And we are live. What's up, guys? Welcome to Fed It. Today, we're going to talk about Chris Watts.
00:00:04.140
I'm here with Angie, as you guys already know. We've got a lot to cover, man. Sorry for the delayed start.
00:00:11.400
I was a special agent with Homeland Security Investigations, okay, guys? HSI.
00:00:14.700
The cases that I did mostly were human smuggling and drug trafficking.

00:00:43.200
This is 6ix9ine, and then this is Billy Seiko right here.
00:00:46.680
Now, when they first started, guys, 6ix9ine ran.
00:00:51.540
You know, I'm bobbing my head like, hey, this shit lit.
00:01:03.920
Drap with Bush Icy arrested after shooting at King of Diamonds.
00:01:07.900
This is the one that's going to fuck him up because this gun is not tracing.
00:01:12.580
Here's your boy, 42 Doug, right here on the left.
00:01:16.780
They can effectively link him to paying an underage girl.

00:01:42.440
The largest corrupt police bust in New Orleans history.
00:01:50.160
We're going to go over his past, the gang time, so that this all makes sense.
00:02:03.060
Today, we're going to be covering the Chris Watts case.
00:02:04.800
But before we do that, I got a special guest in the house that you guys have come to like quite a bit.
00:02:17.380
And we might cover another one for Thursday, right?
00:02:25.420
It's either between Murdaugh or JonBenet Ramsey.
00:02:28.660
Maybe we could take a vote from them to poll during the show.
00:02:32.100
Because you guys know the Murdaugh one, he just got, you know, sentenced to life in prison.
00:02:41.260
But anyway, real quick, let's get into the Super Chats.
00:02:50.360
We did an episode last, on Friday, where we showed the CCTV footage of, you know, those girls coming in and out, man.
00:02:59.340
It's the biggest cap I've ever seen in my life.
00:03:06.540
But yeah, man, this is literally a travesty of what's going on.
00:03:14.720
So this episode, I want to tell you all real quick.
00:03:17.460
So I had got some messages about this case, but I didn't know too much about it.
00:03:22.340
She was like, hey, this one's a really good one.
00:03:26.760
So I watched it and I was like, wow, okay, this is actually an interesting one.
00:03:29.360
Because it's not often, right, that guys end up, you know, killing their family or deleting
00:03:36.640
Actually, it's way more often than you think of.
00:03:39.540
Well, it's not often in the grand scheme of crimes.
00:03:43.440
Like, we hear about it on the news, obviously, right?
00:03:47.820
But if you look at all the murders, right, most of the time, it's not going to be a dude
00:03:59.360
Because you got Murdoch, you got Chris Watts, you got Chris Benoit, who's a famous wrestler.
00:04:03.260
I know you guys asked me about Chris Benoit as well.
00:04:23.380
So, oh, Jerome, of course, goes, Myron Payne, Angela Eggplants.
00:04:35.900
And just so y'all know, we did not have sexual relations before this show, right?
00:04:40.140
And she was up here taking some notes and preparing for y'all.
00:04:48.780
And then we got Jawanza Evans goes, is it true that Andrew Tate has cancer?
00:05:02.340
S, your wife, Angie Gaines, is looking good for once.
00:05:06.360
You're saying that you're looking good for once.
00:05:11.860
She's used to you guys making fun of her at this point.
00:05:15.160
So, anything else you want to say before we get into the...
00:05:29.540
Guys, I don't really appreciate you commenting on my posts, really.
00:05:45.900
And you have also commented that on other videos before.
00:05:55.900
Is this someone posing as you, though, on OnlyFans?
00:05:58.520
Is this someone using your pictures or something like that on OnlyFans?
00:06:04.020
trying to, like, promote fake OnlyFans with my pictures.
00:06:10.720
But people be asking for my OnlyFans as if I have OnlyFans.
00:06:27.480
You send me the cases doesn't mean that we are going to do it, like, right away.
00:06:41.160
So, I mean, you got to give us time to, you know, research.
00:06:46.220
To consider to, you know, do the polls and everything.
00:06:48.980
Because anytime we get a case, guys, what we do is we typically watch a documentary on
00:06:53.100
it, like, read through it, see if it's going to be good for y'all.
00:06:56.700
And then if it's boring or it's kind of whack or something or too similar to something else
00:07:01.020
And the reason why is because we want to make sure that we get y'all, you know.
00:07:03.740
And also, we look at, like, what people are requesting the most.
00:07:06.520
So, whatever is requested the most that also has good content on it, we typically cover
00:07:09.960
it because we want to give y'all good content at the end of the day, bro.
00:07:12.760
Like, I mean, we could always do, you know, random cases here and there or everything else
00:07:16.480
But I want each piece of content to come out to be super high quality.
00:07:20.500
We're releasing two videos a week right now, one on Sunday and then one on Thursday.
00:07:23.540
I'm thinking about potentially bumping it up to three times per week.
00:07:27.980
That's going to be very difficult because researching for these cases takes quite a bit of time.
00:07:39.320
Chief Keefe goes, can y'all check out Shemaya Hall, Italy, Texas?
00:07:47.420
We should send them boys after the Tate accusers.
00:07:51.040
Man, we don't know what them boys is involved in.
00:07:57.260
Showing some love to the best streamer on the tubes.
00:07:59.460
Thank you for all the effort you put into these.
00:08:06.880
No, it's going to be a book on networking, guys, is what he's going to be putting out for y'all.
00:08:11.400
So that's his expertise right there, is networking and getting into certain cliques and everything else like that.
00:08:19.420
Yo, man, I knew they were going to make fun of that.
00:08:35.580
Anyway, but, guys, so we're going to go ahead and get into this breakdown.
00:08:39.800
As you guys know, I really like reacting to their videos.
00:08:42.240
This is a three-parter here of the Chris Watts case.
00:08:48.220
I guess we'll just get into it and do a breakdown of the investigation.
00:08:51.040
Oh, real quick, before I even do that, who is Chris Watts?
00:08:53.740
So, guys, Chris Watts, as y'all can see, Christopher Watts, was sentenced to, well, let's go to, let's go here.
00:09:02.780
Christopher Lee Watts, born May 16, 1985, in the early hours of August 13, 2018, in Frederick, Colorado.
00:09:08.940
This is the case page, you know, like the family murders.
00:09:12.560
American oil field operator Christopher Lee Watts murdered his pregnant wife, Shannon, 34, by strangulation,
00:09:18.080
and their two children, Bella 4 and Celeste 3, by smothering them.
00:09:20.920
He burned Shannon in a shallow grave near an oil storage facility and dumped his children's bodies into crude oil tanks.
00:09:27.620
Watts initially maintained his innocence in his family's disappearance, but was arrested on August 15 after confessed to murdering Shannon and interviewed detectives.
00:09:39.020
From JCS, do me a quick favor before we get into this thing.
00:09:44.080
This is a very disturbing case, but y'all requested it, so let's get into it.
00:09:51.840
The drama began shortly after the Frederick Police Department received a call from Nicole Atkinson, the best friend of Shannon Watts.
00:09:58.980
She had arranged to drive Shannon into town that same day for a pregnancy checkup, but there was no answer when she knocked at the door, nor any response to her text messages or phone calls.
00:10:08.600
After noticing her shoes were still at the front door, she became concerned and called 911.
00:10:15.600
So, my friend, we were out of town for a business trip this weekend, and I dropped her off at 2 o'clock this morning.
00:10:23.860
She wasn't feeling well, and she had a doctor's appointment this morning at 9, and I told her to let me know if she needed me to take her.
00:10:34.380
Her shoes she wears every single day are right in the front door.
00:11:04.040
They're saying she's diabetic, and I don't want her...
00:11:12.300
It's not a sure sign of guilty conduct, yet the fact that Chris made the officer wait for his return
00:11:17.800
would have most likely alerted some minor suspicion.
00:11:20.380
In normal circumstances, a husband receiving a call from the police saying they were concerned
00:11:25.540
about the safety of their pregnant wife and children, in most cases, would have given
00:11:29.640
them permission to immediately kick the door down.
00:11:31.960
It's a truly somber awareness to know that the man stepping out of the car had only a
00:11:36.460
very short time ago dumped his infant daughter's bodies into an oil tank and buried his pregnant
00:11:50.460
Do you guys just notice how he said, hey, what's going on?
00:11:52.900
And just immediately goes right into the garage.
00:11:57.140
Normally, if you hear something like this, like, oh, your pregnant wife is in some trouble
00:12:00.960
or what's going on here, he would be frantic, panicking, like, what's going on?
00:12:06.440
And then he just like runs right into the house and he goes through the garage, which is
00:12:10.020
So I want you guys to pay attention to that, uh, that behavior.
00:12:15.820
The familiar routine for anyone checking for someone's presence inside a house, whether
00:12:20.360
it be an emergency or otherwise, is to immediately call out to them for instantaneous reassurance.
00:12:25.500
Chris remains silent, but instead feels the need to examine his wife's car before subtly
00:12:35.640
...and disappears for one minute and seven seconds before letting the neighbors and police
00:12:40.660
Only Chris will know what he carried out during that time period, but it's safe to assume
00:12:45.060
that his curious behavior was not going unnoticed, made evident by the unsettled gaze of Nicole
00:12:53.840
Like, like, bro, why'd you go into the garage instead of just letting us come with you or
00:13:01.820
Like, this is just strange because remember, yeah, it's sketch because and again, he checked
00:13:06.800
that Lexus vehicle, his wife's vehicle before anything.
00:13:09.800
Then he ran to the house without saying a word randomly.
00:13:13.260
There's like, all right, guys, I'm gonna open the door for you guys on the front.
00:13:15.560
Yeah, so even the friend is looking like, this is strange, like, what's going on here?
00:13:21.920
Hey, please, permission to welcome my daughter to the house.
00:13:26.540
There were multiple key moments captured from inside the house, which may not have been
00:13:31.240
And I don't know if you guys caught that, but the reason why the police officer said,
00:13:36.480
The reason why he's doing that, guys, is because probably subconsciously the police officer
00:13:40.580
knows, I don't know if I'm welcome in this home because he hasn't, even though there's
00:13:44.020
like some danger or whatever, when 911 called and asked him if we could kick it in, he said
00:13:49.240
Then when he went into the home, he didn't say, come with me.
00:13:51.720
So the officer has to verbally ask him, hey, do you mind if I come in?
00:13:55.660
And that's when he said, oh, yeah, that's cool.
00:13:58.940
And remember, guys, when it comes to police going into your home, right, right to be means
00:14:06.120
And anything they see that could be involved, that could potentially incriminate them or anything
00:14:16.300
And if he's given consent that he can go into the house, that means he's right.
00:14:24.060
So that's why that police officer asked that, because at that point, he knows in the back
00:14:27.060
of his mind, this dude is acting a little weird.
00:14:30.540
So let me ask for it immediately by the officer, but would have no doubt been gathered by forensics
00:14:37.640
The most overt peculiarity was Chris's interaction with his phone.
00:14:41.260
The guise of his thumb movement would have given the impression he was texting someone,
00:14:45.220
which would have seemed very peculiar, as the normal response would be to frantically
00:14:48.960
call people rather than text, given the circumstances.
00:14:52.120
Hindsight gives us a clearer picture of Chris's introversion, which is that he was most likely
00:14:56.680
using his phone to avoid eye contact and progressive dialogue with the officer.
00:15:18.480
Does she usually watch the kids, or do you have daycare to watch them?
00:15:21.400
She usually watches the kids at the high school.
00:15:24.640
Do you guys have any kind of issues, marital issues, or?
00:15:45.480
Like, yo, my man is out here surfing through Instagram, or what are you doing?
00:15:49.060
Bro, like, he's out here liking Thotty's pictures, or what's going on here, man?
00:15:55.120
Yo, I love that y'all are saying L, Chris, in the chat, and saying Chris is a bum and shit.
00:16:05.020
Additionally, we are presented with the subtle cues of Chris's forethought cover story,
00:16:09.560
being that his wife simply ran off with the kids after a breakdown in the marriage.
00:16:15.640
My man letting all them girls know he's single now.
00:16:26.100
Um, they're blankies they sleep with, they don't leave anywhere without him?
