if you and your wife had problems. Shut up. Get a lawyer. If a detective asks, "Did you recently have an argument with the victim? Shut up, Get a lawyer. Or, can you come town to the police station and take a blood, urine or polygraph test. Shut up. Get a lawyer.
Would of definitely got a lawyer the moment they even assumed it might be me.. If they don't have body's they can't prove anything. BUT .. That GPS would of been the thing that got him and they more than likely would have searched the work site he was at and would of found shannans body and then there was hair on one of the lids of the tanks.. IF he was smart.. He probably could of got away with it
Henry Ventura That couldn’t be farther from the truth. Clearly you’ve never worked in Emergency Services. I’m a firefighter (saying that because most people assume I’m a cop) and have known several detectives in my life, and they’re the ones that care the most about nailing people like Chris.
Thats what I was thinking I couldnt do their job and that women must have nerves of steel becuase she knew he was lying from the get go but remained calm like it was a normal convo she didnt let on for a second she knew I bet she's great at poker
These two investigators are f****** good and I don't really even know what good is when it comes to their job but I am really impressed these two deserve promotions holyshit they're good
good ones. they could of written all the things that dont add up. so he can see how many things are stacked up against him and why he is better off confessing now instead of going against a judge and jury
@@azcrum he should come clean what he did was f****** atrocious he shouldn't even be allowed to live on planet Earth anymore they need to stick him in an oil drum f****** piece of s***
That's because real police work on murder cases and serious crimes. They're not all incompetent bullying pigs, these are the guys that really keep society in check. They're not the fat traffic cop handing out fines and kidnapping people for weed possession.
Let me get this straight… Cameras were on the house filming every move. His work had a tracker on the truck every ten minutes. How did he think he was going to get away with this. He should have called the police immediately after he killed his wife.
It is very hard to believe, Chris was alone when all of this happened and Chris killed his whole family... I think Nicole Kessenger was involved in some way... I don't believe she is an innocent person.... Nicole Kessenger had something to do with Chris and the killing of Chris's family... Chris would have not done this by himself....
@@carolecompton9270I think Shannan caught Nichole in the house and an argument began and Nichole told Chris to kill her and he couldn't and Nicole killed her then killed the kids so they couldn't talk. Imagine I'm sure she doing this to another man as we speak.
Confession begins at 43:10. if that's what you came for..

Oh yeah, I worked in a museum. I could always find the parent with the missing kid by their expression and body language.
easyguitarsongs 😂 uh huh that’s what happened alright.
Evidence showed that the children had been in the oil days before their mom died. So they died while she was out of town. If he murdered her in a fit of rage to honour his daughters you would think they would have a plot with a beautiful headstone. Not an oil grave.

The only time this man gets even a little bit emotional is when he talks about the mistress. No emotions at all for his pregnant wife or innocent little girls. Sickening
Its insulting to the rest of us to call this coward a man
He defend his mistress, not wanting to get her involved, but not his family,, yeah his sick
I don't think "mistress" is quite the right word. This guy was on the edge of not being able to support himself in a single room or to pay adequate child support if and when his wife left. His having a mistress is beyond the sky and the clouds of possibility: he managed to get himself a quickie or a one-night stand.
I believe to this day he has loved her more than his wife, 2 daughters, & that baby boy he so wanted because she was fully involved no doubt about it. Her truck was parked on that street the night of the murders, she had been in that basement in that bed down there, her phone pinged in that neighborhood that morning around the same time he was loading the bodies, she got him oxy to take w/ him to NC to drug her & cause a miscarriage which caused her to get sick & spot blood (he said he would go to the grave with that secret of who he got them from) they had a plan but it didn’t work so on to plan b & obviously that didn’t work out well either but even with all the evidence they have against her they wanted Chris & she literally is getting away with murder & I whole heartedly believe that because there is to much circumstantial evidence but Chris loves that girl still & wont turn on her because either way he’s doing life. He is now claiming he is innocent & is trying to get a new trial. He said he believes god sent him there for a time & a reason but his life is to be lived in the free world because he still has so much to do & he KNOWS he will get out soon when he gets a new trial. So someone else murdered them & told him where the bodies are so he could confess a false confession & his supporters believe this bs & have been stated that the time line puts him no where around the area to commit the crime & he was set up that the real murderer is still free; these people are as crazy as he is! I pray that eventually he tells the whole truth so this Nikki monster gets locked up because there is no time on being charged with murder & that’s exactly what should have already happened! Btw he never told her about the mistress nor asked her to separate for the record that’s another one of his stories.

