YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

By pleading guilty to multiple counts of first-degree murder, Chris Watts has admitted to killing his pregnant wife Shanann and their two young daughters Bella, 4, and Celeste, 3.

This plea spares the 33-year-old the possibility of the death penalty, but also means many questions will remain unanswered since the case won’t go to trial.

Weld County District Attorney Michael Rourke said his office may be able to answer some questions about what motivated the heinous crime after Chris Watts is formally sentenced to life in prison on Monday, but conceded that much of what happened the day of Aug. 13 will remain a mystery.

Here’s a recap of the Chris Watts case and what we know and don’t know ahead of his final court appearance.
