Tag: Last time he saw Shan’ann Watts alive

“Did you see your wife when she got home?” LISTEN to Chris Watts’ answer

When was the last time Chris Watts saw his pregnant wife alive? what was the last thing he said to her?

At 12:13 in the clip the reporter asks the most crucial question.

REPORTER: Um…did you see your kids, or your wife when they got – or you had the kids, I forgot.

WATTS: Had-had the kids over the weekend.

Now here it is.

REPORTER: Did you see your wife when she got home?

WATTS: Ah-she got home really late. About 2am. From the airport, when she got back from Arizona. 

Notice he hasn’t answered the question.

REPORTER: Did you wake up and say-

WATTS [Interrupting]: No. I-I [stuttering] saw her when she got in. But it was really quick. Just because it was two ‘o clock in the morning but…I saw the kids on the monitor before I left and…[softly] that was it.

Once again, he dodges the question here, saying he saw the kids on the monitor before he left, but did’t say anything to Shan’ann or see her before he left [she was supposed to be sleeping in bed next to him, after being away for two days on a business trip. Why wouldn’t he greet her…unless she was already dead, and never got into bed].

He also answers “no” to the question: ‘did you wake up…?’

I saw her when she got in. But it was really quick.

I believe him. I don’t think he went to sleep on the night of August 12, morning of August 13. And it was really quick when it happened.