Her suggestion of Shannan doing this is a technique used called "the alternative technique," and his dumbass fell for it. He thought it would make him look like less of a monster, and that's the whole point of why she used it.

For anyone interested in the psychology of this: These two are PROS at getting the truth out of people. “So now we need to talk about what actually happened and I feel like you’re ready for that” They are giving him suggestions constantly that he’s ready to come clean - which eventually break his barriers and convince him that he in fact IS ready. The man says everyone we talked to said you are a good guy and then goes on to separate the image and persona of “good guy Chris” from the Chris that isn’t telling the truth and may of done something that isn’t like him. By separating the action of not telling the truth and the real “good guy Chris” persons it allows him to feel more comfortable in telling the truth and convinces Chris that he in fact is not being himself. “2 Chris’s” Genius. They’re also saying things that Chris knows to be true of himself like “knowing what to pack in a bag” in an emergency and “knowing the book he reads to his daughters” Chris knows these things as true and this allows the agent to suggest something that may or may not be true once Chris agrees in his head that the things before were true. It’s called a yes ladder in persuasion. These guys are pros

He only regrets getting caught
I agree. If he felt any regret he would of came out with everything up front, instead he said she killed the kid's so he killed her so he could maybe get them to feel sorry for him and be lenient on him at sentencing. Why would anyone hate him if he lost control and killed her by strangling her to death if she killed his kid's? Nobody should in their right mind believe a word out of this man's mouth. I just can't even imagine what was going through his poor little girl's mind's when he was smothering them. That was supposed to be the one person to protect them from something like that not the one doing it. It's seriously sad and sickening weather you believe he's a sociopath or what not a real parent could never hurt their child. He's got something not right in his head.
thats the true
I believe the people he killed re with the angles in heaven and once he dies he will see them and he will be sent to hell to rot and the devil is ganna pipe him up 24/7
I'm sorry I beg to differ on that he looks gratified and relieved and didn't have a feeling of human decency especially in this other video that shows the cops bodycam and he is just texting on his phone unconcerned about the whereabouts of his wife and children
It is astonishing how an individual who committed a crime of this proportion is able to live with themselves.
Their brains are devoid of the ability to have human compassion. Criminal element.
When you're a psychopath, it's definitely easier. Think that you don't feel empathy, compassion, guilt, or love. All feelings, even for your own family, are learned. Narcissism is closely related to psychopathy, and even in this case, he only regrets himself. A real human monster.

@Tyler Durden I'm positive that if you were to be asked to type out a transcription of this entire recording, there would have been many parts of it that you couldn't do it. It's not an original recording, they used inferior equipment, they covered their mouths or got quiet at moments, plus a small room with bare walls is not the best acoustical set up for sound. As a vocalist and musician, that depends on a sound board crew, I would have words for them if I sounded this horrible. LOL
No kidding....as a vocalist and musician....this recording drove me batshit crazy, as it would if my sound crew wasn't doing their job right! I even tried using my Bose headphones with an Equalizer over my Panasonic Home Theater's Sound Surround speakers....it didn't help at all. Too muffled and there were echoes for most of the GOOD parts of this recorded copy... of however many copies of the original recording it is. I wanted to hear the whole thing. Ugh.
5:10 Legend has it they are still staring to this day
I was waiting to find this comment😂
why they stare for so long without saying anything?
I'm going to Hell for laughing at this. X'D
🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣😂
And the beat goes on on on on on..
I was a detective for over 20 years and we made sure that the clock was ticking loud. The inmate get less stressed and confess to his crime easily it’s a psychological thing.
Thank you for your insight! Love hearing about this sort of thing
Interesting
That clock is annoying. I would be demanding a lawyer just to get away from that thing.
Whats interesting is that chris seems to think the cheating is worse than the murder.
Carol Spillman Rightttt
I think hes hoping to distract.