00:16:29.920
The rest of Chris's conduct could be analyzed and dissected in various ways,
00:16:51.640
and it would be easy to pick at certain oddities in body language and link them with signs of guilt.
00:16:56.120
Yet, without the hindsight we have now, his behavior could just as easily be linked with an innocent man
00:17:01.520
who is understandably concerned and frantic over the disappearance of his family.
00:17:05.700
His very conservant neighbor, however, had the perceptual advantage of knowing Chris on a semi-personal level,
00:17:11.460
and could analyze his kinesics in a far more accurate manner than the police officer.
00:17:15.880
If you just want to go talk to him, I'm going to get his info real quick.
00:17:29.600
And bro, this is their friend, this is, well, allegedly his friend, saying this.
00:17:59.260
So, obviously, as a police officer, that raises your suspicion to a whole other level, right?
00:18:04.960
So, um, he's acting way out of character, and one of the worst times in a normal person's life,
00:18:10.780
finding out that your children and your wife are missing.
00:18:12.740
This was just after the moment he had shown both Chris and the officer his surveillance footage of that same morning,
00:18:36.180
capturing only Chris leaving the house after loading multiple unidentified things into his truck.
00:18:41.300
Oh, okay, loading a bunch of things in his truck, dark at night, or early morning.
00:18:46.940
Not only this guy was, like, suspicious of him, but also the woman, because the woman that called the police
00:18:55.780
Yes, the one that was shocked when he was, like, opening the front door.
00:18:58.360
Yeah, so what happened before is that she texted him because his wife had an appointment, like, a medical appointment,
00:19:11.800
And she was, what, 30-something weeks pregnant, right?
00:19:17.120
She was, like, in her fourth month or something like that.
00:19:21.460
So, anyways, she texted him to know what happened to Chanin, which is the wife.
00:19:27.260
And he was, like, yeah, she went on a play date, but they only have one car.
00:19:41.140
And they have this thing in the house where they send you, like, an alarm to your phone every time you feel something.
00:19:48.120
So he was getting alarmed, notifications when she was trying to open the door.
00:19:51.680
He was getting notifications, and she told him, yo, I'm going to call the police.
00:19:54.660
And then he was, like, no, don't call the police.
00:19:58.440
Like, she called the police, and that's when he got there, and he got all nervous.
00:20:05.060
Yeah, he was, like, please don't call the police.
00:20:20.280
Let's get this thing to 1,000 likes, man, so that we can get the engagement up, so videos like this can, you know, hit the algo a little bit harder.
00:20:26.420
Because, you know, we're providing all types of content out here, man.
00:20:31.080
I'll get anything coming this way and make it a turn.
00:20:34.420
So, and usually at night, I pick up the cars coming your turn.
00:20:38.680
So, unless they pull it right here, I'll put out a car for walking now.
00:20:43.440
Although not fully incriminating, as Shannon and the kids could have left through the back entrance, this was an extremely detrimental piece of evidence and would have no doubt been extolled by forensics and made Chris an immediate prime suspect.
00:20:56.900
And you guys can see how his uncomfortable behavior while his neighbor was talking about potentially another camera angle.
00:21:01.520
So, let's look at Chris Watts real quick when he's describing this.
00:21:06.940
Although not fully incriminating, as Shannon and the kids could have left through the back entrance, this was an extremely detrimental piece of evidence and would have no doubt been extolled by forensics and made Chris an immediate prime suspect.
00:21:31.520
The following day, Chris, for some bizarre reason, agreed to be interviewed by two separate news stations where he came across as extremely unimpassioned and detached from the alarming nature of the situation.
00:21:42.940
Like, now, guys, remember, this is a guy that's an introvert.
00:21:49.320
So, the fact that he would give two interviews, right, to news stations right after this is kind of...
00:21:57.520
But it looks to me as if he's like, yo, I got to paint a narrative first before people suspect me of something.
00:22:05.600
When I got home yesterday, it was like a ghost town.
00:22:13.320
Right now, it's got K-9 units, the sheriff's department.
00:22:17.580
Everybody's like, they're doing their best right now to figure out, like, if they can get a scent.
00:22:24.320
Like, once I got here, it was like, all right, who can I call?
00:22:27.900
I called her three times, texted her about three times just to say, you know, what's going on?
00:22:33.800
Like, if she's vanished, like, I want her back so bad.
00:22:58.400
I don't even want to just, like, throw anything out there.
00:23:00.780
Like, I hope that she's somewhere safe right now and with the kids.
00:23:08.220
I wanted to see the kids running, just barrel rush me and just give me a hug.
00:23:33.700
Something or somebody knows something and comes forward.
00:23:37.360
Shanann, Bella, Celeste, if you're out there, just come back.
00:23:58.660
It doesn't look to me as if a guy lost his wife and children.
00:24:02.700
To me, I look at it like, this is a dude that's single and about to hit the market.
00:24:16.860
This house is not complete without anybody here.
00:24:21.320
This could have been construed as shock trauma, where a person will turn numb and retreat into
00:24:27.820
Yet the viewers watching this live from home were probably thinking what we as the retrospective
00:24:34.400
He was called in for questioning four hours later.
00:24:51.660
I know you're going through a lot, so I'm not going to keep you around the night.
00:24:56.220
Tell me exactly what you remember, and I'll take notes about where we can go.
00:25:08.740
I said, when they come knocking, I got me to the key.
00:25:11.100
One of the oldest and most commonly used techniques is for the interrogator to sit between the
00:25:17.260
This is for the purpose of heightening the feelings of isolation and dependence.
00:25:21.180
It's an indirect subliminal message, letting Chris know that the only way out of that room
00:25:26.980
It's an excellent tool for stripping away confidence, thus increasing the telling signs
00:25:31.540
and body language when information is fabricated.
00:25:38.180
And I'm seeing this, get dressed, brush my teeth, everything I do upstairs.
00:25:43.360
That's when I get back to slide right into bed next to her and start having a conversation
00:25:52.040
Alright, so he's going into, guys, having a discussion with his wife about putting the
00:25:58.600
And he's going to go into, and I know the audio isn't the best here, as you guys know,
00:26:04.140
A lot of times the audio is like very bouncy or whatever.
00:26:06.680
But he's talking about, he's going to talk about some marital issues and also them selling
00:26:11.240
Talking about stuff like actually going, proceeding with the separation.
00:26:19.720
Like we're talking about, you know, like we felt this, this connection was there, like
00:26:23.200
falling out of love and trying to stay together.
00:26:26.900
It may have just for the kids' sake, but realizing that doing like our homework, it's not, most of
00:26:33.780
So, um, he basically says he got ready for work, goes to work, receives a call from the
00:26:42.580
And as you guys know, right, shout out to Angie, um, he didn't want the police to be called
00:26:52.280
So that's when I got home, I opened the garage door, and we went inside the house.
00:26:56.940
And also, I want you guys to pay attention to his body language.
00:26:58.920
He doesn't really look at the detective in the eye.
00:27:02.800
Um, you guys remember, we did a podcast with, uh, Andrew Bustamante from the CIA, uh, former
00:27:07.560
And he talked about how, um, the part of your brain that, um, is the creative side, right?
00:27:12.900
When you're trying to imagine things, uh, it's activated more when you look down and
00:27:17.500
you're telling something versus when you're, you know, you tend to be a little bit more
00:27:21.020
honest when you're looking up, cause you're trying to draw from your memory and stay factual,
00:27:24.920
So notice how much he looks down when he's telling this story.
00:27:29.920
Um, now, does it mean that every single time you look down, it means you're like,
00:27:33.620
There's always exceptions, but it is a good tool to gauge, uh, the truthfulness of an
00:27:38.940
And then also I want you guys to pay attention to how he mumbles when he tells his story here.
00:27:43.480
It's not very, um, he speaks in a very passive voice.
00:28:12.720
I was just hoping that, I'm going to let all the lights on in the house.
00:28:22.200
At first, I really thought maybe she was just at somebody's house.
00:28:27.680
Yeah, but after today, like with the onslaught of all the cars, I mean, all the police cars,
00:28:34.340
all the news, all the canine units, it's making me lean the other direction about someone took her.
00:28:42.200
But it's just, if someone took her, it would have to have been someone she knew.
00:28:49.660
Because there's no sign of anything like being disturbed, broken.
00:28:56.440
At first, I thought, for real, she was just decompressing somewhere.
00:29:01.460
Even though everything in the house was left there.
00:29:04.660
But now, it's just after the day with the news crews and everything, it's just, it feels more the other direction.
00:29:17.180
On that night, I told her, I woke up that morning, early that morning, I told her, like, the disconnection is, it's there.
00:29:24.940
Like, the connection we had in the beginning, it's not there anymore.
00:29:30.700
It's like, I don't feel like the love we have is there anymore.
00:29:37.160
And it's just, like, I don't feel like, I mean, if we want to stay together for the kids, I'm not sure if that's going to work.
00:29:46.700
Like, having another baby bring us in this relationship.
00:29:49.300
Do you think this is going to work with us being together?
00:29:52.640
Or separation, I think, is going to be the best possible route for us.
00:29:58.000
And that's when, like, all the crime and everything proceeded.
00:30:00.400
And it was just, it was very hard just to talk, talk about that.
00:30:11.320
Like, while I did it, I couldn't text, phone, whatever.
00:30:14.200
I needed to be face to face and be able to see her and know that she was going to be at least reciprocating back to me.
00:30:25.600
She said that it was, I mean, it was, she wants, she wanted to kind of work on it.
00:30:30.980
But if that's the way I was feeling, then she respects that.
00:30:41.720
Just because you're worried based on the conversation.
00:30:48.600
But Nicole says she was probably going to call the cops.
00:30:53.060
Now, so it sounds like Nicole's pretty worried.
00:30:58.880
So now he's starting in the process of challenging his story, you know, and chinking away at the armor a bit.
00:31:06.100
And obviously this is a big-ass red flag because why is the best friend more worried than you?
00:31:10.900
And the other thing, too, you guys got to remember is that more than likely this detective did his homework.
00:31:14.400
He watched the body cam footage from the investigating officer.
00:31:17.180
The investigating officer probably told him, hey, you know, I showed up on scene, et cetera.
00:31:20.020
Because when you interview the suspect, guys, the suspect is most of the time, right, one of the last people that you talk to.
00:31:27.900
You talk to the officer that showed up on scene.
00:31:31.940
So when they brought him in, he probably at this point, if he's a good detective and did his homework, looked at the body cam and noticed his strange behavior.
00:31:38.720
So he's coming in with more facts than Watts probably knows.
00:31:42.760
Once she couldn't get anything out of her and nothing was going on in the house, I was like, all right, I gotta go home.
00:31:49.920
The sharp and sudden change of angle from baseline questioning to direct confrontation would normally make an innocent person refute or at least challenge the statement.
00:31:59.380
There would also be a brief pause as they would need time to process the allegation due to its perplexity.
00:32:05.060
A guilty individual would already be in a defensive state of mind and would normally respond in a hastily modus.
00:32:11.620
Instead of refuting the remark, they would accept it but try and explain its actuality in a defensive manner.
00:32:19.220
Yeah, because like most of it, like if she hasn't texted me, like I understand that.
00:32:24.640
But for her not to get back to her direct sales group, that was very unorthodox.
00:32:33.120
So then they're at home, police officers there, then walk me through that.
00:32:43.860
Do you have media that you go through the house?
00:32:44.940
Oh, like I open the garage door and I just go into the house.
00:32:50.240
Like I just go in the garage door and I'm looking.
00:32:52.220
There's the police on the station saying, hey, let me talk to you for a minute.
00:32:56.860
I go up there, shake his hand, but I'm like opening the garage door at the same time.
00:33:01.880
And then I go through and then they're waiting at the front door.
00:33:11.100
He watched the body cam footage, which is why he's asking these questions.
00:33:13.520
He already knows the answer, but he wants to see what he's going to say to kind of get
00:33:16.520
a gauge of how he sounds when he's telling the truth.
00:33:18.600
And he probably wants to grill him a bit on his strange behavior with a police officer
00:33:24.520
being there and your wife not being found and you going around into the garage and not
00:33:29.580
immediately telling the officer, hey, come in the house with me.
