Initially, the father-of-three portrayed himself as a desperate husband searching for his missing family.
“Shanann, Bella, Celeste, if you’re out there, just come back,” he said on August 14 in an interview with Denver7. “If somebody has her, just bring her back. I need to see everybody.”
But just one day later, Watts was arrested and eventually confessed to the killings. He pleaded guilty to nine charges, including murder and the unlawful termination of a pregnancy. He is currently serving a life sentence without parole in Wisconsin.
