Nichol Kessinger Googles Shanann Watts: The Truth

March 16, 2019 No Comments

Nichol Kessinger Googles Shanann Watts in 2017 According to Cell Phone Records was she involved?

Records show Chris Watts’ mistress Nichol Kessinger Googles Shanann Watts in 2017, nearly a YEAR before her & Chris began having an affair. Is this the sinister truth- or is the explanation simple? We found out.

“SHE DID IT! Phone log says Nichol Kessinger googles Shanann on September 1 2017. She’s been STALKING Shanann Watts but said her and Chris weren’t dating for long. Yeah rite!! They’ve been dating and planned this for a year she knows everything and needs to be in jail for the rest of her life!!!!!” –Marissa C., YouTube comment

Chris Watts’ mistress Nichol Kessinger is currently on trial. No, it’s not happening at the Weld County Courthouse in Colorado where her boyfriend was sentenced. It’s taking place across the internet- in comment sections of news articles, posts on Reddit & YouTube videos. In the Court of Public Opinion, and as long as you have WiFi, you too can serve as judge and jury.

Nichol Kessinger dated a married man, and she knew he was wed. According to Kessinger’s 2018 police interviews, Watts told her he and his wife Shanann Watts were separating and planned to divorce. Later in his 2019 interrogation, Chris confirmed this, admitting he lied to Nikki about being separated and divorcing (we’ve been in the process of typing the entire five hour interview- if you’re interesting you can read the Chris Watts Confession Transcript here).

Despite this, a vast amount of true crime followers don’t buy it. They are extremely vocal about their position that not only did Nikki know that Chris was taken man, but she was involved in the crimes. Of course, cheating isn’t right, and it’s absolutely not out of the realm of possibility that she knew more about the actual status of his relationship than she admitted in an attempt …

Tammy (CBI): And what were you so angry at Shanann about? Like, if you could pinpoint it?

Chris: Nothing that makes anybody want to do this. You could be angry at your spouse like your whole life but you should never have done anything like this. You should never let it get to that point. I let it get to a point where I’ve never— I mean, I’ve never been angry before- and this was like the epitome of being angry. The epitome of showing a rage. The epitome of of like, losing your mind.

Grahm (FBI): Ok. So exactly what did you say and what happened?

Chris: So when I woke her up, and was like hey we just gotta talk, I just told her I don’t feel compatible. I don’t feel like this is gonna work. Can we cancel the trip to Aspen? Cuz she booked a trip that week to go to some mystery four star luxury hotel or something.

Shanann Watts Letter to Chris Watts Revealed

February 20, 2019 No Comments

Before Shanann Watts left on a weekend work trip to Arizona, she took time out of packing and preparing to write a heartfelt letter to her husband, Chris Watts. She carefully crafted sentences expressing her love and sharing all the little things she appreciated about Chris, while noting growing concerns about her husband’s distant demeanor and reluctance to stand up for his daughters after a recent family problem.

When Shanann Watts shared a photo of the letter she wrote through text with her friend Sara, she didn’t know this would be the last letter she would ever pen. She didn’t know that during the time she was putting ink to paper, trying so hard to find words that would resonate with her husband and motivate him to make their marriage a priority, that he was transferring risqué images of his mistress to a hidden app on his phone. Chris Watts was living a double life, trying to meticulously hide an affair from his 16 week pregnant wife. But what Shanann did know was that something wasn’t right- something had changed, and she planned to do everything she could to try to fix the relationship with the father of her children and the man she vowed to love and cherish until death do them part.

Recently a 2000 page Discovery document from the Watts case was released publicly, detailing the investigation from day one. The report shows just how through the inquiry was, filled with police notes, interview transcripts, and Shannon and Chris Watts’ phone and text records and conversations. Over the next few days, Crime Lights will be diving into the report and discussing interesting aspects of it to give a clearer picture of exactly what investigators uncovered.
