In this episode of Profiling Evil, I sit down with clinical and forensic psychologist Dr. Joni Johnston to examine why some women pursue relationships with men responsible for notorious killings. We begin with Chris Watts, who is serving life without parole for murdering his pregnant wife, Shanann Watts, their daughters, Bella and Celeste, and their unborn son, Nico. With reports that Watts may now want to marry a woman who has repeatedly visited him in prison, we discuss what someone may gain from a relationship built around distance, controlled contact and the belief that she alone understands the man behind the crime.Dr. Johnston explains the limited research surrounding hybristophilia, the term commonly used for attraction to people who commit serious crimes. We discuss rescue fantasies, religious redemption, the desire to feel uniquely important, denial of overwhelming evidence and the emotional appeal of a relationship in which everyday responsibilities are largely absent. We also examine how an incarcerated offender can create intimacy through letters, telephone calls and carefully controlled stories while the person outside supplies money, attention, loyalty and a connection to the free world.We compare Watts with Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker, who received attention from numerous women while awaiting execution and eventually married Doreen Lioy. Her refusal to accept the evidence against him lasted for years before DNA linked Ramirez to the killing of nine-year-old Mei Leung. We also discuss Luigi Mangione and the public support, romantic attention and substantial defense contributions he received after the killing of UnitedHealthcare executive Brian Thompson. Mangione has now pleaded guilty to two federal stalking charges resulting in Thompson's death and admitted in court that he shot him; the separate New York murder prosecution is currently being challenged by his attorneys. (Associated Press)This conversation is not about assuming that every person who writes to an inmate has the same motivation. It is about understanding the different psychological needs that can make these relationships attractive, the ways imprisoned offenders may groom or manipulate people outside and the difference between a sincere claim of change and years of accountable behavior. Dr. Johnston also explains why intelligence, professional training or previous relationship experience does not necessarily protect someone from emotional manipulation.I want to hear what you think. Should Chris Watts be permitted to marry while serving life for killing Shanann, Bella, Celeste and Nico? Is a prison relationship evidence of love, a rescue effort, a redemption story or something the offender has carefully constructed?#ChrisWatts #ShanannWatts #BellaWatts #CelesteWatts #NicoWatts #LuigiMangione #BrianThompson #RichardRamirez #JoniJohnston #JennieVincow #DayleOkazaki #TsaiLianYu #VincentZazzara #MaxineZazzara #WilliamDoi #MabelBell #MaryLouiseCannon #JoyceLucilleNelson #MaxonKneiding #LelaKneiding #ChainarongKhovananth #ElyasAbowath #PeterPan #MeiLeung #TrueCrime #ForensicPsychology #PrisonRelationships #PrisonGrooming #Hybristophilia #LoveBehindBars #VictimAdvocacy #ProfilingEvil========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Discounts on eBikes: https://aipasbike.com/?ref=PROFILINGEVILReferral Coupon Code: PROFILINGEVIL========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================
Patrick Clancy has never been charged with anything in his children's deaths. That hasn't stopped the internet from trying him anyway — twice, from two different directions. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott join Tony Brueski to break down the online case against a man neither prosecutors nor Lindsay's own defense team has ever pointed at. On TikTok, testimony about a blood stain on a windowsill turned into a fully staged theory by the same night: Patrick pushing Lindsay out the window. New photos of his second wife got lined up next to old photos of Lindsay — same hair, same build — and a wedding three years after the deaths became proof of a plan. On a separate front, the case has split almost entirely by gender. Men on X want Lindsay punished as severely as possible and ignore the psychosis defense outright. Women online have gone the other way, branding Patrick a narcissist and repeatedly invoking Chris Watts by name. Patrick told the jury directly he wasn't married to a monster. Dreeke and Scott walk through how a medical symptom Lindsay described got reread online as evidence against her husband, why his remarriage reads as guilt to two completely different audiences, and what it does to a grieving father to be convicted by an internet that was never in the courtroom and never heard the evidence.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Nobody in the Lindsay Clancy courtroom has accused Patrick Clancy of anything. Online, it's a different story entirely. Retired FBI behavioral analyst Robin Dreeke and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott join Tony Brueski to unpack how a man who testified about burying his own three children became a target for two opposite theories running at the same time. On TikTok, a blood-stain expert's testimony about the windowsill turned into a fully built scenario overnight: Patrick shoving Lindsay through the glass. Photos of his new wife got placed next to old photos of Lindsay, hair and build matched up, and a wedding three years after his children's deaths became evidence of a plan. On a separate front, the case has split almost cleanly by gender. Men on X want maximum punishment for Lindsay and no engagement with the psychosis defense or the thirteen medications from five prescribers. Women online have taken the opposite position, casting Patrick as a narcissist and invoking Chris Watts by name. Patrick told the jury directly that he wasn't married to a monster. Lindsay's own attorney has told the jury she killed her children. Dreeke and Scott trace how a medical symptom got recast as a motive, why remarriage reads as guilt to both camps for opposite reasons, and what it costs a father to be tried by an audience that was never in the courtroom.