00:33:31.560
If you really were scared, if anything, you would probably say, hey, you go in first.
00:33:50.100
That's when the neighbor, the officer, I went over to the neighbor's house to see if he saw
00:34:02.040
And then that's when the neighbor called him back over to show him he had some stuff
00:34:09.980
Just show him, like, whatever he had and I put motion on it.
00:34:15.180
Police check neighbor security footage and question them as well.
00:34:24.780
No, I mean, it just shows Nicole dropping her off, but her not walking up.
00:34:33.340
Now, as you guys could tell, your boy Chris Watts is saying a bunch of BS, right?
00:34:39.560
But you guys got to remember, when you're doing a criminal investigation, right, and you're
00:34:43.900
interviewing a suspect, your goal is to get them to talk as much as possible without
00:34:47.460
saying, I want a lawyer or I don't want to talk or I'm going to invoke the Fifth Amendment
00:34:52.960
And for them to continue talking, you want to limit confrontation until you get some kind
00:35:00.640
When I used to interrogate my suspects, et cetera, you come in, you introduce yourself
00:35:08.920
You want to introduce yourself, shoot the shit about random stuff, see what they're interested
00:35:13.260
You literally have a conversation as if you guys are like friends.
00:35:17.920
You got to build rapport with the individual first.
00:35:20.980
Come in with a dark light or in a dark ass room.
00:35:23.860
They're sitting by themselves and you got the spotlight.
00:35:30.440
You don't hit the suspect with the Shoryukins, at least in the beginning.
00:35:35.740
So you got to go ahead and build rapport with the individual.
00:35:39.640
And a big part of that is you got to let them just talk.
00:35:42.760
Because when people are talking, what ends up happening is they get more comfortable talking
00:35:45.820
and they might disclose certain facts or, well, they might disclose certain things that
00:35:50.460
And that's good for you as the investigator because when you go into the interview, you
00:35:55.520
Like this detective, I can already tell he's watched the body cam footage.
00:35:57.980
He knows that Watts has been acting very strange and he's trying to figure out where his headspace
00:36:04.260
So the first interview, a lot of the times, right, or at least in the beginning, if it's
00:36:09.120
going to be a longer interview, is you're going to shut up and let the guy talk because you
00:36:12.360
don't want him to lawyer up and you don't want him to invoke his Fifth Amendment right
00:36:17.700
That way you can at least get some kind of story.
00:36:20.040
And then your job as the investigator is to punch holes in that story or confirm it's
00:36:24.520
true through the independent evidence that you gain through the investigation that either
00:36:28.580
corroborates or does not corroborate the information that the suspect gave you.
00:36:34.260
That's why he's kind of shutting up quite a bit here.
00:36:54.120
So when I work with investigations like this, I have to keep an open mind on everything.
00:37:10.400
But, you know, as the detective is talking, you can see him now.
00:37:12.500
So he's applying something in the form of a question.
00:37:26.620
So he's applying something in the form of a question.
00:37:40.640
And it kind of throws the person for a loop because they're like, oh, wait, how do I answer
00:37:45.340
And they might get tripped up when you apply something within a question.
00:37:50.780
It's like people that if people knew that we were having marrow issues, they're going to
00:37:56.340
look at me, especially with the way everything looks.
00:37:59.360
It honestly just makes me sick to my stomach because this is something that I would never
00:38:06.220
I know, like, you have to look at every vantage point.
00:38:13.340
This is something I would never do to my kids or my wife.
00:38:23.000
And notice how the detective, right, purposely is sitting there quietly and lets the awkward
00:38:32.220
OK, and what that's going to do is that's going to prompt the suspect to talk more, to
00:38:52.560
Because remember, like I told you before, the first interview or the beginning part of
00:38:55.580
the interview is always important to get a statement.
00:39:00.460
Matter of fact, that statement is how if you guys look at it, statements with contradictory
00:39:09.200
The Murdoch case that is going down in South Carolina right now that this guy just got sentenced
00:39:12.800
for a big part of the investigation is circumstantial because he lied.
00:39:20.440
And that was a big part of evidence because because his whole defense was contingent upon
00:39:27.520
But then the Snapchats revealed that he was actually there.
00:39:29.740
We might end up breaking down that case for y'all.
00:39:31.720
I'm going to go ahead and do a poll during this podcast.
00:39:35.820
So they want to go ahead and elicit as much information as possible, because even when
00:39:39.940
they lie, it's still worth something because you're able to go ahead and blow that lie through
00:39:52.280
After the suspect answers a question, the interrogator will remain silent while maintaining
00:39:57.920
This physical demeanor gives off the subtle cue that he expects more information to be divulged
00:40:02.920
and may already know more than the suspect realizes.
00:40:12.400
And he has to talk more because he's like, oh, did that not work?
00:40:16.660
To make people believe that, just because if they didn't do or have a marital discord,
00:40:42.400
I know we were having a marital discord, and we had that conversation that morning, and
00:40:47.560
then she goes, and we have no idea where she is.
00:40:51.520
I promise you, I promise you, I have nothing to do with any of that.
00:40:59.280
Hey, guys, well, this detective continues grilling this dude and making him staying silent.
00:41:25.540
Subscribe to the channel if you haven't already, because it really helps with the engagement.
00:41:30.520
You don't have to donate a dollar through Super Chat.
00:41:34.020
I genuinely do this channel because I enjoy it.
00:41:36.640
Brings back great memories of when I was on the job.
00:41:39.560
That's all I ask so that we can grow the channel and people can get more great true crime content
00:41:43.240
like this, because there ain't nobody else on YouTube that was a former special agent
00:41:47.260
actually breaking down these cases for you guys from a professional background.
00:41:50.860
You know, I'm not one of these bimbos putting makeup on my face while I talk about
00:41:55.100
I'm giving y'all real deal experience type breakdowns, man.
00:42:20.120
A truthful individual will normally respond to this question with a question, such as,
00:42:27.720
They will often protest the aggressive nature of the Inquisition.
00:42:35.420
And the people that do know me, they know how I'm a calm person.
00:42:42.300
I am a person who is never going to be abusive or physical in any kind of relationship.
00:43:06.760
I'm not about anything that elevates to that level.
00:43:13.280
I mean, if someone yells at me, screams at me, I just take it.
00:43:17.980
And I just try to get it by the wayside and get it back to where it's a cool conversation
00:43:23.880
to where, like, none of that gets to that height.
00:43:27.900
Look at how long it takes him to give a response to, are you lying?
00:43:39.060
Now, let me show you guys what it looks like when you are getting falsely accused, all right?
00:43:51.240
See, this guy ends up getting arrested, I think, for a burglary or something like that.
00:43:58.380
Break in and steal a multitude of valuable items.
00:44:01.620
The detective then explains that she picked him out of a 12-picture lineup of suspects.
00:44:10.620
Look at the difference between when someone is innocent versus when they're guilty.
00:44:17.360
which holds a possible 20-year prison sentence due to previous convictions.
00:44:21.600
He will now begin to forcefully assert his innocence.
00:44:24.260
And each time he does so, will bring forward his posture
00:44:27.040
and strengthen his vocal emphasis while making the assertion.
00:44:30.560
All right, so, I mean, she's saying that I was there before?
00:44:34.620
She's saying she's seen my face before the act, before the break-in happened?
00:45:00.460
The only Candy that I even heard of is this guy I know named Tim Stahl dates her.
00:45:06.220
The person he just mentioned was the accuser's ex-boyfriend.
00:45:14.320
The accuser's testimony was later picked apart in court.
00:45:17.480
She was caught lying on the stand multiple times, and Justin was exonerated.
00:45:35.900
But this is an example, guys, of someone that is innocent.
00:45:38.100
As you guys can see, he's actually challenging the detectives back.
00:45:45.760
An innocent, not just beyond all reasonable doubt, but essentially beyond all doubt.
00:45:50.340
The last thing I heard about them two, she had them arrested for domestic violence.
00:45:59.620
I ain't never went in that girl's house, none of that shit.
00:46:09.320
The police probably went ahead and looked at her criminal history and saw, oh, damn,
00:46:14.340
So little things like that add credibility to what the individual is saying.
00:46:19.440
When I got out of the fucking attention, I told myself I wasn't going back.
00:46:25.600
Can you prove, other than you saying you're not, is it, that morning, what can you tell,
00:46:36.340
So you're telling me you didn't step foot out of the house?
00:46:43.360
The detective then goes on to reveal Justin is accused of assaulting the supposed victim
00:46:52.520
Here, and you hit her over the head with it, and you guys fight.
00:47:01.900
Tim's going to be questioning him about her goddamn injuries.
00:47:07.360
So as you guys can see from his body language, right, not only does he refute the accusation
00:47:12.460
directly, but he goes ahead and names the potential possible suspect instead, okay?
00:47:18.060
Now I know some of y'all might be saying, oh, that's blah, blah, blah.
00:47:20.200
Hey, man, look, you're getting accused of a serious felony, and this guy had just gotten
00:47:24.320
out of prison too, trying to get his life straight, et cetera.
00:47:26.920
You're going to go ahead and be like, that ain't me right there.
00:47:30.600
So this all adds more credibility, and the fact that he's directly challenging the detective's
00:47:36.040
evidence and or testimony, whatever, right, shows he's innocent versus you guys have seen
00:47:41.020
us do breakdowns on other interrogations where when the detective accuses them, right, they
00:47:48.660
Oh, no, I didn't do it, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:47:53.600
I think her boyfriend, Tim Stahl, done fucking done something to her, and now they're trying
00:47:59.300
That's exactly- I know that's what the fuck this is.
00:48:05.540
And look, that's why we're talking to you, okay?
00:48:07.620
No, this is bullshit, man, because I'm trying everything in my fucking power to stay the
00:48:10.740
fuck out of this goddamn fucking penitentiary shit.
00:48:24.980
I'm sorry to freak you out, man, but I didn't fucking do this shit, man.
00:48:31.320
Justin had already served three years in prison for a robbery in his early 20s.
00:48:36.240
He more than likely knew the reassuring tone of the investigator wasn't a good sign.
00:48:40.900
Although slightly more animated than the average person, this form of aggression is a commonplace
00:48:45.860
response from the innocent being directly accused.
00:48:48.600
He comes off aggressive, but in a defensive manner.
00:48:51.640
He is not being hostile, but highly combative when professing his innocence.
00:48:55.760
His conduct is totally justified considering the circumstance.
00:48:59.360
When facing a considerable amount of time in prison for something you didn't do, this
00:49:05.160
So when compared to the forgiving composure of Michael...
00:49:08.720
So that's an example of confronting the evidence head on when you know you're innocent, right?
00:49:13.040
And you guys notice here, your boy Chris Watts ain't doing none of that.
00:49:17.600
He's been going for a minute long plus talking about it wasn't him.
00:49:34.480
See the difference between the two individuals?
00:51:13.380
It sounded about in the back of it so I could...
00:51:20.880
I'm done a lot of those spaghetti strap dresses.
00:51:42.480
But before we do part two, where it takes the polygraph,
00:51:46.720
we're going ahead and hit some of these chats real fast.
00:51:59.140
Goes, I sound like the most interesting guy at work
00:52:01.600
Monday morning after watching an episode of Fed It.
00:52:06.640
Goes, Myron, have you ever shot anyone when you were an agent?
00:52:10.960
RealTalk621 goes, bro, do you think Tate, of all people,
00:52:13.360
would continue to smoke if he had a clue he might have lung cancer?
00:52:15.900
He's all about his health and working out, bro.
00:52:25.600
J. World goes, man's got that school principal edge up.
00:52:32.020
I think John Doe, Chris has updated status to widow children.
00:52:42.740
I drilled those wells that those tanks were used for.
00:52:48.880
Colorado Roughneck, you work at the place where he dumped the bodies.
00:53:07.980
This was like a few miles from where they lived.
00:53:12.780
So this is where our boy Colorado Roughneck is at, pretty much.
00:53:43.340
Myron, will you do one about the Pain and Gain crew as well as the Bling Ring crew?
00:53:51.700
Angie Amara, Canada's biggest serial killer, fed 49 prosecutors to his hogs on his pig farm?
00:54:02.040
Robert Pickton, I guess the biggest Canadian serial killer.