For some people dishonesty and disloyalty is worse. Im not saying i agree but i can place myself in the shoes of someone that does.
I wonder how his mistress feel and if she knew he was married.
@@3rczsvbw137 For psychopaths yes. But they are not "peoples" they are wild animals that should all be put behind bars for real humans sake.
The worse part of a cops job i recon is comforting a murder just to get a confession out of them
No doubt.... like wow to them.... I have watched so many of these cases.... and they did their job and did it right
They probably want to rip his face off
Yessss! I could never
Cops are dirty rats. They will lie to you that they have evidence just to get a confession. Talking to a cop will never help you. Lawyer up.
I know i bet that detective was sick to his stomach when he had to down play Shannan.
I love watching interrogations because the psychological tactics are so interesting
you should definetly watch Jim Can't swim's youtube videos then!
He didn't have a snowflakes chance in hell.. they were both coming at him with impressive smarts, he doesn't have any brains. Impressive tag team..
The brain is such a wonderful thing
Same! They did an excellent job. Very smart.
Cheryl Ferry I think it’s transparent bs
Feeding him the lesser crime of killing Shanann because she killed the girls, is a common tactic. This leads to confessing in stages. These detectives are amazing. They are just human and this takes a massive toll. One detective got PTSD after finding the bodies and hasn't worked since.
Which one?
Agree with you 100%. These detectives are masters
I love how they let him soak in silence.
Soak, rinse and repeat
"you took care of your wife, you took care of your daughters, you're very good at taking care of them"....
I see what they did there.
He took care of them alright..
Yeah and Niki was taking good care of his B==D💦
Yeah making him feel comfortable enough putting that pressure on him to identify as the good man that he's so desperately wants to look like as a covert narcissist
even though that's a fake mask that he wears a narcissist is desperate to be the good guy and to look like the good guy
So that pressure made it even more so where he would want to do the right thing until the truth to keep looking like the good guy to the cops
can y'all imagine having those two interrogators as parents growing up? ..... you can kiss lying goodbye.
🤣🤣🤣
That silent treatment they gave him!!!! I had to check to see if I'd lost internet!!
@@debbieallen3861 Honestlyyy I thought my phone was skipping and then I realized it wasn’t I’m like so we just gonna sit here 😭💀
That would make expert liar kid
My thoughts exactly.
I can’t imagine this level of evil. Killing your whole family just to start over. Psychotic behavior smh
I've watched many--too many--crime documentaries and I've seen outstanding interviews conducted by seasoned detectives but I've never seen two detectives more in sync with their methods and timing than these two. They're like a well-oiled machine!
@Dan D Amen to that!
With all the evidence gathered this scumbag was chicken feed to these cops .
ReelGirl detective Tammy is top notch.
Aren’t they lawyers?
Those detectives put the idea in his head to blame the death of his children on his wife. That's pretty fucking disgusting if you ask me.
Okay Self... Move on with your life.. Stop watching these videos... It's over.
I keep telling myself this.
Same
Warning: these vids become like crack after prolonged viewing
I don't agree, this case is a pure treasure in the history of humanity, I am sure we're gonna learn a lot about psychology, about killers and so much more, I discover so much about me watching this.
I mean, the questions from the police officers, the behaviour of the killer after his crime, all this is so rare and precious, we have to work on that case to prevent other events like this or even to know more avout humanity.
Omg right my husband was like “why do you keep watching those!?!?”
Evil crazy bastard
My son died in an accident,I’d have given my life just for him to live.
How can this man do this
I am so sorry for you
I'm sorry 😔
Sorry to hear that Hun...God Bless your Heart......
PEACE N BLESSINGS
MY CONDOLENCES 🙌🏾
Straight Truth !
This guy is the most dangerous person you could ever get hooked up with because until he did what he did he was mostly normal what a disgusting person to be able to kill his little girlsand pregnant wife unreal
And the way he sat there and consistently LIED! “I love my girls I SWEAR to God I did nothing to them” “I swear i told the truth on the lie detector test” “I’m not lying I SWEAR” “I’m not like that ask ANYBODY that knows me “ WOWWWWWW chronic liars are SCARY
At 22:00 when she starts asking why he hasn't shed a tear or shown emotion, it's actually a ploy. The cops don't really care whether you show emotion or not.