The Lindsay Clancy trial has produced a second trial that's happening entirely online — and Patrick Clancy is the one standing in the dock. Robin Dreeke, retired FBI behavioral analyst, and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott join Tony Brueski to break down how two very different corners of the internet reached the same conclusion about a man neither prosecutors nor the defense has ever accused. TikTok watched testimony about a windowsill blood stain and had a full scene constructed by nightfall — Patrick pushing Lindsay through the window. New photos of his second wife got set beside old photos of Lindsay, and a wedding that happened three years after his children died turned into a theory about replacement. Elsewhere, the fight has split by gender: men on X pushing for Lindsay to face maximum punishment with no interest in her psychosis defense, women on Threads and Instagram calling Patrick a narcissist and invoking the name Chris Watts. He testified, in his own words, that he wasn't married to a monster. Dreeke and Scott explain how a medical symptom — a voice Lindsay said she heard — got reinterpreted online as evidence against her husband instead, why remarriage became proof of guilt to two audiences reading it in opposite directions, and what all of it does to a father who buried three children and then had to defend himself to strangers who were never in that courtroom.

Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts labor and delivery nurse on trial for killing her three children, ages five, three, and eight months, received more than 30 different psychiatric prescriptions in just four months and was never diagnosed with postpartum psychosis before the killings. While she has admitted to the murders, a wave of TikTok and true crime creators has spent the past week building an entirely different case against her husband, Patrick Clancy, pointing to a half marathon photo with his now wife, Dr. Rachel Danis, a Bratz doll crime scene recreation, and a Nancy Grace segment about the couple sitting too close together. Chalene checked every theory against the actual court testimony. She also breaks down the one piece of evidence the judge won't let the public hear, Patrick's 911 call, described by courtroom insiders, including NBC10 Boston's Sue O'Connell, as the most gut wrenching audio they have ever heard. Topics discussed: Lindsay Clancy, Patrick Clancy, Cora Clancy, Dawson Clancy, Callan Clancy, Dr. Rachel Danis, McLean Hospital, postpartum psychosis, postpartum depression, SSRIs, Bermuda Half Marathon, Don't F**k with Cats, Nancy Grace, Shannon Hill, Sue O'Connell, Commonwealth Confidential, Casey Anthony, George Anthony, Chris Watts.