00:54:12.620
So he's the Zodiac Killer of Canada, pretty much.
00:54:15.480
Because I would say the top serial killer in the United States by far, that everyone
00:54:18.880
is most famous, is between the Zodiac Killer and Ted Bundy.
00:54:31.620
So, and then, so far, your book is a good read.
00:54:38.300
Guys, do me a quick favor, because the Matrix is definitely trying to attack the book.
00:54:48.800
Haven't enjoyed myself so much since we caught that Ted Bundy guy.
00:55:07.740
They make government accounts like the IRS comments in when the girls talk about how
00:55:13.740
The IRS is like, hey, you bitches better pay me my half.
00:55:23.420
El Magico goes, yo, Myron, keep dropping all the fire content for us.
00:55:26.360
Your book, Why Women Deserve Less, is a must-read for every man.
00:55:43.880
We're going to go ahead and go into the second part of the Chris Watts case.
00:55:54.720
And then we got 941 likes, and we got 1,800 plus y'all in here.
00:56:07.260
And, yeah, without further ado, you have anything, Angie, before we get into the second part?
00:56:36.960
This is what is known as a behavior-provoking question.
00:56:42.180
An innocent person will usually give what is known as a draconian response.
00:56:46.300
They will immediately respond with the harshest sentence possible for the crime they are falsely
00:56:51.900
A deceptive individual will often give an equivocating response.
00:56:56.040
This means that they will fragmentize and divert from the question to a certain degree
00:57:00.280
as a means to avoid responding to the query in its entirety.
00:57:08.020
When we find the guy, they're going to come home.
00:57:15.680
That's what I would think with two kids that are involved.
00:57:23.220
So rising annotation at the end of the statement, seeking approval.
00:57:25.780
This happens a lot of the times with liars, right?
00:57:28.040
So whenever you're telling a lie, you'll phrase something in a way where you're seeking
00:57:34.920
the individual that's questioning you's approval.
00:57:36.720
This is like when you lie to your parents, right?
00:57:38.240
Like your mom will say, did you eat the cookies?
00:57:51.100
But when you raise your voice in a certain way, you're saying it in a more passive manner
00:57:56.020
and you're seeking the approval of the accuser.
00:57:58.500
That's what he's doing in this interrogation, which is a big red flag for someone that is
00:58:04.460
See, if you also compare these interrogations with the one that you just put here, for
00:58:14.980
Yeah, that's like how people from like St. Louis talk like Nelly.
00:58:18.180
I like the way she do it right there that like, I don't know if you ever heard that
00:58:21.340
song, but no, you know, somebody, you know, if you guys know what I'm talking about in
00:58:37.900
But so if you compare this case and also the all the cases that we've done so far, Casey
00:58:43.600
Anthony, Corny Cleaney, Dalia DiPolito, even the Daniel Prince one, they are all like
00:58:52.240
So they will have like this type of behavior as well.
00:58:56.600
Opposite to the guy that you split as an example.
00:58:59.280
Which is cool, though, because he's like Casey Anthony as a man.
00:59:16.140
I'm not sure if like that penalty is even used as a youth in Colorado.
00:59:24.400
I mean, like if these kids are not alive, like there's no, there's nothing you can do to
00:59:35.400
If these kids aren't alive, wouldn't a normal person say if my children aren't alive, like
00:59:41.200
see, see how he's already distancing himself from the crime with his words?
00:59:46.580
Because in his head, he's like, okay, I want to distance myself from this action.
00:59:49.920
So he's already exemplifying that through the way he conveys himself and speaks to this
01:00:02.220
Guys, these are his biological children, by the way.
01:00:12.720
Some things that are going to make you uncomfortable?
01:00:22.300
Very good at talking to me about this really hard conversation you guys had.
01:00:30.040
And I understand why sometimes someone in your position says, doesn't want to tell me
01:00:38.980
And you don't need to know about my marriage argument.
01:00:42.420
So I got to say, you've done very good at that.
01:00:46.720
So I need to ask you about your marriage and infidelity.
01:00:56.920
If she catch me cheating, I'll never tell her sorry.
01:01:04.360
And I fully suspect she has never done that to me.
01:01:08.880
The interrogator was already aware that Chris was cheating on his wife with a woman by the
01:01:15.340
He had handed over his phone earlier on this interview for what he thought was for the
01:01:21.640
purpose of going through his and his wife's mutual contacts to look for potential suspects.
01:01:26.380
Judging by Chris's bold-faced denial, it's safe to assume he deleted all of his correspondence
01:01:33.380
Yet he was most likely unaware that the FBI have programs that can recover every single
01:01:38.720
piece of digital exchange sent from a device, even long after it's deleted.
01:01:48.980
I have a trained investigator over here, Brian.
01:01:53.820
And I can tell you guys this from my personal professional experience.
01:01:56.740
When I was an agent, if I got, right, when you get a phone from an individual, there's
01:02:01.380
A, they give you consent, or B, you get a search warrant.
01:02:04.140
And when you go through the phone, you have a certified forensic agent, right, or a CFA
01:02:10.260
They can 100% extract all the deleted files from the phone and extract deleted text messages,
01:02:18.960
Because there's a bunch of metadata that's left from when a phone is...
01:02:25.700
So nothing is really safe like that when investigators get a hold of your phone.
01:02:29.580
So him deleting those text messages, quite frankly...
01:02:36.200
But this is another example of a criminal thinking that they're smarter than they really
01:02:43.600
It could be anywhere else in the world right now.
01:02:50.360
Let's get to 1,900 likes so that we can get the engagement almost to 100%.
01:03:23.840
And then also, I don't know if you guys caught it, but that was a very loaded question.
01:03:28.940
He said, what's gonna help me make you not be the guy that looks bad walking out of this
01:03:34.900
Basically, what he wants him to do is say, all right, give me your story on why you're
01:03:46.620
The detective wants to pin him down on some kind of story so he could come back and challenge
01:03:53.300
With this act of, like, evil cruelty, whatever has happened here.
01:03:59.660
Because my love for these two girls and my wife, like, I don't want anything to happen
01:04:08.580
No matter if me and my wife separate or not, or divorce or anything, I never wish harm
01:04:17.860
Like, just seeing that picture, like, I need them, I want them just to run through that
01:04:23.860
front door and just grab me, or just bear or just tackle me, knock me to the floor, bust
01:04:30.800
The amount of love I have for my family is exponential, and it's never going to die.
01:04:55.860
When you walk out of this room, there's nothing I can say to a room full of police officers
01:05:01.340
that's going to convince them that you have nothing to do with this.
01:05:11.900
Who woke his wife up at a ridiculous hour, because he was so guilty about something that
01:05:18.620
he had to get it off his chest and say, I don't love you anymore, I'm leaving.
01:05:29.640
She told me she wanted to wake her up before I left.
01:05:33.200
That's why I didn't just wake her up, like, just to tell her this.
01:05:41.200
Usually, at 4 a.m., I wake up, I go down and work out to say, I wanted to talk to her about this.
01:06:03.740
Again, upping the pressure, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
01:06:06.800
And you can see it in Chris Watt's hands here, how he's kind of holding himself here.
01:06:10.320
This is something that someone does when they're typically agitated, right, or very uncomfortable,
01:06:13.960
which, remember, the detective, he's playing a game here.
01:06:20.420
He's standing in, he's sitting in between Watt's and the door.
01:06:27.220
Feel as though he's need to talk more and further dig himself in the hole.
01:06:38.920
And this picture right here, Celeste and Bella, those are my life.
01:06:51.160
Nothing in my life that means more to me than these kids.
01:06:57.240
Wouldn't you say my kids, if they were your children?
01:07:11.800
Like, you make kids, they come first before anything.
01:07:29.900
Nothing you've told me tonight feels like the truth.
01:07:46.600
I slept like two hours last night, so I'm running on empty right now.
01:07:56.960
I'm sure you don't mind if we take a break for tonight.
01:07:59.920
I'm sure that you are feeling some of the pressure from me.
01:08:06.980
I'm going to commit to you that we're not going to stop working until we find them.
01:08:12.200
And I want to commit to you that there is going to come a time when you're going to-
01:08:20.160
So he's easing off the pressure because he said, we're going to find him, right?
01:08:23.860
And this is obviously purposeful on the detective to create a little bit of comfort for him, right?
01:08:30.100
So that he comes back tomorrow for the polygraph test.
01:08:33.080
At this point, he's like, all right, I've pushed this guy to the edge now.
01:08:35.840
We need him to come back because we know he's a suspect.
01:08:41.580
He's going to already be uncomfortable because he already accused him during this interrogation.
01:08:44.720
But now he's got to let him go softly so he returns the following day.
01:08:49.660
So he's like, okay, we're going to find him, assuming that there's another killer,
01:08:52.080
even though the detective knows that he is the killer.
01:08:55.900
Nice little subtle new, you know, thing to add into the interview there.
01:09:03.200
I'm not the only one who thinks that there's a possibility you have something to do with this.
01:09:06.960
It's like another FBI agent, like pressure, like this, like everyone.
01:09:13.060
The interrogator is clearly receptive to Chris's anxiety and endeavors to amplify this emotion
01:09:19.980
He wants to inflate Chris's apprehension as much as possible for the looming polygraph test
01:09:26.860
Tonight, when you go home, one or two things are going to happen.
01:09:32.220
You're going to pass out because you're so tired.
01:09:39.820
So tonight, when you lay down and your head starts racing, there's going to be things
01:09:48.500
You're going to say, I don't know why he asked me that.
01:09:57.100
Which is what he should have done during this interview, but he didn't.
01:09:59.700
You're going to say, I probably should have told him something or this or that.
01:10:10.100
When those thoughts come to your head, I want you to call me.
01:10:22.220
And he's saying that to get him to come back the next day.
01:10:24.640
And here's the other reason, too, guys, why he's letting him go.
01:10:26.520
So, your sleep, right, the sleep from the night prior heavily affects your polygraph results.
01:10:34.620
If you don't sleep, you're more than likely going to give a deceptive response or you're going to fail the polygraph.
01:10:45.220
That's another reason why he wants him to leave now because he wants to be able to say, oh, no, I let him out at this time.
01:10:50.720
He had ample time to come in and do the polygraph the next day and get adequate sleep.
01:10:53.980
So, that's another strategy from the detective as well that they're not mentioning here.
01:11:04.820
The following discourse from the officer could be construed as the reframing technique where an interrogator will try and shift the suspect's view of themselves from negative to positive as a means to lightening the iniquity of their crimes and increasing the chances of a confession.
01:11:19.820
However, this is more likely what is known as passive accusation, where the interrogator is almost certain of the suspect's guilt and indirectly accuses and, in some manner, indignifies the suspect.
01:11:31.480
This is made evident by the high praises the officer gives to Chris for extremely trivial deeds.
01:11:36.880
A lot of dads don't get second pairs of clothes and cook eggs and give them snacks at night.
01:11:44.920
You know, a lot of men, that's women for it, right?
01:11:58.940
So, can we say that tomorrow at 11 o'clock, we can do a polygraph?
01:12:19.660
I'll explain what that is here in a little bit, but you don't have to worry.
01:12:27.780
Okay, so this right here, guys, is the polygrapher, this woman.
01:12:31.540
And also, keep in mind, guys, that polygraphs, right, just to give you a quick little background
01:12:36.040
on what they are, all commonly known as the lie detector test.
01:12:38.620
What it does is it tests your bodily functions, okay?
01:12:41.460
It doesn't necessarily tell if you're lying or not.
01:12:43.420
It just tells your response, right, from a bodily standpoint to questions that are asked
01:12:52.640
Questions that you already know the answer to that are simple that you're not gonna lie about,
01:12:56.620
Once they get the baseline, then they start asking you the crazy questions that might
01:13:02.340
This could be sweat, heart rate, what's it called, your leg shaking, a bunch of different
01:13:11.180
responses that the body gives when answering questions, right?
01:13:14.580
That's why they have a bunch of things strapped up to you.
01:13:18.920
Every polygrapher is different in how they interpret the data.
01:13:20.900
And every polygraph test uses different measurements to read your bodily functions.
01:13:25.780
But the point is, is to try to detect deception.