Usually an innocent person would respond, "Well, look, that's just how I am, ok??"
The guilty person will try to shore up the incongruity by suddenly making themselves cry or show emotion. "Oh -- THIS is what you want to see? THIS is what I need to do, to make you believe me? Ok. I can make that happen."
And that's exactly what he made a feeble attempt at doing.
Timothy Adams I noticed that, too.
To be honest, he kind of did say that.- “look, this is just how I am”.
Not defending, just saying.
Same thing with polygraphs. They don’t actually mean anything as it’s impossible to 100% predict if a person is lying. She just used it as a ploy to get him to think that it works
Good. I would hope the police would recognize that people grieve in different ways. Some bawl their eyes out and some get stoic.
Arthur Fleck the way a polygraph works is they ask you simply questions like what color is my shirt or what’s 5+5 to get a record of your heart beat when your calm and telling the truth. Than they hit you with the serious questions and than that’s when they see the change in your heart beat or other things they detect. Everything changes when your trying to lie, wether you try and stay calm, your body will change.
The old “bad cop, good cop” worked great. Great work to these two detectives
THE DUDE also played on this idea that his wife was controlling, have the female detective be the controlling aggressive one, let the man be the comfort friend, plays to his own sense of victimization
@@HannahEMPGaming exactly she even set him up by saying did she hurt the kids and you did something out of spite that's how he even got got the whole idea
totally this guy turned into a baby..... wow
As soon as the dad said “we will get a lawyer”, they enter the room. These are smart cops. They are like, “Let’s get this...”
Well,they are behind the camera and it's a tactic move.
@@Coach_Vedo ya think? Lol
Chris wasn't going to get away with it. He already destroyed his own life.
How sick could someone be, to murder their own children
“I’m not lying I promise” ... oh well in that case, he says he promises. You’re free to go, Chris!!!
A narcissist is so grandiose and in denial that they actually expect you to take their word for it.
LOL
Trump would believe him. Putin strongly denied and Trump said ok then.lol
Lol
Dude had a life some people would love to have... thats crazy.
Kphopeevila I was just thinking that just to throw everything he and his wife worked for wat lame 😒
don't be fooled by the the big fancy house it doesn't mean life is great they had a ton of debt he was probably stressed out to the max i mean he's only 33 and he's got grey hair
@@truthfilter no, they were financially stable, mostly thanks to his wife. What he wanted was a new life with his mistres, without kids and a questionable wife on his back. Also he doesn't wanna pay alimony.
He's a sick fuck.
Kphopeevila
I felt the same when I started watching this story unfold. I hope he suffers with the memory of what he has done for the rest of his miserable life.
@@truthfilter Pffft. That doesn't mean anything. My dad was grey by the time he was 25. Before he was married or had any real responsabilities.
He sounds very immature, almost like a teenager.
right? he isn't bright
Lots and lots of grown men haven't really moved past that stage in terms of emoting and relating to other people.
He dunmb a box of rocks to admit it! He could've told her to talk to his attorney got up and left he folded
@@heatherblanchard5492 true but carma caught up to this one sooner than later he doesn't deserve too be free
@@Yngsavi no one said he deserved to be free u said he was stupid
He literally committed the most vile and evil act of senseless murder. There's literally no reason at all he killed them. No mistress is worth killing your own wife and daughters for! This guy is so sick. poor sweet little girls and the horror they must have gone through.
Wrong!!! There’s absolutely no reason why he should LIVE 😡!!!!
From South Africa here. Are there more international people following this case? Anyhow. The ticking of that clock made me finally confess to myself that im allergic to my dog.
No ur not allergic to your dog. It's something else. But definitely not your dog.
This deserves more likes
@ShtU WonaC lol I wish. They run around the farm, but no. Haha
Yep bru also from sa
Lolllll
“This is the chris that tells the truth because you’re a truth teller” A+ interrogation skills.
Kirk Dyreson l was thinking the same on that exact part! They are damn good!
They say to him ... ( lying through their back teeth.)😏
Lmfaaaaaooo
Yazmine Mbaied You got the sarcasm!