A woman from Cleveland moved to Wisconsin, took the surname of Watts – a man serving five life sentences for killing his entire family – and filed to marry him. Women have been doing this for well over a century, and the ones who later walked away have almost never been asked why.BOOK: “They Told Me My Newborn Died – They Lied” by Darren Marlar: https://amzn.to/4ihvu3kEPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/wattsandlizzieREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/yzmw3jdnThis episode includes references to suicide and to the deaths of children.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: August 19, 2026This episode of Weird Darkness covers the marriage application Chris Watts filed from a Wisconsin prison eight years after murdering his pregnant wife and their two young daughters, and the long record of women who write to, visit and marry men who will never get out.It opens at Dodge Correctional Institution in Waupun, Wisconsin, where an inmate may touch a visitor twice, once at the start of a visit and once at the end, an embrace reporting puts at roughly ten seconds. On August 12th, 2026 the Daily Mail reported that Chris Watts, 41, and a 39-year-old Cleveland realtor named Lizzie Henderson had applied to marry inside the Wisconsin prison system. Lizzie had moved from Ohio to Wisconsin with her mother, filed a sealed petition for a confidential name change on September 12th, 2025, and appeared in prison visitor logs roughly twenty times during 2025, plus a visit on Christmas Day of 2024. Wisconsin handles these requests under policy 309.00.06, PIOC Marriages, which routes the application through a marriage coordinator and leaves the decision with the warden. No ceremony or license has been documented, and Watts has no projected release date.From there the episode goes back to the family. The Watts family doorbell camera recorded Shanann Watts arriving home at 1:48 in the morning on August 13th, 2018 at 2825 Saratoga Trail in Frederick, Colorado. She was 34 and fifteen weeks pregnant with a son the couple had named Nico, raising daughters Bella, four, and Celeste, three, and selling Thrive for Le-Vel while her husband worked for Anadarko Petroleum and carried on an affair with co-worker Nichol Kessinger. Watts failed a polygraph administered by Colorado Bureau of Investigation agent Tammy Lee, blamed Shanann for the girls' deaths, then retracted it. A drone over an Anadarko site called CERVI 319 found Shanann in a shallow grave and both girls submerged in crude oil inside storage tanks with eight-inch hatches. Judge Marcelo Kopcow sentenced him on November 19th, 2018 to five life sentences plus 84 years. In a February 2019 interview at Waupun, Watts described smothering Celeste in his truck while Bella sat beside her, and hearing Bella's last two words, "Daddy, no!", every time he closes his eyes.The second half opens in the autumn of 1921, when French railways ran extra trains to Versailles for the trial of Henri Désiré Landru, a furniture dealer who placed lonely-hearts advertisements in Paris newspapers and murdered eleven people. Women mailed him proposals of marriage while he awaited the guillotine. The modern version runs through Meet-An-Inmate, launched in 1998, and WriteAPrisoner, founded by Adam Lovell in 2000, which post profiles written on paper because American prisons allow no internet access; Susan Smith drew more than six thousand letters before pulling her listing in 2003. Hybristophilia, the term journalists reach for, was coined by sexologist John Money in 1986 and has never appeared in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual. Sheila Isenberg's Women Who Love Men Who Kill, forensic psychologist Katherine Ramsland's "perfect boyfriend" model, and sociologist Megan Comfort's San Quentin fieldwork in Doing Time Together supply what the women themselves say they are getting.Two 2025 studies found that actively seeking out romanticizing TikTok content correlated with attraction while passive exposure predicted nothing. The risk is documented in the killings of Regina Capobianco and John Mann by her pen pal Thomas Knuff in Parma Heights, Ohio, and in the strangling deaths of Stephanie Dowells and Tania Thomas during family visits at Mule Creek State Prison. The marriages run from Nina Van Zandt, who married Haymarket defendant August Spies by proxy in 1887 and may have married an innocent man, through Ted Bundy and Carole Ann Boone, Doreen Lioy and Richard Ramirez at San Quentin, the Twinkie that served as Erik Menendez and Tammi Saccoman's wedding cake, and James Whitehouse, who wrote to Susan Atkins in 1985 and went on to Harvard Law School to serve as her attorney. All of it rests on Turner v. Safley, the 1987 Supreme Court decision in which Justice Sandra Day O'Connor noted that most inmates are eventually released, leaving the man who never will be an untested case. Rhode Island's 1909 civil death statute declared lifers "dead in all respects", and Britain barred whole-life prisoners from marrying in 2024 after Milly Dowler's murderer Levi Bellfield was granted permission.The episode closes on the women who leave, absent from every study in the field. Lynn Hartman ended her engagement to Steven Avery in October of 2016 and wrote that she had been fooled by the Netflix documentary. Paula Williamson married Charles Bronson at HMP Wakefield in November of 2017, had it annulled in 2019, and died that July at thirty-eight. Anna Eriksson divorced Lyle Menendez in 2001 and still argues for his release. No agency counts prison marriages, and every figure circulating online is unsourced. Chris Watts belongs to a long file rather than a new one, having received his first letters from strangers within weeks of his December 2018 sentencing, before he had written a word to any of them.LIKE WHAT YOU'RE HEARING?