01:13:31.300
And then, when the body responds a certain way, what they'll do is they'll hone in on
01:13:34.300
that question that's giving a certain response to try to dig into the truth.
01:13:37.720
But polygraphs themselves are not admissible in court because, I mean, let's be honest here.
01:13:42.020
There's a bunch of people that beat polygraphs that are sociopaths.
01:13:44.540
For example, the Green River Killer, the last episode I did for y'all, who killed 49 women,
01:13:51.680
There's a lot of people that could pass polygraph tests when they're lying.
01:13:59.320
Also, before we get into this, guys, do me a favor.
01:14:04.120
You could be anywhere else in the world, but you're here with us.
01:14:09.940
Again, I do this channel because I do enjoy it.
01:14:11.980
We're at 1.1K likes, but there's over 2,000 y'all watching right now.
01:14:15.620
So, give me the 2K likes so we can go ahead and get this up in the algo.
01:14:20.540
I would think something is wrong with you if you weren't nervous about coming in here to take a polygraph.
01:14:24.960
Even if people are like, I don't have anything to hide, it is nerve-wracking.
01:14:28.480
But I have taken tons of polygraphs, obviously, in my training.
01:14:39.400
So, I want you to have confidence in the fact that you had nothing to do with this disappearance.
01:14:46.020
I have the best training that they offer in the United States.
01:14:52.900
That's the way I'm going to ask you the questions.
01:14:55.080
So, believe me, if you had nothing to do with this, I will be able to show them that today.
01:15:02.100
Also, keep in mind, guys, that a lot of innocent people fail polygraphs as well because a lot of people get nervous.
01:15:08.340
It's just a tool to try to figure out the truth.
01:15:10.380
But in general, polygraphs, I ain't going to lie to you, a lot of people say that they're BS.
01:15:18.260
Pseudoscience is a tool that will get you somewhere, but they're not always, you know, foolproof.
01:15:25.700
It's not a routine procedure during the pre-test phase of a polygraph exam.
01:15:29.900
Yet, this technique will be used when the suspect's guilt is almost conclusive.
01:15:34.040
Polygraphs are not a foolproof system, and they can be beaten.
01:15:37.000
But with a heightened state of anxiety, it becomes considerably more challenging and unlikely.
01:15:41.480
On this occasion, the polygrapher distinctly applies this technique for maximal effect.
01:15:46.600
There's actually only two ways you can fail a polygraph, okay?
01:15:49.340
The first way would be if you fail to follow my instructions.
01:15:52.120
I'm going to give you a lot of instructions today about how to sit still, how to answer questions, things like that.
01:15:56.480
If you fail to follow those instructions, you will not pass today's test, okay?
01:16:00.400
The second way would be if you choose to lie to me today.
01:16:03.100
You know, if you did have something to do with their disappearance, it would be really stupid for you to come in and take a polygraph today.
01:16:12.740
Like, you should not be here right now sitting in this chair if you had anything to do with...
01:16:27.920
Well, yeah, we just started things first from there.
01:16:30.560
Like, in 2011, I proposed to her over at Ocean Isle Beach.
01:16:34.760
And she was just sitting there crying with a little fixing notice.
01:16:51.420
So, like, they actually had me, like, are you going to stand here and, like, you know, catch her?
01:16:56.080
And, like, book, but fluff came out, like, so fast that, like, I barely had a chance to go like this.
01:17:03.540
The polygrapher will also obtain the examinee's version of the facts regarding the specific issues under investigation.
01:17:10.080
Like, I was just hoping that I would get that knock on the door or a phone call or a text.
01:17:17.360
Like, hopefully, maybe it's a number I don't know.
01:17:20.080
Hopefully, it's, like, you know, like, a burner phone or some kind of, like, phone she bought.
01:17:26.700
So, you could just text me and call me, like, hey, I'm okay.
01:17:33.500
I miss, like, the kids, like, sitting at the dinner table and, like, having to tell them to eat their dinner.
01:17:38.720
And, like, I miss them throwing their chicken nuggets at me.
01:17:53.920
It makes me feel like, all right, maybe somebody has her that's not...
01:18:11.740
Casey Anthony kind of almost believed her lies.
01:18:15.240
Yeah, she believed her lies because she was a psycho.
01:18:28.840
Chris recounts a brief summary of the events and states multiple vague possibilities for his family's disappearance.
01:18:35.100
The polygrapher then starts to elect specific timelines for Chris to give his account on.
01:18:40.440
You said the next thing you know, it's her getting into bed with you.
01:18:46.700
We didn't say anything because I just kind of felt it.
01:18:50.100
Do you know if she was on her phone or like how any of that works?
01:18:57.500
I mean, being crying, crying like she was, crying like I was.
01:19:05.040
But, I mean, it comes with that kind of conversation.
01:19:08.640
In the next moments, you will see another subterfuge of psychological pressure,
01:19:12.880
this time disguised as routine questioning procedure.
01:19:15.760
I know it's totally awful to think about, but what are ways,
01:19:20.320
because I need to make sure that you know what I'm talking about,
01:19:23.720
what are ways that you can make someone disappear?
01:19:25.920
I mean, like, as you talk about, like, what I've seen, like, on the movies,
01:19:37.760
or, like, how people, if you read about other people, I mean, hire somebody.
01:19:45.860
Yeah, I mean, that's, I mean, I'm just being honest.
01:19:49.320
That's what I want, because I want you to go through all of these scenarios
01:19:51.620
in your head, because I want you to know for sure what I'm talking about
01:19:55.180
when I say that, you know, asking you if you physically caused her disappearance.
01:19:59.520
Translation, I want to see how you potentially killed your family.
01:20:02.260
Like, you'd hire somebody, or you have somebody you know that would do it.
01:20:10.060
I mean, it's like, I don't, I mean, it's a hard question to answer.
01:20:16.400
Because I didn't, it had nothing to do with this disappearance.
01:20:20.220
So, like, I don't even want to think about, like,
01:20:27.860
Like, how would anyone cause someone else's disappearance?
01:20:35.120
You could cause someone's disappearance by murdering them.
01:20:39.380
So, what different physical ways could you cause someone's disappearance through murder?
01:20:44.720
You could stab someone, shoot someone, hit them with a blunt object.
01:20:50.880
Okay, cautious not to mention actual causes of death.
01:20:56.240
Strangulation for his wife and smothering of his daughters.
01:20:59.920
He doesn't mention that, of course, for obvious reasons.
01:21:05.300
Also, there, I mean, use a weapon, like, gun or a knife.
01:21:33.180
I mean, it's hard to even think about that kind of stuff right now.
01:21:38.240
Yeah, it's hard when she mentions the ways that you actually killed your family to think about it.
01:21:57.760
As far as, like, lure them into a trap, I guess.
01:22:05.320
Like, you know, like, have somebody waiting, like, around the corner and, like, drive.
01:22:16.000
Hit by a car, kidnapped, locked in a room, poisoned, beaten into a coma.
01:22:27.020
So if I ask you that question on the test, Chris, are you going to have any issue with that?
01:22:34.960
Yeah, like, that would be a way you could cause someone's disappearance.
01:22:37.620
Okay, I'm not, I can definitely, like, I can pass, I mean, I think...
01:22:40.860
You could murder them, you could kidnap them, you could take them to another country, you could, you know, bury them in your backyard.
01:22:45.860
You could do a million things as far as trying to conceal them.
01:22:58.120
Take into consideration that she doesn't know at this point, like, of the interview, she doesn't know what he did to his family.
01:23:07.600
And you guys can know, you guys notice the contrast between her and the male detective that interviewed him the day before.
01:23:14.880
She's giving him a significant amount of space.
01:23:17.900
Also, notice how she's not sitting in between him and the door.
01:23:24.160
He's closer to the door, which is over this way.
01:23:26.560
So, because obviously, a polygraph in itself is a very stressful situation.
01:23:30.860
So, she's trying to make him somewhat as calm as possible and be a little bit nicer so that she can get more information out of him.
01:23:39.180
I'm not asking you about, did you make her feel so horrible that she ended up leaving?
01:23:43.200
I'm saying that you were the one that physically caused her to disappear.
01:23:48.200
Either by murder, kidnapping, you know, all those other things that we went through.
01:23:57.500
When I ask you if you physically caused Shanann's disappearance.
01:24:05.400
Have any questions about what I would mean when I was...
01:24:15.080
Like trying to figure out like how do you have those?
01:24:26.580
You're going to be taking what's called a directed lie polygraph.
01:24:29.760
So, what that means is there are going to be questions on the test where I want you to lie.
01:24:33.860
I know it seems kind of weird, but you're going to know which questions these are and they're going to be easy to answer.
01:24:40.580
The directed lie test has three types of questions.
01:24:45.260
These are easy questions to answer, such as are you sitting down or are you wearing shoes?
01:25:00.500
Bro, you got to understand that the world doesn't revolve around you, my friend.
01:25:05.880
We typically go off of what most people ask for.
01:25:08.200
And this was definitely at the top of the list.
01:25:12.800
But you got to understand and be patient that a lot of people are requesting other stuff.
01:25:28.640
The first purpose is to provide a baseline reading for when the subject is telling the truth
01:25:34.540
and should elicit very little bodily responses.
01:25:37.140
The second purpose is to disconnect the examinee's thought patterns between each question as a means
01:25:42.480
for resetting their cerebration for a more accurate reading.
01:25:46.920
These are what the polygrapher just explained to Chris.
01:25:49.700
Whenever she says, before 2018, at the start of a question, Chris will know he is purposely
01:25:56.340
Each of these questions are deliberately constructed that all answers will be responded with no.
01:26:02.880
These relate specifically to the crime being investigated and the examinee will know that
01:26:09.500
A guilty subject will show a much stronger reaction to the relevant questions than to the
01:26:14.060
control questions, even though they will be lying on both of them.
01:26:17.080
This is due to the immediate threat posed by the relevant questions.
01:26:20.620
So I'm going to say before 2018, did you ever lose your temper with someone you cared about?
01:26:38.100
All right, so they're doing the fake test here to make sure he understands the rules?
01:27:00.900
This is the last time the polygrapher will have any correspondence with Chris before the
01:27:06.780
She gives him an initial compliment in a reassuring tone.
01:27:15.020
This momentary boost in his confidence is then abruptly ripped away as he receives the following
01:27:26.900
Like, the second you tell him a lie, like, they can tell...
01:27:29.780
Someone told him, finally, that he's a terrible liar.
01:27:35.980
Because the second you lied to the number three, like, I don't know if you heard me clicking,
01:27:39.180
but, like, turn down the sensitivity because you're starting to go off the page.
01:27:42.480
So, that is what I need to see as a polygrapher because that tells me that you know what's
01:27:49.320
And you're actually having a significant reaction when you lie.
01:28:01.660
And that just shows me that, you know, obviously on the test when they're asking, you know, significant
01:28:05.540
stuff about your wife, if you're lying to that, it's going to be even 10 times more
01:28:12.520
I appreciate that very much, more than you know.
01:28:18.060
And the coolest thing about this is right now, there's only one person in this room that
01:28:23.180
And in about five minutes, there's going to be two of us.
01:28:31.420
But, again, she's, you know, she's almost infantilizing him a bit.
01:28:39.180
And the reason why, guys, is so that he feels more comfortable.
01:28:41.100
If you guys notice, she's coming in with more of like a motherly slash teacher slash happy
01:28:46.480
aunt type vibe to make him more comfortable when she's asking these probing questions.
01:28:51.400
Which is a big 180 from the detective that was grilling him the night before.
01:29:08.660
Do you understand I will only ask you the questions we have discussed?
01:29:14.440
Regarding Shanann's disappearance, do you intend to answer all of the questions truthfully?
01:29:20.500
Before we get into this polygraph part, I'm going to just play it uninterrupted.
01:29:24.800
But before I do that, I need y'all to like the video.
01:29:42.460
I hate asking for this, but the only reason I have to is because you guys don't like the
01:29:49.580
And it'll help us where I don't have to keep stopping the show.
01:30:02.860
Before 2018, did you ever lose your temper with someone you cared about?
01:30:08.600
Did you physically cause Shanann's disappearance?
