在怀孕的妻子和两个女儿失踪后,克里斯托弗·瓦茨站在自己位于科罗拉多州的家的门廊里,向记者们哀叹他有多么想念他们。
After his pregnant wife and two daughters disappeared, Christopher Watts stood on his porch in Colorado and lamented to reporters how much he missed them.
他说,他渴望那些简单的东西,比如告诉他的女儿们该吃晚饭了,盯着她们看动画片。
He longed for the simple things, he said, like telling his girls to eat their dinner and gazing at them as they curled up to watch cartoons.
他向丹佛电视台KMGH透露:“昨天晚上,我家里的每一盏灯都亮着。我希望我一到门口孩子们就会向我冲过来,但是一切都不在了。”
"Last night, I had every light in the house on. I was hoping that I would just get ran over by the kids running in the door, just barrel-rushing me, but it didn't happen," he told Denver TV station KMGH.
但就在上周四,瓦茨却因涉嫌杀害家人而被逮捕。当局未提供具体的作案动机。
Last Thursday, Watts was in jail after being arrested on suspicion of killing his family. Authorities did not offer a motive.
警方称,34岁的尚安·瓦茨的尸体是在阿纳达科石油公司发现。阿纳达科石油公司是该州最大的石油和天然气钻探公司之一,也是克里斯托弗·瓦茨曾经工作过的地方。
The body of 34-year-old Shanann Watts was found on property owned by Anadarko Petroleum, one of the state's largest oil and gas drillers, where Christopher Watts worked, police said.
上周四下午,调查人员又发现了4岁的贝拉和3岁的塞莱斯特的尸体。
Investigators found what they believe are the bodies of 4-year-old Bella and 3-year-old Celeste nearby last Thursday afternoon.
随后,几名高层消息人士透露,这两名女童的尸体是在石油和天然气罐中找到的,这些罐体大部分都是满的。他们认为瓦茨之所以把尸体藏放在里面,是为了避免路人经过时闻到尸体的气味。
Several high-ranking sources told that the bodies of the two young girls were found inside oil and gas tanks that "were mostly full." They believe Watts placed the bodies of Bella and Celeste in the oil and gas tanks in order to conceal the smell from passersby.
33岁的克里斯托弗·瓦茨因杀害自己的妻子以及女儿塞莱斯特、贝拉而被指控犯有三项谋杀罪。他被拘留在科罗拉多州的弗雷德里克市,这是一个位于丹佛以北28英里的小镇。
Christopher Watts, 33, is charged with three counts of murder in connection to the deaths of his wife Shanann, who was 15 weeks pregnant, and their daughters, Celeste and Bella. He was taken into custody in Frederick, Colorado, a town 28 miles north of Denver.
这家人的邻居乔·比奇表示:“我不知道他为什么想杀了自己的妻子和两个孩子。两个孩子都很好,我不知道他为什么这么做。这场谋杀根本就毫无意义,并且他们马上就要迎来第三个孩子,因为他的妻子已经怀上了一个男孩。”
"I don't know why he would want to kill her, the wife and the two kids," said Joe Beach, a neighbor of the family. "Like I said, the two kids were nice kids. I don't know. To me, it's a senseless murder, and she was looking forward to that third child. Because she was pregnant with a boy. "