This week on Headline Highlights: Lindsay Clancy's journals and searches shed new light on her mental state, while the defense challenged key evidence. A Michigan family of eight was found shot to death, with investigators uncovering multiple fires and missing smoke detectors. Newly unsealed records reveal Bryan Kohberger's autism, OCD, ADHD, and ARFID diagnoses, raising questions about his future appeals. A “Philly House of Horrors” investigation uncovered missing women, weapons, drugs, chemicals, and disturbing digital evidence. Chris Watts is reportedly set to marry a woman he met while behind bars, who moved closer to him and changed her name to “Lizzie Watts”..If you're new here, don't forget to follow the show for weekly deep dives into the darkest true crime cases!

Comment sections across every platform covering the Lindsay Clancy trial contain people describing the same thing. They can't sleep. Their hands shake when they read the updates. They're posting at two in the morning with genuine fury about a family in Duxbury, Massachusetts, they have never met.Both sides in the trial agree Lindsay killed Cora, Dawson, and Callan. Her defense attorney conceded it. The prosecution built its case around it. The only question before the jury is criminal responsibility. None of that has stopped TikTok creators from accusing Patrick Clancy of being the real killer, comparing him to Chris Watts, and building theories around body temperature data and Apple Watch readings that have been addressed in testimony.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott has spent thirty years studying what happens when a brain encounters information it can't accept. She joins Tony Brueski to explain why the people in those comment sections aren't performing — their bodies are responding to this trial the way they'd respond to a genuine threat. She covers the difference between analysis and fortress-building, why evidence makes the conspiracy stronger instead of weaker, and what it means when a case refuses to give you a villain.This is Part 1 of three conversations with Shavaun on the psychology of the culture war over Lindsay Clancy.Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, author of Nightbird, discuss why the Lindsay Clancy trial is producing a measurable psychological response in the people watching.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Lindsay Clancy's treatment plan barely moved after a nurse practitioner flagged bipolar disorder in 2022 — and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott explains why that matters, while defense attorney Eric Faddis tackles an entirely different fight brewing online. Lindsay has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder after the deaths of five-year-old Cora, three-year-old Dawson, and eight-month-old Callan. Her defense concedes she killed them and argues postpartum illness left her not criminally responsible. Prosecutors argue she knew what she was doing. Months before the killings, nurse practitioner Rebecca Jollotta told Lindsay and her husband she might have bipolar disorder, based partly on a forty-eight-hour stretch without sleep after starting an antidepressant. She added an antipsychotic used for bipolar disorder and insomnia, but the antidepressant kept going. Dr. Jennifer Tufts testified she considered bipolar disorder that December and ruled it out for lack of mania — euphoria, high energy, grandiosity. McLean Hospital staff discussed sleep loss tipping someone hypomanic before discharging Lindsay with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder. Shavaun walks through how long a bipolar diagnosis typically takes to land, why depression gets diagnosed first almost every time, and whether the standard clinical checklist was ever built with a mother of three small children in mind. From there, Faddis shifts to Patrick Clancy, who's now being accused on TikTok of murdering his own children — compared to Chris Watts, blamed for pushing Lindsay from a window — despite Lindsay's own defense team conceding in open court that she did it. Faddis explains what legal options actually exist against creators reaching millions of people, and why "theory" framing doesn't always hold up.