01:30:17.600
Before 2018, did you ever say anything out of anger to a loved one?
01:30:25.120
Are you lying about the last time you saw Shanann?
01:30:36.280
Before 2018, have you ever wanted to hurt someone to get even with them?
01:30:51.680
Please remain still while I take the instrument out of operation.
01:31:33.780
Now you're getting grilled by the police about it, and then you just did a polygraph test
01:31:38.860
You know you're more than likely on camera, and you start watching a video of your family
01:31:51.420
I think he sees that his world is closing in on him.
01:32:15.760
Let's see what happened with this polygraph test.
01:32:33.840
We want to talk to you about the results, okay?
01:32:36.460
So, um, it was completely clear that you were not honest during the testing, but I think you
01:32:56.940
So now we need to talk about what actually happened.
01:33:03.640
I didn't, I didn't lie to you on that polygraph.
01:33:26.800
But before I do, uh, I hit some of these chats real fast, guys.
01:33:35.660
Like the video guys, since you guys think it's great content.
01:33:37.880
Uh, ain't nobody giving you all breakdowns like this from a former investigator standpoint.
01:33:42.500
Can you share the list of names you have written down already?
01:33:54.080
You want me to, I'll read the chats and when she's getting her notes right now, cause she
01:34:00.940
Uh, this is Chris Watts, the black mafia family.
01:34:07.300
We found a documentary that we're going to use for y'all.
01:34:11.300
Well, I know what the documentary is, but we're trying to find it in high quality for
01:34:28.420
No, but a bunch of people have been asking for, for the case.
01:34:32.520
So in the chat, let us know what you guys want in particular with Tory Lanez.
01:34:45.160
This is, uh, Todd Cothelp, the Amazon Review Killer.
01:34:57.020
Todd, if you know it, just track the name here.
01:35:09.040
So that's your top 10 right there for you guys.
01:35:16.380
That's the top 10 that you guys have been requesting.
01:35:24.100
I mean, I don't have it as a prior, like top, you know?
01:35:28.080
But these are the ones that you get the most of?
01:35:35.480
Uh, the one that you mentioned earlier, that's also highly requested.
01:35:43.960
We might do that one because that one's trending right now.
01:36:08.400
Uh, Albo Ace goes, we need one of those polygraphs for the 304s on a night show.
01:36:15.500
Hearing, uh, hearing him try to explain himself is so cringe.
01:36:22.300
And I think that was a follow up from his other question.
01:36:26.320
If Cheyenne and the kids are radio stars and Chris Watts is a video.
01:36:32.820
The tanks are three M three me N of Rogan one hour Northwest of Denver.
01:36:44.560
Can you guys check out the documentary called the Liberty seven a Miami case where they tried
01:36:49.200
I think it would be a good documentary to review while you're researching another case.
01:37:02.480
Uh, I don't know if they can recover full on FaceTime calls cause it doesn't record, but
01:37:12.520
Yo, I would see you do an interview with Michael Francis, former mafia member.
01:37:18.500
Uh, Kevin, you Baldo goes, Hey, Maren, you should do the Roman Sosa case, which he faked
01:37:23.000
his death to catch his wife, hiring a hit man to murder him in 2015.
01:37:28.500
Uh, we did say you guys need to see the Dahlia Deppolito video.
01:37:30.940
If you guys want to talk about hit men, that was hilarious.
01:37:33.460
Yo, Maren, keep dropping all the fire content for us.
01:37:35.120
Your book, why women deserve less is a must read for every man.
01:37:38.260
And then, uh, West Bo goes, uh, JCS isn't making content now.
01:37:50.240
Set of the three of fours to the polygraph for when they say their breakup was mutual.
01:37:55.600
When a girl says it was mutual, it means that the dude broke up with her nine out of 10
01:37:58.880
times, because girls love to say that they're the ones that break up, especially
01:38:14.000
We're about to get into the third part of this broadcast, guys, with Chris Watts.
01:38:21.720
So, uh, BMF with Big Meat should be a dope episode.
01:38:26.980
We actually know exactly what we're going to cover.
01:38:30.800
It's just that we are trying to get that documentary and high quality for y'all, uh, because the
01:38:35.920
documentary we're going to use a little bit older, but it's very good.
01:38:41.380
So, wife, uh, the wife's best friend calls Chris, aka Chris Watts, says, hey, I haven't
01:38:54.200
She noticed that the car is there, but she hasn't heard from her.
01:38:57.760
He tells her, no, don't call the police, et cetera.
01:39:02.820
Chris Watts shows up, displays strange behavior, as you guys saw in the body cam from before,
01:39:07.280
texting on his phone, not making direct eye contact, surveillance footage.
01:39:14.420
So, the police bring him in for questioning, gives a bunch of more, uh, odd answers.
01:39:18.060
Then, uh, for one day of interviewing contradictory stories, et cetera, it doesn't make sense.
01:39:21.960
Then, the second day, he goes ahead, does a polygraph, fails a polygraph, and that's where
01:39:26.620
Now, the police officers, the female detective who did the polygraph, and the male detective
01:39:30.340
that grilled him the first night, now they're going to go ahead and start confronting
01:39:36.980
Dude, James Holmes, the movie teacher shooter, uh, Colorado.
01:39:51.520
There's no reason why we shouldn't be at 2,000 likes at this point.
01:39:56.300
Uh, let's go ahead and go into part three of this broadcast.
01:39:59.140
Angie, you got anything for the people before we go?
01:40:00.320
I actually, um, I've, they haven't mentioned any of the background of the story of the family
01:40:05.260
and the mistress and the wife and anything, and I think it's important, but I can, like,
01:40:15.380
I didn't lie to you on that polygraph, I promise.
01:40:36.700
There's a reason you feel sick to your stomach, but when people hold stuff inside, it makes
01:40:48.700
you physically ill, and I can just tell on your face, I can tell you, tell from the second
01:40:53.580
you walked in that you were wanting to just come clean and just be done with this.
01:40:58.920
This is a technique known as social exchange, an interpersonal persuasion strategy in which
01:41:04.260
the interrogator provides the suspect with a psychological reward in return for the information
01:41:10.060
In this case, she's trying to convince Chris that the alleviation of mental weight is a
01:41:16.540
She does this in a manner that protects his self-esteem by giving him appreciative reinforcements.
01:41:21.600
And I appreciate that because you knew sitting down in that chair that you weren't going to
01:41:25.700
pass today, and you knew I was going to find out because I told you that, and then you continued
01:41:30.840
to say, knowing that you could, at the end, say, you know what?
01:41:38.260
Everything that I've told you, I did not lie on this polygraph.
01:41:42.180
I am, I don't know how much I could tell you right now.
01:41:50.420
You did not pass the polygraph, so I know you were being deceptive.
01:41:55.720
The issue right now is what happened to Shanann, Bella, and Celeste.
01:42:01.280
The following tactic is called the futility technique, a building block to induce a sense
01:42:06.300
in a suspect that any resistance on behalf of their cause is futile due to the overwhelming
01:42:12.660
This was obviously not the case, as polygraphs are not admissible evidence, and Chris was in
01:42:21.260
And just so you guys know, with the futility technique, I used to employ this a lot when
01:42:27.980
I would literally go in there sometimes and be like, listen, just like this.
01:42:44.380
But other than that, I really don't need your interview right now to indict you.
01:42:51.740
You know, put them in the jail, come back maybe a day or two later, right?
01:42:58.080
And sometimes when you put people in jail, they spend a night or two in there, the county
01:43:04.360
And sometimes letting them know that you got them dead to rights works quite a bit, especially
01:43:11.560
But this is the importance of doing your own independent investigation where you're not
01:43:15.600
Because when you rely on a confession, oh, man, there's so many issues that could arise.
01:43:19.840
So that's what I would do when I would use the futility technique personally.
01:43:28.260
This is no longer an interview to collect information.
01:43:53.960
The steps of asking questions and receiving answers is over, and the interrogators are
01:43:58.500
now in the process of leading the suspect into a state of mental exhaustion.
01:44:02.520
The detectives will attentively watch for denials and stop them before they can be voiced.
01:44:07.100
Letting the suspect deny his guilt will only increase his confidence and prolong his cerebral
01:44:18.920
Whenever people are lying like that, that's when I would give them the futility technique
01:44:22.300
that I said, yo, listen, I already got you dead to rights, dude.
01:44:29.080
And then I'll just end it there and just throw his ass in jail.
01:44:31.100
Come back a day or two later after they spend some time behind bars, because that always
01:44:36.580
But in this case, they're going to keep trying to push for the confession.
01:44:39.740
But the more they deny, you don't want them to get that confidence where they're like,
01:44:44.540
oh, no, because a lot of these crooks, you know, they'll believe their own lie.
01:44:47.360
And they'll sit there in delusion, and you don't want to deal with that crap.
01:44:50.960
Initially, you're going to go, I don't know what you're talking about.
01:44:57.020
That's a natural reaction that someone's going to initially lie about something like that
01:45:02.580
So this is your eventually telling the truth time.
01:45:05.380
This is where the rubber meets the road, Chris.
01:45:11.120
Like, don't let this continue any longer, please.
01:45:34.300
I told you that we've done some work overnight.
01:45:44.360
The dossier technique is a variant of the futility technique.
01:45:47.860
The only difference being that the detectives are far more cryptic and often deceptive about
01:45:54.000
This will hint at things in a vague manner for the purpose of escalating a suspect's uncertainty.
01:46:12.320
If I could have my babies back home right now, I would.
01:46:21.020
Although the detectives want to intensify Chris's psychological stress levels, they do not want
01:46:26.140
him to become reactively agitated, as this could lead him to objecting and resisting every
01:46:31.180
And the interrogation will never get off the ground.
01:46:33.480
It also significantly increases the chances of him requesting legal counsel and ending
01:46:39.200
This elicits the interrogator to change approach and utilize what is known as the ego up technique,
01:46:45.400
where the detective will build on the self-respect of the suspect through positive reinforcement.
01:46:49.840
It is very surprising to me, and it warms my heart that you're the type of dad who can pack
01:46:58.820
You guys are roasting this detective, this female detective, and she's in the back fucking
01:47:22.860
Yo, like the video, man, for the best chat ever.
01:47:31.020
You know just what to put in there as a backup in case they have an accident.
01:47:37.460
You know what they have for a snack and a dinner and a nighttime snack?
01:47:40.600
You can tell me the book you read to your daughters.
01:47:45.960
But you weren't here today lying about something else.
01:47:57.520
I saw her, took my breath away, and I never thought in a million years that could happen.
01:48:05.040
I never felt that way about anybody in my lifetime.
01:48:14.080
I actually just on her and I felt horrible for it.
01:48:18.960
And it was, I don't want to, I didn't hurt her.
01:48:29.340
This is the Chris that I knew would come out today.
01:48:31.880
This is the Chris who tells the truth because you're a truth teller.
01:48:33.960
I don't think this girl did anything to hurt anybody.
01:48:37.920
When you leave her out of it, I'll get back to your wife and your daughters.
01:48:56.940
You know, the chiropractor got no, the chiropractor got no chiropractor, man.
01:49:01.560
I didn't know, like, what I could, I know, Chris, in the interview today, you weren't
01:49:09.620
You were asked about, that was, I was holding back from last night.
01:49:19.580
We knew about Mickey, and so we didn't need to ask you about her in the polygraph.
01:49:26.520
And so, that's why we didn't ask you, because we knew the answer, okay?
01:49:32.080
Someone said the irony of his breath away comment.
01:49:46.220
It should have been the happiest time of your marriage, okay?
01:49:51.580
You and Shanann, it should have been the happiest time.
01:49:54.600
She's making a little money, she's making good money.
01:49:56.640
You're making great money, you both have a job, you have beautiful kids, you have a
01:50:00.420
beautiful house, you're in Colorado, clean air, good people, okay?
01:50:08.900
This should have been a time in your marriage where you guys were happy and thriving and
01:50:14.980
And I believe that Shanann's the reason none of that happened.
01:50:18.520
This is called the how and why solution, a technique that allows the suspect to admit
01:50:23.160
a lesser act and blame the victims, while at the same time minimizing the crime and motivations
01:50:33.940
Maybe doesn't listen to you as much as she should.
