He denied doing anything wrong for a while after they were reported missing on August 13, 2018. He even insisted to <a href=\"https:\/\/perezhilton.com\/chris-watts-letter-alleging-mistress-involvement-pregnant-wife-daughters-murders\/\">one of his mistresses<\/a>, <strong>Nichol Kessinger<\/strong>, that he never \u201churt\u201d his family before his arrest. However, Chris later pleaded guilty and confessed to the crimes. He admitted he strangled Shanann in their home in Colorado before dumping her body at a job site at the oil company he worked for. He then suffocated his daughters to death and stuffed their bodies in the oil drums.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/perezhilton.com\/michigan-man-kristopher-karolkiewicz-who-murdered-entire-family-allegedly-having-an-affair-with-intern-reddit-posts\/\"><strong>Related: Michigan Man Who Murdered His Entire Family (Including Pets!) Was Allegedly Having An Affair\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But before the horrifying murders, he had been cheating on Shanann with not only Nichol but a Colorado hairdresser named <strong>Amanda McMahon<\/strong>. She is now opening up about what happened with Chris eight years after his arrest.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview published with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.com\/crime-desk\/article-15980449\/chris-watts-second-mistress-secret-lover-colorado-amanda-mcmahon.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><em>Dailymail.com<\/em><\/a>\u00a0on Tuesday, Amanda said she met Chris on <strong>Tinder<\/strong> amid her divorce and custody battle. And after a few weeks of flirting and texting, they agreed to meet in person in the parking lot of a local <strong>Chick-Fil-A<\/strong>. It was there Chris claimed he was separated from Shanann and going through his own messy custody battle, as his wife was using the kids against him. Of course, Chris was lying. He was still married to Shanann. They weren\u2019t even separated when he met up with Amanda.<\/p>\n<p>Despite his supposed complicated situation, she thought he had been confident and sweet, which she now realizes hadn\u2019t been genuine:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cLooking back on it, I could tell any kind of sweetness he had was very fake. I won\u2019t say forced, because he was able to turn on the charm for anything he needed\u2026but something about him felt off.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But Amanda said she still invited him to her apartment nearby. While at her place, they decided to watch a movie \u2014 <em>Shutter Island<\/em>, specifically. And she didn\u2019t choose it. He did. A chilling choice when you consider the thriller is about a man who kills his wife after discovering she murdered their kids. And even more chilling when you learn Chris told police he only strangled Shanann because he supposedly saw her kill their daughters. Obviously, investigators figured out he was lying.<\/p>\n<p>Soon, the pair started to hook up, which Amanda said began consensually but took an unsettling turn when he became extremely aggressive. She alleged to the cops that he pulled her hair, put his arms around her neck, and attempted anal sex in what she described as a \u201crape fantasy.\u201d Amanda added to <em>Dailymail.com<\/em> that she had been scared he would hurt her in that moment:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cHe had just this animalistic fury come over him. He just went into like a zone. He just didn\u2019t look the same in his eyes. In the snap of a finger, he went from normal to crazy \u2013 like brutal, almost. I remember just kind of being scared to really say anything. It happened way too fast, and it threw me off.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"highlight\">So scary\u2026<\/p>\n<p>When police arrested Chris in 2018, Amanda told them that she only had a \u201cfast and furious,\u201d one-off fling with him in the spring of 2018 that left her \u201cshaken and feeling dirty,\u201d and that was it. Now, however, she\u2019s revealing she didn\u2019t tell the full truth. Amanda alleged to the outlet that they actually had been in a relationship for months \u2014 starting way before 2018!<\/p>\n<p>According to Amanda, they began seeing each other around April or May 2017. She insisted they met up only a handful of times between then and early 2018 and that they only had sex on at least two other occasions. During their time together, Amanda claimed Chris would ask for her prescription opioids so he could get \u201cmessed up\u201d:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI had my own prescription that he would essentially beg for things out of. It seemed he wanted to get away from something or numb himself\u2026 and honestly, I was trying to forget things too, so I understood where he was coming from.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Amanda said she never \u201cused\u201d with Chris nor saw him take the pills she gave him, but he asked on at least one occasion if she had access to any \u201cuppers\u201d like Adderall, which she didn\u2019t. She also claims he\u2019d trash talk Shanann to her, calling her a \u201cf**king psycho\u201d and a \u201cgold digger.\u201d The mistress continued:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cHe would say the most awful things\u2026 talking her down and making her seem like a horrible, unstable person\u2026 say[ing] he wished she\u2019d work and complain that he had to support her. Any shot you could take, he took\u2026 he just did not like that poor woman.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Amanda claimed she can\u2019t remember much else about her meetings with Chris due to her own opioid use at the time. She shared, though, that their relationship came to an end in March 2018 after she decided not to contact him again after changing her phone number. She grew tired of his constant complaints about his marriage to Shanann, requests for drugs, and texts at all hours of the night. And she wouldn\u2019t see Chris again until months later when he appeared on the news begging for information about his missing wife and kids. We all know what happened from there.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back on that time, Amanda cannot help but now feel terrified over her encounters with Chris:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s pretty terrifying. I got me thinking, if his M.O. is to just kill, it would\u2019ve been easier to take me out to get that itch scratched. But I\u2019ve had years to think about that, and obviously he wanted to have a new life\u2026which is obviously more complex in that aspect. He\u2019s just sick. Maybe he was suppressing his urge to hurt her. And judging by how he was with me, I can see how he\u2019s capable of going into that animalistic mode. It\u2019s a terrifying thought.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Wowwww. Amanda is truly lucky to be alive today following her disturbing interaction with Chris.