The prosecution in the Lindsay Clancy trial is three weeks into presenting its case, and the ground it has lost may not be recoverable. The state's own witnesses have consistently painted a picture that helps the defense — a devoted mother, a Seroquel spiral, thirteen medications, a psychiatrist who treated her by video call and never met her face to face.Lindsay Clancy's defense conceded she killed her children and is arguing she was in the grip of postpartum psychosis. Kevin Reddington told the jury she heard voices. He's read her journal entries about intrusive thoughts and desperation. He's dismantled the prosecution's medical witnesses on cross-examination. No clinician diagnosed psychosis before the killings.While the trial plays out in Plymouth Superior Court, TikTok creators are accusing Patrick Clancy of being the real killer. They're comparing him to Chris Watts and scrutinizing his remarriage. Lindsay's own defense team has told the jury she did it.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis examines the prosecution's position, the defense's strategy, and the legal landscape for a father facing murder accusations from social media creators while his ex-wife's trial determines whether she was too sick to be held responsible for their children's deaths.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The prosecution in the Lindsay Clancy trial set out to prove she was sane and acted deliberately. Three weeks in, its own witnesses have told the jury she was a wonderful mother who was deteriorating while the medical system watched. Patrick Clancy described a Seroquel spiral. The nanny saw a devoted parent. The psychiatrist admitted she never met Lindsay in person.The defense conceded Lindsay killed her children and is arguing she was consumed by postpartum psychosis. Kevin Reddington has used the prosecution's witnesses to build his own case — exposing telehealth-only treatment, incomplete records, and a prescribing pattern he's called horrific. He told the jury Lindsay heard voices. The psychosis diagnosis didn't come until after the crime.And on TikTok, creators are accusing Patrick Clancy of being the real killer. They're comparing him to Chris Watts and scrutinizing his remarriage while both sides in the courtroom agree Lindsay did it.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis covers all three angles — the prosecution's problems, the defense's strategy and risks, and the legal question of what Patrick can do about conspiracy theories targeting him during the trial.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Three weeks of testimony in the Lindsay Clancy trial have created three separate stories. Inside the courtroom, the prosecution's witnesses keep helping the defense — the nanny, the pediatrician, and Patrick Clancy himself all described a loving mother falling apart. The prosecution's psychiatrist admitted she never met Lindsay in person across fourteen sessions.The defense has conceded Lindsay killed her children and is arguing postpartum psychosis. Reddington has dismantled every provider on the stand and told the jury Lindsay heard voices that day. The psychosis diagnosis came after the crime, from a forensic psychiatrist.Outside the courtroom, TikTok creators have built a conspiracy theory accusing Patrick of being the real killer. They're comparing him to Chris Watts. They're treating his remarriage as evidence. Both sides in the courtroom agree Lindsay did it.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down the prosecution's case, the defense's strategy, and whether Patrick Clancy has any legal recourse against the creators who are accusing him of murder on platforms with millions of viewers.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

While Lindsay Clancy stands trial for killing her three children, TikTok creators are accusing her ex-husband Patrick of being the real killer. They're comparing him to Chris Watts. They're claiming Lindsay didn't jump from the second-floor window — he pushed her. Lindsay's own defense attorney has admitted in open court that she killed the children and is arguing she was not criminally responsible.The conspiracy theories have escalated during the trial. Creators are analyzing Patrick's remarriage to Dr. Rachel Danis, scrutinizing his courtroom demeanor, and constructing narratives that directly contradict the evidence presented before the jury. Patrick is a Microsoft employee living in New York. He testified as the prosecution's first witness and described finding his children after returning from running errands.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis examines the legal question at the center of the social media circus: can Patrick do anything about creators accusing him of murder to audiences of millions? Where the line between opinion and defamation falls. What it means that Patrick likely isn't a traditional public figure. Whether the Alex Jones and Sandy Hook precedent applies. And the practical challenge of filing defamation lawsuits against anonymous creators across multiple jurisdictions with no guarantee of collecting damages.