Kirk Dyreson total bs I find it makes killers look very dumb
Absolutely genius how the psychologist is appealing to the narcissist in Chris to get a confession out of him.
Ikr
It's called acting... they knew nothing of an affair until he talked about. No psychology here just lying to get a confession... All i see is bad acting from someone who has seen too many movies
I’m going to pull my hair out if I hear the word “like” ever again.
Like
@@planetcaravan2925 lol
Right? At least he didn’t say “literally”
He’s so dumb his vocabulary consists of a handful of words only
That clock is a simple, cheap form of torture. It’s working on me...I did it...it’s was me...just stop that ticking!!
5:10
leila lalala Chinese Clock Torture!! Should have boxed it up and sent it to Chris!!
😂😂
Have something to confess??? Kelli ??
I confessed to the crime 30 seconds into Video 1 lmao
My God, why do this? Dude murdered his pregnant wife and two kids. How he got to that point instead of getting a divorce boggles the mind.
26michaeluk dr Phil did a segment on this case and he mentions that Chris because a narcissist, if he got a divorce he would still have ties to his wife, financial responsibilities etc etc and he was already in debt, but if he murdered her and got away with it he would get money from the life insurance policy of his children and wife, plus he would be the centre of attention and get all the sympathy, he's definitely a psychopath and a narcissist.
@Miles Davidson we all have things we aren't proud of
@@laurenfinney9762 Money and being the center of attention over 4 human lives. I'm really into true crime but these people killing their significant others and children shock me every time. Such a callous thing to do. Thanks for the info. Much appreciated.
all about money he would have lost,,,,
GREED
The audio is so horrible it's like I'm listening to this through the wall with my ear pressed up to a cup💁
Hahaha
I hear great with headphones
Napah Shadah right. Been thinking the same exact thing for the last 40 minutes. Takes me back to when I would try to listen to my parents arguing through the door because I did some stupid shit in school
Napah Shadah put on the subtitles.. you’re welcome
Try putting a mic on a suspected murderer before interrogation
The moment you realize you are suspected of murder you end the interview and get an attorney. Jeez this guy dug his own grave and burried himself in it.
I definitely 2nd
that emotion...
Immediately,
Chris should of asked for an attorney....
Er hätte nie eine aussage machen dürfen. Der Anwalt hätte anders reagiert, denn ganz unschuldig war Shannan nicht.
“I want them back home”
“But you know they’re not coming back home”
Hayden Clark True🤔
Where did they go?
Colonel Gaddafi He killed them..
@@jess6882 That's really bad. He should go to prison in my opinion
Colonel Gaddafi how did you manage to watch this video let alone get here and not fucking know what happened. Idiot
Love how he sits there, rambling on about what a good person his mistress is & defending her & worried about the police going after her, yet throws Shanann under the bus, blaming her for killing the children. What a piece of work
He's DISGUSTING
This is exactly how I feel!!!
He was so concerned about NK that it was so obvious he murdered them in cold blood
What a piece of shits!
@Lady Day Q: WTF did NK do to this weak turd to make him commit all the horrific killing of his own kids? A: According to you, NK provided sex with ONE additional woman to his list that stood only AT one.
There's no word that perfectly describes what I think of this man. He killed his wife, and continued on slapping her face from beyond the grave. Blaming her for what he did was the ultimate slap on her face. How can a human being be so vile and evil.
Buried her "butt up". Without the girls. And then lied saying she was the killer of the kids. Yes ultimate insults.
😔 I know. Hes rotten to the core. Evil and stupid man. I cant imagine what Shannans friends and family feel. To lose her and the children and he tries to make her out to be the cause.
@@nicelydone4846 He was framed, don't believe the lies
FoodforThought : Chris Watts was framed by his own thoughts and murderous actions. As you with yours. Educate yourself before you ever speak.
@@lauramc5688 Do you have proof that the wife didn't kill the babies and then strangle herself? Poor guy got blamed for everything, he falsely confessed due to confusion and aggressive actions for the interrogators.
First, this female detective that submitted the polygraph is a badass. I'm thoroughly impressed. He may have felt trepidacious about taking a polygraph, and may have even backed out at the last second, but not after she gave him the buddy treatment lulling him into a false sense of security.
