A Beautiful Life Taken - Watts Family Murders The Full Story RE-UPLOAD

This is a re-upload due to an erroneous copyright claim on some of the footage included in the original video. Now finally released of the copyright dispute I can upload the complete movie again without my OWN WORK being claimed by scammers!
This has taken me a LONG TIME to put together, but I wanted to make a movie length video covering the FULL STORY of the Watts Family Murders. I've called it "A Beautiful Life Taken", because the Watts family had a beautiful life, until it was taken by the actions of one person: Chris Watts.
The second hour of this video is Chris' confession, told to Special Agent Graham Coder, Agent Tammy Lee and Detective Dave Baumhover in February 2019. I don't believe this confession is the full truth, but it is my opinion that it is close. The details Chris has not disclosed can be speculated, and please do, in the comments. However, this video is not a place where I have offered my own speculations. Its is wholly based on the facts as presented to the public.

It's sooo telling how her family, even AFTER knowing what Chris did to their family members, talks about him as they knew him to be..... And how HIS family talks about the woman THEIR son killed. Her dad says he was a great father, couldn't have asked for better for his grandkids, etc. His mother does nothing but sht on Shannan, even in death, even knowing what THEIR son did. She STILL couldn't muster up the maturity to say SOMETHING decent about Shannan. Or just say nothing at all. What a vile, immature, self centered woman. No wonder her son turned out as he did. His mother is gross.

[@hollyhundley2240]

Yes and his family are the biggest pieces of shit for this. I’ve never seen people ever blame a victim for their own death like this. They are horrible people. The shit look cindy watts has on her face when talking about this poor dead woman but fails to have any disdain for their son. They try to claim he was a victim of her but the world knows he did this for that rotten piece of ass he wanted. And he killed his children. His babies!

I followed this case from the very beginning,, it breaks my heart ,, how this narcissist can declare his love for his mistress ,, after 6-8 weeks,,, ?,,, that’s blind lust !,, he never dated many girls ,, he’s naive as hell thinking she was special!,,, OH she’s a real number !!!

[@WakeyWakeyEggsandBakey]

They were together longer than that. There's far more to this than meets the eye. Chris took a plea deal but what was the deal? He got life without parole through a deal? And no attorney would have advised he do that to avoid DP because any attorney would've to him to fight it in trial die to the serious issues with the investigation for example no physical evidence linking him to the crimes. And other things such as how he didn't know how the girls died and answered wrongly. I'm not saying I think he's innocent I'm saying no attorney would be able to prove beyond reasonable doubt. Idk what's fishy about it apart from nk but there's something and it's big. Since when do investigations completely stop after a confession? Never that's when.. if you've read the discovery you'll know how many weird things there are.

[@georgiegirl4103]

He never dated anyone! Had no real friends. Lived in his own head with dark thoughts from a young boy... told the author Cheryl Cadle. His "so called quietness" was not having any root in himself, having no idea who he was. His over bearing mother controlled him with thought word and deed. Submissive doing what he was told to do and think his entire life! It's shocking how protective he is toward NK, and worried not to put her name out there...been through enough?! His wife and children are dead! I think one of the most disturbing actions/behavior of CW is his profound dis-loyalty! Out of sight and mind with easily re-placing a life and marriage and children of 8 years...for a girlfriend of 6 weeks! You can hear how desperate he is by the fact that NK made him feel wanted and loved with the attention given him! He built up resentment and hatred for SW and his "doing so much for her"! I'm actually surprised that an acute narcissist lasted that long in his marriage...Only long term hate/rage can do what he did! I do also believe that a lot of his lies and explanations came from NK. How do u go from a simple separation to murder?! Anyway I enjoyed your common sense comment.....

[@elizabethjoclayton8892]

I agree that there’s more to this story but I don’t believe we will ever know. Also, I believe the other misses is involved more than what has come out so far. When I started following the story I wondered how Chris handled Shanaan posting video’s on Facebook that made him look like he was a super hero. The perfect father and husband. I believe it’s great when couples compliment each other but Shanaan was a little over the top with the praise. No matter how hard I try I just can’t imagine what was going through Bella and CeCe’s minds when I watched an interview with Chris explaining in detail how he murdered Shannan and the girls. They watched Chris wrap Shannan in a bed sheet and dragged her downstairs because she was too heavy to carry. He said he put a huge black plastic bag over her and put her on the floorboard of his extended cab truck while the girls sat on the seat with their tiny feet dangling over Shannan’s lifeless body. Even after almost 6 years It still seems surreal. During the interview Chris actually talked to the reporter about how he planned on reaching out to people that could help him get out of prison. He acted like he was in prison for a minor offense like shoplifting instead of murdering his entire family. He is one delusional jerk.

[@terrytorres9248]

I agree with you . I thought , this behavior wasn’t normal at all , just less in a few weeks he loves his mistress and didn’t have love for his wife and children , he is a true narcissist . And cold blooded killer . My heart breaks where Shannon says he is the best thing ever happened to me , I wish in that moment she would see the true red flags in him , she was so blinded by his fake feelings towards her and his children .