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Patrick Clancy lost three children on January 24, 2023. Now TikTok creators are accusing him of killing them. They're comparing him to Chris Watts. They're posting theories that Lindsay didn't jump from the window — he pushed her. They're dissecting his remarriage and his testimony for signs of guilt.Lindsay Clancy's own defense team has told the jury she killed the children. The defense isn't arguing innocence — it's arguing she was not criminally responsible due to postpartum psychosis. The conspiracy theories on social media contradict the position of both the prosecution and the defense.The scrutiny has intensified during the trial. Newsweek published an analysis of the "TikTok jury" phenomenon forming around this case. The Boston Globe ran an opinion piece calling the social media coverage an indictment of public discourse. Creators are examining Patrick's remarriage to Dr. Rachel Danis, comparing his new wife to Lindsay, and framing the speed of his remarriage as suspicious.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down whether Patrick Clancy has legal options against creators who are accusing him of murder online. The difference between a protected opinion and an actionable defamation claim. Whether Patrick qualifies as a public or private figure. What the Alex Jones and Sandy Hook precedent established. And the practical reality of pursuing lawsuits against creators who are anonymous, scattered across multiple states, and unlikely to have assets worth collecting.Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Chris Watts is serving life without parole for murdering his pregnant wife, Shanann, and their daughters, Bella and Celeste. Now, Lizzie Henderson has publicly confirmed that she is in a relationship with Watts, while reporting says she moved from Ohio to Wisconsin, visited him 23 times in about fifteen months, sought to change her surname and joined him in requesting permission to marry. In this episode, I separate what Henderson has said herself from details attributed to other outlets, examine what is known about the relationship, and ask why a woman would build a future around a man who destroyed his own family. I compare the case with Richard Ramirez and Doreen Lioy, including my friend Phil Carlo's firsthand view of their prison wedding, and use the available research to explain attraction to notorious offenders, rescue fantasies, controlled intimacy, denial, notoriety and the very unusual relationship structure created by prison walls.#ChrisWatts #LizzieHenderson #ShanannWatts #BellaWatts #CelesteWatts #RichardRamirez #DoreenLioy #PhilCarlo #Waupun #Wisconsin #Ohio #PrisonMarriage #TrueCrime #CrimeNews #ProfilingEvil #NightStalker #Murder #Homicide #Profiling #Behavior #crime #criminal========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Discounts on eBikes: https://aipasbike.com/?ref=PROFILINGEVILReferral Coupon Code: PROFILINGEVIL========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================

TikTok creators are posting videos accusing Patrick Clancy of murdering his own children. They're calling him the next Chris Watts. They're claiming he pushed Lindsay out the window. Both the prosecution and Lindsay's own defense team agree that Lindsay killed the children — the only dispute is whether she was criminally responsible.Patrick has become one of the most discussed figures on social media during the trial. Creators are scrutinizing his remarriage, analyzing his testimony, and building alternate narratives that contradict the evidence in court. He's not a public figure by choice. He's a father who lost three children and testified in the case that took them from him.Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis breaks down Patrick's legal options. Whether these accusations constitute defamation. Whether calling something a theory or asking questions protects a creator from liability. What the Alex Jones verdict means for content creators who build audiences on false claims about real people. Whether Patrick is a public or private figure in the eyes of the law. And the bottom-line question the audience wants answered: should he sue, can he win, and is it even worth it?Listen Anywhere You Get Podcasts: https://pod.link/1655749292Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Chris Watts confessed to murdering his pregnant wife Shanann and their two daughters Bella and Celeste. He is serving life without parole. And within weeks of his sentencing, his parents Ronnie and Cindy Watts were on camera redirecting blame toward Shanann — the woman their son killed.Cindy described Shanann as controlling and suggested Chris had been pushed to a breaking point. Ronnie told reporters there were unanswered questions. At sentencing, both parents quoted scripture, offered forgiveness, and told their son they would never abandon him. The Rzucek family responded publicly, calling the Watts family's statements about Shanann “vicious, grotesque and utterly false.”This is the first episode in a six-part series exploring why families stand behind the accused even when the evidence is total. In the Watts case, the answer comes down to survival: if your child is a monster, then you raised a monster, and no parent's brain is designed for that math.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Chris Watts pled guilty. He confessed in detail. His daughters' bodies were recovered from crude oil tanks at his worksite. There is nothing left to dispute. And his parents responded by forgiving him at sentencing, blaming Shanann on camera, and telling reporters there were still unanswered questions.This episode traces the Watts family's loyalty from the sentencing hearing through the media interviews, the Rzucek family's furious public response, and Cindy's declaration that she would fight for her son. It asks why a mother who knows every detail of what her child did — including his daughter begging for her life — cannot bring herself to stop defending him.The first in a six-part series about families that protect the accused. Not a retelling of the murders. A look at the parents who stood behind a confessed killer and blamed the woman he killed.