I know you should never attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity, but sometimes you have to wonder if these things are done on purpose and later explained away as an accident.
Listening to his initial talk to the police is a masterclass on why you don’t talk to law enforcement. However, I hope he rots in the grave he dug for himself. Those poor little girls, just a depraved man.
Do you think some dude in the factory sector of the Shiang Zhi industrial province in China knows or gives a single solitary shit what picture is on that crap he is schilling to Americans?
Not at first. I think he had to get a transfer to another prison for his own safety. And they gave him a roomie who is also a child predator/killer. It's a common practice since those who prey on kids tend to have a really difficult time in prison. Safety protocol.
Chris Watts killed his family. Netflix made a documentary about it called American Murder. This is a photo of the happy family before the horribleness.
Yep. Same as polygraph tests or lists of supposed behavioral indicators that people are lying. There is a huge range of phenotypic variety when it comes to body language & stress responses. Some are stressed and fidgety in all social situations, others can lie convincingly without blinking an eye. Might as well judge people by their skull shape or zodiac sign
In the documentary I watched I thought he mentioned how the daughter said " daddy no" or something gut wrenching before he dropped her in. I remember I couldn't sleep right for like a week
Typical small town ND shit. Any post about it quickly devolves into politics, religion, morals, wanting the house torn down, people that don't belong here, hatred for the media, etc.
Huge fan of increased video surveillance, even though it has its privacy risks. My dream is for every car to come with 360-degree 24/7 cameras the way Teslas do.
Fuck, we are now. Did y’all hear about that rapist, Brock Turner, who got very little jail time for “15 minutes of action”? Oh, did you also know he’s a dip shit that should be called out on this for the rest of his life?
As much as I hate paying taxes to keep people in prison, I think in this case I'm okay with it. Death penalty is too quick and painless for a person like this, he needs to be kept alive as long as possible so that he can live a long painful life remembering what a fucking monster he is while other lifetime inmates beat the shit out of him for 50 years
While I agree with your concept.. that only works on people who have a shred of remorse of guilt over their actions, and everything from that man screams that he doesnt give a shit. In which case he's going to be happy to stay living, even if it is behind bars, with a burden free mind because he's a monster with no empathy. Probably even kept in a separate population for his own 'safety' with likeminded monsters who have done similar things.
For people like him I am for a more Biblical interpretation of Eye for an Eye... He strangle/smother his kids? Juan the Executioner will be strangling you in return while you're bound and helpless. Fuck that man.
I made a button with a pic of an ugly bald guy from a People magazine and added a crass capion... the guy shot up ft. Hood.. yikes! Accidental poor choice. No more People mag bc I am too clueless of who People are :(
Nah, cause if I did they’d all have the same twist ending where the killer was actually the friends we made along the way and there was never really a slasher, the town was just so paranoid they started killing each other thinking they were killing the slasher. Jaleel White would be the grizzled hard as nails cop trying to solve the case, Bobcat Goldthwait voices the cop’s intrusive thoughts. French Stewart is just there, nobody acknowledges him, this is never explained, he isn’t in the credits.
one of those True Crime deals where he tried to talk his way out of mass-murdering his family to the police instead of shutting up & getting a lawyer so it makes for good TV – his best bet tho was fleeing to Saudi Arabia or something
Not long after this photo was taken he murdered his pregnant wife and two kids then dumped them in oil vats so he could avoid divorce. He's a total piece of crap.
Chris Watts killed his family. Netflix made a documentary about it called American Murder. This is a photo of the happy family before the horribleness.
Yea, they actually don't post the adress to keep lookey loos from going, and you have to have like.. money down or something before the realtor will even show the house.
He also mostly did it so he could be free to get together with this other girl I'm pretty sure he met off of the internet. In interviews it didn't even seem like she was that interested in him to begin with.
The warped thought which springs to my mind is "this leather is just baby's skin smooth" which is not the darkest word-phrase association I've ever had but its pretty fuckin' up there.
There's a good documentary on it. All because he didn't want to lose his stuff in a divorce. Look, I hate MLM, but damn, I'd never kill someone shilling placebo weight-loss patches.
Before I got into tech, I worked in law enforcement. Read so many PC affidavits that made me super depressed and horrified at the unthinkable things people are capable of. I read so many detailed reports and never got desensitized to it. I still can’t believe people are capable of something this horrific.
Intelligent people normally vastly underestimate the violence, cruelty and greed of the vast majority of free-range stupids. Unfortunately most top 5% intelligent people seem to make it a point to ignore this.
Save your soul some pain and never read or listen to the full details of what he did to his family. His little girls woke up mid-murdering them. I have listened and I'll let my soul weep enough for yall.
Ive been a true crime addict since before it became popular (the 80/90's Unsolved Mysteries kicked my fascination early) and some documentaries/podcasts go into more case detail than others. I didnt so much seek it out as it happend to be transcribed during one of the documentaries/podcasts of the case I was listening to at some point.
For me, I feel like if their poor little souls can live through something that awful, the least I can do is hear their story. It's worse to suffer in silence and be forgotten.

He did suffocate one kid in front of the other, so the other one had a few minutes to be terrified of what daddy was about to do to her.