I have such a hard time wrapping my head around this case. He killed his wife as she looked at him an said nothing. I wonder if she knew she was going to die. THEN killing those beautiful little innocent babies so coldly. And just throwing them away. How could he have love for his mistress an have such deep rooted hate for his wife and babies an unborn son. It does not seem humanly possible to have such love and hate at the same time. I know it is possible cause I see it and hear it. The family visits him an they all act like it never happened. Imagine thanking HIM...THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED. So sorry you three and boy had to come to the end like this. Thank you.

I'm still confused about how he did it..were the girls still alive? I think he got behind her, that's why she didn't fight back..but how was he able to see blood in her eyes? I don't think we'll ever know the truth...not the entire truth

If he cries it is not for his babies an wife. He cries cause he wants that other life. So dilugenal he talks like he may one day get out. This....thing...is not human. He should die yes because he makes us unsafe and he costs us money. If he was to get out tomorrow he would just go on as though he just woke up.ftom a bad dream.so sad. So sick.

I couldn’t eat much of anything through the funeral and then for 3 months as I organised a new life for my children and myself in a different state…… CW’s lack of empathy for anyone except himself is so so wrong, self-involved and appalling- there really aren’t any words bad enough to describe it…..

I'm very sorry you lost your husband. I lost the love of my life April 24 2023. She was only 36. I still am crushed. I couldn't do anything for the first 6 months. I was in the army for six years so I always shaved and stayed clean cut and kept my hair sort of military style. After she passed I grew a full beard and my hair grew to my shoulders...this may sound gross but I didn't shower for a long time. I didn't care. I wanted to die. I still dream of her and I still miss her. My heart has a huge hole and I'll never be fully whole again without her. I miss her so bad. Her beautiful face is my screen saver and my wallpaper on my phone so I see her sweet face every day all day. I see therapists now who tell me I'm stuck in an unhealthy place. I'll probably kill myself one day. I just don't want to live anymore without Maneesha. She was everything to me. I struggle to get thru the days and nights. I got two cats and honestly they are the only reason I still try to live my life. When they go...I'll prob go. Who knows. I will never be with another woman though. I just want Maneesha back.

[@amandafight7627]

The letter chris wrote shows premedition. "I would never do anything to myself, my children or my wife," which indicates something is going to happen to them and then he ends it off with "if anything happens to ME, please imvesigate my wife." But his kids and wife are the ones who are dead, NOT CHRIS! The letter also shows Chris is a pathological liar! Nothing happened to Chris! He is alive! His family is not. We see him carrying his family out to the truck and his stuff cause all you have to do is use your imagination when he is going back and forth and we see the shadow of Bella under the truck walk towards him and the tip of her head when chris leans down and picks her up and puts her in the truck.

Their happy family life was total BS sadly. I've seen lots of videos, but there's this one, where they're all on holiday & Shannon is filming the location, Chris & his parents & I could see him getting so pissed off & annoyed with her behaviour, as did he & his folks in this clip. The social media food & drink challenges, plus being constantly filmed by Shannon like you're in a reality TV programme would really get on my last nerve. Would I have killed her & the kids? ABSOLUTELY NOT! But was Shannon annoying? Probably, I'd say more than likely! Her type of personality would really get to me, but you don't kill someone for something so trivial as this. I feel sorry for Chris for having to exist in Shannon's social media world, but I feel so sorry for his 3 kids, especially sweet little Nico who never even got a chance to take his first breath! Wow. What a total clusterfuck of a situation. I don't mean to sound insensitive, but with this case, the Courtney Clenny case, etc, I hope it gives some people a reality check to stop trying to live this fake, aestheticly beautiful, "happy,' perfect lifestyle. Put down your phones & just play with your kids & be in the moment, stop living your lives through a God damn screen & phone camera!

No wonder her son turned out to be a family annihilator. He was castrated by his own mother long before he met Shannan and Shannan tried to make him into a man and the thanks she got was what he did to her. Cindy should hand her head in shame and never speak Shannans name again other than to say my kid did the worst thing ever, we don't support that and his family never deserved it.

The ‘appeal’ from the porch is disturbing for so many reasons as many others have said. I feel the most telling is how ego-centric his words are, instead of the expected appeal for his pregnant wife and dear little girls not to be hurt by ‘whoever has them’.