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ever wonder if you've secretly dated a psychopath? Statistically, one in twenty people has psychopathic traits, and if you've been in the dating game for long, chances are you've run into one and didn't even know. This episode is here to give you tools that could literally save your heart, your sanity, and possibly your life. I'm joined by the world's #1 Communication Keynote Speaker and expert in Body Language and Human Behavior, Mark Bowden, who's here to teach us how to spot psychopaths, decode lies, and protect yourself from manipulators before it's too late. We break down the infamous Chris Watts case, dissecting the chilling body language and story inconsistencies that revealed the shocking truth. Mark gives us the ultimate five-point checklist for detecting deception, shares why some people don't show empathy, and teaches you how to read the red flags even when someone's acting like the perfect partner. This is a masterclass in self-defense of your mind, your emotions, and your intuition. SHOWNOTES Statistical reality: 1 in 20 have psychopathic traits. Chris Watts introduced as case study. What grief, concern, and anger look like (and what it means when you don't see them). Five things to watch for when detecting lies: changing stories, pronoun shifts, tense changes, oaths/euphemisms, and repeating questions. Real-time analysis of Chris Watts' story: blame shifting, lack of distress, and loss of energy. Over-protesting innocence: when it signals guilt, plus the importance of conversational stakes. The psychology behind power, narcissism, and why some choose destruction over divorce. Unmasking the inner world: how psychopathic people process “unfairness” and why they act out. How to assess guilt: what to do when your gut says “something's off.” Understanding charm as a ruse: the D4vid case and why “safe” can be smoke and mirrors. The SCAN method: suspend judgment, context, ask, new judgment, and why it can save you.

Crime Talk Store: https://crime-talk-network.myshopify.com/collections/all Chris Watts says he has regrets. The problem is what he reportedly regrets. New prison letters and inmate accounts focus on Shanann's pregnancy—not the murders themselves. Watts is serving life without parole after pleading guilty in the 2018 murders of Shanann, Bella, and Celeste. Scott breaks down remorse, accountability, prison religion, and the legal reality. Watch to the end and tell us: repentance, manipulation, or both? Hashtags: #ChrisWatts, #CrimeTalk, #TrueCrime, #ShanannWatts, #PrisonLetters, #LegalAnalysis
In this episode, we dive into one of the most chilling and heartbreaking cases we've ever covered, unraveling the story of a seemingly perfect family whose reality was far darker than anyone could have imagined. We follow the timeline from the early morning hours of August 13th through the unfolding investigation, piecing together the moments, relationships, and warning signs that led to an unthinkable outcome. But beyond the true crime, there's something else here that stopped us in our tracks. As we explore police body cam footage and overlooked moments from the case, we uncover eerie details that have left viewers questioning what's really being captured. Voices, shadowy apparitions, and possible messages from the other side. Is it coincidence, or could it be the voices of a family, still trying to be heard after their story was cut short? If someone in your life is showing warning signs of domestic danger please reach out to the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233. It's free, confidential, and available 24/7.

When thirty-four-year-old Shanann Watts missed a doctor's appointment on August 13, 2018, her friends reported her missing to the Frederick, Colorado Police. When officers searched the home, they found Shanann's car parked in the garage and her belongings—including her wallet, cell phone, and medication—were found in various spots around the house, but there was no sign of Shanann or the couple's two children anywhere. The next day, the FBI opened an investigation into the disappearance of Shanann, Bella and Celeste and Chris took to local television to give one of the most infamous and suspicious interviews of all time. He asked anyone with information about their whereabouts to come forward. The very next day however, Chris failed a polygraph exam and eventually confessed to murdering his wife, but he initially denied killing their children.

How does a "normal" husband and father commit an unimaginable crime without a single red flag? Emily Compagno sits down with licensed psychotherapist and author Lena Derhally to deconstruct the case of Chris Watts. In August 2018, Watts murdered his pregnant wife, Shanann, and their two young daughters, Bella and Celeste. Lena, author of “My Daddy is a Hero: How Chris Watts Went from Family Man to Family Killer,” provides an expert deep dive into the psychological profile of a failed psychopath and a covert narcissist. They explore the "slow-build" snap, the role of his mistress, the disturbing details of his confessions, and the terrifying reality of the "discard phase" in narcissistic abuse. The Fox Nation special, 'The Watts Murders: Phases of Deterioration,' is now available. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
