CAUGHT RED-HANDED
Killer dad Chris Watts looks on in horror as sees neighbour’s CCTV footage of him loading his murdered family’s bodies into truck
THIS is the moment killer dad Chris Watts is confronted with his neighbour’s security camera footage showing him loading bodies on to his truck.
Watts can be seen struggling to keep his composure as he is shown video, part of which shows him backing his pickup truck up to his garage, before he loads up and drives off.

The brute had lied to police hours after murdering his pregnant spouse and smothering his two little girls to death in their beds at the family home in Colorado.
The 33-year-old had told detectives that he had been at work on that day and that his missing wife Shannon had run off with his daughters Bella, aged four and Celeste, three.
But the video shows no-one leaving the house on August 13 — except for Watts himself.
As he releases this he can be seen on a police body cam throwing his hands on to his head as he starts to become visibly nervous, perhaps realising the game was up.

The video was to then be used to draw out a confession before he was formally charged with murdering his family.
But while he admitted murdering them, he refused to tell police where the bodies were hidden.
An investigation, however, found he had buried Shanann in a shallow grave and dumped his daughters' bodies in tanks at the oil and gas exploration site where he worked.
Last week cops released harrowing pics of the bloodied underwear of his wife who was 15 weeks’ pregnant with their third child at the time.