01:50:35.480
I think that she can do whatever she wants and you can't.
01:50:42.160
I used to do this a lot, guys, when I was an agent myself.
01:50:44.260
Like, if I caught someone smuggling drugs or something like that, I'd be like, listen,
01:50:47.000
man, it's not like you killed anybody, you're just moving some dope, it ain't that big a
01:50:55.460
I think if you were to go to a restaurant, she would order whatever the hell she wants.
01:50:58.740
It's hard to minimize, though, when a guy killed his family.
01:51:01.460
And as soon as you order a nice steak, she says, well, buddy, it's because you're a good
01:51:08.080
And I think that she started on the path to leave the marriage.
01:51:13.420
It's ironic that we're talking about you and Nikki.
01:51:16.060
I think that she was the one who started on that path first.
01:51:27.660
The other thing I think is interesting is, even though she is that type of person that's
01:51:33.640
controlling, doesn't listen, does what she wants, is walking away from her kids, here
01:51:41.300
Because to your core, you want to take care of the people you love.
01:51:47.500
And that's the reason why we want to give you an opportunity today.
01:52:36.320
Can you understand that some of this just doesn't make sense to us?
01:52:41.580
How is it possible that a woman and two kids are just completely gone off the face of the
01:52:52.200
I did nothing to those kids or her to make them vanish.
01:52:56.560
As the interrogation goes on, the constant and relentless psychological pressure essentially
01:53:01.680
puts Chris at the edge of his ability to function cognitively.
01:53:05.020
It's a slow and methodical process of breaking down his resistance while maintaining a balance
01:53:09.620
of pugnacious and reassuring psychological techniques.
01:53:12.760
I just find it hard to hear you talk about having this emotional, you know, conversation
01:53:21.020
with Shanann and you're bawling and crying together and you have not shed one tear in two days
01:53:34.920
I help me understand that because I don't get it.
01:53:38.200
You're these are your baby girls and you have not shed one tear over them not being around.
01:53:49.800
Chris, I lose my four year old in the store for 10 seconds and I start to go panic, panic.
01:54:05.420
And I'm sure a bunch of you guys in the chat that have kids or it might be parents, mothers, fathers, etc.
01:54:09.900
You guys understand, you know, the panic of if you can't find your kids.
01:54:13.380
So you guys already know that this guy's an L actor to another degree.
01:54:17.560
I would never do any of this because I haven't shed a tear.
01:54:22.940
Don't, don't look into that like I don't love my kids or my wife.
01:54:29.540
You're crying with your wife that you're leaving her.
01:54:32.640
But you don't cry that you're two little babies.
01:54:43.140
In the next moments, you will see step seven of the Reed interrogation technique known as the alternative question, where the suspect is given an alternative and far more morally acceptable choice for what happened.
01:54:57.040
And the Reed technique, guys, is a very old law enforcement style of interviews where it's not really as practiced as much now, but a lot of agencies still utilize it.
01:55:10.280
But you wouldn't know because they didn't leave the house.
01:55:13.720
Did Shanann do something to them and then did you feel like you had to do something to Shanann?
01:55:28.060
The only way they could have left is in your truck.
01:55:39.640
Something happened in the house that you know about.
01:55:42.060
We know that something happened to all three of them.
01:55:45.440
But I want to know, did something happen to these baby girls first that you had to take into your own hands and deal with?
01:55:56.000
There's something that happened to these baby girls.
01:56:07.920
We have no doubt you love these girls with all of your heart.
01:56:22.220
Let's hit 2,000 so we can hit almost 90% engagement, guys.
01:56:24.800
Again, it's really important for the YouTube algorithm to get the likes up on the video.
01:56:33.700
Like I said before, y'all don't go to donate a dollar.
01:56:35.320
The only thing I ask is like the video, subscribe to the channel, comment below for the algo.
01:56:49.300
It's what we do with those mistakes that make us who we are.
01:56:55.540
Chris, it seems like you're thinking about her right now.
01:57:11.020
I feel like that's the type of guy that you are.
01:57:17.320
Chris, this is a weight that's going to be on you for the rest of your life until we resolve it tonight.
01:57:21.300
Unless we can talk about this more tonight, we're going to follow you forever.
01:57:28.320
I promise you, when you start talking to us, you will feel better.
01:57:37.380
This is a very critical moment in the interrogation, guys.
01:57:40.640
Chris, you took them out of the house with their blankets and their animals.
01:57:54.840
And you either cleaned up after Shanam or you made the mistake.
01:57:59.060
So you can see here they're utilizing two different types of techniques here.
01:58:05.660
They're going to throw in a dossier technique here very soon where, hey, we already got information on this, et cetera.
01:58:12.860
I want to believe that maybe Shanann did it and you felt compelled to fix this so Shanann didn't look bad.
01:58:49.980
I just can't talk to my dad if I can't fool across the country.
01:58:57.280
If we brought your dad in here, would you please tell him what happened?
01:59:01.200
And you need to realize that your dad is not going to stop loving you no matter what you tell him.
01:59:06.000
Very interesting technique that they're utilizing, man.
01:59:17.340
And this is not the last chapter in anyone's story.
01:59:21.680
Hey, Chris, we're going to let you have however much time you need, okay?
01:59:35.520
And this polygraph failed it, failed it there, because there's too much emotion.
01:59:47.560
Anything else you want to tell me what's going on?
01:59:52.680
When we have that conversation that morning, it's, you know, it's emotional, and it's total
02:00:03.780
thoughts, reparation, and everything like that.
02:00:33.380
I need y'all, before we continue this on, because we're about to get into some interesting stuff
02:00:46.920
Again, I hate doing this, but you guys never like liking the videos, man.
02:01:04.080
And then also, I'll hit these chats real fast, because this is a very important part
02:01:09.380
It goes, I know it's super old, and there isn't footage of the guy, but H.A.
02:01:19.200
Marin, have you heard of the baseline killer from Arizona?
02:01:26.180
Just like the video on my TV, iPad, laptop, and phone.
02:01:28.620
City boys, we have shout out to you, my friend.
02:01:32.740
Log in from other accounts, guys, and just like the video.
02:01:37.160
Detective of Notre Dame probably homie hopped that whole apartment.
02:01:43.320
Jerome, if I was a politician, I would allow professional fighters three minutes with criminals
02:01:46.560
like this, put it on pay-per-view, and tax it, everyone wins.
02:01:54.740
I know it was a money laundering case with Irv Gotti and Ken, the Supreme team.
02:01:59.120
I'll probably have to do both of those together with the Supreme team.
02:02:06.660
That was a rap-hip-hop group, or music label down here.
02:02:14.000
As you all know, the father's in the interrogation room now, and they're talking.
02:04:31.480
Remember guys, the detectives are watching this interview
02:04:57.060
His son is going to prison for the rest of his life
02:05:57.780
Because they don't want him to lawyer up at this point
02:11:10.900
We need to get Abdul with the rocks on this one, man.
02:11:40.900
So it sounds like, I mean it feels like to me, now we know pretty well how to go get him.
02:12:08.660
Put my family down, put my dad down, put my mom, sister, nephew, niches, friends, co-workers.
02:12:29.660
When you see a shenan choking, strangling for you.
02:12:41.660
Because they want to get a solid groundwork, right?
02:12:43.660
Locking him into a story even though it doesn't make sense because they know when they find
02:12:56.660
She's actually too bad and they're blue and limp.
02:13:00.660
I've never seen something like that in my life.
02:13:04.660
I mean she's just like way over, like nothing was, she wasn't moving at all.
02:13:15.660
After the baseline information of Chris's version of events is gathered, he is now locked
02:13:20.660
into an alibi and timeline of affairs that forensics will subsequently examine and dissect in ways
02:13:29.660
The tone of the interrogation then reverts back from information gathering to a confrontational
02:13:38.660
I know a lot about psychology and as far as like what people are thinking.
02:13:46.660
Most parents will never even want to fathom that their kid is dead.
02:13:52.660
Even if their kid's stiff blue in bed and stiff like been dead all night, they still call
02:13:57.660
an ambulance to see if someone can revive their child.
02:14:02.660
When they, when the ambulance gets there and they're like, gosh, their kid's been dead
02:14:09.660
And parents are like, what are you, why are you not doing something?
02:14:14.660
So I just, that's why I want you to explain to me like what was going on in your head and
02:14:18.660
The phrase I felt for what she, what she did and just took over.
02:14:25.660
I just, I would hate for Shanann to get a bad rap if she didn't have anything to put in.
02:14:36.660
There is no technical term for this approach, yet it's a clear attempt by the detective to
02:14:41.660
interconnect to the suspect's sense of morality, which is always under the assumption that
02:14:46.660
So you're good with the public knowing that Shanann killed her daughter?
02:15:02.660
Are you okay with the public knowing that Shanann killed her daughter?
02:15:10.660
Again, referring to the kids as these girls, these kids.
02:15:20.660
But what it looks like is that you found a new life.
02:15:25.660
And the only way to get that new life was to get rid of your old life.
02:15:31.660
Yeah, you wanted to keep smashing that girl without any problems, man.
02:15:35.660
And I think that you killed these girls before their mom came home and then killed her man.
02:15:45.660
They said Chris pleaded guilty to these exact charges two months later.
02:15:49.660
That's what we have to believe because it just doesn't make sense.
02:15:52.660
I mean, to her point, if I walked in and my kid was decapitated, I'd call an ambulance.
02:16:18.660
Had his kids still, had his wife, had the side piece.
02:16:21.660
But this guy had to be a simp and go all the way and hit him with the-
02:16:36.660
This monster on the shelf, I just want this young hot girlfriend.
02:16:40.660
So I'm gonna kill everyone and hope it works out.
02:16:45.660
So, I think we're very, very close to the truth, but not hysteria.
02:16:54.660
So what's gonna happen when their cause of death comes back to you?
02:17:02.660
I'm 100% positive it's not gonna come back to me.
02:17:05.660
And what happens when a coroner looks and says it sees your fingerprints on her head?
02:17:16.660
Why take their bodies out of the house and bury them?
02:17:47.660
If this dude was aware, he could have made that chick, his side chick, had his wife,
02:17:52.660
you know, or just been honest, yo, I want to have other chicks.
02:17:57.660
You guys are gonna see here that a bunch of chicks were actually simping on him when he went to prison.
02:18:11.660
Like, he could have easily, like, done this and had two girls and been able to, like, make it happen.
02:18:15.660
Since he was a simp and he didn't understand female nature, he thought, oh, I just gotta get rid of my wife so that I can be with this other girl.
02:18:27.660
He really thought women deserve more, so that's why he ended up doing this dumb stuff.
02:18:42.660
Colin Coran goes, dude is gonna die with a 3.0 kill per death ratio.
02:19:11.660
Yo, I may have been playing too much Call of Duty, bro.
02:19:21.660
I'll never forget, I was doing the Jeffrey Dahmer case.
02:19:24.660
And you know how he makes the people watch The Exorcist with him?
02:19:29.660
Like, Jeffrey Dahmer, before he kills his victims, he makes them watch The Exorcist.
02:19:34.660
Someone in the chat put, yo, he brought the dude over for Netflix and kill.
02:19:57.660
Yesterday when you were talking, and again, this is before we kind of got to this moment
02:20:11.660
We were talking, you said, I don't know where they are.
02:20:16.660
And then you said something along the lines of whatever happened to him, this act of pure
02:20:23.660
This is the evil that I saw when I walked behind this man and she was on top of the city.
02:20:41.660
So after we look at their bodies, we're going to have a lot more questions.
02:20:56.660
But if you're willing, we'd love to talk to you then too.
02:20:59.660
Now that we know what we know, we're going to check that you don't have any weapons on
02:21:12.660
Cause remember he came in voluntarily guys, which is also very stupid.
02:21:16.660
Never talked to the police voluntarily guys without a lawyer present ever.
02:21:22.660
I'm not going to go in the stall with you, but I'm going to go with you.
02:21:27.660
We'll make a decision about how the rest of the night goes.
02:21:30.660
Oh, no, they already know that he's going to get arrested.
02:21:32.660
That's why they're not letting him go to the bathroom by himself or anything like that.
