What American Murder Taught Us About The Chris Watts Case

It's a safe bet that this Netflix documentary, which focuses on the gripping disappearance of Shanann Watts and her two young daughters in August 2018, is already on every true crime fanatic's list. Here's what we learned about the Chris Watts case from American Murder: The Family Next Door.

The details of this case are extremely disturbing. Some viewers may find this story upsetting.

One of the most disturbing aspects of American Murder: The Family Next Door is the fact that immediately before Shanann's disappearance, she was blessed with what most families would treat as some good news. She and husband Chris - who already had a 4-year-old named Bella and 3-year-old named Celeste - were expecting their third child. According to various reports, sometime between May and June 2018, Shanann surprised Chris with a pregnancy announcement and filmed his reaction for social media. That resulting video, where Shanann dons a shirt emblazoned with the phrase, "Oops ... we did it again," has now been widely circulated across news reports and social media.

At the time, it seemed like the couple had been trying for another child. The clip clearly showed Chris laughing.

The expecting mother later gushed about her husband on Facebook, where she called him, quote, "the best dad us girls could ask for."

This was just two months before Shanann went missing. According to August 7th text messages obtained by Oxygen, the expecting mother revealed that Chris had changed his mind about welcoming a third child, writing:

"I don't feel safe with him after what he said about the baby."
