In this episode, we examine the 2018 murders committed by Chris Watts, who killed his pregnant wife, Shanann, and their two young daughters, Bella and Celeste, before attempting to conceal the crime. We trace the investigation from the family's reported disappearance to Watts' televised pleas, failed interviews with investigators, confession, and eventual guilty plea. The episode also explores themes of coercive control, family annihilation, and the gap between public appearances and private violence, while centering the lives of the victims rather than the notoriety of the offender.
