Chris Watts, a Colorado man, infamously murdered his pregnant wife, Shanann, and their two young daughters, Bella and Celeste, in August 2018. Initially, Watts reported them missing, but later confessed to strangling Shanann after an argument and subsequently smothering his daughters. He disposed of their bodies at a worksite related to his employment. The case gained widespread media attention due to the shocking nature of the crimes and Watts' eventual guilty plea, resulting in multiple life sentences without parole.
