Her search logs also showed a few times that she googled Shanann, even before the murders. So even at the point she definitely knew her name and what she looked like. She seemed a bit more obsessive about CW than she wants it to seem.
That makes sense, because he worked at Anadarko for three years, and according to them, only hooked up in the last 2-3 months. I wonder when her first search was.
Why did DA release this? Where is discussion on info on I believe 508 and 529 where Kessi her said she thought finances was the main reason this happened, and where Chris Watts said they were three months behind in mortgage and maxed out on credit cards? Was any of the fiancial situation of Watts part of the investigation? Did I miss bank statement, notice of foreclosure, confirmation of income? It seems that the investigation focused on affair only. With Watts calling realtor and school the same day he dumped the bodies, isn’t it reasonable to follow up on financial aspect of the motive?
It seems to me that Rourke was in such a rush to get this settled and finished up that he took the quickest way to get there. It barely mentioned that the Watts took money from Chris’s 401K, $10,000 to catch up on their mortgage.

Book 4 in the TWO FACE series, one of the best reviewed, is available now in paperback!
“Book 4 in the K9 series is a must read for those who enjoy well researched and detailed crime narratives. The author does a remarkable job of bringing to life the cold dark horror that is Chris Watts throughout the narrative but especially on the morning in the aftermath of the murders. Chris’s actions are connected by Nick van der Leek’s eloquent use of a timeline to reveal a motive.”

I believe I read her searches on Shan’ann began in Sept. 2017 so that was way before they claimed he introduced himself to her.

Good thinking. It it is odd that the financial records aren’t here.