I'm shocked (but not really) that in 2018 people STILL talk to the police without a lawyer. You can only LOSE by speaking to the police when your a suspect, innocent or not.
Second, don't know if you all have been paying attention to that clock on the wall while fast-forwarding through the dull parts, but they leave him alone for up to 20 minutes several times. That's on purpose.
After all the distractions of ppl, an talking and questions, etc, the detectives will give them time to sit there alone in with their thoughts and WORRIES: "What did I say? Did I pass? When did I say I left the house? What's talking them so long!"
It's just another way to break their will.
I think the logic on the lawyer part is that "innocent people don't need lawyers." But innocent people *do* get falsely convicted of crimes, so if you're ever in a situation where you're being asked serious questions, your best bet is to ask for a lawyer.
Totally agree.
If your wife dies falling down the stairs and the police start asking you if you and your wife had problems. Shut up. Get a lawyer.
If a detective asks, "Did you recently have an argument with the victim? Shut up, Get a lawyer.
Or, can you come town to the police station and take a blood, urine or polygraph test. Shut up. Get a lawyer.
Crashburn 32 you sir are the god of summing things up
Would of definitely got a lawyer the moment they even assumed it might be me.. If they don't have body's they can't prove anything. BUT .. That GPS would of been the thing that got him and they more than likely would have searched the work site he was at and would of found shannans body and then there was hair on one of the lids of the tanks.. IF he was smart.. He probably could of got away with it
Or... you know... don't murder your wife, kids, and unborn child... that's also an option.
imagine confessing something so horrible to your one dad…
😳🙄🥹
He is lying he is not confensig
I almost confessed to it, after an hour of that f**king clock!
😂😂😂 drive anyone crazy
nice copy and morph
Lmfgaooooooo 😂😅🤣😁
roberto ribas 🤣
Intentionally loud to remind suspects their time is running out.
I have so much respect for law enforcement. To sit in the same room as someone who has potentially murdered his family... Incredible.
The cops don't give a fuck. How is that amazing. They are doing their job. That's it.
Henry Ventura That couldn’t be farther from the truth. Clearly you’ve never worked in Emergency Services. I’m a firefighter (saying that because most people assume I’m a cop) and have known several detectives in my life, and they’re the ones that care the most about nailing people like Chris.
The bar is in hell
Thats what I was thinking I couldnt do their job and that women must have nerves of steel becuase she knew he was lying from the get go but remained calm like it was a normal convo she didnt let on for a second she knew I bet she's great at poker
The detectives sound like they are homosexual.
These two investigators are f****** good and I don't really even know what good is when it comes to their job but I am really impressed these two deserve promotions holyshit they're good
good ones. they could of written all the things that dont add up. so he can see how many things are stacked up against him and why he is better off confessing now instead of going against a judge and jury
Daniel Pletcher yeah good at telling you bullshit that makes you come clean.
@@azcrum he should come clean what he did was f****** atrocious he shouldn't even be allowed to live on planet Earth anymore they need to stick him in an oil drum f****** piece of s***
I know just perfection
That's because real police work on murder cases and serious crimes. They're not all incompetent bullying pigs, these are the guys that really keep society in check. They're not the fat traffic cop handing out fines and kidnapping people for weed possession.
Let me get this straight…
Cameras were on the house filming every move. His work had a tracker on the truck every ten minutes. How did he think he was going to get away with this. He should have called the police immediately after he killed his wife.
It is very hard to believe, Chris was alone when all of this happened and Chris killed his whole family...
I think Nicole Kessenger was involved in some way...
I don't believe she is an innocent person....
Nicole Kessenger had something to do with Chris and the killing of Chris's family...
Chris would have not done this by himself....
@@carolecompton9270Is there any news about her? Did police, FBI or someone else said anything about her? Someone is protecting her.
Ten seconds
@@carolecompton9270I think Shannan caught Nichole in the house and an argument began and Nichole told Chris to kill her and he couldn't and Nicole killed her then killed the kids so they couldn't talk. Imagine I'm sure she doing this to another man as we speak.
@messixavibarca4ever I read on another video that her father knows the DA. Also, her father is a retired FBI agent.
