Convicted murderer Chris Watts is said to be getting tons more prison mail from enamored women following the premiere of the Netflix documentary American Murder: The Family Next Door. In case you’re unfamiliar with the case, Watts not only killed his pregnant wife Shannan but also their two young daughters, Bella and Celeste, in 2018. Apparently, murdering your whole family is sexy to some women!

- What on earth is there to like about this man? Watts, who’s currently serving out his life sentence at a Wisconsin prison, has received “a lot of letters” following the documentary release, according to a People source. Many of these letters are said to be from women who “thought he was handsome and felt a lot of compassion for him.” Yikes.
- He’s now said to be in regular contact with several of these women. “Despite what he did,” the women are happy to be in touch with him, and Watts is said to have been all too happy to reach back out to his bizarre fanbase. “He had nothing better to do, so he wrote them back. And he started having penpals. A couple of them stood out, and they’ve kept in contact,” the source claimed.
- Not all of the correspondence he receives is positive. The source insisted that while many women (and men) seem to be accepting of what Watts did to his family, that’s not the case for all the letters he receives. “Some of the letters are angry. A lot of them are from people of faith who want to pray for him. But then he gets letters from women who want to connect with him, you know, romantically. He responds because he doesn’t have anything better to do,” the source continued.
- Women, we need to raise our standards. In no way is Chris Watts a sympathetic character, nor is what he did understandable, excusable, or forgivable. Shannan Watts didn’t “drive” him to murder her, their unborn child, and their two little girls. He did it because he was a selfish psychopath. Stop confusing abuse and violence for love, for goodness’ sake!