02:21:50.660
This interrogation was a true testimony of how mental fatigue can restructure an individual's
02:21:58.660
Chris maintained his innocence even after the failed polygraph.
02:22:02.660
And if he had kept that stance, he would have walked out of that police department as
02:22:07.660
Yet after a prolonged state of isolation, anxiety, and fear, coupled with the cerebral influencing
02:22:13.660
tactics of the interrogators, the alleviation of getting out of that situation was in that
02:22:18.660
moment perceived as enough of a luxury to exchange his freedom for it.
02:22:25.660
So that they can get on camera footage, have him come in and make it right in case he makes
02:22:38.660
any other incriminating statements so that they can record it.
02:22:41.660
Uh, and real quick, uh, here's the arrest guys, the warrantless arrest affidavit.
02:22:57.660
Um, for it, uh, James Matthew right here being duly sworn upon oath.
02:23:01.660
Let me go ahead and enlarge this for y'all real quick.
02:23:04.660
And can you pull up some of the groupie stuff, by the way?
02:23:06.660
Um, Angie, that the girls were going crazy for this guy.
02:23:09.660
Um, sworn oath says that there is probable cause for the warrantless arrest of the above
02:23:14.660
named defendant for the charges stated above, and that the following facts were true or
02:23:17.660
correct to the best of his or her knowledge information and belief supports the arrest
02:23:21.660
Um, and you guys can see here tampering with the deceased body three counts and then murder
02:23:29.660
Uh, and then it just goes into the, all the facts, right?
02:23:32.660
Um, and this warrantless arrest affidavit, what they probably did guys was after the confession.
02:23:37.660
We'll go to the bottom here on a 14, approximately seven detective bomb hover learned bun hover
02:23:43.660
learned that Shannon nor the girls had returned to the residence.
02:23:46.660
We requested an immediate press release to be issued and initiated assistance from the CBI
02:23:50.660
and ultimately the FBI to the investigation revealed.
02:23:52.660
Chris was actively involved in an affair with a coworker, which he denied previous interviews.
02:24:01.660
She said that she wanted to talk to the police and they interviewed her.
02:24:21.660
Uh, um, yeah, like a web website that has like all the documents of the case is 2000 pages
02:24:32.660
So this is his excuse that we got for an interview.
02:24:34.660
Chris said that he went into a rage and ultimately strangled, uh, Shannon, uh, to death.
02:24:38.660
Chris said he loaded all three bodies onto the back of the, uh, his work truck and took
02:24:42.660
an oil side identified a survey 319 with GPS coordinates, et cetera.
02:24:46.660
Chris said he buried Shannon near the two oil tanks and dumped the girls inside the oil
02:24:50.660
Chris was presented an aerial photograph of the tank battery area and identified three
02:24:52.660
separate locations in which he placed the bodies, which we showed you guys earlier.
02:24:55.660
Um, prior to Chris confession, investigators arrived at survey 319 with consent to initiate
02:25:01.660
Approximately 4 15 PM investigators spotted a bed sheet in the field near the tank battery.
02:25:06.660
The sheet matched the pattern of the several pillowcases and a top sheet cut recover from
02:25:10.660
a kitchen trash can from Watts residents early that day.
02:25:12.660
That search, uh, that search was conducted with prior consent provided by Chris.
02:25:17.660
The drone search also revealed fresh movement of dirt consistent with the clandestine grave near
02:25:24.660
And then bam, he went ahead and got this signed on, uh, on the 16th of August.
02:25:30.660
So a couple of days later, they went ahead and got this arrest.
02:25:32.660
So they arrested him and then they got, uh, filed this after David.
02:25:39.660
Um, did you have, uh, anything you want to share real quick?
02:25:41.660
Oh, and then here's the house real quick while Angie pulls up his groupies.
02:25:44.660
Um, this is the house where the murder actually occurred guys.
02:25:46.660
Uh, house of horror for sale, uh, Colorado home where Chris Watts murdered his wife and kids
02:25:51.660
is secretly listed for $660,000, but buyers must prove they have the funds before, uh, touring
02:25:58.660
to avoid it turning into a true crime fan destination.
02:26:03.660
A lot of this happens a lot of times in real estate where people just want to go ahead
02:26:06.660
and just get a tour and take pictures and stuff.
02:26:07.660
So they actually bought the house for three $300,000.
02:26:25.660
The Frederick, Colorado home where Chris Watts strangled his wife pregnant Shannon to death
02:26:29.660
The five bed, four bath property was secretly listed last week for $660,000 under a fictitious
02:26:34.660
Watts and Shannon purchased the home for in 2013 for 400 K and now died to be 800.
02:26:40.660
The agent offering limited showings of the home to buyers with funding commitment letters
02:26:45.660
for six 60 interested parties are required to submit their offers and bank commitment letters
02:26:50.660
The home was listed for auction in 2019 after Watts defaulted on the mortgage and the bank
02:26:55.660
Uh, no one bid on the property and it has remained vacant since the Watts family lived
02:26:59.660
Watts is serving multiple life sentences for killing Shannon and their daughters, Bella
02:27:17.660
Um, so he ended up pleading guilty on November 6th.
02:27:23.660
Uh, the death penalty was not put forward by a district attorney on the request of Shannon's
02:27:28.660
They were supportive of his decision to accept the plea deal on November 19th.
02:27:35.660
He was sentenced to five silent life sentences, three consecutive and two concurrent without
02:27:39.660
He received an additional 48 years for the unlawful termination of Shannon's pregnancy
02:27:43.660
and 36 years for three charges of tampering with a deceased body.
02:27:47.660
His sentence began immediately on December 3rd, 2018.
02:27:50.660
Watts was moved to an out of state location due to security concerns on December 5th.
02:27:55.660
He arrived at Dodge Correctional Institution, maximum security, uh, prison and, uh, Wapun,
02:28:00.660
Wisconsin to continue serving his life sentence.
02:28:06.660
And then here on November 30th, 2020, Netflix released American murder.
02:28:09.660
The family next door, a documentary about the murders.
02:28:11.660
Documentary features archival footage, including home video, social media posts, text messages,
02:28:16.660
2022, the true crime and SKY and D published a single called Chris Watts based on the Watts
02:28:44.660
So Chris Watts may be serving three life sentences.
02:28:48.660
Hit control plus so they can be, uh, enlarged so the people can.
02:28:57.660
Chris Watts may be serving three life sentences for the murders of his pregnant wife and two
02:29:01.660
Um, but this has stopped some fans from sending him love letters in jail.
02:29:06.660
So according to ABC seven prosecutors have released dozens of letters that have been
02:29:10.660
sent to Watts with one woman in writing in my heart.
02:29:17.660
If you do write me back, I'll be the happiest girl live.
02:29:30.660
Another sent her note saying I have found myself thinking a lot about you.
02:29:39.660
Unfortunately, even though he did a reprehensible thing, he became famous because of this case.
02:29:49.660
Ted Bundy, the night stalker, uh, Jeffrey Dahmer.
02:29:51.660
They all had a bunch of girls showing up at their, uh, trials.
02:30:03.660
Um, for this family right here, family of five.
02:30:07.660
Uh, and then I was saying, I found the documents on the case.
02:30:10.660
You fight, you guys can find the, the whole optopsis for the three victims there.
02:30:19.660
This is the, you can find the texts with the wife.
02:30:37.660
I highlighted this because after the murders, they talk on the phone for like a phone call.
02:30:50.660
When, you know, when he got the interview that he was a snickering.
02:30:54.660
So that night, uh, they called, he called, he called the, the mistress and he told her
02:31:02.660
And she started like looking up and she started deleting all texts.
02:31:08.660
So what I'll do is I'll put this for y'all down below.
02:31:10.660
If you guys want to see him texting his girl, uh, you know, after the murder.
02:31:15.660
The texts here, they, she'd be having like sketchy texts.
02:31:19.660
Like, I don't know, like, and cops trace text messages.
02:31:29.660
Do you know, a Scott Peterson's that that's a serial killer too.
02:31:36.660
And she was looking up like what happened to a Scott Peterson's why a mistress, because
02:31:51.660
But other than that guys, um, hope you guys enjoyed that.
02:31:58.660
Uh, guys, if we get to 2100, I'd really love it.
02:32:01.660
Um, we got 2177 watching right now, but I'm going to put timestamps below.
02:32:04.660
I'll put the link below as well with all the, um, all the text messages.
02:32:11.660
No, I'm just wanting to say that this is the exact example for family.
02:32:21.660
Oh, matter of fact, you know, let's take a poll with the people since where you guys
02:32:24.660
So you guys go ahead and get the ability to choose this.
02:32:31.660
So according to, uh, FBI agent, former FBI agent, people.
02:32:39.660
People responsible for killing their families are always white males in their theories.
02:32:44.660
Everybody I think about it is, I mean, Murdoch was older, but definitely a white male.
02:32:50.660
And, and most of these, of these killings, like family killings happen before August, before
02:33:00.660
Uh, so guys, you guys want us to cover Murdoch or BMF?
02:33:08.660
If you guys want us to cover Murdoch, two in the chat, if you guys want us to cover BMF.
02:33:19.660
One for Murdoch, two for black mafia family, AKA Big Meech.
02:33:57.660
I'm going to put this poll up right now for y'all in the chat.
02:34:05.660
I might spell Murdoch wrong, but you guys get the point.
02:34:23.660
And also while we do this, like the video guys, please.
02:34:28.660
Let's get this thing up to almost a hundred percent engagement.
02:34:33.660
This can cause some of y'all haven't hit the light thing.
02:35:17.660
I'll give it another, um, I'll give it another one or two minutes.
02:35:26.660
Cause I do want to see what y'all actually want.
02:35:40.660
I just want to see what I, what I need to do first.
02:35:47.660
It's going to be probably end up being, uh, 60, 40, 60, 40 is what it's
02:36:02.660
I'll read the chats real quick while we wait for that to finish.
02:36:04.660
We got, uh, Sephiroth goes, did Chelsea get booted from the boys club?
02:36:08.660
He's at, he should have called Lester, the two 40 lifestyle.
02:36:12.660
Could y'all check out the monster Florence case from Italy?
02:36:14.660
Does that one ever come, come across your side?
02:36:24.660
Um, dude went from working the oil field to Tyrone getting the petroleum
02:36:30.660
He's probably in, uh, to be honest, guys, he's probably in isolation.
02:36:38.660
When you, when you get it like a high profile case like that, the defendant almost never
02:36:42.660
Uh, family of five bought the house in November, 2022.
02:36:48.660
I don't want to play with you anymore to his wife and kids.
02:36:52.660
What the US case isn't a crime of passion, a thing.
02:36:55.660
Uh, when a father choked his friend to death, when he caught the man graping a seven year
02:37:01.660
That could be a possibility, but we know that he killed his, his, uh, children.
02:37:10.660
Have you done an MLK or JFK assassination breakdown?
02:37:16.660
Uh, I will be covering it with, uh, the JFK situation with Ryan Dawson.
02:37:27.660
Has there been any killers in history that have been that vigilante type?
02:37:31.660
Uh, not that I could think off the top of my head.
02:37:41.660
So what it looks like white and black pinstripe candies.
02:37:51.660
And then let me make sure I didn't miss anyone else's chat.
02:37:54.660
It looks like Feta and BMF are still fighting here.
02:37:56.660
Um, it looks like BMF is the winner, man, is what it looks like.
02:38:01.660
I'll give it another few seconds here, unless, you know, uh, Murdoch can get, pull off a
02:38:06.660
big one, but it looks like it's going to be BMF is going to be the next case that we
02:38:14.660
Um, um, you guys, you, some of you were asking if, if, if it was possible that the
02:38:19.660
wife who killed the kids, it was not because she actually fought for her life.
02:38:36.660
The, the, the, the, the mom probably died first.
02:38:39.660
And then, and then she killed, um, I think it was the older child.
02:38:44.660
And then she killed the little one who actually asked like, what was she do?
02:38:56.660
She saw the murder of her, of his, of her sister.
02:39:02.660
And that probably made him say even more so that he's got to get rid of all witnesses.
02:39:10.660
Uh, guys, it looks like we're going to be covering BMF next then.
02:39:19.660
Um, we've been going now for two and two, two hours and 40 minutes.