Cris and the girls were shanann door mats and she knew how to use them , maybe she should have spent more time with her husband and kids and less on that damn social media,, then maybe cry wouldn’t have strayed , ., shanann thought she had someone she could walk all over , and after so long Cris got tired of being her door mat, her exhusband got tired of her crap to he was a lawyer and couldn’t afford her spending money and them being broke all the time and her first house was from money she embezzled from where she was working and the bank took that house , oh she did work her ass off stealing from where she worked , no fought about it, and yes I do feel sorry for both the families , shanann should have listened to her dad , and as far as Cris family I’m sure it was hard to care about shanann, and no I don’t believe Cris mom was trying to harm her granddaughter with nuts , shanann just looked for reasons to be an asshole , And no murder is awful and wrong , he should have just waited until that baby was born and filed for divorce, and paid child support and made sure the money went for the kids not for her flying trips all the time , she put the kids in daycare while all the time the bills were piling up and a second bankruptcy in the making, if she had cared at all about her family she would’ve made sure the bills were paid and a lot less plane tickets to get away from home and family,

[@susieannei5641]

Nicole was OBSESSED with SHANANN BEFORE she set her sites on Chris. I can’t find where I saw it, but there is evidence of Nicole watching Shanann’s KZbin channel before the first encounter where Mz Jezebel strut her tight pants in front of Chris at work. She watched SHANANN talk about Chris being her Knight and saw the seemingly happy family she didn’t have. Nicole could never settle on being “second” and even if Chris and SHANANN were divorced the girls would be a constant reminder that Chris already “been there done that”(as she has said). BUT if Nicole could give Chris his FIRST SON, that might be an acceptable consultation prize. Then Nico appeared and the world came to an end. Chris tried to cause a spontaneous abortion without success. After that the family had to be wiped out. Divorce just wouldn’t do for Chris’ angel of darkness. There are no statutes of limitations for MURDER. I hope the police force is still looking at Nicole…the one who wouldn’t be second to anyone. She’s a danger to society and she’s still out there somewhere Still watching happy families on KZbin.

Kessinger got away with with it. She has powerful friends, beginning by her ex-cop dad, who had the nerve during her interrogation to tell the detective what he could ask and what he shouldn’t. UNBELIEVABLE.

No matter what happens in a marriage theres no reason for killing your partner and your children this man is evil and always was that’s why when he was young he would pray so much cause he always had evil thoughts and couldn’t understand why he finally got the devil inside him to release his anger and hate so now he’s where the devil wants him to be he should have kept praying

[@Rachelshmachel63]

Bella is the one who gets me. She looks like Chris , is quiet like him, and she seems so sensitive to Shannan’s presence and demands . Personally Shannan is not my kind of person, the whole mlm and constant FB recording is unappealing to me . Being online for such private moments the whole Business is soooo cringe and not me. But in no way does that condone or justify Chris’s actions. I’m sure she was a lovely person( just a bit to bossy for my liking ) That little face of Bella’s while in the high chair , just dying for a cannoli treat knowing she wasn’t allowed to. Then again I let my kids indulge and they have a hard time delaying gratification. But it’s just different parenting styles. Just a different point of view.

[@amandafight7627]

Someone has to wear the pants when the husband won't. Chris was a coward. All he had to do was communicate the way he felt to shanann and she would have worked on it but he was too much of a man child coward. And his parents hating her from the get go didn't help their marriage at all. Chris should have told his mom to back the f**k off but he was a coward. He was faking his dad and husband roles. He had to Google what love is and how do you know you're in love. He couldnt discern actual love from lust. And sadly, Shanann didn't see the alarming red flags and get far away from him.

[@angelinamiamor]

Psychopaths don’t feel anything for anyone. They can mimic behavior, emotions and feelings, though.

[@amandafight7627]

Oil field workers like Chris are trained to do the fireman carry. Plus he had her wrapped in a sheet and he drug her to the hole. He parked close to the hole too. And the sheet shows she was dragged on it. But Chris had help cause theres no way he dug the rest of the hole, buried Shanann and put the girls in the tanks in 38 minutes all by himself. Its very hard to dig in Colorado cause it's mostly bedrock than in the Midwest. All the oil sites had dirt brought in. Chris says "we had shovels" "we had rakes." And I think NK chose cervy 319 location cause she is a geologist and would know the ground type and if it was diggable or not. All the other Anadarko oils cites were on bed rock. But I know NK, Jim and possibly NKs girlfriend helped Chris dispose of them that day. Bella told a boy at the birthday party that her, cece and daddy were just digging holes before they got to the bday party. Chris had most of the hole dug days before. The investigators let NK and Jim go free cause had they investigated the red car it we see leaving on neighbor or's Nates Ring footage, would have led the detectives to NK and Jim. The detectives ignored alot of physical evidence and red flags. But NKs daddy's freemason power got them out of trouble. I've never seen a grown woman have their daddy in the interrogation room. Most kids who do heinous crimes aren't even allowed to have their parents in the room. I think Chris sought out evil/sketchy people to help him get rid of his family cause he was living in fantasy land full of lust.

[@debsykes3056]

I read/heard (yes I know it's speculation) that Watts had fallen for the mistress and became embroiled in her friend's dark behaviours- one eg, the drinks I've heard contained a powerful drug which he was subject to regularly He looked manic on the neighbour's cctv when he was loading his truck up that morning. He didn't have it in him to murder his wife and certainly not his children. He was set up for reasons that didn't go to plan. His wife's ETA from her trip and Shan'ann's best friend calling at the house was not expected. Whether people believe or not he did it himself, he's as guilty as they come. And a weak pathetic example of a person straying from his marriage and children
